I gotta say far more comics accurate than I ever would have anticipated
particularly and that it is faithful to the original version of Mysterio's
costume and not the super cool ultimate version that was introduced a few years
ago by Marvel now that was a special effect and for those of you who don't
know in the comics Quentin Beck was a
special-effects expert and stuntman who unable to make it in Hollywood decided
to put on a different type of show super villainy but on that note I can see this
maybe being a clever commentary on a hollywood sees comic book characters
these days right a few shots of Joel Schumacher maybe Thor right with the
cape he's looking kind of Thor like the cape the beard that Thor such a
trendsetter first vision now Mysterio and we all know that this version of
Peter Parker is a very big pop-culture movie fan he keeps using it for his
plans right wouldn't it be interesting if you went up against a villain who has
the same movie reference databases he that he does could be actually really
fun um but I think that you know you might be like well maybe it's just an
old-school comic book version of the character grace well spider-man
homecoming offered such a realistic take on many Spiderman villains from the
vulture to the tinkerer to scorpion and more which was right I thought that was
really well done by the way I really appreciated it so I think that it's
reasonable to assume they're gonna take the same realistic approach for the
sequel spider-man far from home so the only way
I can I can justify this unrealistic costume is if again perhaps it is a
commentary on superhero movies right now back to visual effects that could
totally change this costume by the way because you have to account for lighting
when they're filming the cinematography choices including like the angle from
which the costume is shot you know so often something that looks plasticy you
know as a costume when you see it in an actual film you buy it as armor right
but also in post they could add not only visual changes but they could add sound
effects too and you can see there are some interesting looking discs embedded
in his cape right and you can also see that there's practical purple lighting
bill to the front of his chest his chest
plate speaking of lighting that has always been integral to Mysterio's look
old and new so that also makes it particularly hard to judge on set
pictures that ultimate costume though oh what a beauty it was revealed to be a
robot body sans the head and there was just smoke coming out of the neck and
then a disembodied floating head was projected onto that smoke right so it
was being remote-controlled and so the disembodied head had like a magic mirror
or even cooler a Haunted Mansion madame leota vibe to it that's really great
probably very expensive to do even by today's standards but I don't know I
think maybe it would have been worth it the only thing that I think would work
here is if you do have that amazing commentary on movies and you know you
can have and you can have it with both the villain and the hero that couldn't
maybe make this awesome I'm also really surprised by the full lumberjack beard I
mean it doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the look even though we know
Gyllenhaal likes to sport one in real life
right it's like Chris Evans I'm not gonna dye my hair or shave most
absolutely necessary but again it could be Thor inspired also he might be
wearing the fishbowl I think that considering how comics accurate the rest
of the costume is they might have just not gotten a shot of him in it he seems
to be acting and one of the one of the shots but the the scoop online was that
this was like a final kind of battle so maybe you know spider-man flipped off
that helmet at this point the fishbowl but if he is wearing a fishbowl most in
time that would explain why Quentin doesn't feel the need to shave
all right so I'm very curious to see how this turns out I loved the first film
quite a bit I related to it a lot personally Peter Parker reminded me a
lot I think not only of myself but he had like the Marty McFly vibe which you
know has a nostalgia factor to it that was intentionally so tom hollander said
he modeled it off of Michael J Fox his performance so the problem though is
that the first film it didn't have a big enough feel to it to make a long-term
impression so I hope that they learned from that and they have more epic action
scenes here that really turn up the volume because the foundation the
foundation that was laid with the first film I think is spider strong also it's
Jake Gyllenhaal Jake Gyllenhaal is an amazing actor and if you don't
three with me then you need to you clearly have not seen a need to see
Nightcrawler and also okhta those two films in particular he has a smaller
role in oppa but it's surprisingly nuanced considering how broad he starts
out the movie also are we working our way quite quickly to the sinister six
because as I told you recently and in one of my streams I can confirm to you
from someone I know in the industry that hydro-man is definitely in the movie so
do you like the idea of a potential meta commentary on comic book movies again I
think it's very interesting and also considering how much stunts and VFX are
part of comic book movies these days for reals
well Mysterio better represent and that would be a nice thing that would be a
nice thing to write so share your thoughts down below and of course as
