I swear Spiderman No Way Home is cursed for me. Twice since it came out I actually had tickets and twice I couldn’t go. I got to admit the second time this weekend, I probably could have forced it, but I just wasn’t feeling it anymore.
As to the first time occasionally I miss those long ago days when I would have said, eh, it’s just a sinus infection and been on my merry way.
If you are going to get me to like a character all you really have to do is have them save a dog (or any animal really) and I’ll be rooting for them forever.
Actually I liked Kate Bishop before that but it was a plus and while I thought the first two episodes felt a little off it was nice to be back to a grounded realistic version of Marvel Land after Loki, Shang-Chi and, the should have been about Thena and Gilgamesh, Eternals.
So after the Spiderman No Way Home trailer I ran into a bunch of on-line “hot takes” that were like oh, I can’t wait for Tobey’s Peter to drag Tom’s Peter! Oh it will be fun to see him smack him around…
And naturally I was like wait what?
But it all of course came back to Tony and the idea that Tobey’s Peter (let’s call him OG Peter) would drag Tom’s Peter (let’s call him Marvel Pete) for being friends with Stark and taking the tech.
And naturally I thought no, no, he wouldn’t but I rewatched the first two Spiderman films to see if my thoughts held up and I came to some interesting Spider related ephihanies.
We made it to Black Widow!
Finally Natasha Romanoff gets her own movie and also finally… we get to see it! Overall I enjoyed it very much but I can’t help but think she deserved a stronger entry into the Marvel canon and also maybe Marvel TV is ruining things for me.
SPOILERS BELOW!
Well we got a teaser trailer for Marvel’s Eternals movie and while I’m not as enthused about this story I am interested that this may be Marvel’s biggest gamble.
At least in terms of character origin stories.
Plus I want to be enthused I really do.
Marvel released a sizzle reel kind of trailer for phase 4 (and a celebration of movies) yesterday and while it all looks good I have some questions about recent news and just musings on the future of Marvel. I’ve narrowed it down to 5 major questions.
This post obviously talks about the trailer but also some casting news. All public so no spoilers unless you’re avoiding everything completely.
Well Disney moved Black Widow back to July 9th and even doing that it’s still going to day and date it which means customers choice it will also be available on Premiere Access Disney+.
Up until this point in the MCU Sam Wilson’s character has kind of made me sad. Probably because his character has mostly been based on STEVE.
And wings.
But mostly Steve.
Episode 8 Previously On was a great emotional episode. But I have some questions leading into the finale and of course one finale theory on where Doctor Strange is…
SPOILERS! SPOILERS! SPOILERS!
As much as I enjoyed Jame’s white board of audience questions (and him and Darcy being our stand-in’s) to me the humor missed one very important question I think anyone in universe would have…
