The best part of all this: we really did get our John Hughes Spidey movie.

Spoiler

Just like we got a political thriller with Winter Soldier

I love when the internet loses it's mind over what sounds like the above average version of just another marvel film.

 

[Prompto]

The longest game

 

[Falchion]

Can't believe this is rocking a 97% on RT right now. I can't wait to see this.

So edgy.

 

[MugiwaraCole]

so basically, 2017 in terms of comic book movies so far

Eww at Logan.

Bringing this post back for Justice League tho lol

 

[Inferno313]

I love when the internet loses it's mind over what sounds like the above average version of just another marvel film.

"One of the best examples of the genre, period"

"One of the best films of the year"

"the most ideal big-screen take on Spidey yet"

"Tom Holland is the best movie Spider-Man ever."

Meh, sounds barely above average.

Like really, do you fanboys even read these threads before posting your lukewarm takes?

 

[jack_package_200]

I predicted this would be a 72% on RT.

Crow is tasting pretty good right now.

Eww at Logan.

Go and stay go

 

[GAMEPROFF]

LOL 8/10 Average Score.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I like it more when people get super salty about other people enjoying things. Actually I don't, I fucking hate these shitposts.

 

[BronsonLee]

Clearly RDJ used all that money he got paid for the film to pay off the critics

[Inferno313]

LOL 8/10 Average Score.

Whats the Dark Knight? 7,9?

8.6, I think.

Also, guys, the Tomatometer is probably going to drop as more reviews come in. The average score is definitely going to drop.

That's not hating. Same thing happened with Civil War, Gotg 2, Wonder Woman, Logan. It's not gonna stay at 97% and 8/10, but that doesn't make it any less great.

Throw this gif in when Black Panther drops and Marvel does Batman better than DC did.

Spider-Man: Homecoming brings the character back to his basics. In the process, it shows why he's always been such a popular draw, and it makes a strong argument for a branch of the MCU/Sony heroverse that operates on a smaller scale than the rest of the world. Here, the small size isn't just a story necessity, or a franchise strategy. It's the heart of the story, and an argument for smaller hero stories in general.

That the movie comes off as loose and sweet and light on its feet as it is feels like sort of minor Marvel miracle. Whether Watts can swing this boy into super manhood with his endearing humanity intact is a question only time, and the next sequel, will tell.

B+

And with that, I have enough money to buy lunch today. ;_;

When was the last time any of those reviewers were right? they always spout this hyperbolic shit.

Logan for example, that movie was okay at best.

Not saying the movie will suck but y'all should probably lower your expectations. I for one got burned too many times and learned my lesson.

Yep, just your run of the mill great Marvel movie.

Gonna need Kevin Feige to take over the Netflix heroes after Infinity War. Thanks in advance.

Ive always assumed that most Super Hero movies get their scores inflated on RT by at least 10%.

Many people see Logan as one of their favorite superhero movies ever. Same will probably happen for Homecoming. Just cause you disagree with reviewers doesn't make their opinion wrong.

 

[Farsi]

What does Wonder Woman have to do with any of this?

Had a mediocre villain like this movie probably does too.

 

[JimiNutz]

Too bad this one has to be part of some damn cinematic universe again, so I need to catch up on like 10 different movies to understand anything that is going on here, and there's no easy way to see all of MCU on Netflix or some other service. I'd rather not put in the effort of finding every movie. Fuck cinematic universes.

That's not how it works at all, just like you don't have to go back and read every single Marvel comic to be able to pick up a new book. This is a self contained story with a few minor references to one previous film. Even then I'm pretty sure you'll be able to work out exactly what's going on.

 

[Inferno313]

Ive always assumed that most Super Hero movies get their scores inflated on RT by at least 10%.

You know how RT scores work, yes? They're a percentage of the critics that liked the film, not a numerical rating of the film's quality.

 

[HStallion]

Had a mediocre villain like this movie probably does too.

I'll wait till I see it myself but many of the reviews go on about how Keaton seems to be a good villain for once.

 

[Boke1879]

Did some people really think this was going to review poorly?

Trailers always looked like it was going to be a fun and enjoyable movie. This shit is going to make bank.

 

[Mrbob]

Only 97%? I only watch 100% fresh movies now.

Eww at Logan.

Bringing this post back for Justice League tho lol

Yeah justice league will ruin the good times.

 

[kswiston]

Hard to say no to a Teen Choice Award winner for Best Kiss.

 

[Ithil]

Ah yeah, I forgot how video game ratings worked.

6 is terrible
7 is mediocre
8 is good
9 is great
10 is Oscar worthy material

Correction

10 is good
9 is ok
8 is average
7 is bad
6 is the worst thing ever

There is nothing below that.

 

[Raguel]

So freaking pumped for this. I just knew this will be the best Spider-Man ever. Never doubted it. Also, just love love love that everytime a Marvel film gets great reviews, all the trolls comes out. So much salt. So delicious.

 

[Ithil]

An RT thread ain't complete without an Armond White review.

There won't be any White review until the generous consensus is out. He waits til critics generally like or dislike it then writes a nonsensical review touting the opposite.

You liking something less or not at all doesn't make other's impressions wrong.

I'd say that an issue with the reader, because reviewers certainly don't apply that mindset when they rate something a 6, 7, 8, etc

I saw he wrote a pretty harsh review of The Book of Henry.

He isn't always a contrarian. Just most of the time

 

[Frozenprince]

I'm not saying Tobey was amazing but he was way better than that clown Garfield, i hated him as Spidey and Peter Parker.

At least Garfield TRIES to throw some quips out there.

They sucked ass, but he tried. Tobey is just a giant sad sack.

It's nice that they're giving Keaton some depth to his character and not wasting him. I would be perfectly happy if he's just very good, doesn't have to be great. That alone would make him above average for Marvel films.
