WELCOME TO THE MARVEL MULTIVERSE -*RIP STAN LEE & Boseman* - XMEN97 release 3/20

Watched Far from Home yesterday and I liked it a lot but it was missing something for sure..

The Mysterio twist I was waiting for the entire time..

I give it an 8/10 overall will definitely buy it when it comes out on blu ray :pimp:
 
Happy July 4th!

How overt the homage to Tony Stark is especially in the intro. The acronym of the glasses being a dig at the character despite his growth in the series. The fact that the film symbolically has Tom Holland trying to be the new RDJ. Surprising enough this film cost less to make than Homecoming and its a big part because of the subtraction of RDJ’s budget. If, more so when this film does a Billi, you’re going to hear a lot about how Tom Holland carried this film and how he is the new RDJ for the MCU
 
MCU can't stop, won't stop

Stan Lee reading the Mallrats script might be the greatest Stan cameo of all time. That and Tony Stank #TeamIAmSteveRogers
 
If Marvel wanted to they could hand the keys Thor and let him takeover. He easily could.

But Spiderman has the better stories to use.
 
HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS ON FAR FROM HOME. ALL CAPS ALERT. ALL CAPS BECAUSE THIS FILM IS AN ALL CAPS SITUATION.

I WILL BE FORTHRIGHT AND EXPRESS THAT I DID NOT HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS FOR THIS FILM. I ACTUALLY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE 'MEH'. I HEREBY ESTABLISH THIS STATEMENT AS AN EXPRESSION OF CONTRITION TOWARDS MARVEL STUDIOS FOR MY LACK OF FAITH IN THEM. I RESCIND MY BLASPHEMY

VERY RARELY IS THE TERM 'FIRING ON ALL CYLINDERS' USED IN THE APPROPRIATE CONTEXT BUT I WOULD ARGUE IN FRONT OF A UNITED NATIONS PANEL THAT SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME IS FIRING ON ALL CYLINDERS.

THE MOVIE BEGINS WITH "I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU" AND AN INCREDIBLY APPROPRIATE, THOUGHTFUL AND CLEVER USAGE OF COMIC SANS. IT'S USED TO INDICATE THAT THE MOVIE ITSELF EXISTS IN MEMORIAM TO TONY STARK. HE'S ON ALL OF OUR MINDS GOING INTO THIS MOVIE AND MARVEL KNOWS IT.

THE MOVIE INTRODUCES THE CONVERSATION BETWEEN BETTY BRANT (AMAZING WAY TO INTRODUCE THAT CHARACTER) AND HER COHOST IN ORDER TO PROVIDE CONTEXT FOR THE FUTURE OF THE MCU AND REASSURANCE THAT THINGS WILL BE FINE POST-ENDGAME.

BETTY BRANT TELLS HER COHOST (THE FANS) THAT IT'S TIME TO MOVE ON TO OTHER THINGS AND THE ERA OF THE PREVIOUS AVENGERS IS OVER.

THE CO-HOST (THE FANS) PROCEEDS TO PANIC AND ASK IF ANYONE HAS A PLAN. THIS CHARACTER ACTS AS A SURROGATE FOR THOSE VIEWERS WHO WONDER IF MARVEL CAN DO WHAT THEY DID FOR TEN YEARS FOR A SECOND TIME.

THIS MOVIES SERVES TO ASSURE US THAT YES, MARVEL WILL.

ZENDAYA WAS THE PERFECT CASTING FOR MJ. SHE IS OBJECTIVELY ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE - INSIDE AND OUT. SHE IS EQUAL PARTS CHARISMA, CHARM, DORKINESS, GRACE, INTELLECT, HEROISM, AND AWKWARDNESS, AND THESE SERVE AS PERFECT ATTRIBUTES FOR PETER PARKER'S LOVE INTEREST.

IRON MAN'S GHOST PERMEATES THE VERY ESSENCE OF THE FILM. HIS IMAGE IS EVERYWHERE, AND SOMETIMES IT IS SHOWN SO BRIEFLY AND QUICKLY THAT I HAD TO WONDER IF I'D IMAGINED IT. IT TAKES US INTO THE MIND OF A BOY COMING TO GRIPS WITH THE LOSS OF HIS FATHER FIGURE.

JAKE GYLLENHAAL'S PERFORMANCE AS MYSTERIO ONCE AGAIN SERVES TO PROVE THAT SPIDER-MAN'S BEST VILLAINS SHOULD ALWAYS COME WITH A TWISTED FATHER FIGURE VIBE. OSBORN IN SM1, DOCK OCK IN SM2 AND THE PS4 GAME, VULTURE IN HOMECOMING (IF ONLY BECAUSE HE WAS HIS DATE'S FATHER), KURT CONNORS. PETER IS DISTRAUGHT OVER THE LOSS OF HIS BIOLOGICAL FATHER, UNCLE BEN, AND TONY (IN THE MCU) AND THEREFORE LATCHES ONTO PEOPLE WITH THE POTENTIAL TO BE FATHER FIGURES - OR THEY LATCH ONTO HIM.

I WAS AFRAID THEY WOULD MESS MYSTERIO UP. AS SOON AS I SAW HIM FLYING AROUND AND SHOOTING LAZERS IN THE TRAILER I WAS WORRIED. BUT THEY GOT MYSTERIO SO PERFECTLY RIGHT. THEY UPGRADED HIS TRADITIONAL THEATRICS IN ORDER TO MAKE THE CHARACTER MORE CONTEMPORARY. NOW HE COMES WITH AN ENTIRE CREW OF TECHNOLOGISTS AND WRITERS, AND AN ARMY OF HOLOGRAPHIC DRONES THAT CAN AND WILL KILL YOU. THEIR INTERPRETATION OF MYSTERIO'S POWERS OF ILLUSION HITS THE MARK SO WELL. HE CAUSED SPIDER-MAN TO BE HIT BY A ****ING TRAIN.

SPEAKING OF SPIDER-MAN. MANY OF US WHO ARE FANS OF SPIDER-MAN ARE FANS BECAUSE WE RELATE TO THE CHARACTER OR SEE OURSELVES REFLECTED IN HIM. SPIDER-MAN AS A CHARACTER IS DEFINED BY HIS CONSTANT STRUGGLE TO KEEP HIS SUPERHERO LIFE SEPARATE FROM HIS REGULAR LIFE AND THE FACT THAT HE OFTEN FAILS - TO DISASTROUS RESULTS. HE IS YOU AND I, IF YOU AND I WERE TO PUT ON MASKS AND FIGHT MONSTERS AND ALIENS AND PSYCHOPATHS. A REGULAR PERSON WHO FEELS THAT HE'S IN WAY OVER HIS HEAD BUT KEEPS IT PUSHING BECAUSE IT'S THE RIGHT THING TO DO. MARVEL UNDERSTANDS ALL OF THIS

MARVEL EVEN ADDRESSED THE PERSISTENT GRUMBLINGS ABOUT HIS SPIDER-SENSE. WHEN AUNT MAY THREW A BANANA AT PETER AND HIT HIM I ALMOST BECAME ANNOYED. THEN AUNT MAY HERSELF WONDERS WHY HIS SPIDER-SENSE DOESN'T WORK AND WE END UP IN THE THIRD ACT WITH THE SINGLE GREATEST SPIDER-MAN FIGHT SCENE.

THIS WAS A GOOD MOVIE. THE MORE I WRITE THE MORE I REMEMBER AND UNDERSTAND SO I HAVE TO STOP NOW.

MARVEL YOU WIN

YOU WIN MARVEL

far from home: 7/8

great movie. really enjoyed it. the suits were amazing. effects were awesome. marvel really nailed that high school essence. cant imagine ender as spidey. tom holland killed it. ned was lulz and many other great humor moments. great casting. donnie darko nailed it too.

led zepp :smh:

my only gripe was the twist reveal. i had no issue with the reasoning it was the delivery that messed up the flow of the movie briefly.

spidey with tech is dope. this confuses me though. it felt like marvel was putting their eggs in one basket but he only has 1 solo movie left. are they wrapping it up next solo movie or does fiege know something we dont know :nerd:

first end credit :wow: hes byke. dont know how spideys world is going to look like since hes on front street. changes the whole spidey universe.

2nd end credit, i knew it. but why? i figured it was forced but it appears that person was there willingly.
