Glad society has swung back around on this bc I’m tired of defending my culture to Gen Z.

The way that “You Just Had to Be There” was popularized in 2013 can’t be overstated.

If Thomas and Alito both retired this term, there would be ~no realistic path back to a liberal or even moderate majority on SCOTUS for decades.

They’re not retiring, so a slim path remains alive. But we really, really need to win the Senate.

@eaglebyte22 @inmyheadrf @nvocne An MCU film and a Nolan film are categorically pretty different for the above reason.

[Zac Peal @zpeal]

@inmyheadrf @eaglebyte22 @nvocne The original post was “extremely different movies” these movies appealed the same audiences. It’s weird to claim the intention of Barbenheimer is different in a convo where an organic movement by audiences drove the outcome.

There isn’t a major difference in the outcome.

[Zac Peal @zpeal]

@inmyheadrf @eaglebyte22 @nvocne I think the mistake with Barbenheimer was the inherent assumption there wasn’t audience overlap when there clearly was.

@eaglebyte22 @nvocne Are Spider-Man and The Odyssey not?

DC vs Marvel is so weird bc these are all excellent movies with just wildly different goals and tones and intended audiences.

Spider Man Brand New Day opening ended the MCU vs DC debate

Time for Tom to hang up the tights, apparently.

‘SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY’ has crossed $1B globally.

Budget was $225M

[Zac Peal @zpeal]

Can someone quickly write an article about how he needs to retire from these roles to doom Hollywood to 1000 years of darkness?

[Variety @Variety]

“Spider-Man: Brand New Day” and “The Odyssey” have fueled the biggest collective weekend in box office history, with roughly $430M across all movies in the marketplace.

Prior to this, the top three weekends were led by “Avengers: Endgame” ($402M collectively), “Avengers: Infinity War” ($314M collectively) and “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” ($313M collectively).

three major publications in the space of a few days all running some variation of “when will tom holland grow up?” or comparing his career to someone else’s is genuinely so tiring. critique his work all you want, but this narrative is becoming incredibly nasty and repetitive.

[Zac Peal @zpeal]

It’s time to start unsubscribing from these hacks until they stop writing this slop.

[New York Magazine @NYMag]

Tom Holland, like Peter Parker in the new Spider-Man movie, has been dealing with some growing pains. ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ starts off by speeding through what would have been Peter’s college years to pick up with him in his early 20s. He has also been going through a spider puberty of sorts, causing his wrists to sprout organic web slingers that render his old mechanical ones unusable and making him prone to fits of black-eyed aggression. This is his equivalent of a spider molting, shedding its old exoskeleton to hopefully emerge — stronger and more resilient — into adulthood. “But the movie has no idea what that adulthood might look like,” writes film critic Alison Willmore.

Part of this is a Spider-Man problem — growing up has never entirely suited Peter Parker, who’s always felt most natural as some kind of student. But part of this is an issue with Holland, who’s risen to movie-star status on the strength of the Marvel character but who himself is teetering on the edge of a grown-up career that feels a lot less certain. When Jon Bernthal’s Punisher, with whom Spider-Man is inexplicably paired up for this installment, growls, “I’m gonna kill that kid,” it’s a reminder that Holland also just spent ‘The Odyssey’ playing a boy waiting to come of age while elsewhere in the same film actual children get enlisted into war.

“Timothée Chalamet is the same age but plays characters whose core tension is their desire to be taken seriously as men despite their youthfulness,” writes Willmore. “Unlike him, Holland feels perched on the edge of the unknown — like the movies aren’t allowing him to grow up because they’re not sure what a grown-up Holland character entails.”

Read Willmore on how, in the latest ‘Spider-Man’ film, Holland, like the superhero he’s playing, struggles to show us what might be next: https://t.co/NwGHjLMRXG
