And Spider-Man #1 asks Dr. Strange to make it so everyone forgets him, under the express understanding that this will prevent other universal adversaries will stop coming to the MCU ... Spoiler Doesn't it stand to reason that Peter Parker Maguire and Peter Parker Garfield will be forgotten in their universes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Well, shit. My daughter forgot that her half-brother has some sort of award ceremony tomorrow and she has sworn me not to go see this before she does. We'll probably go see this sometime around Christmas. Staying unspoiled will be a full time job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Just here to say I love all the Tom Holland/Zendaya stuff that's come out of this, what an adorable pair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume that the spell only applied to that specific Peter, otherwise that would cause pretty significant madness in the multiverse. Some asshole at a restaurant was loudly describing certain key scenes in the movie during lunch today, so I was glad I had already seen it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less of a Christmas movie than Die Hard, doesn't even have the decency to play a big chunk of a Christmas song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 I saw there was debate over Iron Man 3 being an Xmas movie. I guess Feige said it was, but D+ did not put it on their Xmas Playlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 How much were they trolling the fans, when Elektro was getting upset about Garfield-Parker being a white guy, and how there wasn't a black Spider-Man anywhere to be seen? Like, they know we all love Miles, and they put that in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The endgame for Tom Holland's Spidey has to be a passing of the torch to Miles, tbh. Curious how people feel about it. Andrew Garfield got such a great reaction at my showing, but the Amazing Spider-Man films were that well received. I never paid much attention, but did people really like him as Spidey? It seems so. His role in this reminded me of Brandon Routh getting a second shot to play Superman to kinda redeem a film that wasn't received well.

AxB Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 I think they purposefully had Andrew turn up before Tobey, so he would get the "They're really doing it!" pop. And then Tobey could get the "I liked your movies Tobey" pop. I'm not saying people disliked the Garfield spideys, but when Holland's Spidey was first unveiled there was a big feeling of relief that they were finally doing it right.

Log Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 I’m wondering if the ending of this was a way to sort of “separate” Spiderman from the MCU? I don’t mean that he totally exists in a different universe now, but like the Avengers won’t come calling if they need help anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narratively, it finally allows them to move him away from Stark too. I think there will be some MCU connective tissue, like having him face Kingpin at some point. If the next couple of films don't start setting up Miles though, they are screwing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Terrifying prospect, but with a little under $600M worldwide while omicron is all over the place what are the chances someone actually takes a crack at a sequel for either Andrew or Tobey?

AxB Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) Who is even in The Avengers now? Steve and Hawkeye are retired, Tony and Nat are dead, Thor is off Planet and Hulk has a knackered arm. Who is left, Wanda? Bucky and new Cap?

Bruce's arm was still in a sling in the Shang-Chi mid- of post-credits scene. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLaw Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 I’ve never seen the Amazing Spider-Man movies, and this one made me tempted to do so. Probably not going to do it though. Spider-Man 2 and Homecoming are two of my favorites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarl Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I think most everybody enjoyed Garfield as Peter Parker in the Amazing Spider-Man movies, especially the chemistry between himself and Emma Stone, despite the movies themselves not being that great as Spider-Man movies. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 So, am I the only one that has an issue with the spells? The first spell, Strange was just going to wipe the fact that Peter was Spider-man from everythings. So, why in the climax did Strange have to basically wipe any trace of Peter even existing outside of Spider-man from this Universe? That seemed a bit overkill and, whilst kinda on brand for Peter's martyrdom, seemed too excessive. Like, not even fucking Mephisto wiped Peter out of existance in the comics.

RandomAct Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 May go see this flick again this week, because as much as I enjoyed all the pops in the theater, I want to take it in with a more subdued reaction. Keep thinking about the Tobey/Doc Ock interaction and how wholesome it was. "How are you Peter?" ".....just tryin' to do better." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a few years, they can basically create an all-female Avengers based off the original six if they wanted. Jane Thor, Ironheart, Captain Carter, She-Hulk, Kate Bishop and Yelena. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
