Oh and the ending scene
not sure how I feel about that at all. It was funny but the ramifications ehhh.

Depends on how you stick the landing. I loved it because I didn't see it coming but also i had a "it's about fukking time" moment. And yeah I want to see where it goes. So the next movies will make that either a smart thing or a bad thing

@Dominic Brehetto

Matter of fact, its just like the ending to Iron Man and that led to interesting places, so you have to treat this the same as a writer and director


Who do you think the villain(s) will be in the sequel? Also where the hell do I know the kid who played Flash from? :patrice:

Grand Budapest Hotel if you saw that

Yeah. They just handle the creatives and Sony keeps the profits. I was happy they went outside their normal stable of writers though and let some other guys handle it, including the director and his writing partner. Rarely do you see a flick with 6 damn writers turn out good



I didn't see him as a bad guy in that typical sense breh and neither did he. So I don't think from a creative standpoint it was a jump to go from his first job, which was scavenging battle sites for cash to his other job of the same thing, just using hi tech shyt to do it. He's an arms dealer who sells to guys like him and much like a drug dealer says he's just feeding his family so he goes from seeing someone get rich to doing hand to hand shyt. We just skipped the hand to hand and fast forwarded to when he was Avon Barksdale in his prime.




Breh I swear we're going to fight:russ:
right but he's a murderer now. He goes from family man worker to arms dealer and murderer with literally 0 build up.

It was very poorly done. He had potential,Keaton was game and I enjoyed his monologue but man there was just no character there. They didn't even bother building him up.it was as bad as anything I've seen from a character build up point of view. He needed more screen time. I felt absolutely nothing for him because they didn't bother t giving him an arc. It was just bam,I'm a villain now.


Also didn't care for the "twist" it just felt green goblin redone,right done to them recreating the glider attack from behind.

It's getting g to be pretty cliche for Peters identity to continually be known by his enemy.


I wanted to like vulture way more. But there is a glaring problem with his arc.

I think the only problem is he knows the secret and he's not dead for real. I bought him willing to go to whatever lengths for the family and most of that is through Keaton and not anything on the page, but thats because Keaton is so damn good as an actor.

I agree with you on the Green Goblin redux but it struck me as earned here and also, adds a new dynamic by really playing into the coming of age high school angle. The scariest thing in high school is meeting your girls dad lol this was that just through a different lens. it also helped his motivation was easy to buy

I believe it's going to be Scorpion. I kind of like how in the Garfield movies and this movie they're not going back to the main baddies like the Goblin and Dr. Octopus. I wish DC would do this and stop going back to the Joker everytime there is a new Batman film series.

:damn: you said I got till today it's the last day!!

But don't ask the man to do a standard ass review. @Dominic Brehetto please don't do some weak ass thing where you just give the movie a score and list pros and cons. Dig in on that shyt. Write something people want to read. Take an angle and analyze it, take a scene you liked or didn't like and break it down. Take a theme and work with it. That regular ole review shyt doesn't cut it anymore unless you're one of the big boys. That "heres what I thought and here's my grade" shyt is going the way of the dinosaur

That's probably the only problem I had with his character. What exactly would be his motivation to keep it a secret? I wouldn't have mind if he got amnesia or something during the crash to explain why he wouldn't know. Yeah it sounds formulaic and too much like the Goblin but :yeshrug:

I really don't understand the point of the mid credits scene.
