Spider-Man 2017 film

[Shark_Blade]

I like that Keaton shot that asshole, I wouldn't mind it at all if I was the villain too. That man was a useless baggage and all, bringing the team down. He had it coming.

Oh, wrong weapon huh? *shrugs and moves on* Heh I really like Keaton being evil in this.

I feel like watching this movie again. So Michelle

Spoiler:

is actually MJ/Mary Jane right? Or is this a completely new character?

I'm mixed on this movie. There's some stuff I really liked but lots of stuff had me shaking my head. Overall I enjoyed it and thought it was a solid movie but it wasn't great like I was hoping for.

- Holland is great in the role. My fave Spidey / Parker so far. I liked seeing him try to balance high school with wanting to prove himself worthy of being an Avenger.
- Right amount of RDJ. I was worried he'd take over the movie.
- Keaton's performance was good but his character was poorly written. They tried to make him sympathetic but it didn't work for me. 'I want to give my family nice things' is weak. Wasn't expecting the twist since I've avoided everything about this movie since the 2nd trailer.
- What's the point of calling Zendaya MJ if she isn't Mary Jane? I don't get it.
- Too much tech in the suit. Thank goodness he didn't take the new suit at the very end. Thought it looked horrible. He probably wears it in Infinity War.
- The 8 years later really bothers me. I'm a stickler for timelines being accurate and that threw a big wrench in the MCU timeline.
- Why were they transporting a new shield for Cap to the new facility? Why would Tony make him a new one?
- Aunt May was nothing more than a throwaway character there for jokes about her appearance. I believe she had one scene that wasn't about that. I actually like that she found out at the end simply to add to the dynamic between her and Peter going forward.

So how would you guys rate this compared to the 5 other Spiderman movies? Make your ranking lists.

In-between the McGuire/Raimi trilogy and the pair by Garfield/Webb.

I am legitimately upset and angry at this ****ing movie. They made Spider-Man a complete ****ing hack and joke. He's afraid of heights! He can't webswing without breaking everything in sight! No, shove it up your ass. #notmyspider-man.

[ranger_scout]

This film absolutely brought back the former glory days of Spider-Man. Tom Holland brought such a youthful take to the character and made him believable. I liked seeing Tony Stark serve as a mentor to Peter. It was a nice change of pace even though Uncle Ben has always been a solid character. They also really assembled a solid supporting cast as well.

Spoiler:

It sucks that Peter had to keep ditching Liz, but it clearly wasn't meant to be. Seeing Happy and Pepper again also made me smile. Unlike a lot of villains in these superhero films, Toomes seems to have seen the errors of ways and did a good deed by not revealing who Spider-Man really was.

I'm completely at a loss for words at the incompetence of the story team on that what. I mean, for ****'s sake, it hasn't even been 8 years since The Avengers in real time! I think the film is meant to take place in fall 2016, but... 2020? What idiot came up with that? Did someone just take a look at Iron Man's release date and think the prologue was a reference to that movie? Completely bizarre. I'm usually not a fan of studios changing movies for home video but that is one alteration that ought to happen.

Saw it today and loved it, I love that the After Credit Scene

Spoiler:

trolls the audience that stay after the credits.

Spoiler:

I appreciated the Ferris Bueller-esque ending that went along with the Captain America gag.

Is it Liz Toomes? The credits just had her as 'Liz'. The actress is black which blinded the audience when Keaton's Vulture opened the door. A lot of us went "OHHHHHHHHHHHH!". That being said is this version of Liz mixed? She acted like it was her father opposed to step-father.

Another thing I was looking for clarification is,the wihte guy with a goatee or the black guy, which one is Herman Shultz or is the vibro-shock device meant to be The Shocker?

I took it as the clean up from the first Iron Man film instead of the Avengers first film to adjust to the timeline. Not knowing much about Iron Man, did that thing with Pepper happen in the comics?

In the comics, there were two versions of

I liked that we got a tease of

The Iron Spider suit

I wonder if we will see that in Infinity War.

No, it was definitely cleanup from the Avengers. All that tech Toomes got was Chitauri/alien stuff, not from Stark's broken lab.

Yeah, because

Spoiler:

The movie starts at the aftermath of the Battle of NY, then goes forward 8 years later.

[Turo602]

Maybe they want to keep Spider-Man young for a while? That way when the next one comes out, they wouldn't have to time jump too much.

But that makes no sense. CW takes place in 2016 for certain - it takes Tony Stark 4 more years afterwards to get all his crap out of his old tower? It takes him 4 years to unveil the building to the public?

So...am I the only one who liked

Spoiler:

Karen? Maybe it's because I'm not a huge comics reader, but I don't have as much of a problem with how techy the suit is as most people here do. Plus he spent a fair amount of the movie without the enhancements, between having them turned off with "training wheels" and in the end when he just had the homemade suit.

Something I'm still thinking about is Michelle.

Spoiler:

I wish that she was in the movie for a bit longer, especially considering the end reveal. Quite honestly,
I liked her character a lot except I wish she was just Michelle Jones and not MJ. I can't tell if she's actually supposed to be Mary Jane or just a substitute character? She doesn't seem to act like Mary Jane at all.

The "8 Years Later" card threw me for a loop. Someone on Reddit put together a revised MCU timeline that used that to set Avengers in 2009 or something. I guess it sort of makes sense, saying it would take 4 years for Tony to build all 40 some armors in IM3. Marvel really just needs to hire a team to just release and then maintain an official canon. Between the "8 Years Later" and

Spoiler:

Ego's alien goop that covered a small town in 2014 and was never investigated

in GotG2, this is becoming even more of a clusterf*ck than it already was.

The actor is still going to age in real life over the next few years, so he'll look physically older in the next couple of movies. Especially young fresh-faced actors like this, nobody looks exactly the same at age 20 when they hit 23-25 for example.

The next one is slated for 2019 and Infinity War is going to be before that. I doubt he's gonna change much in the next 2 years. I'm 22 and I still look like I did 2 years ago. If he shows some age by the time they want him to be a senior in the films, it wouldn't be too crazy.
