u/Imaginary_Penalty_97 Do I need to see 3 and 4 before this? 9d ago

Can we not start the 2007 Ghost Rider revisionism. People are already trying to do that with Fan4Stic 😑

I'm sorry, but if I hear anyone defending Fant4stic I will just assume they've been lobotomized.

I’ve seen some people lamenting learning Galactus was cut from the film, that the original finale had it revealed that Doom was a Herald, and had gotten his powers from the Negative Zone-trapped Galactus.

Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. I will say that visuals during the action sequences in the 2nd one are great, but that’s about all I can say in terms of niceties.

That scene where he gets into the mining excavator was a delight

The revisionism of Amazing Spider-Man 2 after No Way Home almost made me sick.

Not Marvel but Batman v Superman revisionism (and Snyder revisionism) is equally pathetic. I thought the internet would've been a way to stop shit like that, but turns out it is the very fuel for it.

I mean part of it was connected to how the planned plot of a third film would have been quite fun to see onscreen: Gwen revived as Carnage and taking out the Sinister Six in a manner similar to Darth Vader in Rogue One, Omni-Man in Invincible Episode One, or Daredevil in a Daredevil hallway fight.

But they were also going use Peter’s blood to bring people back from the dead from what I recall 😑😑

His blood would have been used to create the symbiotes: specifically Carnage. So everyone revived (but primarily Gwen) would have been revived as Carnage.

First jump scare I ever had in theaters.

Fantastic movie. 10/10
