The MCU"s Latest Movie Repeated A Major Infinity War Mistake But Made It Worse
Summary
Captain Marvel, Monica, and Ms. Marvel work together to try to stop the Kree villain Dar-Benn, whose goal is to steal natural resources from planets across the galaxy to save her home world from dying. One of the planets Dar-Benn targets is Aladna, wanting its water. Dar-Benn launches a full-scale attack on Aladna's people, and the three heroes must fight to stop her and save the planet before it's destroyed. The heroes are at a distinct disadvantage because Dar-Benn has intertwined their powers, causing their bodies to swap every time they're used. Aladna's fate then repeats that of another planet in Infinity War.

Aladna's Fate In The Marvels Is Worse Than Xandar's In Infinity War ![]()
Despite her best efforts, Captain Marvel is forced to leave Aladna behind, presumably to be destroyed by Dar-Benn off-screen. This is the second time she does this in the movie, following the first when she fails to save a Skrull colony from Dar-Benn's wrath, and the movie shows its devastating collapse. Aladna's demise happening off-screen more closely resembles Xandar's, the home planet of the Nova Corps, which previously housed the Power Stone. To acquire his first Infinity Stone, Thanos invades Xandar and completely decimates it, which, though not shown in Infinity War, is later confirmed in the movie.
While both instances are devastating, the destruction of Aladna is even worse than Xandar because its fate is left open-ended. Audiences can reasonably assume that the planet was destroyed, considering Dar-Benn had the technology to steal its water, and she invaded with a powerful army that Aladna's more peaceful, musical planet had weak defenses against. This open-ended fate becomes even more alarming when considering that Captain Marvel was revered and considered royalty on Aladna, so the implication that she was not able to save a planet that loved her so much is even more heartbreaking.
How The MCU Can Fix The Marvels' Aladna Mistake![]()
In order to fix its mistake, The Marvels needs to address Aladna's fate in a future MCU project, whether that be with Captain Marvel herself or with Monica and Kamala. The third Captain Marvel movie, for example, can involve her revisiting Aladna to assess its damage or mentioning that it was destroyed and her coping with the impact it has on her. Of course, Captain Marvel has witnessed the destruction of other planets before, but because Aladna specifically has such a personal connection for her, it would be inappropriate for the MCU to write it off as another loss.
Kamala could also discuss Aladna's fate in her next MCU appearance. She was visibly shaken by the amount of death she had to witness during her travels with Captain Marvel, and once she returns to Earth, she is invigorated to form her own superhero team, laying the groundwork for the MCU's Young Avengers. The Young Avengers project could include Kamala mentioning how what happened to Aladna and the Skrull colony shaped her as a hero, which would be an appropriate way for the MCU to pay respect to the planet after The Marvels failed to do so.
