Jay 37,378 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 Giacchino's sequel scores are universally good, almost always better than the first (maybe Incredibles 2 is the only one that isn't) so my expectations for Far From Home's score can't be higher!

I mean, I like quite a few of those films but enough already! I believe trends in cinema tend to have a longevity of 25-30 years, so we should be getting there. Have you anything to back up this last statement? Now that Marvel has the FF and Xmen the universe got larger and more opportunistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Everything I'm reading online says this is not set before Infinity War. It's set after Endgame.

Sony is the distributor. Their interests are their own, and somewhat exclusive from Marvel/Disney's. They do not want to risk zero publicity until May.

Wojo 2,453 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I wonder if the results of Thanos' snap is that all who turned to dust in this universe woke up to find themselves in another universe. Far from Home would be showing the Parker and Fury who made the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Black Panther is okay but if I was a kid, I'd have been upset there was no actual panther in it. As a child, I'd get excited if there was a Pink Panther movie on just for the animated main title, then I'd get restless when the actual movie was on and I'd change the channel. bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,556 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I'm waiting for A LEAP IN THE DARK (where the Panther destroys a snooker baize, and goes to a nudist camp), THE RETURN OF THE BLACK PANTHER (where the Panther attacks a masseuse with a vacuum cleaner, and gets electrocuted by sticking his finger in a wall socket), and THE BLACK PANTHER STRIKES AGAIN (where the Panther farts in an elevator, surrounded by gangsters).

I really did not enjoy Infinity War. Am I alone in this? You're not alone. I found Infinity War quite disappointing and unsatisfying. It had great moments in it but... it felt like too much got crammed in there, and the ending was meant to be a 'shock' ending, which was wasted before the film came out because Marvel confirmed the cast list for Endgame and some of the Phase 4 films.

Chen G. 3,953 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Infinity War is a good film. Its just a shame that its attempt at establishing a sense of stakes is undermined by the Marvel aesthetic. 43 minutes ago, Stefancos said: Great score!

Alex 2,835 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I felt the film was far too long with too many character shoehorned in. I felt Thanos was pretty underdeveloped as a villain and he seems to obtain the infinity stones with far too much ease. And obviously the ending, which didn’t really have any gravitas or tension to it as we know they’ll all be back (probably). Saying that, the action sequences and score were good, and some of the humour wasn’t *too* on the nose. I hope they get Luis from Ant-Man to recap it all at the start of Endgame.

In terms of actual characters that have a meaningful role in this film, there really aren't too many: Its basically just Thanos, Tony (who's always a delight), Star-Lord, Gammora, Strange and Wanda. Maybe Thor, as well. The rest are really just extended cameos. Although I suspect it'll play together nicely with Endgame, which is basically the cast of the original The Avengers.
