    and they're apparently considering it

    I have doubts that's actually real.  It would be fun to see Garfield have another go of it though....maybe let him tango with the villain verse they're building?  Or antihero verse?  Whatever the fuck it is.  It was clear from the movie from his own mouth that he had really let shit get dark so I could see that fitting a bit and maybe it takes place AFTER this movie when he is starting to crawl back out of the dark place?  I feel bad because yes, Sony can't do it for shit, but I REALLY like Garfield as Spidey/Peter.  He brought a lot to that role and gets unfairly shit on because of bad writing.

    I really can't say anything on that since i've never watched Andrew Garfield's AS version. At the time i was really burnt out from so many movies getting a revamp (i was also a bit biased for Toby's Spidey) and when i heard poor reviews on it, i never fept the need to watch them. Don't have anything against Andrew just......didn't wanna. ?

    You should watch them just to do it.  The 2nd has a crap story for the most part but it's just....fun to watch Peter and Gwen honestly.  Would give you a little extra something to go with that shit in this movie too. :crying2:

    Have to assume he didn't get caught in the blip, and the kind of shenanigans he must have been up to during that time could be a huge setup going forward for the more down to earth stuff?. Makes me think of the whole Secret Empire storyline when New York gets trapped in that bubble of Darkness and the heroes trapped there are so busy dealing with all the crazy shit that Kingpin goes and helps all the regular people and basically Good Samaritans his way into becoming mayor of New York when everything goes back to normal.

    Oooh I really like this thought.  I am so fucking excited that they're bringing him back.  I don't know how they keep doing it but Marvel just manages to keep making the MCU more and more exciting. :rotfl:

     

    Also the thing we've pretty much been guessing this whole time....her mom is a baddy.  I bet that Jack works for her in some capacity too.  I'm REALLY curious where that all is going.  Also I like Yelena...she's just fun.  I also like that she's not just a carbon copy of Natasha.

    Lots of cheers for Toby and Garfield (I think your theater having more cheers for Garfield may have been more a matter of everyone being excited at whoever was first lol).  I knew it was coming but it still nearly brought a tear to my eye (for both of them frankly).  I knew as soon as the portal opened and I saw that body language that it was Garfield (something I always loved about his Spidey).  Toby showing up was less exciting in part because he doesn't show up in costume and he's really not the most emotive lol but I still had the feels.

     

    The moment where Garfield Spidey saves MJ seriously almost brought me to tears lol.  You can see tears welling up in his eyes and it was such an amazing moment of closure for him.  That was probably one of the best moments in the movie honestly.

    Massive cheers when this dude shows up.  This moment was fucking gold.  "HOW DID YOU DO THAT?"  "I'm just a REALLY good lawyer." :rotfl:

     

    All the stuff with the Spideys doing science together and shit was fantastic.  Something I really appreciated about this movie and the way it used these characters was that it wasn't just a bunch of shitty nostalgia fuel cameos.  They legit USED these characters (except yeah the Lizard was just there lol).  Their interactions were fantastic with each other.  You felt the how they were different but also the same and the on screen chemistry was awesome (which you would KIND of expect since they were all cast as the same character but still).

     

    I love that Norman essentially becomes the main villain.  I honestly was shocked he killed May and it seems like May is the true Ben Parker of the MCU Spidey which I like.  Turn that on its head a little.  She finally says the line and you know right there it's over and that sucks.  But yeah, I absolutely loved all the shit with Norman.  God he fucking hates Spider-Man.  I was a little bummed when he said Oscorp did not exist in this reality though.  I was a little unsure about the no mask thing in the posters leading up to this but I'm glad they went for it.  Dude has such an expressive face and the new costume he was just killing it.  Dude is terrifying without a goblin mask. :rotfl:

     

    Mid credits with Venom is kinda...well they obviously brought him over literally just to leave a piece of the Symbiote behind.  I was kinda hoping he would ACTUALLY show up in the movie but that's okay.  There was already enough shit going on.

     

    I'm also really sad for all that Peter had to give up but also really looking forward to the possibilities in the future with them having cleared the board now for Spidey.  He's not going to be Iron Man Jr anymore, all that shit is definitively like done, and I fucking LOVED that new costume he made himself at the very end.  I'm REALLY looking forward to what comes next because it seems like they're really setting up something a LOT more grounded for him and that excites me too. :nod: 

     

     

    I honestly cannot wait to watch this shit again.  Fuck it was so good.

     

    Also this video was great (SPOILERS OF COURSE):

    We'll see if the ones "evaluating" their business relationships with the company actually ever go anywhere. :| 

    They won't!  They will furrow their brows quite exquisitely though!

    I honestly forgot how kind of bad ALL of them are

    Hey, you shut your whore mouth! :pissed2: I  still think Spider-Man 2 is legitimately fucking fantastic.  Buuut....yeah I know what you mean about all the pouting and emotions.  They captured the feel of those comics a little too well sometimes. :rotfl:

    Marking spoilers due to trailer related comments and some stuff from other movies:

    I really like that they changed Jamie Foxx's Electro for the new movie, but still managed to reference the old school lightning bolt mask briefly on top of that. He also seemed excited to not be blue in an interview thing that I saw with him, Alfred Molina and Willem Dafoe.

     

    Wondering if they're legitimately going to fit Venom into the movie. The entirety of the Let There Be Carnage after credit scene seems like it was meant to set that up. It tracks with bringing back all the old movie villains, except now they can leave out the shitty Venom. XD
    ?
    Better yet, throw him in there and let the new Venom eat him. It would be mildly cathartic and then he can have the spider-symbol on his chest just because. :rotfl: 
     

     

    Spoiler

    Fucking LOL.  I love all of this.  They're 100% absolutely setting up Venom to be in this movie, no doubt and I would lol my ass off if they did that with Topher Venom. :rotfl:

    Even though I'm pretty sure I've had everything spoiled (because they haven't been shy about them) I'm trying to avoid any posters or trailers until I see the movie.

    Yeah it has been impossible.  I gave up months ago.  I'm just along for the ride I guess.  I am hyped to the max and hoping they don't let me down. :rotfl: 

     

    Started watching all the old Spidey movies in anticipation of this.  It's been fun.  I watched ASM2 and started Spider-Man 3....they're still crap.  Though I think Spider-Man 3 is still better than ASM2.  Sucks because ASM had such potential and they just blew their load everywhere.

    I'm fucking digging this so far.  Also clearly David Aja's designs all over the DNA of this show too.  Hoping they give him so more money since so far it seems like he got jack shit.

     

    The story though, I like that they're mixing it up a bit so it's not exactly the same so the characters fit a little more into the MCU.  In the comic Hawkeye was kind of a fuckup and Kate was the one holding shit together but they sort of flip flopped this since MCU Hawkeye is an actual legit adult who knows what he is doing. :lol:

     

    Also ep 3 spoiler:

    Spoiler

    Also I recognized that voice IMMEDIATELY.  That is 100% fucking for sure Vincent D'Onofrio as the Kingpin.  I am psyched to the fucking moon and back about that one.

     

    Love they named Pizza Dog finally lol.  I like that they didn't just drop the character.  I really loved this newest episode somewhat adapting that silent issue of the comic.  This series is definitely a huge love letter to the comic.  Not exactly the same but pretty much as close as you could get. :D

     

    Also I am really liking Echo so far. :nod: I haven't actually read the comics with her but I like.

    Yeah I had very little interest going into it but I thought they did a very good job. The choreography was amazing. Was kind of leaning back until that bus scene and they had my attention after that. Definitely some flaws here and there but fun enough to not really care at the end.

    Same.  Interest in this was fairly meh but I ended up going anyway as I saw more about it and the movie was really fun.  Well done movie truly.

    Wish they hadn't killed the main guy again though.  Fucking Marvel villains man. :rotfl:

    I'm super excited we have a date and a trailer already.  Fuck yes.  Looks like 2099 is going to be a big part of this too.  Hell yes.

     

    Also VERY curious about the fact that it's part 1.  I have a sneaking suspicion that:

    Spoiler

    Since Sony and Marvel seem real tight lately maybe we're looking at them joining them to the MCU.

    Hah yeah this generation with the whole "leap to 3D" was never going to age super well imo.  I've looked back at old PS1 games too and have been like jesus christ what the fuck. :rotfl:

    Got these bad boys today.  Unfortunately I can't pair them to my 8bitdo adapter in Android right now but they work fine in Windows so I dicked around with some N64 games on the PC for a bit.  Controller definitely feels right. :O

    Looks cool. The color thing was interesting, wonder if it's just for the trailer. 

    Was thinking the same thing.  If the SHOW was actually like that, holy shit that would be incredible.  Somewhat reminiscent of all the weird shit they did in Scott Pilgrim. :lol:

    Hammerdin is a super easy to build high level build.

     

    I actually have not REALLY played Necro, Amazon, Druid, or Assassin in my years.  I started with a Barb, went to a sorc, then eventually tried a Hammerdin.  Should probably try an Amazon for reals at some point too.  Druid and Assassin just never really interested me that much.  Maybe I'll make a run at Druid though.  I played a LITTLE of every class but I've only made it to hell runs with a few. :P

    Jump to 80 a month from 35 is fucking horrendous.  I've got like 6 others on my account I'mma be hitting up for money if we're going to do this but JUST for N64 and Genesis roms...

    I did buy the Genesis and N64 controllers happily though.  I'm totally down for having those.

    Split into a new topic since the D4 topic became the D2R topic. :lol: 

     

    We finished Act 2 NM last night.  I still definitely need a little more oomph on my dude because certain types of packs are absolutely fucking up my summons (those electric bugs absolutely decimate in bigger packs).  I did make sure to get that first level of added resistance for my summons but that only goes so far.  Also did some Normal Cows for fun hah.  Got a few runes from that at least.

     

    Also @dr. b what is your battletag again?
