Damn, I didn't notice the web-shooters until you mentioned them, but I have to agree. I much prefer them hidden under the gloves.
I like the visible webshooters. They make more sense that way. The only reason they weren't that way in the comics was that it was easier to draw, which isn't an issue in live action.
But then, I'm used to external webshooters since I grew up with Nicholas Hammond's single wristband webshooter in the '70s TV show.

They aren't that hard to draw. Other characters have wrist mounted weapons. (Including Black Widow). What they do do is interfere with the flow of the costume.
I didn't say they were hard to draw, I said it was easier not to. There's a difference. It's not like there are only two difficulty settings in life.
If they wanted the shooter on the outside of the costume, Ditko would have put them there. I'm willing to bet the costume came first and the mechanics of the web-shooters later. (In real world development)
Robert Downey Jr posted on Instagram his summer music and reading list.
At the top of it was the trade paperback version of Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars from 1984-85.
I wonder if that means we will see The Beyonder in some way shape or form.

That's my point -- they didn't want to, because it simplified things. You mention Black Widow, but she didn't adopt the costume you mention with the visible wrist devices until 1970. The artwork in 1961 comics was simpler, the printing generally cheaper, so costumes back then were less detailed. Or maybe, as you say, Ditko just didn't want to bother with drawing visible shooters. I don't see why you're picking an argument when we're not really that far apart.
I don't know. He covered the costume with webs. Those are a pain in the ass to draw and look right.
The Widow's first costume ( as opposed to her original street clothes* look) did have visible wrist devices.
* or as "street" as a mink and heels can get.
This reminds me of when Jackson Archer a poster here used to provide daily updates during "The Dark Knight" and "The Dark Knight Rises"
As could shaking hands and taking pics.I guess starring in a movie could be considered "interacting with films"...
It looks highly likely that by the end of 2025 none of the movies they released will be in the Top 10 for the year.
They're currently 9,10 & 11 but Wicked and Avatar are still to come.

Is he giving us homework?
This is already pretty much every movie and TV episode, almost all the dialogue in everything that you watch is ADR. No matter how quite they try to keep things there's just to much background noise for most dialogue from filming to actually be useable, especially when filming on location.Coming soon.! The first ever 100% ADR MCU film!
So does anyone know why Brie Larson was unceremoniously dumped from being the "face of Marvel going forward"?
People didn't like the character. It doesn't help that she is overpowered. She could literally come in and save the day in each movie. Stark's greatest strength at being the face of the MCU is people would love that character, even he never put on another Iron Man suit. Downey Jr gave him so much personality. Evans has that Aw Shucks vibe as well that made people like him. In a MCU way Iron Man was basically Batman and Captain America was Christopher Reeve's Superman.
Captain Marvel has no personality. She is to robotic and lacking a sense of humor. It is fun watching her in action scenes but anything else is just boring.

Yeah no.
There is a small but sadly very loud crowd who keeps repeating what you are repeating. The character is not disliked. And even on this forum alone you'll find many people who like both the character, Brie Larson and both the movies.
Brie is disliked BY SOME because she got tired of all the hatred online and it was beginning to show in some interviews. And those interviews are the sources everybody uses to say she's boring and a robot.
There are so many great interviews and talkshow appearances where she is fun, engaging, joining in banter and jokes.
The big problem here, is you stating your opinions as if they are fact. The only fact is, they are opinions.
As for why she isn't the 'face of marvel going forward'..... We don't know. Marvel has been shaking things up and were trying new things to get in a new crowd. Could be that focus shifted. Could be that Brie herself already said 'one more film and I'm done'. Do we know for how long her contract is/was?
