I saw it a couple of weeks ago, and am sorry I missed this thread 'til now.
I really enjoyed it.
I loved that the Vulture's whole plot was scavenging - like a real vulture does. I loved it even more that they never drew attention to it, or even mentioned it.
That's a rare opinion. (I'm neither agreeing nor disagreeing with it, it's just I don't run into it a lot.)Originally Posted by diamondlil
I'm so with you on that! That's why Jessica Jones is the fist bit of MCU I don't plan to buy for myself on Blu-Ray. I assume The Punisher will be the second. (I haven't seen Power Man and Iron Fist *yet*, so I can't judge them. Yes, I know it's named Luke Cage.)
Especially in something Marvel related!Oh and Canada was mentionedI always think of Alpha Flight when I hear Canada
So the obvious question is, what's your first?
Yes, I've been hearing that a lot, too.
Speaking of corny youth-dialogue (Phil), one line that always annoyed me in Captain America: Civil War was when Spider-Man says 'that really old movie, The Empire Strikes Back'; it was played straight, not like he was teasing them. It just came across as artificial to me - I don't believe anybody would call it that: they wouldn't need to introduce it, they'd just say The Empire Strikes Back. Any more than I'd say 'that really old film, Cassablanca' or Citizen Kane... I might say 'The Marx Brothers movie A Night At The Opera', but that's only because people who know me might wonder if I meant a Queen album (or even a Blind Guardian album).
Homecoming made that line worse - he's somebody who plays with Star Wars Lego and has an AT-AT toy in his room, and he said that! Gah!
... sorry... mini-rant ends.
Oh, I loved that post-credits scene!
