That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Spider-Man: So, it wouldn’t have fit tonally, but after the news broke that Peter is Spider-Man and also a murderer, I really wanted a quick cut to Bucky and Sam sitting on a couch drinking beer and watching the news and reacting like, “Yeah, we knew that kid was a dick.”

Okay, AND (when all y'all see Spider-Man, come back here and validate me): I do NOT remember Andrew Garfield being *that* hot when he was in his own Spider-Man movies, but DAMN. The dude can get it.

I saw it this afternoon and for me it's the best MCU movie since The Avengers. It was so good I forgot how creepy I find Tobey Maguire for the full run time. Just aces all the way around.

OMG Spider-Man. I'm on my phone, so hoping I don't fuck up spoilers font:
Matt Murdock! I had been spoiled for the possibility of it happening. I wish I could have gone into it cold but I'm so excited. I love him.
Everything was great. Andrew Garfield is just a fucking delight, and I loved that they're all really emotional and good-hearted.
My audience
yelled for Garfield and yelled louder for Maguire.

I think the only actor who had more fun with his role than Alfred Molina, Willem Dafoe, and Jamie Foxx did with their roles was Andrew Garfield, and good for him, man.
I love that the older Spider-Men have back issues. Hashtag relatable.
I've seen it twice, and if omicron weren't such an issue, I'd go see it again ASAP. But I think I'll be holding off on movies for a while again.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
If I were going to see Spider-Man on Thursday, would I want IMAX or 3D or standard?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Hawkeye
I enjoyed the finale.
I enjoyed the funny bits and the action sequences, although I shouted "No!" when they took the tree down.
Was there any special significance to
the owl?
Edited to add, the answer seems to be
"yes."
Significant to the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree, anyway.

And I got most of the happy ending I wanted.
Although, I kinda wish Yelena had been among the "strays" that Clint brought home for Christmas. I would like to have seen how they played introducing Yelena as "Auntie Nat's sister" to the family.
And so it turns out that Tony was partially right about Laura.
