That looks awesome. More Spider-Gwen! And more Spidey 2099 (presumably still voiced by Oscar Isaacs so I have to keep questioning my heteresexuality) - but man, that Part One qualifier really is a bit of a mood killer.
I noticed that. Looks a bit weird, but I'll take it (yes, we want our half-mexican Spider-verse representation)Miguel looks way more jacked than expected
Currently watching tonight's episode, but just popped in here to ask: Why does Clint have no texting history with his wife?
Shang Chi was also good but requires no defense. Final bits setting up sequels, connecting back to the MCU worst part by a mile but who cares.
Yeaaahhhhhhh, I'd love to but I'm not stepping foot in a theater right now. Especially where I live.Go see it before you get spoiled.
Yeah, the only Marvel thing I've unreservedly liked since Endgame is Loki. Shang-chi was fun until it descended into all CGI. Black Widow was entertaining. Falcon and the Winter Soldier was vaguely competent. I couldn't be doing with What If at all. Hawkeye is the second best Marvel series for me, but it's only OK.Hawkeye is fine. It's entertaining enough that I don't regret spending time with it. I think the story is dragging though. I also have a hard time really caring about any of the characters here besides Yelena. Hawkeye to me, commits the cardinal sin of asking me to care about and root for these characters despite them not being particularly likable, which always creates a big disconnect.
I get the sinking feeling that Hawkeye himself will survive this show so we can have the happy Christmas moment at the end which sucks to me because Barton should probably die for any of this to be satisfying. At least, that's how I feel. But if we really want to see Kate elevated to an Avenger tier character and eventually replace Hawkeye, she needs more practice and real mentorship. Because as currently constituted, she's woefully unprepared and underskilled to do what Clint does. She can get there eventually, but if she's suddenly doing insane Hawkeye-tier trickshots in the last episode and going off to the Avengers Compound, it's gonna feel very unearned. It's just a weird situation as currently constituted. It'll be interesting to see how the show handles the finale.
My comic book thing that bugs the shit out of me is ending on a memory wipe to preserve a secret identity or whatever. I don't even really care about the MCU characters who will likely have more appearances but it was kind of cool to think about the other Spider-Men and their villains having memories of this adventure. I mean I guess they kind of could because apparently parts of this were preserved? They'd just forget about the MCU Peter Parker specifically? I don't know. I'm curious. Way more confused than about this than the way time travel worked in Infinity War/Endgame, which not only made perfect sense to me but I actually liked. (traveling back in time isn't possible, but some universes' timelines travel at different speeds due to narrative convenience)
Endgame also had that sad subplot with other Nebula. She's not dying to satisfy the audience at all! We want her to live because we know she can be redeemed. Perhaps the only female death in that duology that worked for me - Gamora's and Black Widow's were undermined by the fact that I knew they had subsequent movies coming up, but I guess they were supposed to count. I wouldn't really say Thanos's first death is supposed to be satisfying. It's clearly pointless! Fully agree that continuity clean-up is generally immoral and narratively frustrating.
