And I guess it's not "actually scary" (it's an MCU movie, right?), but it was, let's say, thrilling?Hunter Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10925220178171355473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4633480297352890314.post-40850839611342567872019-07-13T04:01:30.632-11:002019-07-13T04:01:30.632-11:00I love that you basically suggested that Mysterio&...I love that you basically suggested that Mysterio's plot be the same as Constantine in Muppets Most Wanted. <br /><br />I feel you on alllll the particulars of this one, and for once our scores almost entirely match. I have a soft spot for Angourie Rice at least since The Nice Guys, so I'm happy she got an expanded role in this one. But you're right that they do almost nothing with her or anybody else. <br /><br />And yeah that Illusion sequence was Doctor Strange levels of trippy. Great work.
