For me it hit the full emotional spectrum.

Spoiler Alert!

Especially since previous to seeing the movie, I had just been talking to a couple people about lead singers from bands I like, Alice in Chains and INXS and their struggles and early demise. I really didn't know much about the movie beforehand.

My wife and I watched Goodbye Christopher Robin tonight. We enjoyed it, though it was sad on many levels.

I took my daughters to see Spiderman today. We really enjoyed it.

Yes! I saw it with my son today. It was excellent. I wanted to like Toy Story 4 more than I did, yesterday, though it was fine. Better than most movies, which isn't saying much. If you have to choose one, go with Spider Man. My 2c.

We'll wait for Toy Story 4 to come out on Netflix or regular TV. My daughters aren't big into that franchise, so I'll save the theater money

My wife wasn't interested in going to the theater to see Spiderman but will see it when we get the Blue Ray. She does want to go see The Lion King in the theater, so we'll check that out in a couple weeks. Interesting that Jon Favreau (Happy from Spiderman ) is directing The Lion King. He's actually involved in a lot of behind the scenes work in Hollywood.

To me, Toy Story 3 was such a perfect emotional ending to the franchise that I'm reluctant to go back there.

Meanwhile, I'm burning to see Spider-man, but have to wait until the stars align with child care an spousal availability.

Spiderman is really good Bats. Hopefully you'll get a chance to se it soon.

I think they did find good ground for the Toy Story 4 plot, but it felt rushed, like they didn't take the time to develop it that the other movies got. It's possible the company was looking more for advertisement for the new Toy Story Land than an actual hit, which is disappointing.
Spider-Man was great though! Best end credits scenes in MCU history, IMO.

We just got back from seeing The Lion King. Very good. The story and everything is the same as the animated original, but the cgi for this version was incredible, like watching real animals from National Geographic.

Same here on TS3.

As for Spider-Man, we may see it but we may just wait for Bluray. By the time it comes out the weather outside should be a bit tamer and we can watch it out under the stars on the big screen.

Finally did see Spider-man. It’s a lot of fun.

My son and I just saw Once Upon A Time in Hollywood. I am not a huge fan of Tarantino, but I went because he wanted to go.

It was incredible. A funny and compassionate celebration of a very particular time in the City of Angels. And it was the first thing I’ve ever seen from Tarantino that wasn’t wall-to-wall manic.
