      @@victoriabarclay3556 No, this was the Original Captain Marvel. It was from the 1940's created by Fawcett Comics. Mar-Vell is from the 1960's. It was 10 years after the Original Captain marvel stop publication and sold the Character to DC Comics. For years DC was suing Fawcett , claiming that Captain Marvel was a cheap copy of Superman. Fawcett stop publication in 1953.
      By the way, in the 1960's Marvel comics was called Timely. The second Captain Marvel was an android with the power to detach his limbs. It was from a minor publisher named MF Enterprises.
      Then in the 1968 when Timely change the name to Marvel, Roy Thomas and Gene Colan created Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell.) The character was a male military officer from the Kree Imperial Militia, turn traitor when he allies himself with Earth.
      In the 1980's this Captain Marvel died of cancer. But was replaced by a female earthling name Monica Rambeau. A police lieutenant from New Orleans Louisiana, who possesses the power to transform herself into any form of energy.
      Then in the 2012, Miss Marvel ( Carol Danvers) who got her powers from Capatin Mar-Vell from and explosion , started using the name Captain Marvel until this day.

    As someone who was raised on Jackie Chan movies and now is a big fan of the John Wick series, the stuntwork in these serials are equal parts gutsy and creative to a degree that still holds up. They don't have modern technology and techniques, but they used what they had to its maximum and then shot it really well. When you get right down to it, big flying tackles, dummy falls, piston pulls and breakaway furniture shots are still a lot of fun.

      Well no actually. His cape is small even in the classic comics. I think you are judging it by the typical Superman standard of the longer Cape. But Cap’s cape has always been a shorter shoulder cape draped over the shoulder. His design is based on a early 20th century operetta uniform.

      In one of the Edgar Rice Burroughs novels (I think it was Tarzan the Untamed or Trz the Terrible) Tarzan machine-gunned some German soldiers. But I guess that behavior was less surprising in Tarzan than in one of the flying caped comic book heroes. After all, Tarzan was a guy who also killed enemies with his teeth.

Billy Batson was a teenaged newsboy who needed a crutch, gaining his super powers from an old graybeard sage he'd met at the end of the abandoned subway tunnel he lived in. [in his comic book, anyway] who always managed to gasp out "SHAZ-UNGHH!" before getting knocked out by the bad guy but always managed to muddle through somehow. I'm 82 and I still love him.

    Wow..This is one of the films Lucas/Speilberg must have watched to get ideas for Indiana Jones..Very artsy beginning where the man
    is hitting the gong, right up the the camera's lens.....very addicting to watch.

      Actually during world War 2, because of gas rationing, and various other shortages, movies were about the only entertainment available. At the height of world War 2 about 90 million people a week went to the movies.

    I'm totally amazed about the quality of the film. Sure there are some lines and blotches now and again. I also like that the picture is clear too. The film stock must have been stored carefully.
    I never went to the Children's Cinema on a Saturday, but it reminds me of Saturday Mornings on TV in the 70s.
    Great fun.
