Far From Home is the most non-believable SM movie

I'm sorry—the whole "they were drones the whole time" is such a lie and lazy writing. You can't tell me that the Earth shaking, cracks forming in the streets, and lava flowing from the cracks can realistically be chalked up to "drones."

Maybe I'm alone in this but I feel they could've written Beck or the Elementals better. I liked the plot of Beck working with Fury and turning out to be a fraud, but I just find the fact the entire world believed the work of drones working together to be real so hard to believe.

The movie is about a kid who is a man spider. the fuck do you mean believable?

MrSpuddies2025-10-12 19:48

I think the point he's trying to make is that the technology seems more magic than sci.Fi..

"uh the drones uh make holograms and stuff but uh they also will make things seem solid because they are uh really good and there are uh lots of them"

joshhirsxh2025-10-12 19:54

"Believable" within the MCU ie. those that are there, actually being fooled by drones projecting a show. Not believable in the literal sense bruh

he knows this, he's just being obtuse. it's a common deflection.

I think you're watching these movies wrong.

He wasn't working with Fury.

joshhirsxh2025-10-12 19:52

Watching it right now—yes he was. Beck created this story to convince Fury, and Fury, Hill, Beck, and SM created a plan to defeat the last Elemental.

ccReptilelord2025-10-12 19:54

That's not Fury, that's Talos.

lokiandbutters2025-10-12 19:50

The explosions and destruction were real, the weather monsters were fake

joshhirsxh2025-10-12 19:53

The actual monsters themselves, yes sure that's believable.

But the earthquakes? Streets literally splitting apart, causing the Ferris wheel to almost collapse? How can drones realistically project that?

aguadiablo2025-10-12 19:58

Because the drones don't and aren't just projecting images.

joshhirsxh2025-10-12 20:00

Ok – so how do drones cause the Earth to literally crack? When clean up crews come back the next day, what happens when they're shocked that the Earth actually did not in fact split?

Thats what I'm saying, it doesn't make sense

GarySoneji2025-10-12 20:11

They were combat drones equipped with weapons.

MrSpuddies2025-10-12 20:38

If that was the case, people would notice shell casings. It would be nearly impossible to hide it after the fact

Recon12122025-10-12 21:37

Tbf I think it would be totally feasible to have drones that expel their casings into a self contained compartment. Considering, it’s probably the least outlandish possibility for what those drones can do.

most non-believable...

Wooden-Radish-90082025-10-12 20:21

Thank you for pointing this out.

Calligrapher_Antique2025-10-12 19:51

Always bugged me that such huge attacks are occurring, yet we never see one cop on the scene. You'd think police would be in a constant state of high alert following the blip.

Recon12122025-10-12 19:51

While it can be a stretch to believe that everything would be believable, the idea was that drones caused the physical incidents as well. That drones would shoot and do whatever necessary to cause actual damage, create heat or whatever else to make it believable. If they were setting off explosions, no bystander is going to question why that earth is shaking when a giant Lava monster is in front of them.

Also, that’s who mysterio is. His entire identity is making you question what’s real, and the only thing that really makes sense to integrate him into the modern day MCU was drones.

One final thing I’ll say, your disbelief is exactly why everyone believed him when he outed Peter. “No way could all of that be drones, that just doesn’t make sense. He must be telling the truth!”

joshhirsxh2025-10-12 19:56

The scene specially with the Inferno Elemental, I'm saying the damage done could not be done with only drones. How can drones cause the Earth to split?

They should've written it where Beck was working with another enhanced individual who was able to complement the drone's projections or something of the sort.

Wooden-Radish-90082025-10-12 20:39

Why do you keep saying they "split the earth"? The environment's ground during that fight is all concrete, which is what we see get broken.

We then see that the drone's guns can destroy concrete during Beck's tech rehearsal.

raytracer782025-10-12 19:53

What sort of 3d projection light / laser output would be bright enough to create a realistic virtual simulation? The drones would also be loud AF.

joshhirsxh2025-10-12 19:58

Exactly. I don't have an issue particularly with the drones, but drones by themselves could not have done what was shown on the screen. They should've added a secondary character or something to fill in the gaps

WranglerOk12112025-10-12 21:41

I ask these questions earnestly...

Do you by chance just accept arc reactor technology at face value? Do you realize the guy or at least his company, that made all the iron man tech, made those drones? Are you equating them with ordinary drones we or the military have available to us today?

I think that when something is far enough from believable (iron man suit, nanotechnology) it's easier to accept. But drone technology has more "bleed" into modern technology, so it's easier to scrutinize as "not possible."

These are not just drones--they're Stark drones, made 5-6 years even after seeing the guy fight Thanos to a near stand-still on Titan.

Also, everyone is talking about the real damage vs. simulated damage when in truth it was probably a mix of both. The illusions are about what you see, but the sonic cannons, actual ordinance, etc. can trigger your other senses--inner ear balance, concussive forces, etc.

So for the street splitting example, it could be a mix of both. You see a crack appear in the ground, and you feel thrown back--that could be a combination of your senses making the illusions believable. That's what makes Beck Mysterio--it's the entire assault on all your senses that cause you to question everything.

I didn't know this would be so controversial. I love it

Repulsive_Season_9082025-10-13 08:08

The most unbelievable thing is kids going on holidays after the snap/blip, when in reality the whole world would be in ruins and people would fight for a piece of bread and the governments and borders wouldn't even exist.
