This year’s 12th edition of the Scary Movies festival at Film at Lincoln Center premiered Ari Aster’s extended version of “Midsommar” this past Saturday.
A little easter egg from the trailer. Bruce Banner on the wall in Peter Parker's science class.
The more I see stuff correlating to this new Spidey movie the more I'm starting to think they are taking a very meta "Deadpool"-esque route with this new film. That's all good, I'd rather a a self-referential Spider-Man film than the more serious style of the Andrew Garfield films. Believe it or not, "Deadpool" and, to a certain extent, "Guardians of the Galaxy" have opened up a whole can of worms for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there's now a fanbase that rejects the MCU that would shell out cash to watch these more meta-filled movies. I like it. Oh, and the official trailer finally happened this morning, I know I know, a little late with the news, but it does confirm my belief that this will be a very different film than the other MCUs. Funny how Michael Keaton was basically lambasting the superhero genre in "Birdman" and now he's back in thick of things. Money talks.
