the Cameron treatment would have arbitrarily changed Electro’s real name (Max Dillon) to “Carlton Strand”, and made him some kind of “homicidal Michael Milken” Kingpin pastiche with electrical powers. Sandman, sans an origin, would have also been there. Reading the treatment, I’m glad that the specific things I found…
Superheroes in general always came off as kind of fanciful to me
Danny was much better in the second season. In fact, everyone actually got better, even Ward - the writers finally figured out the characters. I think Finn and Tom were very ill served by the season 1 scripts.
Disney+ added a Marvel Studios Assembled “Making Of” for Shang-Chi and it’s a great watch. Everyone’s so invested in the film, the production scale was huge (Ta-Lo and its bamboo forest were physical sets), Michelle Yeoh and Tony Leung give their perspectives, and Simu Liu does an astonishing amount of stunts and…
I want the MCU Daredevil to be the silly, pre-Miller Daredevil, the one that fought aliens with blinding rays and pretended to be his own twin brother named Mike. And I want the main villain to be Stilt-Man.
It would have helped if the mooks didn’t keep doing the same tactic they all know won’t work. Like hit him with tear gas or something. Mariah even points out in season one that he can be poisoned but only that one guy in Season Two ever tries to do that.
I still don’t understand why people still lament the loss of the McDLT. It was a product of its time. Back then, the most popular McD’s menu items, like hamburger, cheeseburger, and quarter pounder, were all made and ASSEMBLED in advance, at least for the busy lunch and dinner times. So in that instance, keeping a…
Hopefully this movie will introduce Italian Spider-Man:
As much as I love Spider Man 2 (and I have such clear memories of calling a friend’s radio show immediately after coming out of the theater because I was so excited I had to talk to SOMEBODY), there is simply no comparison. Not only is it more artistically sophisticated, “Into the Spider”-Verse does a better job of…
“Japanese Spider-ManShit”
Give us Bumblebee 2, you cowards!
Shit, this looks good. I know we’re getting Spider-Woman, which is definitely cool, but apparently we’re also getting Japanese Spider-Man and I can’t wait to see that.
I looooove the stylized design of 2099 Spidey and how his whole world looked different. If we spend these two movies hopping through different dimensions and they manage to give a different look to every world and Spider-person I might re-watch these even more than the first Spider-verse.
There’s no need to hedge with this “maybe one of the top two” stuff, Spiderverse is objectively the best Spidey film.
Here to sour the mood in a surprise move is Sony with a sneak peak of Mobius
Not content to let Sony hog the spotlight with a full month of anticipation for the next Spider-Man sequel, here comes Sony out of left field with a trailer for the next Spider-Man sequel.
Give me Spider-Man 2099. Give me Leopardon. Give me Spider-Punk. Give me Spiders-Man. Give me Spider-Ma’am. Give me ALL of the SPIDERS!
An English class text in school had an excerpt from his book. In that version his family was too poor to buy Ovaltine themselves, so in order to get the decoder ring he would go through the trash of richer families for their discarded proofs of purchase. That made the decoded message of “Be sure to drink your…
No, they said it was from China.
