And that doesn't mean that it can't be done in any film but maybe their specific cinematography choices for the movie/series overall weren't compatible.

I really liked what they did in the spetacular spider man cartoon. They start with it being the spider man 3 version of the symbiote costume and it slowly changes to the regular symbiote costume. Wouldn't work for a movie though, granted.

Yeah I'm not saying it could NEVER work or even that it couldn't work in like Homecoming 2. I just don't think it would've worked then.

The symbiote suit would have looked a ton better if they just made the lines a bit thinner and stick out less, while making his emblem white and a bit bigger. It doesn't stick out at all how it is.

It seems like that might be a thing in the 90s, like hobgoblin with a Carnage symbiote or something. They had ample opportunity to, but instead went with the somehow even dumber Demogoblin

It doesn't stick out at all how it is. Pretty much this. All they did in SM3 was take the existing costume and remove the color pallet. The limited stuff they did with Toper Grace/Venom looked fine and would have worked for a black Spidey suit. Out of all my complaints with that piece of poo poo movie, the special effects were way, way down on my list. Actually that was one of the few bright spots in the film. The Sandman, Venom and even the Goblin Jr. effects were the very least of that movie's issues and they were often spectacular.

There's so much to love about Spidey homecoming but right now I am really appreciating the sillier moments, like, "Spider-Man, DO A FLIP" and Peter getting smashed through a school bus by the Shocker, looking up and seeing all that chewed gum stuck under the seats and going, "EW GROSS" This movie was a straight up comedy and it owns bones.

The whole interrogation scene was full of great bits. The Batman voice. "I'm not a woman! I'm a boy! I mean, I'm a man!" Everything Donald Glover "Those webs will dissolve in 2 hours." "But I got ice cream in here!" "You're a criminal, you deserve it."

Superheroes were introduced to civilians of the MCU basically by Avengers 1 and all that wild poo poo going down and aliens and gods and flying metal snakes and poo poo 8 years later, there's a little folk hero who posts videos of himself jumping around and stopping bike theives on Youtube and he's just a cute little fad you show your friends, all "Hey look that Egoraptor animator guy is making Let's Plays now he says some funny stuff sometimes, check it out man" And then you run into Egoraptor on the street and just like "Hey are you that grumpy guy from youtube? Say something funny" And it's the same thing. Captain America is a WWII hero frozen in time who runs around with a green monster and the god of thunder and here's some fifth tier superhero who jumps good, and you see him on the street and you say "Oh hey it's that guy from youtube who jumps around and stuff. Do a flip!" And it's just this wonderful little bit of character work / world building all in one, he really is just this small-town folk hero who people only know because he has a youtube channel with a few thousand subscribers And then he becomes a big deal after the whole DC thing, I guess. Pete's probably getting that ad money now. Actually Peter monetizing videos of Spider-man on YouTube is a hilarious take on him being a semi-professional photojournalist in the modern age.

He's also pretty well guaranteed a job at Stark Industries, too. I don't really read comics, but the movie versions of Peter have always struck me as more entry-level mad scientist than professional photojournalist in the making, and I could easily see this version of Peter becoming a professional chemist, using and improving his web fluid formula.

Calaveron posted:I keep seeing references for maybe making Uncle Ben "one of the four people who died in the Battle of New York" so this is saying that apparently only four people died during the end of Avengers 1? Confirm/Deny I heard that the numbers were really small, considering the scope of the invasion but I cannot believe a number that small. But even worse, that negates the whole "power/responsibility" shtick that is the core of the character. I mean, OK, at the end of the day, Peter really is just that good of a person. But that scenario means that either a) Peter was unable to save Ben, even with all of his power, in which case he doesn't learn the lesson about responsibility due to his actions; or b) Peter could have saved Uncle Ben, and didn't, which makes him directly responsible for his death, but that would be way too evil. Everyone knows the origin stories of Batman and Superman and Spider-man, so it's OK to not have to tell them again. But that doesn't mean you get to change THE KEY ELEMENT of said story. Batman's origin doesn't really work as well if he was left at home that night and Thomas and Martha went out on their own. Changing where Superman's pod lands has been a go-to for elseworlds stories over the years, and it makes a difference to the character. Having Ben die to random chance rather than Peter's hubris being responsible would potentially make a big difference. On that topic, I have not seen homecoming yet, do they show any pictures of Ben at any point? I want to know how much they de-aged him for the movie.

CzarChasm posted:Batman's origin doesn't really work as well if he was left at home that night and Thomas and Martha went out on their own. I just finished watching that Shadows of the Bat documentary someone posted and, apparently, in Batman Forever they explored the idea of the Waynes wanting to stay home that night but Bruce insisted they go to the movies, which I think adds a layer of pathos to the character. Shame they left that part out. Batman Forever is a little underrated I think. It's not great but there's a lot of cool stuff going on in it, especially from a visual standpoint. Kilmer, Carey, Kidman and O'Donnell are pretty good in it to varying degrees. TLJ just seems lost and, yeah, it's pretty corny at times but it's not the piece of poo poo people make it out to be. I remember enjoying in the theater. Watching that doc, it seems pretty obvious too that Keaton was the best Batman too. I have mixed feelings about Batman 89 and really love the Nolan trilogy but it's weird that Bale, in spite of being in the best Batman movies, was probably the shittiest Batman of the lot besides Clooney (which really wasn't his fault).

There's been a lot of stuff in the comics over the years where Bruce either insisted on going to the movie, or insisted that Martha wear the pearls, or that the movie was a celebration of Bruce coming home from a rough boarding school (Morrison's Gothic). It's not so unusual really. And Jim Carrey is loving unbearable in Forever.

At one point during the first Avengers you see what the Chitari are doing to civilians. They're just rounding them up, like they're trying to capture them. That's my no-prize answer.

Azzarello's Broken City has Bruce get mad that Thomas tries to cancel going to the movies, and implies that Bruce's last words to them before their deaths was "I hate you." or something similar. People really wanna twist that knife.

The crazy thing is Joe Chill just robbed a wrestling promotion, and Peter Parker could have stopped him but didn't. He went home with his uncle, who found out about his powers which were cured by Lexcorp in exchange for his company's researching them, to which he was given a top college scholarship and a guaranteed internship.
