You all are forgetting the sheer amount of times Marvel has put in misdirections like this in their trailers.
For Infinity War... Thanos: "This does put a smile on my face." That line, given on Titan in the trailers, would have made no sense in the movie since he just killed Gamora and was only in the trailers as a way for the audience to feel intimidated.
For Loki... Mobius (to Loki): "You picked up the tesseract breaking reality, we need your help fixing it." This was a huge misdirection. Reality was literally *fixed* in the first five minutes of Loki and they used the Infinity Stones as paper weights.
When Strange says "we created the multiverse" he could easily be talking about what they did in Endgame. Sure, it's possible it's lazy writing, but you should never ever take Marvel's plotting at face value in their trailers. Hell, they had Hulk in the fight in Wakanda in the IW trailers. [Reply]

I think the actor is great but I don't like how he became IM Jr. Spidey should be inventing his own gear and struggling with feeling alone. That sarcasm and wit despite all the depressing shit in his life. He doesn't give up - he doesn't bend on his morality.
It's also about being a kid and having to pretend to be an adult, surrounded by adult heroes, without the experience they all have.
And if they were going to do Venom they should have pulled that off while he was out in space. Golden opportunity missed there... [Reply]

Marvel and Sony’s biggest fight right now is about Venom, according to rumors, anyway. The word is that’s why Sony backed out of their agreement with Marvel because they wouldn’t include Venom in Spidey 3. Word is that Marvel was… less than impressed.. with this incarnation of Venom. [Reply]

Sony just doesn't want to give up what they see as their own personal ATM with a popular Marvel character, even if they are dicking up the product. Marvel comics have generally turned to trash as of late, but what Marvel is doing with the MCU is damned near unparalleled. We're talking Star Wars hype when Star Wars was THE thing in movies.
Sony needs to let Marvel have the remaining rights to whatever characters they have for a nice chunk of cash and future revenues, and let Marvel work their MCU magic on them. It will be amazing when the MCU finally has control over their entire collection of characters. [Reply]

I am glad others think so as well. Venom the movie was stupid. Hardy did a horrible job. [Reply]
Spider-Man has turned the Avengers to dust — on YouTube and Twitter, at least.
Despite leaking online a day early, the teaser trailer for “Spider-Man: No Way Home” has set a new all-time record for the most global views in the first 24 hours, with 355.5 million views. That far surpasses the previous record held by the trailer for “Avengers: Endgame,” which picked up 289 million views when it debuted in December 2018.
According to Sony Pictures, the “No Way Home” trailer also earned the most-ever mentions on social media of any movie preview over the first 24 hours, with 4.5 million mentions worldwide. Domestically, “No Way Home” drew 2.91 million mentions over 24 hours, nearly doubling the 1.94 million mentions over the same period for “Endgame’s” trailer.
Damn! So much for "super hero fatigue" I guess. Movie goers all over the globe are addicted to whatever cookie cutter/ assembly line shit that Kevin Feige is shoveling out these days. The MCU seems to be flat out unstoppable at this point. I for one am burnt out from it after being letdown by Endgame (the time travel elements were silly/stupid/ridiculous imo and took up too much of the run time, Hulk being completely worthless & neutered and Thor being a fat ass for cheap laughs. Just a lame film all around especially when compared to Infinity War ). I haven't even bothered with Disney + and their streaming MCU shows.
Anyways, this Spider Boy movie looks like its going to really pander to the hardcore fans by bringing back all of the old bad guys thru out the years. [Reply]

Those are some bold words. Endgame was a perfect way to end the Infinity Saga, even if they had to introduce time travel. That was the only way they could make everything work. I also can't think of another movie that had the responsibility of wrapping up a 22 film story arc that lasted more than a decade.
And you're damn right they're pandering to fans. And I don't give a shit. Spider-Man 2 is the greatest super hero movie of all time and I do not care what anyone says. Alfred Molina being back is nothing but good news. Same with Dafoe. [Reply]

I do agree with the take on The Hulk... that just pissed me off to no end that they made The Hulk such a worthless character in the movies. [Reply]
