The costumes being visible in the pictures (posters) would have enticed more people. Their marketing is weird. The movie is out neXt month and there is still no 2nd trailer.
Why do none of them have real masks? Imagine Spider-Man without the mask...
Could be worse, I guess.
That's exactly my thought. Or why do the three of them even bother? These masks are not hiding anything at all.
I just don't understand Sony and wanting no synergy between these movies and Spider-Man. They want to bank of his catalog but have no idea how to build a universeThat's exactly my thought. Or why do the three of them even bother? These masks are not hiding anything at all.
In once sense, I agree. But... I’ve sometimes mused about how to make the Supes/Clark Kent disguise more convincing. And a common response is: “Dude, it’s fantasy — the willing suspension of disbelief.” So… if we allow that a pair of glasses work as subterfuge, I guess we must cut the same slack for feeble masks. I.e., we accept — and pretend to ourselves — that the masks are more concealing than they actually are…?...But my issue with the masks is there's zero practicality. Either make actual masks that hide their faces or don't bother at all. These look really silly.
I guess I can accept it more with Superman because it has become an iconic part of the character after all those years, and to be fair, in many cases like the Reeve version he changes his hair, posture, voice, mannerisms and truly transforms to a different character, while here it just feels like they just didn't bother to think this through.In once sense, I agree.

And again it's such a small gripe, because the costumes would look ugly even with proper masks, but I just find it a weird choice.
Oh we're definitely discussing it in the misc films board lol
Not so. I've seen a fair bit of schadenfreude — "pleasure derived from an other's misfortune." That's a kind of discussion. :wink:
