Support NeoGAF

You know, as much as the conversation about Vulture not being more of his comic form is outlandish to me because of how great he is in this movie, if they do Rhino again I hope he's a big tough man in a dumb suit. I love how goofy he is.

Also me and a friend were rewatching this over the weekend, and the idea came up that the now sold Avenger's tower could of been handed off to Oscorp. I don't know if they'll incorporate Green Goblin for a third time in a Spiderman film franchise, and if they did do it I except they'd do it down the line instead of any time soon. But any thoughts on that idea?

I brought it up a lot earlier in this thread a couple months ago

It makes sense, they never say who bought it so it could become Baxter Tower or an Oscorp building tbh

I'm thinking Norman bought it and Harry will be brought in next movie as Peter's friend, no Norman though

99% of the people I see on Facebook don't have pictures with their parents on their Facebook at all. Most people I know keep their parents completely separated from their Facebook.

What an odd defense. I'd be curious as to how 99% of the people you see have zero photos of their parents on their social media: do they not eat dinner with them? Visit them? Hang out with them? Are they dead? Are they estranged? Maybe those people you visit don't actually post anything on social media? Heck, there are grandma and parent memes of them embarrassing their grand-kids / kids on facebook, and can easily point to people who have pictures of their parents on their facebook. Your 99% is way off and can be considered an anomaly. Maybe, perhaps, you don't have many people on your social media that uses it? Like, who's not in a photo with their parents? Who are these people?

 

[Inferno313]

This is why cellphones and social media ruined film

jesus

 

[LionPride]

I love my mom, I have zero photos of her on my Insta

I have friends who adore their parents, they may have one photo of them celebrating a Bday/a parent day. Maybe

If anything, it'll be on SC tbh. No one uses FB anymore really, especially not people in HS

Wait, it's SS talking, why am I caring nevermind.

 

[Subpar Spatula]

"Who uses fb nowdays?"
Enough to help sway the US election.

Ok, but teenagers not using FB in lieu of Insta/Snap is absolutely a thing. I work in a marketing office for a university, we use social media to attract 17 year olds to our campus. Lion is spot-on.

 

[LionPride]

Teenagers use Snapchat, Twitter, and Insta above all else here really.

We ain't puttin pics of us with our parents on Twitter and Insta a whole lot and not a whole lot on SC either

So....yeah

I'm just not much of a picture guy. My mom takes one every time I see her, but I don't think I have a single picture of her on my Facebook, but they exist in the house and in her phone. This isn't a stretch. I have about as many friends with pictures of their parents on facebook as much as I have friends that don't. I would only recognize at best 6 of my friend's parents off the street, either because they had a very distinct look or because I've known them for over a decade. I'll recognize my friend's mom and dad who drove me to summer camp every day, not my crush's mom or dad just because there might be a picture in a stucked away album.

Weren't we talking about teenagers?

 

[SpaceWolf]

Yeah. He was in the audience at MIT when Tony gave his little VR demonstration in Civil War.

Tony Stark makes everything worse, part 21.

 

[caliph95]

This is one of the most in depth conversation we had on Homecoming

by your own account you're not much a picture guy so you obviously wouldn't have any photos.

the point still stands.

 

[LionPride]

I like how when someone has an actual teenager and someone who works in marketing don't use FB, the platform where most would have pics of their parents, and that teens really don't upload pics of their parents at all, you still have someone saying some ol bullshit

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

Maybe Liz is not much of a picture person either?

This is the dumbest criticism I've heard of a film in forever.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

this social media convo is hilarious.

Regarding this film. Thought it was an OK to average film. Good for comic books films though. Will need to watch it again.

 

[Litan]

Everytime SubSpa pops up in an MCU thread, the discussion turns to some stupid, meaningless shit.
What are people even arguing this for? It doesnt matter one bit in the plot or any other aspect of the film.

It's nitpicking to the extreme.

Dear god. You just don't understand it. No one gives a single fuck about anyone else's parents on social media, especially people's who don't really hang out together much, so it's completely pointless to bring up that as some kind of flaw/plothole in Homecoming. Even if they see some picture with a friend and their parents in them, not everyone burns that image into their longterm memory and remembers them for all eternity.

Hell, I've personally met & talked with parents of close friends (i.e. I helped a friend move and his parents were there) and I probably wouldn't remember them if they walked up to me tomorrow.

Even in this day and age of all of dem Faceboogies, Snafuchats & Instacraps, it's not weird to have very little knowledge of the people you go to school with. Stop making it an issue.

 

[caliph95]

This conversation is always hilarious in the Spider-Man thread

it would ruin the twist the movie wanted to have. well, the twist would still be there, just not so late in the movie.

 

[Bobo Dakes]

I get tagged in photos people take of me, I just don't go to events and try to take pictures of myself (most of the time).

Sub, why do you do this? Why?

I broke my one rule to never acknowledge Subpar's post regarding...well anything. I apologize lol

All your arguments are still so so confusing

I don't think so, they were echoed by a few posters so I'm glad some people got where I was coming from. Not trying to convert those who did like the movie more.

Anyway, Shocker was cool, right? Only gonna talk about the things I liked about it going forward.

Don't need to censor yourself

But yeah he was a cool henchmen

this thread is weird

you people are weird, man

it's a movie about a spider-boy that wants to fuck

that's it, man

Funny enough that was the chemistry was the best part and feels like a romantic comedy forced to be a super hero movie

(Probably was considering)

I checked out early on, but the messier that movie the got, the more interesting it became to me. And the ending got a tear of out of me so I can give it some props.

Plus, we'll always have that deleted cemetery scene that I can't believe they actually shot so ... I guess I kind of liked it.

 

[mrkgoo]

I crushed on my fair share of girls in high school. Never knew what their dads looked like. But I did know their mums.

But what would I know about today. I didn't have the internet back then.

*shrug*

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I have pics of my mom and dad on my Tinder and Grindr profiles, y'all are unloving jackasses

 

[SpaceWolf]

what is this thread now

 

[Inferno313]

what is this thread now

I guess you could say it's become...

subpar

 

[Broken Joystick]

I've been crushing on someone for like two months now and I've no idea what their parents look like.

why is this even an argument on here

what the fuck is going on

Nah screw that cemetery scene

because people write their NeoGAF reviews of movies as they're watching them instead of fuckin' paying attention

 

[LionPride]

The one reason I even like TASM and parts of TASM 2 is because Stone and Garfield's chemistry is so so good

I fully expect Holland and Zendaya to have dope chemistry

Yeah, I love it because it's so bad and non-sensical.

Eh ... if that's what you want to go with.

 

[Subpar Spatula]

because people write their NeoGAF reviews of movies as they're watching them instead of fuckin' paying attention

anyone with criticism = folks who don't pay attention to movies
opposite of criticism = bestest watchers of movies?

idk what you're doing with that line of thinking

 

[Bronx-Man]

This is the tagline for FilmGAF, now and forever

 

[bossmonkey]

Sub, why do you do this? Why?

Some people want attention and some just want to dislike everything just to be the person who says they dislike it. Sounds like the little troll just needs to grow up.

Stay outta da BoxOfficeGAF weekly threads or I'ma hit you with my trusty Film Shovel

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I'm all for well thought out criticism that leads to constructive discussion and arguments but if I have to read "but Tony retired at the end of Iron Man 3!" one more time...

I mean, that's easy because it just takes a minute to review boxofficemojo.

 

[Subpar Spatula]

yo, there's a box office gaf thread?

sweet, i'm in.

 

[SpaceWolf]

but Iron Man retired!

 

[AMUSIX]

Thinking back to high school. I knew what the parents of my friends looked like, and even then, not all of them, but that's pretty much it. A girl I had a crush on? Why the hell would I know what her parents looked like? Heck, one girlfriend, I knew her mother, but never met her father (or wouldn't be able to recognize him) and another I don't think I really paid attention to her parents at all.

 

[BronsonLee]
