has shattered the record for single-day views, proving that millions of Marvel fans are still eager for Spider-Man movies. Director Destin Daniel Cretton is taking fans into a new era of Peter Parker’s life, years after high school, when he’s living a lonely young adult life, while dedicating most of his time and existence to being Spider-Man.
And, from the look of things, being Spider-Man will keep Peter plenty busy.has already revealed more Marvel characters than we’ve ever seen in one solo character film. The list includes The Punisher and Bruce Banner , C-list Spider-Man baddies like The Scorpion , Boomerang, Tarantula, and the Ninja organization known as The Hand. Then there are the characters we have yet to fully see, includingMarvin Jones III). Rumor has it that even Charlie Cox’s Daredevil could show up – so again, it’s looking likemovies in the MCU, often referred to as the “Home Trilogy.” However, there has been one consistent criticism of the series, and that is the notion that they aren’t really films about Spider-Man, so much as they are MCU movies, featuring Spider-Man. The presence of Tony Stark/Iron Man dominated the first two films, which were ostensibly about Peter Parker stepping out of the shadow of Tony’s tutelage. The third film,, was a meta-narrative about the legacy of the Spider-Man movie franchise’s wild twists and turns, and the toll it’s exacted on its three stars . What fans have wanted, but haven’t gotten, is a true Spider-Man movie experience that is like the comics: Namely, Peter Parker/Spider-Man patrolling his “friendly neighborhood” of NYC, running across all kinds of quirky B or C-list villains; occasionally having to handle a big boss-level threat , while bumping into any number of other local heroes along the way. Silver Age Marvel Comics helped cement Spider-Man as a perfect bridge between street-level vigilantes and big, world-saving superheroes, paving the way for the character to become the global brand that he is today. And yet, no iteration of Spider-Man films has tried to recreate that Silver Age formula, until now.trilogy was very character-focused and always honored the tradition of Spider-Man’s villains being as Shakespearean in their complexity and tragic origin as the hero himself. That said, Sony’s legal limitations at the time of Raimi’s films prohibited the Spider-Man movies from including the larger sandbox of Marvel characters, organizations, and other staples that were regularly featured in Spider-Man comics.tried to reboot the film series in a world where the Marvel Cinematic Universe was fully established and on its way to billion-dollar greatness on the back offranchise into an entire cinematic universe that would rival Marvel Studios – only to find out how much more fans preferred the MCU.seems like definitive proof that director Destin Daniel Cretton has finally brought all facets of Spider-Man’s comic book experience together into one film. The story is very much focused on Peter Parker , now living a lonely young adult life in a world where everyone close to him is either dead or has forgotten his existence . As Peter tries to adjust to a new work/life balance as Spider-Man, he also goes through a “maturation” asThat story premise creates a much better framework for the MCU crossovers in the film. Vigilantes like The Punisher would logically be a problem for Spider-Man while he’s policing the streets, since Peter and Frank Castle have very different views on the use of lethal force. Peter’s mutation creates a logical pathway for him to seek counsel from Bruce Banner , who is an expert in good people struggling withIf that doesn’t sound like a classic Silver Age Spider-Man comic experience, no film ever will. And fans seem to know the difference. The typical online chants of “this film is too overcrowded!” or “Is this still even a Spider-Man film? LOL” have been far more muted this time. The record-breaking trailer views and overwhelmingly positive response to the vibe, look, and MCU connections of Cretton’s film all suggest fans were always just looking for this Marvel gumbo to be cooked up the right way, with all the necessary ingredients.
