Yup

Ya thst is something I hope once we get reveal. If they go into detail at all how casting went about. And how long they been signed before revealing. And how hard for said person to keep it secret to friends and family.

Every day that goes by and we don't get our Spider-Man, I blow up a hospital.

The Joker must've been waiting for an announcement too.

I doubt we'll get much info on that stuff, aside from maybe a comment or two down the line from the actor about how they had to hide the news from friends and family.

Be careful with what you say on the internet. I know it was a joke and all, but you know... Just sayin'.

 

[harryoscop]

Feigue wants to destroy us from the heart.

 

[Webhead2006]

Oh I know we likely won't get many details. But there is times actor do talk about stuff like I said when signed vs when announced and how hard it was to keep private. If we get any details I would be happy. Since there is so many conflicting or false news out there.

 

[DOBSON10]

My hope is that the announcement hasn't happened because they changed their mind on setting these movies in High School because they realized there are much, much better actors in the 20-25 age range. But that's just wishful thinking on my part, they are obviously set in stone on the High School angle. Sigh....

Tom Holland and Asa Butterfield are pretty good actors if you ask me.

I too would have liked collage. But going teen is a market mcu hasn't done yet. And it would make the take more unique and different.

But still I serious doubt we will get a full trilogy in hs. First if we go with release every 2 yrs. That be 17,19,21 for a trilogy to be released in. Second with how mcu time is pretty much real time.

No way we can get a hs trilogy out of this if he is a freshmen in civil war and it is set in 2016. Thst already marks us on spidey graduating by 2020. So then solo 1 he likely either be in second half of freshmen yr or sophomore yr. Then infinity 1 and 2 parts with spidey we likely won't see him in school and it only mentioned. Then if solo 2 is out by 19 he then be a junior possibly senior. I still feel with solos we will only see 2 yrs fully covered. And the other two yrs referred and foreshadowed in civil war infinity wars and If spidry shows up on netflix show or shield.

Dude, watch The Impossible then maybe you'll change your mind about Tom.

 

[DOBSON10]

I'm going to use a Baseball analogy, even though I'm not much of a Baseball fan. I look at them as prospects, they show flashes of potential but they still need a few more seasons in the minor Leagues before they get the call up to the Majors.

There are also many other reasons why I don't like the High School angle. But it's a moot point, that is what they are going with. That's why I've been trying to stay out of these threads as much as possible, because I really have nothing to add to the conversation since I hate the idea of the HS angle.

 

[DOBSON10]

I've seen it, actually before he was up for Spider-Man. Watched parts of it again recently as well, doesn't change my mind.

If that was the case I would wait 'till next year for an announcement as long as we didn't get a kid for Spidey

I don't understand why you guys are so against the High-School angle.. especially when you consider that we barely seen it and it was hardly utilized. we've only spent 1th of a quarter in High-School in SM1, the rest of the movie-College and the rest of the Raimi films were set in College.
We spent one movie in High-School for TASM1 but it was BARELY utilized. TASM2 was set in College.

So point is, we've spent FOUR films in College and ONE film in High-School, I don't understand why people are saying "We've seen him in High-School sooo many times, why are they bringing him back" uh.. we've seen him in there ONE time. how can you be tired of it?

 

[Webhead2006]

I still doubt we will get more then 2 solo in hs this go around. As much as they may want to focus on hs more. It just won't work out. Counting on how quickly sequels are released. Then also as I brought up with how mcu time goes.

High-School is a hard sell for a lot of people past high-school age. Once you graduate a lot of the issues and concerns you had during those years don't really matter. High-School just isn't something that sticks with a lot of people in the long run. I was at an event this past week and the main speaker asked how many people kept close contact with at least two people they knew from high school. Of the two-hundred people in attendance, I'd say about five raised their hands.

College on the other hand is where a lot of people meet their spouses, make their professional connections, and just experience more of the world for the first time. And it's got the typical high-school drama (who's dating who, this professor is a total tool, etc.) plus more adult drama like keeping a job, making rent, trying to make a name for yourself, etc. It's weirdly more relatable for most people--even if they didn't attend college themselves.

That's not to say that there aren't successful high-school movies that hit a broad audience--it's just that there don't seem to be all that many. And really, how much time is really going to be spent in high-school in the movie/s anyway? Unless the main plot/villain somehow directly ties into his schooling, it's just going to be a backdrop.

Great post. You made some really good points.

Has nothing to do with me being tired of the High School angle, I don't like the HS angle period. I don't like kid superhero's, it's just not interesting to me. I didn't find it interesting as a kid and it's even less interesting now.

Great post, but that's really not the point I was trying to make.

We haven't seen Peter In High-School hardly at all, yet people claim they are "Tired of it" High-School gives Marvel more essentials to work with and it also offers more drama than College could. I find it a lot more interesting seeing how a teenage Peter Parker would deal with all the tragedy that surrounds his life than an adult Peter Parker would... that's why I love the Ultimate comics so much. aside from the fact that I grew up reading them, I love all the drama that the stories offer.

I just find it funny how people act like we've had 7 movies in High-School when in fact we've only had one we've also never seen a Peter Parker this young in film before, so that's also a new dynamic Marvel is offering.

Lol I know. It's not something I'd put on Twitter or anything. But on a superhero site I figured it's a lot safer considering 90% of the people here will get the reference...

Excellent point. I agree I don't really know where the, "Ugh, high-school AGAIN!" is coming from other than maybe it's just, "Ugh, high-school" in general.

And yeah, I think that the tragedy angle of so much happening to someone so young is great. I don't know if I agree that high-school affords more drama (well, meaningful drama) than college, but there is something that's engaging and sad about kids who are forced into adult situations way too soon. It's why I still read/watch a few things about teens despite being a few years out of high school (that and those stories hit some weird maternal instinct I have that makes me go, "They're just so young!" and then cry).

If that's what the movies go for, yeah I'll be really interested. If not... well, there isn't really much outside that about high-school that really excites me honestly--especially over three movies.

If that's different for other people--awesome! More power to them! Just, to me, it'll seem like a bit of a missed opportunity.
