I don’t realize if it’s too soon to name a film set within the Nineties a “period piece.” Still, Captain Marvel’s entrepreneurs are doing their damndest to earn that label with a Comic Sans-tastic throwback internet site that recalls the times of Adobe PageMill and HTML 1.0.
It’s slam complete of extremely-dated capabilities, my favorite being the crummy RealMedia player embed (OK, so it’s “KREE PLAYER 1.0”) showing the reliable trailer at a 14. Four-killing 310×175 pixels. Play the “Kree or Skull?” multimedia recreation and don’t forget time while advertising on the web becomes a ludicrous novelty, now not the all-ingesting existence pressure an excellent way to spoil all of our jobs and usher in the coming of the machines.
Rainbow typefaces, 3-d text, clip artwork backgrounds,.Gifs might be animated in name simplest and, sure, a visit counter rounds out the dial-up motif. The handiest element I didn’t see was that “NeW!” header for all of these updates made 5 months in the past.
The website is both an homage to or a ripoff of Warner Bros. Nonetheless-extant Space Jam official page that is old enough to lease a car. You discern whoever sloshed this aspect collectively knew they’d be obligating Marvel.Com to host it for the subsequent quarter-century, so, well-performed, my dudes.

Correction: Astoundingly, a submit whose sole motive changed into to send humans to an internet site did not include that internet site’s cope with. That become high-quality, powerful, Owen. So, formally, it’s miles https://www.Marvel.Com/captainmarvel — or AOL key-word KREE. We now go back to “Mr. T Ate My Balls,” already in development.
