TwitterFacebook

The Captain Marvel marketing team is back on the nostalgia hype train with the release of five “Magic Eye” posters. 

These 3D optical illusions were first made popular through the Magic Eye book series known to pretty much any ’90s kid with a library card, and now continue to haunt those of us who could never see their hidden secrets in the first place.

‘Captain Marvel’ is (kinda) the Nick Fury prequel you’ve been waiting for

TwitterFacebook

It’s not quite the Nick Fury solo film we’ve been clamoring for, but Captain Marvel might be the next best thing. For now, anyway.
