Just finished watching this!

Just got back from the movies and the first thing that immediately came to mind. I presume that Jenny Kord's father was "white", like her aunt (played by Susan Sarandon). But she looks fully Hispanic. Or Latina. I always get those mixed up. The real life explanation would be that the actress is obviously Brazilian. But in universe I would assume that she probably inherited her genes predominantly from the mother's side of the family. Or maybe she wasn't Ted Kord's biological daughter. Not being insensitive. Just making an observation!

I appreciate your interest. To be honest. It wasn't anything special. Just your typical superhero blockbuster film. I barely recognized him the beard and the long hair. He left himself go! 😁

I appreciate your interest. Just your typical superhero blockbuster film as I mentioned to the other poster.

Some critics said that the inclusion of the very involved family really elevated the movie's wow factor. How did you perceive that?

I really don't know, if I'm going to be honest. Superhero flicks aren't my cup of tea. I was invited to see it by a distant cousin/childhood friend who's visiting over for a couple of weeks. So I figured "what the hell!"

Sorry if that wasn't the answer you were looking for.

But I will say this! It was filmed in Puerto Rico but for some reason the actors were Mexican. How come no one is complaining about that? 😁

That is indeed surprising. We need to investigate that.

You paid way too much attention to her complexion than anything else on the film.
