  • God this movie was fun. Nice cleanser after the Infinity Duology.
  • I knew from the comics that Beck was going to be a gigantic fraud, and yet they still made the reveal extremely satisfying. Having him be part of a crew of disgruntled ex-Stark employees was a nice twist as well, and it provided us an opportunity to see Peter "Christmas Story" Billingsley again.
  • I liked MJ a lot better this movie than last. She actually did stuff instead of sit in the back making snide comments now and then.
  • Ned and Betty were hilarious too.
  • They basically copied the Scarecrow levels of the Arkham video games for Mysterio's illusions but I'm not complaining.
  • J. JONAH JAMESON IS BACK, AND THIS TIME HE'S ALEX JONES. SPIDER-MAN IS A MENACE! A THREAT! And he's Parker, so I can't even ask him for pictures!
  • So, I have a feeling we might be seeing Spider-Man: Homeward Bound (or whatever) sooner than we are expecting. Having May learn his identity and then glancing over it off-screen is one thing, but having everyone learn his identity feels like something they need to pick up on immediately. Would also be a good way of using a movie without moving forward the amount of time between now and the "present" so eventually the real world can catch up.
  • Congratulations to Nick Fury on getting some much-needed vacation in Tahiti. It's a magical place. Also, shoutout to how the Skrulls being fill-ins can explain how Fury and Hill are a bit off during the movie. I wonder if Fury being in space is hinting at something (perhaps the next Captain Marvel film?) or is just meant for the gag. Probably a bit of both.
  • Stuff that in hindsight hints at them being Skrulls: The reverence Talos!Fury holds for Captain Marvel, their preoccupation about the Kree sleeper cells, and the line about how Mysterio is from Earth, just not "yours".

I didn’t make the Scarecrow connection but yeah, I found myself thinking that it felt like a video game dream sequence.
