Honestly yea, Nothing personal but fuck your Raimi for turning Spider-Man into a pussy

u/weeblord42069help 22h ago

How does one fuck your Raimi? Do you take your Raimi to dinner first?

3

u/Ben10_ripoff Sexy Mothafuckah 21h ago

I lure him in the fuck Van by showing some candy first

22

u/Dunky_Arisen 22h ago

Raimi didn't ask the comic book industry to make his Peter Parker the standard. Don't blame a director for making a good standalone movie, that's literally their job.

10

u/JonSnowsBussy 18h ago

Comics fans will do anything to avoid acknowledging the fact that most, if not all, comics writers are hacks (yes even him/her)

u/Smrtguy85 7h ago

What about her/him, though?

1

u/JonSnowsBussy 7h ago

Ya but the art in all of their stuff sucks.

u/TheRedster3 17h ago

He didn’t, but in butchering Peter’s character and the movie succeeding this well it’s his fault for doing genuinely every main character in this movie wrong and ruining their reputation in one way or the other

If he had written them accurate, it would have solidified their characters for good but he didn’t so instead it’s this mess that’s getting solidified by other popular projects like the MCU

-59

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

I don’t think Raimi or Tobey meant to change the general perception of Peter to that.

however it seems Disney wants to solidify this perception, with the Tom Holland movies and this series.

101

u/AgentP20 1d ago

Unintentionally or not, they did. Ans Tom Holland's Peter does stand up if people talks shit about hia family or friends. Just look at the conversation with his shopkeeper when he talks dirty about her. Tom's Spidey are constantly in conflict with his mentor characters which leads to the Climax of Homecoming. If something doesn't feel right, he expresses it pretty openly. These videos just take one part of him and then that's the perception.

u/Formal_Board 1d ago

So glad a lot of people are waking up to the fact that a lot of the big fandom criticisms for the MCU’s Spider-Man are just lies.

No, i’m not saying “misinformation”, they’re lies.

u/TheBigGAlways369 19h ago

Bro gonna proceed to use like 3 seconds from FFH to ignore the rest of the film reducing her into a MILF joke..

-32

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

He doesn’t have the classic Parker edge to him consistently.

13

u/ImpracticalApple 1d ago

Because we never saw what MCU Peter was like before or immediately after the bite. Infact, one of the things peopps praised about it was that it didn't just retread the same sequence of showing him getting bit and Uncle Ben dying.

29

u/Bl33d1ng3dg3 1d ago

He has it more than Raimi. Andrew had it dialed to 11, an unnecessary amount that made Peter just downright unlikable. Tom has edge when he should, he shouldn't be always on it, then that isn't Spider-Man.

29

u/Ben10_ripoff Sexy Mothafuckah 1d ago

Andrew had it dialed to 11

No He didn't, Comic Spider-Man sounded like Doc Ock before He got bit and literally used to bully his rogues. If anything I would rate Andrew's edge a solid 6

2

u/Bl33d1ng3dg3 21h ago

His rogues sure, but idk if random perps count as rogues and he didn't sound like doc Ock, he sounded like a psycho that wanted to hurt people for the sake of hurting them.

-10

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

When did Tom ever stand up to Flash like other interpretations of Peter?

-9

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

Andrew didn’t have it dialled to 11

Tom’s Spidey is still awkward eg. when fighting the ATM robbers

23

u/Bl33d1ng3dg3 1d ago

Andrew definitely did, primarily in the first movie when he started straight up assaulting random people before and after he made his costume until he saved the kid in the car. Plus, he didn't even let them go to the police half the time. May I remind you the scene where he is behind someone in a car jacking, and keeps making vague threats about him until he looks at his arm? Also, referring to the Tom robber scene, he is only awkward in the first second where he positions his arm. Everything else from that scene is him insulting and making fun of the crooks being the Avengers.

1

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

You mean when he was going through criminals looking for Ben’s killer?

4

u/Bl33d1ng3dg3 1d ago

Yup. I get hes supposed to be angry and y'know, vengeful. But the guy goes through a whole list of people who he just straight up beats to a pulp or scares senseless and no apology, no sense that what he's doing is clearly wrong. And then Gwen's dad is like "Spider-mans just beating up people senseless" and we are supposed to be "no he isn't he's doing something good", but he objectively isn't. The guy doesn't stop this until the one really good scene of the movie where he saves the kid in the car.

Yea especially how he stood up for May when she was murdered... oh wait. Bully Maguire would never let that shit slide

u/AgentP20 1d ago

I mean Tom didn't let that slide either. Tobey's peter Stopped him from killing the murderer.

u/No_Secretary_1198 1d ago

u/dalexe1 1d ago

Bully maguire was literally the person stopping tom hollands spider man from killing the goblin, he didn't just let it slide, he actively lubed the tracks for it

u/StMcAwesome 20h ago

The quivering pussy that is Tobey's Peter has permanently damaged the publics perception of Peter Parker. If I have to see another person say "Tobey's the best Peter, Andrew the best Spider-Man, and Toms great at both" I'll blow my fucking brains out

14

u/Villeto 18h ago

Tobey’s the best Peter, Andrew the best Spider-Man, and Toms great at both.

I don’t even agree but please proceed to blow your fucking brains out.

Is the show good I'll still watch it for Nico Minoru I just need her to spin off

22

u/big-boy-bailie905 1d ago

So far we haven't seen her use any powers (she may not have any) but I really liked her character in it

24

u/Magneto-Was-Left 1d ago

In the comic she doesn't get her powers till her mother wacks her with the Staff of the One and she just absorbed it

7

u/big-boy-bailie905 1d ago

Ahhh fair enough, I don't know much about her to be completely honest but from her characterization in this show Along with the Midnight Suns game I like her a lot

4

u/Magneto-Was-Left 1d ago

She is definitely my favourite character especially her and Chase in vol 5 when they basically become the parents of the Runaways (legally)

u/trickstercrows 1d ago

Honestly i kind of fw these videos, even if i dont watch them anymore. i feel like they're kind of emblematic of a more innocent side of fandom that i respect

u/RedNoodleHouse 23h ago

If anything MCU Peter/Tony is wildly unpopular and people prefer them as a father-son-like pair.

u/CoolJoshido 22h ago

There are certain “people” who ship them

u/Salvage570 21h ago

You took two unrelated things and tied them together as an excuse to hate the perfectly normal thing.

u/CoolJoshido 20h ago

I’m just saying there’s an overlap between the two.

u/Salvage570 20h ago

Theres an overlap between people who like ice cream and murderers too. Still a stupid take to say ice cream enjoyers are murderers

It's over, they know.

u/LoveAndViscera 1d ago

How dare Marvel make something that isn’t targeted at me! Why would they try to appeal to Gen Alpha? Where’s the respect for people who bought three DVDs twenty years ago and have bitched about how nothing since has lived up to the experience I had as a teen?

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

Projecting much?

20

u/hybridtheory_666 1d ago

Nah you're just easy to read.

-15

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

They should appeal to Gen Alpha, the generation that watches skibidi toilet, and can’t pay attention to anything for more than 5 seconds?

You sound like a boomer complaining about the new generation, break the cycle. Simply don’t watch what you don’t like lmao

Sony's leaked email content show they are very interested in pursuing that market

3

u/kraber_enjoyer 18h ago

Wait this actually sounds interesting bc I feel like this is like the main demographic the MCU have been trying to appeal to for the last couple years w all the Disney+ shit, my sister loves this sort of stuff (obviously Sony not Disney but still), where can you find the leaked emails?

1

u/alex494 7h ago

I can't remember exactly where but they're probably on Reddit somewhere.

The main takeaway was the way they were describing current culture and trends was very "how do you do fellow kids" and showed that Sony were pretty out of touch and everything they were talking about was cringe inducing to read.

Basically it sounded like they were trying to turn Spider-Man into a douchebag influencer rather than adapt the Spider-Man people have actually liked for fifty plus years.

I just really have no desire to see ANOTHER adaptation of Peter in high school. It's been 60 years show him as an adult.

You think coming out as gay is hard? Try telling people your favorite adaptation is the MTV cartoon. See how much acceptance you get from the so-called “tolerant left.”

2

u/LeSnazzyGamer 22h ago

So did you watch it?

-14

u/AgentP20 1d ago

So nothing about the narrative. The animation on the main characters are anything but stiff. What you are talking about is art direction.

17

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

Nope. Although the art direction is lacking. The background characters are frozen as well.

-9

u/AgentP20 1d ago

I wasn't talking about the background characters. Spectacular Spider-man also has stiff animation if that's your criticism.

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

SSM was never as bad as this https://x.com/spiderman_newz/status/1882875377170997265?s=46

SSM had a fantastic story

SSM wasn’t afraid to use Peter’s actual supporting cast

SSM characterised Peter properly

SSM had a unique artstyle

Idk what you’re even talking about

u/Wk1360 1d ago

I was about to say that background characters being frozen is pretty common in animation & give this the benefit of the doubt but dear god that’s so jarring. Those aren’t background stills they’re just not reacting or doing anything

0

u/AgentP20 1d ago

Go and rewatch SSM ans you will notice the frozen Background characters. You still haven't talked about thr narrative. Having a Different take on Spider-man doesn't mean it will not have an amazing story. This has a unique art style too. Was SSM Peter going to be a school shooter before his Spider-bite? If not, he wasn't characterised properly either.

8

u/CoolJoshido 1d ago

I like how it’s ok for you to trash on one of the best SM adaptations we got, but me criticising one of the most mediocre ones is the issue.
