Anticipating Spider-Man: Homecoming (and then presumably Spider-Man: Prom)

he gets a full credit even, not a "with"

how the hell is he above Marissa Tomei lol

his agent shouted louder i guess

Did something happen to the UN secretariat in one of these movies?

I'd assume launching the MCU still has some cachet with the suits.

dragged to the underworld by the mole man iirc xp

Someone on the poster committee really wanted the Washington Monument in there, even in the most awkward spot.

washington monument has a very vocal agent

'fuck downey jr, this big marble bastard has been drawing crowds since 1848!'

What if Spider-man took over Tony's suit? What ... if ... ?

what if spider-man and tony were forced to spend a snowbound evening inside a single iron man suit? with sexy results

If the Iron Man suit is a rockin', don't come a knockin'.

This is the first time I've ever considered whether Tony Stark incorporates some sort of Fleshlight device into his Iron Man suits, and upon consideration it seems almost certain that he does.

Well, Tony Stark is a big dick, so ...

who among us would not build a fleshlight into a multibillion-dollar suit of armour, given half a chance

Am I the only one getting weird no one gives a fuck vibes around this one? Reviews inexplicably ran last week, so I figured it had opened already, but I guess it opens this coming weekend?

wiiiiild horses....

MU often lifts review embargos a week or two prior to open, not any different than their other flicks

if only there was an audience for Spider-man

Says he loves movies...

I think more than anything else the advertising for this seems to be "this is exactly what you'd expect" - wisecracking iron man and wife-eyed kid, if you liked the 10 minutes in Civil War then you'll like this. Some weird frisson at seeing Michael Keaton do this after Birdman is about the only thing?

So reviews ran for the last few Marvel movies in high profile places like the Times a week before opening day?

And yeah, there is an audience for Spider-man in the sense that there will always be an audience for spectacle. But wasn't the point of Sony going to Marvel that the last couple of Spider-man movies showed ... maybe there isn't as much of an audience as people thought? I guess we'll see!

the fact that the first fanboy reactions contained even mild criticisms indicates to me that this is going to be a total nothing

both of the last two did well but not well enough. ASM2 actually made pretty good money but it had a big drop in its second weekend, the reviews were bad and it was obvious the public was not feeling a surge of spideymania. sony must have been looking at the numbers for the raimi trilogy, which all did really well - the public loves spidey, so we're totally in shape to do avengers-level business as a kickoff for some whole stupid spidey-verse bullshit. in that sense, yeah, not as much of an audience as people thought. but there's no reason a good spider-man movie that makes people feel good and have fun wouldn't be a successful film.

this does look kinda fun and i do really like tom holland in the role but jeez even a spider-man dork like me thinks six movies and three spider-men in 16 years is pushing it a bit

Pretty close to a rave review in The Guardian (opens in the UK today)

still think not going with miles morales this time out was a mistake tbh

rumor has it that this film will have Spiderman performing the "cannonball dookie"

I am still back on "wife-eyed kid"

<punches his phone>

They need to make a movie that's like Spider-Man on the Loose or something. Just follows Spider-Man around a slow day where he fucks off and messes with people.

That was like half of Spiderman 3

I would take SM3 over any MUC movie tbh

*MCU

xxp I'm talking a little different than Spider-Man 3. More like Spider-Man's chain smoking on a dirty couch for 20 minutes. Or he becomes a subway panhandler, or he gets stoned and he uses his spider web to steal some guy's sandwich and soda.

Looks like someone's already making this movie, but for real

That version of Spider-Man needs to team up with the Hamburglar who was riding around Harlem throwing half-eaten burgers at people a few years ago. They'd probably have some pretty cool adventures.

SM3 is kind of a fun watch in a what the hell were they thinking way. It's infinitely preferable to the two Amazing Spider-Man movies anyway

they made too many movies too quickly is the main answer for why idgaf.

I assume the Venom movie will scratch your itch for 'spiderman-as-asshole' films?

I aint scratchin spidy's asshole

very happy with this movie
but i loved COP CAR so I kinda expected to

this was fun. kept appropriately low key instead of Extinction Level Event. though there were two beats that felt like the first Maguire Spidy.

madew $15M in previews last night, yeah they give those numbers now

i long for death

THIS is what makes you want to give up?

no, that was really Walter Mondale

Ah, the memories.

This was a Very Good Spider-Man Movie!

Easily the most entertaining of these Marvel flicks in a long time.

yeah, this was excellent. we've gotten 3 excellent comic book movies this year: Logan, Wonder Woman, and this. And the common thread through all of those is that they are more grounded in the human element than these films often are. This is by far the best Spiderman movie so far (I like the first mcguire movie and the first garfield movie well enough but this beats them, even if I like holland himself a little less than either of those guys).

and going back to the top message: yes it's good to see a lot of diversity in this cast. everyone from the best friend to the principal in the school. hoping zendaya gets more to do in the next one (which I assume she will, since it's dropped that she goes by MJ at the end of the film).
