moviesAug 5, 202629266

Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Brand New Day, starring Tom Holland, surpassed $1 billion worldwide after six days of release, making it the second-fastest film ever to reach that milestone. Variety reported that only 2019’s Avengers Endgame was faster, reaching about $1.2 billion in its opening weekend. The film’s box office surge coincides with public praise from reviewers calling it a triumphant, emotional entry for the character and with the Russo Brothers sharing new artwork celebrating Brand New Day’s record domestic opening weekend that passed Endgame. Actor Jacob Batalon commented on a handshake scene in the film, calling it a “cool little nod” open to interpretation. Coverage also noted the director linked a promise in the movie back to a five-year-old MCU mystery, signaling potential future crossover developments. The movie’s rapid haul reinforces Sony and Marvel’s current theatrical momentum and sets up further studio promotion and sequel or crossover expectations.

I know that Spider-Man is an extremely popular character but find this quite baffling. Why *this* Spider-Man movie?

Definitely says something about how far the surveillance state has come since THE DARK KNIGHT that Spider-Man builds Batman’s “no one man should have this power” system and it barely even merits a mention in BRAND NEW DAY.

Though I do appreciate the fantastical indulgence of it being a cop who has a problem with it.

Even Ned’s system (and app?) of tracking spider-man across the city using social media and CCTV and pushing to his wearable ect, is kinda handwaved away

I think it’s both symbolically important and a bit of a screenwriters’ crutch (not gonna rewrite my whole thread on it) but yeah wow Culture has Shifted on private and public tech surveillance. His AI assistant replacing Ned is also an interesting beat.

I had some thoughts after seeing #Spider-Man #BrandNewDay, so I wrote them up for #ReelRank News: blog.reelrank.net/i-positively... I won't spoil what I thought of the film by telling you how many points out of 10.0 its racking lacked (most of them), but I will tell you I had feelings! #FilmSky 📽️

Jacob Batalon on the “muscle memory” handshake scene in ‘SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY’ “I don’t know. I feel like it’s really up to interpretation for everyone. For me, I think it’s a really cool little nod, so hopefully things happen from there.” (via www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...)

Tuesday night's screening of Spider-Man: Brand New Day was absolutely packed, and after watching it, I now understand the hype. Not only is it among the most exciting MCU entries, but it's also the best Spider-Man movie since Spider-Man 2!

While i liked the previous tom holland apidey movies, i think what makes brand new day his best one is that we are finally moving on from nano suit spider man to an actual costume Abd it makes a world of difference
