Spider-Man: Brand New Day Review — Better Than the Odyssey?

SPOILER ALERT Is Spider-Man: Brand New Day the best movie of the year? Jason is not joking. Mostly. This week on Thumb War, Jason, Rachel, and special guest Jesh break down Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Tom Holland’s return as Peter Parker, the loneliness after the memory wipe, the Punisher/Spider-Man buddy-comedy energy, Jean Grey’s shocking arrival, Bruce Banner, MJ and Ned, organic webbing, second puberty, mutant power dampeners, and whether Marvel is officially back. Plus: Tom Holland’s wild eyebrow, bodega cleaner placement, Marisa Tomei blame, Black Widow in a Russian bath, Spider-Man’s “no friends” era, Punisher chili, Hulk chaos, MJ’s muscle-memory handshake, Secret Wars theories, Miles Morales speculation, and Jason deciding this movie hit his 13-year-old comic-book brain harder than almost anything else this year.
