The fact that idiotic comic book films are our blockbusters says everything. I cannot fathom grown men going to see Spider Homecoming over Dunkirk, it baffles my mind entirely.

Oh, fuck off (in the nicest way possible), nostalgia and a strong emotional connection to beloved fictional characters is easily understandable as a motivation to want to see Spidey, especially if wanting to see him on the big screen was a dream we grew up with at least ten years before it actually did first do that; and this is the first time they've actually done a big-screen Spider-Man CORRECTLY. At least it's entertaining, if nothing else. Dunkirk looks boring and depressing. I don't even know if I'd go see it if the let me in for free.

Hey, I am not judging Big Grin . . . at least not harshly because I used to go and see those films. 

I as a whole and skeptical toward American sci-fi and its blockbusters. I enjoyed Dunkirk and it made me very fearful of boats followed by the fast pacing it had which made it very unsettling. The film is just an hour and 30 minutes long which is very unusual for a modern war film. 

Also the film is not advertised correctly at all, it is very unlike its trailers. Spiderman Homecoming I have not seen and I have not seen any of Marvel/Disney's films this or last year. I did fall asleep through Civil War though, it did not hold my attention at all and was painfully bland. 

I understand your love of the childhood you had but I shed all of my existing childhood when I was a teenager under bad circumstances. I had lost all interest in video games by the time I was 19 along with most of anime and TV.
