John wick and Spider-Man are both really good

Boc @ 11/7/2019 21:32 hey you're WRONG I didn't think the jokes in this felt anything like the rest of the MCU (except for obviously Homecoming and maybe like IM3). But I was already a fan of McKenna's writing from his Community days so YOU’RE wrong. I really can’t believe you found this funny this just convinced me to never watch Community EVER!

ok woah woah woah Community is like 90% Harmon's baby but McKenna did co-write most of the best episodes. And he co-wrote Homecoming too!!

The Peter tingle jokes were probably the worst parts but TELL ME you didn't at least laugh at Martin Starr's story about his wife. I can't believe you hated the exposition scene too, it was so GLEEFULLY over-the-top/tongue-in-cheek

Light spoilers Zersch don’t read:

Everyone I was with was stonefaced the entire movie, I don’t think I chuckled a single time. I’m not trying to be a contrarian film cricket, I legitimately thought the humor was so rough and way different from Homecoming. I don’t remember Martin Starr’s wife story at all, you’d have to remind me. I do remember the kids cracking up when his camera fell in the water

The exposition scene was so awkward, I don’t know how to describe it. His motivations felt classic Marvel paper thin

I really think it’ll be such a forgotten and pointless MCU movie that we’ll all forget in two months but HEY! What do I know. I can’t believe it’s fourth best for you, it’s like fourth worst for me

I wonder how much of it comes down to setting? Cuz the group I was with was mostly loving it/there were no kids in sight/I was sipping on a Long Island throughout. But those latter two points were true of Captain Marvel which kinda sucked all the same so who knows

Spoiler	+
Mysterio's motivation was definitely thin, but I don't really expect much from Marvel villains at this point. Performance-wise and "ability"-wise I thought he was fun

I agree it'll probably be mostly forgotten, but I think that's also true of all Marvel movies save a select handful (p much the ones I'd rank above it). If I'm just looking for LIGHT FUN it's a movie I can see myself coming back to (p similar to IM3 in that way)

Honestly maybe, cause it was a terrible movie theater experience. I’m on vacation and the theater was PACKED full of groups of kids who wouldn’t stop talking throughout and laughed at the dumbest (Peter tingle) jokes

Might’ve had a lot to do with it. We may never know

Peter tingle was awesome and it was great every time it was used.

Yikes

It preyed on my nostalgia and manipulated my emotions

:coollegoguy:

I agree that the movie wasn’t amazing. I just like Spider-Man though. He’s always been my favorite superhero and also cuz he’s from THE CITY

I liked it. It felt like a Spider-Man film. And I'd watch it again.

not really a spoiler	+
If only just for clues to the post credits scene.

You missed nothing
