Jenna Coleman is an inspired choice for Constantine, but they all seem well cast. A lot will come down to just how they do it, tbh. I liked Good Omens but it was kinda old-fashioned TV in a lot of ways and I don't think that'd work at all for Sandman.

It's like the Sam Worthington curse - where you star in a billion dollar movie and then disappear forever. ATJ seems like a bad choice for Kraven, but who knows?

I liked him in those and even in Godzilla '14, and I don't really know that much about Kraven beyond reading some Spidey comics in the 80s and 90s, and the odd Funny Comics Panel in BSS. But still, huh?

Kraven doesn't even make sense Why did he single out spiderman as some sort of "greatest hunt"? The world is filled to the brim with superpowered people by now, surely Spiderman is not the greatest trophy... Logically he should be hunting the hulk or Thor or hell, even Iron Man

Because he'd never even see Black Panther before a couple-three annoyed bald black women just kicked the living poo poo out of him before maybe dumping him in a hospital across the border.

Spider-man's whole deal is really the weakest in the MCU. In everything else, his context is that despite being an independent superhero with little to no institutional support, he punches way above his weight class.

I enjoy the unintentional commentary where, in contrast to the comics, the military-industrial complex has Peter from cradle to grave. He goes to a STEM magnet school, gets his powers from a shady mismanaged corporate project, and six months later Tony recruits him into the super-mafia under the guise of a STEM internship program for disadvantaged youths. Stark Industries Presents Iron Man's Sidekick, Spider-Boy! He acts as an enforcer for Tony a few times before crumbling to dust.

But it is really weird how Spider-Man has been recast to be Tony Stark, Jr while heroes like Daredvil, Luke Cage, Ghost Rider, Misty Knight, Iron Fist, Cloak and Dagger, the Punisher (I know it's not really the time for the Punisher) have really been sidelined. Like it's incredibly bizarre to have an MCU where Rocket Racoon is a huge iconic character and Daredevil is floating around in an okay TV series with questionable canonicity. Even characters that feel like they would be exceptions to the rule like Moon Knight is a CIA agent. There's a good line in The Dark Knight Returns, "Sure, we're criminals. We've always been criminals. We have to be criminals." I think that is an ethos that really sits at the heart of Nolan's films. Superheroes work best when they are at some level, subversive. Once you institutionalize them, it gets a bit scary.

Superior Spider-Man showed he was holding back for years---Ock-Peter legit punched a man's entire jaw off his face with a normal punch and Ock was shocked Anyway have some stupid Joker news https://twitter.com/screenrant/status/1398004508832288773?s=20

Vakal posted:Nah, Spider-man can barely lift a car. In Amazing Spider-Man 365 the Lizard basically collapses half of Penn Station onto his back and he was able to lift it up and get out from under it. I think that was like a major moment around that time where they really establish that he's extremely strong but is holding back most of the time. I remember almost every Spider-Man issue across all his series for a bit after that point mentioning whenever he'd hit someone how like if he hadn't held back that person's head would have gotten crushed in or whatever.

The Mauler Twins make it to the end of the comics, though it's often because Kirkman can kill them with minimal reprecussions. They are pretty fun though.

I love that Doc Ock begins his conversation with regular Peter Parker by throwing a car at him and ends it with a power slam into a brick wall that Pete walks off. Doc, you might have found the guy you’re looking for.

With Jamie Foxx and Alfred Molina already confirmed to return as their versions of Electro and Doctor Octopus, the Sinister Six theory seems very likely.quote:Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin is rumored to be the main villain of Spider-Man: No Way Home. Green Goblin is one of six villains in the movie and will serve as the main antagonist. Marvel Studios and Sony's third installment in Tom Holland's Spider-Man franchise is shaping up to be quite different from what fans expected when Spider-Man: Far From Home ended. After Mysterio revealed Spider-Man's secret identity, the MCU's Spider-Man 3 is going in a surprising direction with the heavily rumored presence of the multiverse. Rumors pointed to Willem Dafoe's return in Spider-Man: No Way Home as early as December 2020, when announcements for the film first started coming through the flood gates.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:With Jamie Foxx and Alfred Molina already confirmed to return as their versions of Electro and Doctor Octopus, the Sinister Six theory seems very likely. I suppose it was inevitable, but one of the things I liked most about the MCU Spider-man was how they didn't do stuff that had already been done. I have to admit to being slightly skeptical about Spider-Man and Dr. Strange together. I mean, "fighting Doc Ock" seems like it would be two seconds of Peter fending off Octavious before Strange turns him into an actual octopus. As far Willem Dafoe coming back as Norman Osbourn, I hope they do better with the costume. Green Goblin from the 2002 Spider-Man was kind of the subject of one of my Marvel villains suck rants. "Willem Dafoe looks absolutely terrifying as Willem Dafoe. He looks cheesy as the Goblin."

Green Goblin being impaled on his glider and they might have to jump through hoops to explain his return. Doc Ock drowning under a pier destroyed by a nuclear reactor and everyone shrugs? That's a fun double standard.
