He should, Spiderman Homecoming uses elements from that storyline that make the movie work.
I hated Homecoming. Saw it with my sons. From the Stark-invented tech to the heavy-handed every-color-of-the-rainbow diversity casting.
Thought Keaton as Toomes was great. But thought the militarized nature of the Vulture (like what they did to the Goblin in the McGuire series) was shit. I did prefer Holland's take on Peter to Garfield's.
As a long time comic book reader, my final take on Black Panther is that there is no honest discussion to be had. It’s either GOAT or you are a salty racist. Even black comic book fans get shut down quickly when legitimate points about the movie not being as good as the hype get pointed out. Articles like “Killmonger the GOAT villian ever”? Just stop.
It’s a solid 8/10 movie, but the hype beasts are real.
Having seen quite a number of the comic book-based movies I give the GOAT prize to...
GOTG 2.
Keep in mind, I never read any of the Guardian book series. And maybe that helps since I have nothing to compare the film's characterizations and storyline fidelity to.
But, for my money, that movie hits all of the right notes and found the perfect balance of action, pathos and humor that I want in a superhero tale.
Come at me, bros.
