You are completely wrong on that scene. Yon Rogg is witnessing that scene in real time when he gets out of the ship. From the first missle fire to when they blow up..Its almost 40 seconds of time. So does he see things in slow motion as well? It is about 5 seconds from first missle fire to the rest being fired from multiple ships at different distances. Not to mention it does keep moving forward for a few more seconds. When she grabs the first missile to when she throws it back is around 10-11 seconds.Carol is a beast. Not going to deny that but she does not have combat speed on par with Superman. Her fight with Thanos proves that.
If you do a little bit of analysis, reality is quite another.
First, let's consider two things:
1. We saw the same ballistic missiles striking Trofa in matters of seconds! I personally counted 4 seconds!
2. Slow-motion isn't a 'must' for characters to have super-reflexes.
Slow motion is only a tool to give effect! The fact that Marvel doesn't use slow motion in his fighting scenes doesn't mean that their characters lack super-reflexes. This is a massive misconception many in this forum have!
Again, we've seen the likes of Thor, Captain America, Spider Man, and many others to easily dodge and block things like bullets, energy attacks, etc! The fact that those scenes possess no slow-motion effects, like the ones DC has, doesn't mean the heroes have normal human reflexes! That's pure nonesense right there!
Now, let's move directly with Carol!
We saw that her scene with the missiles was way longer than the scene at the beginning of the movie, where the same ships and the same type of weapons were demolishing Trofa's surface in matters of seconds!
Does that mean that the missiles were moving slower in Earth? You'll have to prove that!
However, you might ask me to prove otherwise, well here it is:
Earthly Ballistic Missiles
Reentry vehicles reenter the Earth's atmosphere at very high velocities, on the order of 6–8 kilometers per second:
So, Earthly ballistic missiles move when in reentry at speeds of about [COLOR=crimson]mach 18 to mach 23![/B] '
Any normal human being being pushed at those speeds would have their sight's blured!!!!!
The Kree Empire is one of the most advanced races in the MCU, having galactic capabilities! Are you suggesting that those missiles are slower than Earthly ones!?
So, after considering that, I don't think it's insane to thing that A)Those missiles were moving as fast as the beginning of the movie and B) Captain Marvel would still need super-reflexes to stop them!
Also, you forget that Yon Rogg isn't a human being, but a Kree! As most peak Alien races, he does possess super-human reflexes!
[B]So, cut the "Carol has no super-reflexes" nonesense once and for all
