Best not to bring little kids otherwise theyll probably get scared.
Just a bit to unpack after that.
I sort of get why the critics are a bit underwhelmed - this is very much a movie for those of us who’ve done the required reading, so to speak - but I thought it was excellent.
Very glad I dodged all of the leaks.
-Was so excited to see Reed and Black Bolt (Black Bolt!) that I’d temporarily forgotten they’d spoiled Xavier in the trailers, but the yellow chair and the cartoon theme was just chef’s kiss
- Going to be some fertile freeze frame territory in some of the alternate universe flash throughs after the DVD/Streaming release
- Of course there was going to be a Bruce Campbell cameo
- Between Harry Styles as Starfox and Charlize as Clea(? Happy to be corrected) they’re rolling the dice on some big names as fairly obscure characters, which you love to see.
- In terms of the F4 specifically, I’d bet on the origin story for the 616 versions not having happened yet - reckon we’ll see Stark Tower rebranded as the Baxter Building within the next few movies.
- Still absolutely none the wiser how they wrap all of this up into the next big crossover.
Saw an advance screening on Wednesday night.
Enjoyed it but left a bit underwhelmed (my fault for getting sucked into rumours). Thought for a movie that was about the “multiverse of madness” thought there would be more jumps to different universes.
Yes very much agree. Not just a few jump scare moments, but I was also surprised they went there with a few gruesome/brutal moments in some battle scenes. Won’t say who or what of course, there were a few audible “holy s**t” reactions spoken by people around me.
Just walking into cinema now and there is a family here with 2 young kids ffs and another with pram.
And another just walked in with the baby sleeping in her arms. I feel like walking out and asking for a refund already.
I think we had a similar discussion in The Batman thread - extraordinary decision to take babies into films like this. The sensory overload can be just too much - frightening for the babies themselves and very inconsiderate to other moviegoers. Baffling stuff.
Enjoy the film, hopefully.
