I’m certainly gonna see Doomsday. But I’m in the same place as I was after Infinity War/End Game. They were so big, so well done and such a fitting conclusion, I’m not sure the stakes can matter like that again.

It’s been a long time now, so maybe that’s sufficient to recharge, and it could be good, as long as the story is done well.

Remember when Marvel made good movies? It's been a while, but Spider-Man: Brand New Day is excellent. I saw it with my daughter today, and we both loved it. The movie looks amazing. It's got some very funny moments, but the characters are well-written, and the cast is excellent.

I just happened to check Twitter when I got home from seeing it, and someone had downloaded the entire movie.

‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Leaks Online: Millions Watched Bootleg Before It Was Taken Down

I thought Brand New Day was great. Probably my favorite Marvel Spider-Man. Just a good, well-paced story. Dark and light. Changes. Growing up. All the things.

There seemed to be callouts to the original Spider-Man movie, I believe there was at least one Easter egg to the video game, which if so, nice, and just a lot of fun, and considering those, I'm sure more from the Spider-Man universe.

Obviously it will be interesting how it ties into the rest of whatever they are doing right now, but it stands alone just fine for me. Really good stuff.

This is as close to a perfect movie as I have seen.

Possibly the best Marvel movie - that includes Winter Soldier and Endgame.

If you have been lucky enough to avoid spoilers, like I have been, the reveal is huuuuuuuuuggggggggeeeeeee. Completely moved the universe forward and appropriately.

The handling of Peter, MJ and Ned was perfect.

They better not wait this ****ing long to make the next one.

Even though No Way Home has not aged as well for me as some, it would have still been top five for me going in, and I think this is a lot better honestly, so it at least replaces that. It does seem like about the most complete Marvel film to me.

I knew there was a big character but I too kept away from spoilers and my wife and I just looked at each other with that, that's interesting face. Of course since, because everything reads your mind, I have seen tons of actual non-spoiler warnings about it. But that's probably because we talked about it after. I think it can be a very big deal for Marvel depending on how they handle it, but I don't know how they handle anything anymore.

I too thought the handling of MJ and Ned was great. The ending was chef's kiss.

It shows a viable path after Doomsday.

And… youth. Most importantly… youth.
