I will watch it just because they're bringing back all the other gangs.

Tobey Maguire Spidey, Andrew Garfield Spidey, Green Goblin, Doc Ock, and I've seen people claim you can see lightning (Electro), sand (Sandman), and the Lizard as well.

But I will admit the premise seems like bullshit. Dr Strange is supposed to be the Sorcerer Supreme lol no way he'd cast this spell that risked tearing apart the multiverse to make some people forget Holland is Spidey.

Yeah definitely odd behavior on his part. Either that's not strange or he's really being cocky and arrogant thinking he's got this which is what he was before he was Dr Strange.

They created a multiverse event because Peter was annoying and messed up the spell? What??

BWillie 08-24-2021 10:46 AM

Less Spiderman movies.

More Superman villain movies. I'd watch a movie about Lex Luthor, Zod, and a pre-quel with Jor El on Krypton if you did it right.

It's comics. Come on. They've run whole lines of comics on worse premise than that.

I'm guessing that was a sleight of hand for the trailer. Marvel is known to do this a lot, for example Thanos had lines in the IW trailer explaining his motives that didn't make the final cut of the movie. Watchers of Loki know…

That's where I fall. But I'm not into the lore or whatever with comics and only saw the first Spiderman. And I can't get past the first chase level of Spiderman on PS4 and rage quite a long time ago.

wazu 08-24-2021 05:33 PM

For me the version of Spider Man that made it into the Avengers movies was the JarJar Binks of the group. Just constant cringing awfulness every second he was on screen. Cannot imagine wanting to see a movie that actually revolves around his worthless, awful self.

They're realllly close to ruining a version of spiderman that people like. Tom saying dumb cheesy things non stop with an upward inflection gets kind of tiring. Not to mention the fact that they obviously don't trust him to carry a movie

Sassy Squatch 08-24-2021 07:00 PM

Welp, that trailer more or less confirms the entire synopsis of the film I'd read a while back. At least it's going to be awesome.

Dr Strange is arguably the smartest super hero in the MCU and has made some stupid mistakes on spells previously but makes an even dumber mistake that is catastrophic?

Yeah not exactly great writing

Chiefspants 08-25-2021 05:31 PM

You all are forgetting the sheer amount of times Marvel has put in misdirections like this in their trailers.

For Infinity War... Thanos: "This does put a smile on my face." That line, given on Titan in the trailers, would have made no sense in the movie since he just killed Gamora and was only in the trailers as a way for the audience to feel intimidated.

For Loki... Mobius (to Loki): "You picked up the tesseract breaking reality, we need your help fixing it." This was a huge misdirection. Reality was literally *fixed* in the first five minutes of Loki and they used the Infinity Stones as paper weights.

When Strange says "we created the multiverse" he could easily be talking about what they did in Endgame. Sure, it's possible it's lazy writing, but you should never ever take Marvel's plotting at face value in their trailers. Hell, they had Hulk in the fight in Wakanda in the IW trailers.

Rams Fan 08-25-2021 06:27 PM

So, basically this is The One More Day plot line.

I think the actor is great but I don't like how he became IM Jr. Spidey should be inventing his own gear and struggling with feeling alone. That sarcasm and wit despite all the depressing shit in his life. He doesn't give up - he doesn't bend on his morality.

It's also about being a kid and having to pretend to be an adult, surrounded by adult heroes, without the experience they all have.

And if they were going to do Venom they should have pulled that off while he was out in space. Golden opportunity missed there...

Marvel and Sony’s biggest fight right now is about Venom, according to rumors, anyway. The word is that’s why Sony backed out of their agreement with Marvel because they wouldn’t include Venom in Spidey 3. Word is that Marvel was… less than impressed.. with this incarnation of Venom.

Sony just doesn't want to give up what they see as their own personal ATM with a popular Marvel character, even if they are dicking up the product. Marvel comics have generally turned to trash as of late, but what Marvel is doing with the MCU is damned near unparalleled. We're talking Star Wars hype when Star Wars was THE thing in movies.

Sony needs to let Marvel have the remaining rights to whatever characters they have for a nice chunk of cash and future revenues, and let Marvel work their MCU magic on them. It will be amazing when the MCU finally has control over their entire collection of characters.

Spider-Man: No Way Home’ Trailer Shatters ‘Avengers: Endgame’s’ 24-Hour Viewership Record

:eek:

Spider-Man has turned the Avengers to dust — on YouTube and Twitter, at least.

Despite leaking online a day early, the teaser trailer for “Spider-Man: No Way Home” has set a new all-time record for the most global views in the first 24 hours, with 355.5 million views. That far surpasses the previous record held by the trailer for “Avengers: Endgame,” which picked up 289 million views when it debuted in December 2018.

According to Sony Pictures, the “No Way Home” trailer also earned the most-ever mentions on social media of any movie preview over the first 24 hours, with 4.5 million mentions worldwide. Domestically, “No Way Home” drew 2.91 million mentions over 24 hours, nearly doubling the 1.94 million mentions over the same period for “Endgame’s” trailer.


https://variety.com/2021/film/news/s...rd-1235048973/

Damn! So much for "super hero fatigue" I guess. Movie goers all over the globe are addicted to whatever cookie cutter/ assembly line shit that Kevin Feige is shoveling out these days. The MCU seems to be flat out unstoppable at this point. I for one am burnt out from it after being letdown by Endgame (the time travel elements were silly/stupid/ridiculous imo and took up too much of the run time, Hulk being completely worthless & neutered and Thor being a fat ass for cheap laughs. Just a lame film all around especially when compared to Infinity War ). I haven't even bothered with Disney + and their streaming MCU shows.

Anyways, this Spider Boy movie looks like its going to really pander to the hardcore fans by bringing back all of the old bad guys thru out the years.

Those are some bold words. Endgame was a perfect way to end the Infinity Saga, even if they had to introduce time travel. That was the only way they could make everything work. I also can't think of another movie that had the responsibility of wrapping up a 22 film story arc that lasted more than a decade.

And you're damn right they're pandering to fans. And I don't give a shit. Spider-Man 2 is the greatest super hero movie of all time and I do not care what anyone says. Alfred Molina being back is nothing but good news. Same with Dafoe.

I do agree with the take on The Hulk... that just pissed me off to no end that they made The Hulk such a worthless character in the movies.

Bowser 08-28-2021 03:01 PM

They had to throttle some of the characters, or else Thanos without the Gauntlet would have been toast. Thor, Dr. Strange, Captain Marvel and Professor Hulk would have ripped apart Thanos and his horde by themselves if they all hadn't been nerfed in some way. The Black Order would have been trouble, but hey, here's literally every other character to deal with them.

Infinity War and Endgame were as close to perfect as they could have given those stories while wrapping up the entirety of the Infinity Saga.

*brace for Rausch impact*

Hulk has a bit of the Superman conundrum going on - he just can't be beat. Thanos had the power stone when he Tyson'd him, so I'll accept that, but other than that it had to be a mental block between Hulk and Banner and then a transition to Professor Hulk (the least of the Hulk personas imo) to keep him from just wrecking the story by himself.

It sucks that we'll likely never get World Breaker Hulk, especially after watching him knock a fully powered Surtur back on his heels, but I'm ok with it. Thor is in this category as well, but maybe somehow they'll give us a glimpse of Rune King Thor at some point. :D

CoMoChief 08-28-2021 03:20 PM

Bowser posted what I was going to say below....

Hulk is basically unbeatable. He, like Superman, are boring characters as they suffer from basically have no real weakness(aside from Kryptonite).

What makes them both interesting is when you show the human/personal aspect of both characters.

The best Hulk movie that's ever been made is Ragnarok. Think about that for a moment. It's because of how Hulk's portrayed and he doesn't have to be the main character.

I have no qualms with his portrayal in Infinity War/Endgame. My biggest critique is Captain Marvel should have had a large role in Endgame or not used at all as she, along with Wanda, Hulk, and Thor, were the only ones who would be strong enough to go head to head with Thanos.


Infinity War/Endgame are just about as close to perfect on an ending to the Infinity Saga as possible. There's really no other movies to compare them to aside from trilogies. As much as I liked the Dark Knight Rises, it had severe plot and timing issues that made it far from perfect. Endgame doesn't have that.


I also just found out Disney+ will have all Sony Spider-Man films on it starting in 2022. Assuming that means Marvel and Sony continue their Spider-Man agreement, I have strong confidence the Spider-Man movies will be done correctly(as long as Sony doesn't meddle and destroy them).

Very good points and it was a comic book movie after all so you're right and probably know more about the stories better than I do so yeah they were going to have to introduce the time travel stuff eventually. I guess I've just never been a fan of time travel used in really any movie I've ever seen (I guess 12 Monkeys would be the only one I can think of that was impressive to me)
And yeah what Feige has pulled off is extremely impressive connecting over 20 MCU movies featuring so many different characters. That is hard as hell to pull off and I respect him for it. (even though I thought a lot of the MCU movies were subpar, same formula and overrated as hell by the general public but I'm glad they have brought joy & entertainment to the masses overall!) Respect. :thumb:

FTR, the MCU stones glow when they're used and the Power Stone didn't glow at all during Thanos' fight with Hulk. He just put a beating on Hulk solo dolo.

I'm on board with time travel being annoying. It's the easiest MacGuffin and widely overused.

Don't let this stop you watching the Disney+ shows. WandaVision has no time travel and appeals to different people in different ways. Started slow for me, while others absolutely loved the sitcom homage. Loki is just brilliant, both intriguing and full of laughs (Thor may not be a "funny" character, the God of Mischief should be causing chuckles).

Yeah I've only heard and read great things regarding WandaVision. The guy that directed that series is set to direct the new Star Trek sequel. I will eventually get around to seeing that series sometime cause Elizabeth Olsen is a talented & beautiful actress (Captain America agrees with me)

Vision has no problem resisting the glance, because Vision always remembers that Vision is married to Jennifer Connelly.

The Black Order would have been trouble, but hey, here's literally every other character to deal with them.

Infinity War and Endgame were as close to perfect as they could have given those stories while wrapping up the entirety of the Infinity Saga.

They've underpowered Thor from the beginning, so it shouldn't be surprising that they continued to do it. And Hulk has always been a problem creature to slot amongst the greats, partly because his powers get varied so much.

Hulk has a bit of the Superman conundrum going on - he just can't be beat. Thanos had the power stone when he Tyson'd him, so I'll accept that, but other than that it had to be a mental block between Hulk and Banner and then a transition to Professor Hulk (the least of the Hulk personas imo) to keep him from just wrecking the story by himself.

It sucks that we'll likely never get World Breaker Hulk, especially after watching him knock a fully powered Surtur back on his heels, but I'm ok with it.

I overall liked his Banner but they shit the bed on Professor Hulk. I could probably post 100 meme-worthy bits/splash pages from that run that Disney's Marvel could have played into.

And Thanos has taken down Hulk solo in the past. It depends which version but Prof-Hulk's strength grew so slowly he could have taken him. Personally I'll always wonder what could have been because Ed Norton is not only an awesome actor but actually looks like Banner. Hell, I'd love them to do the McFarlane Grey Hulk that had elements of horror in it. He was truly monstrous looking.

Edward Norton is definitely an awesome actor but its too bad he's known to be an all around smug prick & difficult to work with. I'm not surprised he wasn't brought back. He's just not worth the hassle and headache. Also, his acting career has pretty much flat lined as of late. He should be thankful that Wes Anderson still casts him in his films in supporting roles because that seems like the only director willing to work with them days. What a waste of talent.

There's rumors this could get delayed to 2022.

That's kind of an intrinsic problem with the superhero genre; the power levels of the characters vary wildly as the character is passed to a succession of writers over a half century and counting. I mean, Havok took down the Hulk solo as well and left him for dead in the desert, but I doubt anyone will put him in the top power tier.

The characters are never going to translate directly from the comics to the movies. I usually don't have a problem with it as long as they don't throw away intriguing characters as forgettable fan service (Angel, Emma Frost) or bad jokes (Shatterstar), or let some comics-illiterate movie executive warp them into something unrecognizable and awful (Dr. Doom).

Wouldn't surprise me. I've heard the same about Venom 2.

Hell, sometimes the characters don't translate from comics to other comics.
