Unless it's a big black buck. Hopefully they will give Jean a proper bull love interest instead of this wimpy whiteboi

i don't think Jean was positioned to be a love interest, probably a close friend. but it's funny how even that somehow felt more genuine and intimate than 3 movies that attempted to sell Zendaya as a love interest

This. There was no love interest vibes there at all. He's basically acting as a mentor. But touch starved retards don't get platonic relationships.
>>
>>223472995
i think it's more about Holland Spidey's romances being so unconvincing and lame, that seeing a genuine and strong connection with a female character even if it's just friendship feels very refreshing and makes the prior romances look even lamer
>>
>>223472726
She isn't even Z's competition, Tom basically does not see her as a romantic interest, his eyes are literally on Z and he loves Z so much

This movie was infuriating.

The first three MCU Spiderman films took Tom Holland, who has the makings of a genuinely solid Spiderman, and saddled him with some of the worst supporting characters in superhero history. Love interests and sidekicks who ranged between annoying and actively repellent, who kept barging into the plot like uninvited relatives taking over the kitchen. MJ was the worst part, she's a walking eye-roll with the charisma of a parking meter. Zero romantic chemistry with Peter despite the actors being married IRL, which is baffling.

Then comes the miracle: this movie dumps MJ and Ned into the background for most of its runtime. Holland's Spiderman finally gets to carry a film without being dragged down by everyone around him, and what do you know he's actually good. It's like watching Sisyphus finally set the boulder down and move around freely.

It gets even better. Sadie Sink as Jean Grey joins him, and it's like seeing a man who's spent his whole life driving a rusty Fiat Uno get a chance to drive a Porsche 911. Her dynamic with Peter is sharp and well written, and she and Holland need only about sixty seconds to generate a synergy the last three movies couldn't fake between Peter and MJ in over six hours of trying. Next to that, suddenly every Zendaya scene looks like a hostage video (with Peter blinking HELP in Morse code).

And then the movie does it. It lets you hope, it lets you enjoy yourself for a moment. It promises a genuinely interesting future for the saga. But then it snatches it all away. Jean is abruptly shoved out of the story with zero closure, and Peter shuffles right back to pining over MJ and Ned again. The movie gives a glimpse of what MCU Spiderman could have been all along and what it could be, then looks you dead in the eye and chooses to delete it and go back to what made the previous movies suck. On purpose. Infuriating.

>>223472676
Zendaya doesn't want Tom Holland kissing any other actress that isn't her, which is why Spider Man will never have another love interest
She seems like that type, but she can fuck all her male co stars though
>>
>>223473221
the only scene i thought was actually well acted between Holland and Zendaya is when she doesn't recognize him and tells him she doesn't love him

Seeing Zendaya for the first time in Spiderman: Homecoming was the shock of my life.

I was so hyped for a new fresh take on Spiderman that I cagily avoided all marketing materials, all trailers, and all commercials. If I walked by a toy aisle at the store and caught a small glimpse of a Spiderman plushie, I'd look away immediately. I wanted to go into the new saga with an entirely open mind, as pure as an Amish virgin. On opening night I knew Michael Keaton played the antagonist (that much was hard to avoid, even though I shielded my eyes), but little else. I didn't even know which characters from the MCU might show up.

When the name of Zendaya's character was revealed to be Mary Jane, I let out an audible gasp. My entire row of filmgoers looked at me like I was nuts, but I couldn't help myself. There before me was the most Simian creature I'd ever seen in New York city. A boyish gorilla girl with huge flaring nigger nostrils and big Nigerian chieftain eyebrows. And apparently she was MJ.

Oftentimes film studios will soften the blow by casting Zoe Saldana or Halle Berry... but not this time. This time you were forced to feast your eyes on the brownest most boyish looking ironing board of a woman, blown up forty feet high on an IMAX screen.

I looked around, uncomprehendingly, as the rest of the crowd seemed to accept this monstrosity as MJ. Then it occurred to me that I was the only person who hadn't already seen months' worth of marketing materials.

Little by little, they had been led to accept this by drips and drabs of commercials, trailers, and TV interviews. Their minds had been so softened that they were willing to stare unflinchingly, calmly, as Zendaya made her signature ZendayaFaces™.

Lots of people debate about the exact moment when Spiderman died. I contend it was when that eternally frowning deadpan charisma black hole Zendaya with her Lovecraftian face was revealed as Mary Jane to the audience.

A crucial part of demoralization is the offering of hope then its subsequent destruction. Rather than simply inflicting suffering, one can promise the victim improvement or a better future, only to cruelly take it away. The psychological impact of this tactic is far more potent.

>>223474954
I'm pretty sure Marvel has interns tasked with interpreting social media reactions to their movies, it has steered some of the creative decision making before. There's a more-than-zero chance they saw the overwhelmingly positive response to Peter/Jean and might do something about it. Time will tell. But the chances are low.

i think you're missing the point
im not worried about you writing a long post
im worried that you have that level of deep insight into the plots and themes and characters and actors in a children's film
its the sort of thing you're supposed to take your kids to for some mindless weekend entertainment
an adult man is not supposed to get "infuriated" over spider man's choice of romantic partners
>>
>>223475623
>im worried that you have that level of deep insight into the plots and themes and characters and actors in a children's film
I have that kind of insight with most movies I watch. It's not something I switch off and on. And thinking children's films or childish films can't have plots or themes or character work is naive.
>>
>>223475642
you're really gonna keep going with this, huh?
you don't pick up the intimate details of the personal relationships of the actors in a children's move just by casually watching it
this is information you had to go out of your way to learn and retain
getting upset because spider man choose the "wrong" love interest is pathetic behavior

Mutt MJ is genuinely awful even taking the racism aside. Zoomers say she's the best mj because they're comparing it to the whore MJ from the raimi movies which isn't a high fucking bar. REMINDER the 2nd Spiderman movie just starts with Peter already fallen for MuttJ and we're supposed to just be invested in their relationship eventhough she's just the quirky ugly girl. She's the sidekick's gf tier, not for the main fucking hero ffs

Lol appreciate the extra effort in altering some of the insults originally meant for boyega
>>
>>223475902
it's a weird thing to get so defensive over
we can break it down for you i guess

>>223473221
you start by discussing your opinion of the main actor in three of these films, comparing him i guess to other spider man actors meaning that you already have a mental catalog of however many of these films they've made over the years, which actors played which characters, and who did the best job of playing the spider man
you're upset over the casting choices and writing, you know about the personal lives of the various actors down to who they're married to
you get embarrassingly verbose while discussing more details of romance (let's remember again that this is a superhero movie for kids)
you get upset that your favorite cartoon character isn't being allowed to date the correct fictional girl

after making it very clear that you are extremely emotionally invested in these films, you then declare that they all suck and you're "infuriated" that they didn't let "spider man" date "Jean".
what you're doing here is on the level of lecturing on your opinion of the quality of the voice actors for my little pony
it's simple entertainment for children; if you want to devote this sort of energy to analyzing film then at least do it where there is something of substance to analyze rather than wasting it on mindless children's entertainment
>>
>>223476135
I never even said it was romantic, it's not. It's not about dating. It's about the movie showing how much better off Spiderman is when it gets rid of the deadweight from the previous films, but then bafflingly choosing to go right back to it. You are retarded, it's embarrassing how much effort and spite you're putting into tearing down a strawman, and I'm not replying to you again.
>>
>>223476179
>I never even said it was romantic, it's not. It's not about dating.
you literally start off by whining that there is "zero romantic chemistry"
but clearly you're too far gone to understand that you're wasting your life expending this effort on children's media
the unfortunate reality is that there are far too many adult men like you who are deeply emotionally invested in the fictional lives of cartoon characters
