Yeah, wtf kind of beard was Falcon going for, there?

So, why was Ned still in high school when Parker hoes back there? Unless he’s dumb as a post, he (and all of the gang, really) should be in college after the five year break.

Very interesting that Spider-Man actually remembered dusting out.

The whole audience collectively gasped when Cap grabbed the hammer. That was so fucking awesome.

I think the point was they had both been dusted.

I had to google that when I got home. Ned was dusted. But that makes Far From Home a little confusing, unless the entire class was dusted?

Half of humanity was dusted, it just so happens that the characters that are relevant to Peter's story were in that half

THINK it’s mentioned in an earlier film?
But it’s kind of referenced a few times in this. He tells Morgan mom never wears it anyways, meaning the helmet/mask and Tony shouting at cap about how he wanted suits located all over.

*an odd point /thing to say given it was Tony taking the Governments side when they were limiting the avengers ability and trying to regulate them.

That wasn’t explained well at all. If that’s the case, that kinda sucks.

Well on a bigger level you would have had much much bigger disasters at the dusting like half the planes falling out of the sky and millions and millions of car crashes etc etc

Bringing them back raises more problems. They turn up having been brough back, knock on their door to find their wife or husband has a new wife or husband.
And then will and probate and estates would have already been resolved and oh shit you’re alive! All that.
Were pregnant women who were dusted still pregnant when they’re brought back?

Im guessing that might be the tie in to the Loki series.

I admit I was a little disappointed that the CM pager scene wasn’t in it. Nor would it work within it as the movie was presented.

I loved captain marvel. I hadn’t seen the film and watched it last night and thought it was great but especially as it goes in and all the setup. More than most the others.

The deaging CGI on Rene Russo was... not good. Not as bad as Falcons facial hair though.
it was on the nose but i got a charge from the girl power moment
