Aesthetics and memes

(🚨 spoilers ahead 🚨)

- Tom Holland is good casting for Peter because he really just looks like Some Guy

- conversely I think Zendaya is so overly recognisable that every time I see her I just think ‘that’s Zendaya… and she is Meechee’

- Sadie Sink looks English but isn’t #weird #creepedout

- Said Sink is also a really good Jean

- the irony isn’t lost on me that Sadie also looks like comic accurate Mary Jane Watson

- I think Daredevil would’ve been a better supporting hero than Punisher. like you’re seriously gonna pit Frank up against this shit?

- also it would’ve been great to have Jean possess Matt and get her brain scrambled by how he sees the world (and his Catholic guilt), like I wanna see other people who Jean can’t really possess (or at least not easily)

- this is probably obvious but a consistent issue with the Punisher is that he was clearly created for more mature audiences but they gotta tone it down for 1) a mainstream movie and 2) a mainstream movie with Spiderman. so all you get is a guy wearing Punisher merch cosplaying as him because you can’t really show Frank killing people

- so you can’t even really even have the ‘guns vs no guns’ discussion between Frank and Peter (which they made an attempt at), because Peter is always going to win that argument, because it’s That Type Of Movie. but on that note Frank shooting Peter by accident is hilarious

- hence, why Daredevil would’ve been the better side hero, not least because he wouldn’t shoot Peter by accident and would probably be more inclined to cooperate (I honestly don’t even know why they went with Punisher)

- Matt would also have a lot of empathy with the sensory overload thing that Peter was going through

- poor Hulk/ Banner being used as a fucking plot device lol

- there’s no resolution to a couple of story lines (was Bruce released? what happened to the director of department of damage control? so Jean never gets to even bury Sara’s body? how did Yelena know about V-Max?)

- so, um, how does this Jean fold in with the rest of the wider universe??? aren’t the OG X-men coming back in Doomsday??
