Crazy how quickly this movie is making money. This movie should in theory have less draw than No Way Home and people are eating it up. Shows what a good story can do. There is for not at least no Spider-Man fatigue.

I hope the lesson here is not “just make more Spider-Man” movies.

I've yet to see it, so can't comment on its predictability. However with what's going on in the world today, I can certainly see people wanting to escape reality for a bit with a new variation of feel-good story format that's well-worn and comfortable.

    i watched this in a double-feature with the equilizer 3.. it also suffered a rather boring story, but it was much more cathartic. it provided a level of satisfaction the recent spidey did not. it actually provided the context of a much more identifiable good over evil..that familiarity you mentioned.

    im prolly just comparison-whining apples and oranges
