"Hey buddy, I mean this in the nicest possible way but that IS eugenics and also incredibly dangerous for a multitude of reasons. Please do not bring a device like that into the world."

And Peter being so focused on fixing himself with technology instead of dealing with his emotional problems is like "Great! Now I know how to make the thing!"

also im pretty sure the actor for happy directed it too heh

here you go <3333 i’m sorry if it isn’t what you imagined. i’ve actually never seen a star wars movie in my entire life lol (i know i know don’t castrate me)

soooo I just got out of the movie literally, after watching brand new day AND OMG WHAT A GREAT CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE!!!! I’m so happy with it. I cried, I had fun, I got excited and danced in my chair. Perfect movie, perfect acting, ALL PERFECT.

I could go on and on about Peter’s character and the representation of depression and suicidal thoughts, about he and MJ slow burn, about THE FINAL SCENE, about Sadie as Jean Grey fucking KILLED it. And I will, probably. Later. Now, in this post, I want to talk about Tony.

Or, the lack of Tony in Bnd.

I’ll never forgive Marvel for (a bunch of stuff, to be true) listening to everyone who criticized their relationship and practically only giving CRUMBS of CRUMBS of Tony’s impact in Peter life. Sir. That was his mentor. That was THIS Peter “Uncle Ben”. You can’t just ERASE THAT.

There were two scenes that this really bothered me: the scene with Bruce (also, Bruce 💔🥺): couldn’t they give JUST a comment on Tony? Something like oh you remind of someone or “I had a class with Tony Stark” or “You know my friend hm Ironman had studies about this”. Idk, ANYTHING!

But the scene that ticked me off was Peter remembering everyone that he loved and lost. Seriously? Not a SINGLE mention to Tony or, idk, HAPPY HOGAN? Just a flash of them would’ve done it. But no, because a bunch of people couldn’t appreciate a new vision of Spiderman, let’s practically erase Tony’s impact on Peter. All we got was a single blurry thing of the bag he gave Peter’s suit in.

I’m not even that excited for Doomsday anymore. They won’t do the angst justice.

Anyway BESIDES that, this was just something that bothered me a little, I still loved the movie SO MUCH and now I have four cakes!! The home Trilogy and this. How I love loving Peter’s Tom!

And, you know, I still saw Tony impact on Peter in a veeeeery subliminal way. I don’t care if it’s on purpose, honestly. Just, the frame inside the suit and him doing his own tech things 💔 AND OFC, all the creation of the inibidor and how this parallel with Tony creating Ultron and all starktech and how all this came back to haunt him later. Like father, like son I guess!

So that’s it. I just wanted to see if someone felt off about that too 🙏🏻 REALLY LOVED THE MOVIE. And if you don’t have anything nice to say (idk maybe you hate IRONDAD and just read all the way here to get mad): don’t say it!

In a final note, Jean Grey is my little pookie. And all through the movie I was thinking:

Peter sometimes hides on the ceiling of the lab and tries to scare Tony as he walks in. Sometimes he’ll film it to try and get his reaction.

peter adores tony, but tony builds this emotional wall between them from the get-go, mostly because he’s afraid he’s going to be a bad influence. At the beginning of the mentorship he keeps peter at an arms length, because he knows everything he touches turns to ruin.

I certainly think that, in the earliest stages of their relationship, before peter started to see the more human side of him, he would copy his mannerisms, even simple little things like the way he stands with his hands in his pockets or the way he nods at the receptionist when he walks into one of his fancy business buildings. He thought that maybe, if he was more like tony, tony would like him more.

SCENARIOS:

when they’re in the lab, peter copies little things about tony, the way he sits, the way he stands with his arms crossed, the way he moves seamlessly around the room swiping at holograms and picking up tools in a controlled, chaotic dance. At this point, peter doesn’t know where everything is in the lab yet, but he feels insecure asking, so he just kind of fumbles around until tony helps him.

peter yells at DUM-E to pass him things the way tony does, except DUM-E doesn’t listen to him.

peter starts picking up some of the sayings that tony has, even the less… school appropriate ones.

peter gets kidnapped while he’s out on patrol. it’s the first time this has happened, and quite frankly he’s terrified. when tony is scared he doesn’t show it. so, he tries to act all tough and smart like tony. it only ends up making the kidnappers more angry with him, and they hurt him more.

after this, tony has a heart to heart with peter about all this, sort of an expansion on the classic “I just wanted to be like you / I wanted you to be better” moment from Homecoming, where he explains to him that he likes him just the way he is, and the reason he’s been so distant is because he doesn’t want to rub off on him.

peter explains that the reason he’s doing all that in the first place is he wants tony to be proud of him, and think he’s worth his time.

from there, they start to open up to each other.

cursed him from the moment he touched him

May walks into the kitchen at 7 AM and finds Peter drinking coffee straight black while staring at the toaster like it personally betrayed him.

May: Honey, you’re sixteen.

Peter: and yet the bagel remains untoasted.

May: Why are you talking like that.
