Also, since it depicts the 2012 events of The Avengers, it takes place over a decade ago from (half) the audience’s perspective. The first 9/11-set commercial media took less time to show up.

The Paramount+ basic plan has ads, too. It’s worth it to pay a few dollars more to get the ad-free version, but I think it’s more than fair to put ads into the show on Pluto since they’re releasing it for free.

This feels like the kind of story that could have used some reporting.

You know sony still owns the newer films too, right?

You misunderstand. The idea of the multiverse, or a crossover, is something that no viewer will have any trouble with it, not because Marvel primed them for it, but because it’s really isn’t all that complicated.

Does time not continue in other universes???

Then why are they all wearing slightly different versions of their costumes from those films? Why was Alfred Molina de-aged? Did Doc Ock also time-travel from 2004? Why is Jamie Foxx not blue?

That would be wild. Disney would have to give Sony a ton of money to make that happen, and it might not even be possible depending on where else those movies are streaming right now (exclusivity deals, etc).

You can buy a physical gift card and have it shipped to you.

The most interesting thing about this, which will have felt obvious to the writers of this film but will utterly confuse audiences, is that these returning actors are all playing different versions of the same characters they played in their original films.

Me throwing my hands as wide as possible while turn around on every direction.

Yes! Viggo was a terrifying villain, extremely well portrayed. The plot is well-paced. Fast in exactly the right spots and leisurely where it needs to be.

The original actually has a lot of sketch comedy gags in it. It was half-way to a National Lampoon movie. People remember it as less goofy than it was because it was heavily toned down in the edit (they filmed an entire scene where Murray and Aykroyd play a pair of “Central Park bums”).

If there’s literally no legal way for you to legitimately purchase said a piece of media.

You can use Paramount+-branded gift cards, prepaid credit cards, or PayPal.

They don’t make money per stream from Netflix like Spotify. Netflix pays a rate for the show for a certain amount of time. Paramount, et al, doesn’t make any money from Netflix views.

I’m of two minds about this:

That’s because the 2016 film was a reboot. I think it’s okay to expect twists on many or most of the original’s iconic elements in a reboot.

Have you seen the glasses she wears? Calling this a spoiler is quite a stretch.

What reason is there for any movie?
