Sorry if there's another thread, I missed it if there was and can delete.
What'd everyone think of this film? I really enjoyed it. I thought Gyllenhall had a really good performance and portrayed Mysterio well. Found Ned and Betty to be really funny, and feel these MCU Spidey movies really nail the whole high school aspect of things.
Also, without question, Holland is easily the best of the three live Spider-man(s). Do wish there was more NYC in the movie though.

JK Simmons being back is awesome
Very interested to see what happens next with Spidey, it’s weird but cool having JK Simmons back. Where do they go next? Will Tom Hardy have a crossover movie with this Spiderverse?
Was at the drive-in where the second movie was MIB international. That was pretty good, but probably my third favorite of the MIB films. Nice of them to have Hemsworth's character pick up and throw a hammer at one point. That was fun to see.
Enjoyed the joke right off the bat about the "new phase" that was made by the high school students...because I'm seriously wondering what's next... I know a Black Widow movie is coming out and GOTG is delayed due to Gunn's schedule...I think there is another Black Panther and another Captain Marvel coming too?? I just can't wait to get to whatever is next!
Well, fuck all you people now!
I thought they handled the 'blip' very well, in terms of half of the population being five years older, including the kid who is Peter's rival with MJ.
And Spider-Man is never complete without JJJ - was really excited they brought back J.K. Simmons.
Speaking of post-credit scenes - where is Fury?
I must say that Endgame really feels like an end of MCU.
like it lost a bit of momentum
the original avengers seem more grounded and interesting
I am always bugged by the 5 year gap .. seems like a weird decision that will cause more problems down the road.
I am just am not so excited about Captain Marvel Dr Strange and Spiderman going forward .

Most likely they are introducing SWORD

The twist was obvious of course... but I think the whole joke about what everyone knows is called "Spidey-sense" being laughed off as his "Peter tingle" pays off REALLY well as being very specifically the reason he is able to defeat Mysterio in the end.

Captain Marvel is the one that get some really excited...
Also a potential GOTG with Thor would be awesome.
The thing I struggle with regarding Spiderman as part of the MCU... Couldn't Thor or Black Panther or Pepper or anyone really just come out and be like.. "Yo Spiderman/Peter is a good guy everyone, Mysterio was the bad guy...chill out" and then the whole public questioning goes away...

Not as good as Homecoming, and the twist is obvious to even a casual fan of the comic books. I did think they did a good job with Mysterio and his illusions keeping Spider-Man off balance.

I was actually really happy that his Spidey-sense finally got its due in this one. I feel like it’s barely been touched on since he debuted.
