It will be interesting to see how Aunt May is handled in the upcoming Spider-Man: Far From Home, now that she knows that her nephew is the wall-crawler. Will she want to keep Peter out of the suit and the danger that comes with it, or will her rumored relationship with Happy Hogan help to ease her worries about his super-heroics? Hmmm... are we ready for an Aunt May that acts more like Alfred Pennyworth?
This May P. is based on the Ultimates' Earth's May P., so she's a lot tougher and right behind Peter when he's on the front line. Her thinking abilities are much more progressive, as her "Into the Spidyverse" version would suggest. On one Earth, we might see May in charge of SHIELD & Fury like Bond and M.
ReplyDeletePeter dealing with a BLACK CAT-CATWOMAN amalgam would be fun.
Hmmm, How's this seem? Tigra, Catwoman, Black Cat & Cheeta vs >Them< (??) "Not the catfight you were expecting BUT it's the one They got!"
ReplyDeleteLike Peter Parker wants a share of the loot? :P
ReplyDeleteWhy not? The Aunt May who dated Jarvis the Butler, in the mainstream comic, didn't do such a bad job domestically maintaining the penthouse in Avengers Tower. Even if she was a Skrull!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm! Could Aunt May's old flame, from before she married Ben Parker, have rubbed off on her more than any of us initially thought?
ReplyDelete@det_Tobor: I think they'd be perfect charter members for a group called...
"The Feline Force!"
Hey! That was my idea (circa March 2)!
ReplyDeleteIn the trailers for Spider-Man: Far From Home, May is shown giving a costumed but unmasked Peter a high-five after a successful charity event, and surprise-packing his Stark Tech Spidey-Suit for his trip. So, yeah, the MCU May Parker is fully supportive of Peter's superheroics.
ReplyDeleteYou must've seen that on line. No movie I've been to, in the theaters, has been showing any trailers, yet.
ReplyDeleteYep. here is the first one, from January. (I'm having trouble finding the other two or three I've seen, at least in standalone format, though you can find them plus analyses at the Emergency Awesome channel.)
ReplyDeleteIf Anti-Mexican opinions encopurage a return of that racist(?) game Border Patrol, maybe the game could be hacked on a smartphone to replace shooting Mexicans with catching them in Pokeballs in the same way as Pokemon Go. :)
ReplyDelete@my namesake: which raises an interesting question. How come the ASPCA has never encouraged a boycott of Pokemon as it seemingly promotes animal fighting for profit? Maybe not monetary profit! But, profit just the same.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Pokemon: I went to see MISSING LINK, today. And I saw the first official trailers for DETECTIVE PIKACHU. With Ryan "Greenpool" (or is that "Dead Lantern") Reynolds doing the title voice-over.
ReplyDeletePretty good CGI!
Maybe the ASPCA didn't encourage a boycott of Pokemon, but PETA did!
ReplyDeletePETA would picket a peck of pickled peppers!
ReplyDeleteIf ever they do more than that, we should sick Bad Kitty and Pantha on them.
