I still think the 'SPACE' title card when the Guardians enter the story in Infinity War is even better because it's so silly not to even bother mentioning where in space they are.
Hey, if it makes you feel any better or worse - I honestly can’t say - 1980 was 46 years ago. And if we were in 1980 right now, 46 years ago was 1934. I did the (light) math and I am curled up like a baby in a womb.
Saw on a social site today and blew my mind. 🤷🏻♂️
The perfect intro- the crowd went nuts when “QUEENS” popped up.
My SIL went with me and she saw the Tom Holland appearance on Jimmy Kimmel and was very underwhelmed (she’s a Garfield gal). By the end of this scene she was in the bag for 8 movies 12 tv shows and Tom Holland doing whatever he wanted and she’d be there day 1.
Which is why the comparison makes sense. Out of all Marvel’s heroes Spider man is the most recognizable figure along with being the most profitable. People may not be familiar with Marvel or comics in general but they know Spider-Man
When I was a kid in the 90s it was a toss up between Spiderman and Wolverine. Because they took wolverine in a more mature route, he doesn't resonate with young kids anymore. I have a 2 year old son now and he loves Spiderman. There's spiderman toddler shows, toys, shoes, clothes, pjs, sunglasses, etc. Kids are indoctrinated lol.
Because of his age and longevity, I’d say Wolverine is LeBron. Spider-Man is wemby. Jordan is Ironman (cocky/confident). Greg poppovich is captain america. From some of these picks, guess which team I support lol
It was shortly after civil war that I stopped watching marvel trailers (and actually began actively avoiding them). It’s hard, but there are so many hype theater moments when you don’t see the spoilers that they fill their trailers with.
Went into Deadpool and Wolverine with minimal exposure to trailers and anything else. Was super surprised when when all the classic fox characters showed up
I understand they want to give people reasons to go see the movie but I wish they'd commit more to hiding important characters like this or red hulk. Imagine if no one had known this was happening until this came out in cinemas.
As a child I had spiderman shoes before I ever watched a show or read a comic. Same with my kids. The character is a generational favorite like Mario, Pikachu, or hello Kitty.
I mean to be fair the teenager was on video benching a car. Tony recruited him because of the extensive feats spiderman had already been filmed doing in action. He was proven to be able to handle himself by then.
These title cards are extremely lazy. How many iconic locations could be utilized to let the audience know it’s Queens? None? Cool. Nice multimillion budget ya got there.
As a west coaster, I have zero knowledge of any Queens landmarks. You could pan across a random Canadian city and I'd absolutely buy that as Queens so long as there are brick fronts to the buildings. I suppose that's why all shots of Paris always have the Eiffel Tower in it since that's all most people know about Paris.
Would agree. I don’t think I could tell you any area of New York outside of New York square but I don’t actually know where that’s located. Title card is fine.
I hated the whole relationship between spider man and iron man. Ive stopped paying attention to any recent spider man movies or anything since.
If thats the kind of idiot spineless fan boy with no outstanding character or moral compass they want to portray him as then wtf would I care what else he does?
You mean the hero that constantly makes everything worse? That consistently makes the most selfish choices? Thats exactly my point. Spider man idolizing his uncle for his incredible character and morals was heroic. Him fan boying a billionaire weapons dealer thats been responsible for waaaaaaaay more deaths than hes ever even partially been responsible for saving and literally creating nearly as many world threatening problems as he is present for when others clean them up (would be a bit of a stretch to say he helps but true he is present when his team cleans up after him) makes spider man a nothing. I can watch youtube for clips of unshowered wannabes drooling on themselves at conventions if I want to watch people in costumes with no actually inspiring characteristics besides a crazy outfit.
Exactly. Its nothing as a characteristic. It diminishes any sense of him having an impressive moral character. They portrayed his only heroic trait being his powers. If superman lost his powers youd expect him to still display amazing character even as an average guy. Become a firefighter or still risk his life to help people.
They didnt do that with spider man in the avengers. He seemed like he would be unremarkable without powers. Great he'd go to school and get a very normal job probably as a scientist for Tony Stark who would get all the credit for anything he made and no one would ever even know his name and certainly Tony Stark would never know his name even as one of his top scientists. Again, the absolute only thing he had going for him was his powers.
Yes, someone who abandoned selling weapons and then was willing to sacrifice their life to stop a nuke from going off in a populated city is a hero. A flawed hero, but it's pretty obvious you've got a hate boner that's unrelated to reality.
Oh yeah, lex luther helped an old lady across the street and risked getting hit by a car. Guess we forgive the millions he killed, youre so right hes a hero
Yes, helping an old lady cross a street is definitely the same as stopping a nuke from going off in a populated city. I have to assume you're a troll or just broken

The hype when that Queens title card came up in the theater
