I think it's better than Ant-Man. And I really liked Ant-Man. Comparing it to an Endgame just isn't fair. Also Ragnarok was so good partially it was b/c everyone thought Thor's tone would be like in his first 2 movies and the previous Avengers movies.
Guessing this is a nerd thing, in that it isn't scattered if you watched Loki and What If? . I mean the beginning of the movie was directly from the post credits of Far From Home (like how Ragnarok and Infinity War was). It's just Spider trying to fix everything. Remember he literally just graduated high school so still a kid trying to fill Iron Man's shoes.
Jonah's been like that for decades now. Also the whole city isn't against him, ~half or more still on Spidey's side.
As far as saving the villains (at least those are the shitheads you're referring to I'm assuming), well none of them in the prior Spider-Man iterations were truly bad.
Norman Osborn - mental demons
Doc Ock - controlled by the arms; Otto was never a bad person.
Flint Marko - probably the worst, but Spider-Man 3 showed that him killing Uncle Ben was an accident.
Lizard - Curt Connors is a good guy trying to fix his arm, and the side effect that was supposed to help him turn himself into a lizard, then he went nuts.
Electro - just a sad, lonely individual that got a taste of power (literally) and went beserk
None of these guys actually DESERVED to die for their actions, like Dr. Strange just wanted to let them do? Shows Spidey's character.
Post Endgame does feel a bit off, ngl. Not really sure what the final goal is right now. The only tease is Shang Chi so far, w/ Shang meeting up w/ Captain Marvel and Bruce, and his sister starting up a new Ten Rings op.
Loved Spider-man No way Home
this movie was all about fan service
everytime I talk to friends about the movies , their usually all fans of the MCU , but have never really read any of the comics
if I had a nickel for everytime some one asked me about Tobey Maguire's Spider-man of Andrew Garfield's Spider-man
and try and explain the Marvel / SONY deal to them , and then throw in the Fox's X-Men movies
well , you see , Marvel kinda owns the rights to these characters , and SONY owns the rights to these characters , so their different , but now Marvel go the rights back to the X-Men , so all those other X-Men movies no longer count ,
and also............
and also ..............
they just look at you like
so I thought this movie did a great job of brining those SONY characters into the MCU , well , for everyone , but probably even more so for just the causal fans
this movie could have been real complicated , but they were able to find a way , to keep it simple
yea , there are a few moments in there you just just sorta have to go with it , but it's a comic book movie , not War and Peace
loved the movie , but the ending
thousand questions
everyone forgets about Peter Parker , what about his teachers , school records , does he have a drivers license , how will he get into MIT without any references ,
etc etc etc
are we getting two Venoms now
are we going to have MCU spider-man , and a SONY Spider-man
I got a thousand questions
there are rumors that Andrew Garfield could return to Amazing Spider-man 3
big rumors that SONY wants to bring back Emma Stone as Spider Gwen , and also looking at Anya Taylor-Joy for the Black cat
anyways............
Morbius comes out in a few weeks , maybe well get a few answers , before Doctor Strange stirs up the pot again
