Captain Marvel and Goose Funko Pop!s

Captain Marvel’s Goose gets the Full Funko Treatment

The feline Captain Marvel scene-stealer is more than meets the eye

Almost everyone loves movie animals. They’re usually cute and they often do neat tricks. Unless it’s absolutely required by the narrative, most filmmakers also know not to kill a pet or risk losing the audience. Some of the most fun, on-screen creatures turn out to be much more than the average animal, endowed with the ability to speak or do some other remarkable thing. In Captain Marvel, everyone keeps telling Nick Fury that Goose is more than a cat, but he’s too preoccupied with how adorable (and normal-looking) the feline is to pay much attention.

Having already put out a full line of character-inspired Pop!s before the film’s release, Funko waited a week before announcing this delightful spoiler… though depending on your location, it took a bit longer to hit store shelves.

    When rising horror master James Wan introduced audiences to Annabelle in 2013’s The Conjuring, it instantly rose to the ranks of Good Guy (a.k.a. Chucky) and the Poltergeist clown on the list of all-time creepy movie dolls. This film was immediately followed by a standalone prequel — the second film set in the universe of Ed and Lorraine Warren — which began with the same tale related about the doll in the first picture and an origin story involving Satanists. And now we have Annabelle: Creation, the fourth set in the universe and a prequel to the prequel.

  • ‘The Breadwinner’ trailer paints an empowering hand-drawn story (Includes first-hand account)

    While most people consider animated films to be happy-go-lucky pictures about cute creatures on relatively epic adventures, looking more closely at many of these movies reveals they often also address some serious issues. If one looks even further beyond the mainstream releases from Disney, Pixar and Illumination, they’ll find a number of beautifully animated films that address some adult subjects; and there isn’t necessarily a moral to the story. The medium also lends itself to making certain stories more accessible to wider audiences. The Breadwinner appears to be an example of all these things.
