Spiderman: No Way Home (A Moview) Part 2 (Spoiler)

For those who haven’t read the part 1 of my moviews, I wrote my sentiments while watching the film, here’s the article and you can read HERE. So this second part of my review will focus on the comparison of the Spiderman: No Way Home and comics versions, post credit scenes and the possibility and futures of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

If you’re still reading this even after so many warnings that this contains spoiler from the movies, then you might have watched the movie already, so yes, go scroll down, but if not, don’t blame me for spoiling so much! ✌🏻(At this point, I believe that everyone have watched the movie and spoilers is okay.)

Comic to Movie Comparison

The plot line for Spiderman: No Way Home is more similar to the comic version The Amazing Spiderman: One More Day which was published in 2007. This is a 4-part comic story where the crossover for 3 Spiderman happens and yes, I can tell you it is definitely adapted on that story but of course, changes are there to be able to match the current MCU timeline.

In the comics, Aunt May dies of gunshot wound that happened in the Civil War, while in the movie she dies because of a wound caused by Goblin’s glider. In the movie, Peter focused on fixing his present day situation and asked the help of Dr. Strange to erase the world’s memories of his identity. In the comics, He seeks the help from Tony Stark and Dr. Strange to bring back Aunt May’s life; and I believed he seek Dr. Doom and and Dr. Octopus for help.

Encanto: The Non-Gifted Are Also Gifted(A Moview)

The truth is gift or no gift, I’m just as special as everyone in my family.

Mirabel, Encanto.

Disney has made it again, from Moana to Coco to Luca, I think Disney has started to introduce ethnic characters to all the viewers coz for all I know, Pocahontas holds that title ever since. This new movie released at the end of 2021, entitled Encanto, this is based on Colombian culture that tackles about a family who was saved by a magical candle that the light does put out.

The movie is focused on an entire town that was hidden by magic and saved from conquerors. It is led by the Madrigal family’s eldest, Abuela. Each of the Madrigal’s were gifted magic that gave their town hope, light and all things that they need. Let’s enumerate the family tree and their powers:

Spiderman: No Way Home (A Blow-by-Blow Reaction) Part 1 of 2 Moviews

Okay this is the start of a new chapter for our friendly neighborhood Spiderman. Yes, this sequel comes after the scene where Mysterio was killed in the battle of Spiderman however, there was a huge turn of events. You see, I’m starting this article not with my normal lead paragraph in which I get to tell you the $700 Million Blockbuster ticket sales for the first five days after the release or did I? Yap! First day it hit the cinemas everyone is in their seats, with their popcorns and sodas, with cellphones on silent. I know, this is probably not the end game but this is Spiderman. This dude can outlive sales of all the DC movies even without the avengers’ name in the title. (For a DC fan to say that, Spiderman really can have his own universe and still keep staggering sales)

Anyway, back to the blog, you may have noticed the title, I said blow by blow, this term is actually used in journalism and especially in Broadcasting, it means it is a narrative of all the details in order to give a more precise information. This is actually done during reports. I know of it coz I majored in journalism so, I think as an avid fan of Spiderman, my readers deserve my blow by blow reactions in this installment. As you see I have watched all Spiderman movies and read most of the comics even the new Venom movies, I had written all of them in my blog so for me to give an insight on how I actually fill my notes while I watch the movie, yes, I take notes while watching the movie, I think this could help reader understand my entire excitement while watching the movie. This could be the longest article I will be writing (despite my writer’s block) and I hope I do some justice on explaining some events that were actually connected in the MCU universe and my verdict of the movie and post credits.

Again, just a disclaimer, I managed to keep my notes to myself, for more than a month since the day of the release. I promise my readers not to spoil it by writing it a little early coz some countries haven’t watched the Spiderman yet because of pandemic situation. This will be a full on spoiler post. So for those who haven’t watch, stop right here and don’t click more or scroll more. But for those who did, click more and let’s begin the exciting reaction while watching the film.

The Matrix 4, Is This The Closure We All Need?

Matrix – the one and only film that I think had me believing that sci-fi/action movies are a real deal. I haven’t watched Matrix 1 until I was in grade school because of my mom; back when home theaters are still in and we just get to rent movie CDs, a month after the movie was released. I know, I was like in my early grade school when I practically learn to love different genres of movies or should I say, I learn to love movies generally. I wished I just reviewed movies early in my college years just as to show everyone how I actually love watching and try my best to give feedbacks about the scenes I really loved and the scenes I hated. I had so much opinion back then, well anyways, this is not about the past, let’s go back to the main topic, which is The Matrix.

The movie was first released in 1999 and both the 2nd and 3rd sequel were released in 2003. I had the chance to really understand the movie when I was in high school coz that’s the only time I was old enough to understand the whole concept without asking an adult about this-and-that kind of stuff while watching the movie. so the deal is after 20 years, how was the plot had gone? Knowing that they need to come up with a great plot that can make the viewers think that they actually just watched the last sequel as if it was yesterday.

Last December 2021, they managed to fill the void that all the Matrix fans had. One of the question that left us all hanging was Are Neo and Trinity really dead? Yes, coz they actually died on the third sequel which was meant to be the end of the film but is it? or they waited for 20 years to surprise all?

Spencer: The Movie (A Moview)

She’s called “People’s Princess” for a reason. You know her, I know her but not very well as the people of UK do coz she’s the one and only Princess Diana of Wales. You may have heard of her from your history books or many while you’re reading stuff about Monarchy and it is very known that she’s one of the most famous person in the world, so I think even the young people nowadays know her at least a much as I do.

There have been TV Series and movies that was focused on her and her story but this 2021, a musical and a movie was released and I think this is quite a great year to see a story about her. Oh and there are also documentaries about her. You see, she’s just not your ordinary princess, she’s married to Prince Charles of Wales and she’s the mother of Prince William and Prince Harry but I’m sure most of us know how she died and what’s the theories behind it.

Halloween Kills: A Moview

Michael Myers – I bet you all know who Michael is, yes, he’s been the talk of the scare during Halloween season coz he’s been haunting kids since 1978. He’s the killer in the infamous movie series Halloween that set foot in 1978 and then had so many sequels followed through out the years which is crazy because I think this is the only killer in every slasher movie ever known who has been in 11 installment and now just last month, before Halloween strikes again, they released a new movie following up all the movies from 1978. In 2021, Michael Myers has come back in the newest entry entitled, Halloween Kills, sounds about right? I know, sounds exciting especially if you are a fan of the slasher movies like Scream, Saw, Halloween Series, IKWYDLS, Chuckie and so many more.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage

In the midst of the world getting excited about Shang Chi and other new characters on the Marvel world, here I am, geeking about Venom and Spiderman. This October, Marvel has released the second sequel of the 2018 movie Venom. Tom Hardy is still playing Eddie/Venom while Woody Harrelson still plays Cletus Kasady. I know this is a deeper villain story not even focusing on Spiderman at all but I think viewers deserve a story behind the infamous Venom and Carnage.

For those who aren’t familiar of comics, Carnage is the result of the merging of the alien symbiote, Venom, with Cletus Kasady during an encounter in a prison breakout. They call it the offspring of Venom but stronger, smarter and more dangerous. In the new sequel of Venom we all saw how Venom is connected to Eddie in more ways we can imagine.

To be able to live in Eddie’s body, in the first movie, they agreed that he will stay in his body but with certain condition and one of them is not to eat humans and eat chickens instead; the second one is that he can eat human brain only if necessary. I’m not sure how does that contract varies but yes, they live quite while munching on chocolates and chickens however the dismay of Venom was showed in the latest movie. It’s like their bond is starting to crumble.

Gossip Girl: XOXO, She’s Back!

“We’re sisters. You’re my family. What is you is me. There’s nothing you could ever say that would make me let go.”

Blair Waldorf, Gossip Girl 2007

Apparently, there’s a new scoop going around Manhattan after 8 years of being asleep, our beloved Gossip Girl is back! HBO Max just or should I say finally reprise Gossip Girl and it’s all we have been waiting for! Since its premiere in 2007, Gossip Girl is the no. 1 go-to of all high school girls like me. It became our creative standards when it comes to IT Girl TV Shows.

No one can beat Serena and Blair-two high school best friends who are facing the pressure of being an IT Girl around a very pressuring society of Manhattan. We have lived almost the whole high school and college, well, I’d say I did, and survived it because of them. Their mottos became my mantra. I know as a fan you will hear that all through out this article.

I was actually late to hear about this because I was too busy at work but last week I was able to
