Spider-Man 2: Far From Home (July 5, 2019)

Spider-man was the only MCU hero who still had a secret identity, right?

Spoiler: show

Black Panther outside of Wakanda maybe?

It does bring up a good point when they had him say "execute them all" in post credits they didn't just show it was Peter despite him having his mask off there. Plausible deniability could be a thing, possibly through skrulls. Was watching the TFS review and they brought up an interesting theory. Next villain could be Kraven hunting Spider-Man. Doesn't even have to be a bad guy, just hunting this "Mass murdering Spiderman."

Spoiler: show

My prediction (and hope) is the next villain will be Scorpion. In the comic Jameson hires a private detective and then puts him through a series of genetic experiments and turns him into The Scorpion. And remember he has already made an appearance in the first movie (although without any powers yet) so it would be perfect.

Thought it was great.

Mysterio is for sure not dead. Peter only asks if it's an illusion, and Edith only answers with "all the drones are gone." The guy's an actor, he totally sold his death and Peter bought it, because he's gullible.

Dunno where they're gonna go with that mid-credit scene, but it definitely caught me off-guard.

That whole fight at the end was pretty cool. The hallway part at the very end, specifically.

They assume Cap is dead probably because he disappeared. Or maybe Cap IS dead.

I might end up seeing this again next weekend BUT

Spoiler: show

I am pretty sure when Happy throws the shield he says, "How does he/cap do that?" Not "did." It would be overthinking if it weren't for the fact that Jon Favreau plays the character. So I think it's safe to say Cap is alive, just old.

With that said, I really like the film. There's always something refreshing about a Spiderman story, and as a sequel this was really well done.

Some minor thoughts:

Spoiler: show

I read an article just recently about the live action actors being behind cameos in the Spiderverse cartoons, sounds like the film was hinting at it majorly with the Mystero convo (even if fake) and having J.K. come back as J.J., which would be pretty neat.


I stated this a couple months back, but even if they haven't announced it yet, it seems like a partnership with Sony and Disney are still far from being done. They are really pushing hard to have Spiderman be the next avenger leader, which to me doesn't quite fit yet as we are still in teen-spidey time, but I'm guessing it has to do with Holland being eager to keep making the films vs. other actors who are probably over it already.

It's not just Spiderman be new avenger leader/being the new central character. It feels like Tom Holland is taking over Robert Downey Jr's role as face of MCU. He's just a very charismatic guy. I figure Disney will do whatever it takes to maintain it's hold on Spidey. Probably also largely depends on the success of the other Villain movies.

Not really a spoiler, but I lol'd

Spoiler: show

I did get a p good chuckle out of the movie opening with the Sony emblem and then the studio thats a part of Sony before the actual movie started

Saw this last night and I enjoyed it. Definitely got caught off guard at the mid credits scene. Was not expecting that. Took my cousin who doesnt go to superhero movies all that much and he liked it.

If this film doesn't make $1B, Sony will regain full control of the Spiderman franchise. If it does, Marvel will be allowed to do a third.

[Zealot]

On my way to go see it another 50 times.

Lmfao wtf, Sony fucking retarded if they think their in house talent can produce a movie as successful as these have been.

It's already at 600 million. It will easily clear 1b. I'm curious what Sony is actually expecting. They're banking on their villain cinematic universe but no one has been able to do 2-3 movies in a universe without it crashing and burning. Considering what Marvel has invested in Spider-Man and Tom Holland I don't doubt there will be another deal where they get even greater control of Spider-Man. They're just biding their time until Sony screws up.

Basically came to say this lol MCU is the best thing that's happened to Spiderman in over a decade.

[Odesseiron]

Marvel gets nothing out of this other than being able to use Spider-Man in it's movies. Sony still gets all the profits from the films. I'm not sure how that works with Avengers and such, but the solo films at least.

They can always go back to trying their hand at it. ASM cost about 300 mil with marketing and cleared $757 mil world wide. ASM2 was even more expensive and made about $700 mil.

Both Homecoming and Far From Home have cost about 100 mil less and cleared more. (FFH has "only" made $600 mil but it's been a week)

They would be retarded to take control back. Besides, it's only an option, it's not like it said "MAKE THIS OR ELSE" Though, Sony's track record of movie making decisions is pretty awful.

Let's keep our fingers crossed.

Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse

Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse

Top tier SM movie for sure.

[6souls]

Top tier SM movie for sure.

Agreed. That was a top notch film.

[Katlan]

Homecoming was fantastic imo. I can't really say much that hasn't already been said, but I am very interested to see where it goes from here

[Tyrath]

Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse

I had an implied live action there.

[Salodin]

Have they even talked sequels yet? I feel like spiderverse was a one shot

Yes. Sequel and all-female spin-off. There has also been talk of a Miles live-action.
