get me off this crazy thing

I figured, but it's worth the emphasis. :) Consider what that scene is showing: a normal girl, no superpowers, standing up from normal and routine knock-downs. It might feel over-played to us (though, honestly, I teared up almost as much as during the Stan Lee montage), but there's nothing like it in any other superhero movie. Even Diana's childhood scenes were the experiences of a goddess being trained as a warrior.

And now my daughter wants all the Captain Marvel things. I don't know if I can afford this.
