You're probably right. Like I said, it was a little confusing.
Ewing's rendition of Monica is basically Monica with her original powers, albeit boosted considerably following the enhancements that Blue Marvel made to her at the molecular level. That is the version of Monica that I'd like to see, but I suspect they will curb her abilities somehow, or simply not show her performing at the level that many of us expect.
I would agree with this. Usually every champion gets a big "moment" in movies. But given that this is Captain Marvel 2 and not Spectrum 1, I don't expect Monica to outshine Carol...unless we get a surprise twist where Carol goes missing at the end of the movie, thus leading to a situation where Monica takes her spot in the next Avengers movie. I don't see that happening though.
You Know I have been reading much into the thread lately and the debating recation to both WandaVision, How Monica came out in the show and Wanda as well.
But Besides all that Debat about if chacters came out good looking to fans, Honestly I have seen mostly Postive Reaction to all the characters overall from the show and their profiles have greatly increased thanks to it in a Postive way.
But more important, just for me Personally Monica has now become more of a Top Tier character I want to Like more and to enjoy More thanks to her postive portray in the show.
Just from My View I Become More of a growing Monica Fan thanks to the show and now I want to see her on a Regular team Avengers book more then ever before.

Yeah, and I hope in future appearances un the MCU, she uses the full range of her powers, not just flying. Carol already does that
I wonder if they'll have her fly, or make it look more like she's teleporting when she's moving on Earth? The speed of light can circle the entire Earth about 7.5 times in under a second. Monica traveling a much shorter distance...like across a city block... would appear instantaneous to the human eye. Realistically speaking, she would look like she teleported, if not leaving the optical illusion that she's in two places at once. That said, I get that the CGI special effects crew will want some say in that and churn out some cool visual effects.
Yeah, I never really quite understood the flying thing in the comics, except for when Monica was travelling long distances in outer space or something. I just chalked it up to visual cues necessary for storytelling. The reality is long before Monica raised her arms to be in a flying pose, she'd already be where she was going. Even traveling from New York to Louisiana, it only takes her milliseconds. Just for fun, people should pull out a stop watch and see what you can do in the span of milliseconds. The answer: Not much.
