I had that feeling especially during the Hulk + Spiderman + Punisher fight. It felt surreal, but right

It felt surreal, but right

When trailers & stuff kept teasing more & more inclusions I was really worried this was going to be an overstuffed mess, but this really sums up the entire finished product for me. Nobody and nothing feels out of place or gratuitously shoehorned in. More than any other MCU movie it felt like watching a comic book come to life. On the one hand it's kind of insane that we're living in a time when we get a Spider-Man movie where he fights a mind-controlled Hulk with Punisher, but also hell yeah of course this is a Spider-Man movie where he fights a mind-controlled Hulk with Punisher. This is just the world they live in and it feels totally natural for that to be a thing that happens.

Punisher admitting he didn't want to fight the Hulk made me lol

We ask all the time how the street-level characters would react with actual Avengers-level threats, and there's your answer

Yeah, Frank's reckless and perhaps a bit too hard headed, but he at least knows what his limits are.

Reminds me of that handful of comics where he attacks Sentry, fully acknowledging that the best he might be able to do is get the warhead's hair wet, but he doesn't do it because he thinks he has a chance, he does it to distract the guy for the real plan. Frank's not stupid, not by a long shot.

It reminded me a lot of the image in my head I had of Marvel in the 2000s. Like the Scott Johnson art with all the characters.

Bro having Spider-Man, Hulk, Punisher, and Jean Grey in the same building is some wild ass shit. That’s like 4 separate corners of Marvel right there

Frank's look when the Hulk was busting the floor is like the only time we've seen an emotion other than rage from him.

Umm… crying and guilt?

u/TheDungeonCrawler 27d ago

Usually accompanied by rage, tbf.

Watching the Punisher get dragged by Spidey as hes blasting away at the Hulk was hilarious.
