Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
I'm both interested and concerned with this. This movie looks really overstuffed to me, and although all the individual pieces look good I worry about their ability to combine well in the runtime of a single movie. Spider-verse and Sinister Six in one movie is asking a LOT.
Speaking of which, the animated Spider-verse film was just a couple years ago, did we really need that in a movie again already?
Ah well, I hope it's good, and I hope it's not the last of the Tom Holland Spider-Man movies.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
That's just kinda how the MCU does things in general though. They're less "intricate and well laid plot lines" and more "let's just throw everything at the wall and see what sticks!" It works for them because they're not the type of movies you want to think too hard about.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
This is a sentiment I've been seeing a lot, lately. Spider-verse doesn't really need to be the default state of Spider-Man media. Heck, the darn near obsession with it has even leaked into the Power Rangers comics, what with the whole Shattered Grid storyline. Too much of a good thing can get old.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
I don't think you can reasonably blame Spider-Verse for that given that they did their ultimate every-team-ever crossover literally the same month the Spider-Verse comic started (and it was based on the Super Sentai 35th anniversary movie from 3 years before that).

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
We won't hit peak Spiderverse until they give us a big screen portrayal of Japanese Spider-man (The Emissary From Hell!) and his giant mecha Leopardon...

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
I mean, "what if there was more than one Spiderman" is a story that's been around with different variations since the 70s at least. It's one of his more common recurring stories. Also there are way too many Spider people in comics as a result.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
Wasn't Takuya and Leopardon already canon in the comics anyway?
Also, yeah, if we can possibly have the 35th anniversary SS as far away as possible from any PR discussion, that would be great.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
What about a cameo from Yuu Onomae, protagonist of Spider-Man: Fake Red? Short series where Spidey goes missing, and a Japanese-American guy with a similar build stumbles across his suit.
The finale of the 90s animated series had a multidimensional team of Spider-Men, one of whom turns out to be an actor from a universe similar to our own (imagine if they accidentally recruited Tom Holland, basically); he feels too useless to join their mission, but ends up saving the day at the last minute. If you really wanted, you could reference two past media at once by slotting Yuu into that role.
And then there's Yuu Komori, protagonist of the 70s Spider-Man manga, who spends a lot of time morbidly depressed and fantasising about murdering the people who annoy him.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
Too be fair, the difference here is these are all well established and known characters to the audience, making it a lot easier to toss them into a blender and hit frappe. That was the problem with toby and his third. You had harry osborn as the goblin, the venom suit then brock as venom AND you had the sandman all needing to have their origin story and motivation and such covered in a single film. This time we can just go "OMG ITS DOCK OCK!" Honestly, I wanted a spiderman franchise to live long enough for a sinister six film for a long time now.
This all sounds like it can be an easy justification for a reboot, after all, holland is on record as saying he doesnt want to be playing spiderman when he is 30. And a huge multiversal collision like this can easily have reboot effects. You could even literally bring in a new actor to play spiderman in THIS mcu and justify it through dimensional shenanigans. Plenty of angst as mj and may want nothing to do with this stranger, the new spiderman isnt familiar with anyone or anything here, etc.Last edited by Traab; 2021-11-21 at 06:00 PM.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
Also, to MCU's credit, it has a track record of handling newly-introduced ensemble casts courtesy of James Gunn's GotG. So there's at least some kind of precedent or template, and the MCU loves its templated movies.
It's pretty wild how many mulligans Fox had in making a good ensemble movie, but missed on most of their attempts. Sony blew both of its live action ensemble Spider-Man movies, with Spiderverse at least bringing Sony's hitting record to at least a 1 of 3.

Re: Spider-Man: No Way Home - New Trailer
I can't see them passing up a chance to put Miles in the MCU. It's not a matter of if he gets in, but when. With the huge push for representation and how good the MCU is about being inclusive, and the fact that Miles is probably the best of those legacy characters...It just makes sense.
Not saying it'll be as a result of this movie, but it won't be long.
