Marvel finally released the first trailer for Captain Marvel, and it was everything we hoped it could be. We got to see Carol Danvers in action in her Kree uniform. We saw her kicking ass as a fighter pilot in the Air Force. And we even got a few looks at her iconic red, blue, and gold suit. Unsurprisingly, it is giving MCU fans and fans of the Captain Marvel comics a lot of feelings. So naturally, fans took to the internet to share how the trailer impacted their lives—including Captain Marvel herself, Brie Larson. She tweeted out the newly released poster of the film, along with a cute and funny message to her mom, and it’s just filled our hearts with so much joy.

But it wasn’t just Brie Larson who had big feelings about the movie. In fact, some fans were so overcome they just had to take to share how blown away they were by the trailer.
I would let @brielarson as Carol Danvers shove me down a hill and I would probably thank her. That’s how excited I am for #CaptainMarvel

Of course, with the trailer’s emphasis on female empowerment, several Marvel fans took to Twitter to express how excited they were for this huge step forward in the MCU, and how important it is to see female heroes represented on the big screen.

Okay I legit teared up at the #CaptainMarvel trailer? I didn’t realise how much it would mean to me to FINALLY see a female lead in the MCU. Like I’ve been waiting for it for so long and watching the trailer it was like…oh. So THAT’S what it feels like. ?

But beyond the huge steps forward, there were tons of little moments in the trailer that had people talking.

And while fans were excited about the shots of young Coulson and young Nick Fury, there was a shocking amount of excitement over the ’90s-tastic cameo from Blockbuster Video.
