FFH THOUGHTS. spoilers below!!!
okay, so for general thoughts, i really loved the movie. i know there are some people saying they thought it was a mess or whatever, but i really enjoyed it. especially the second half. things really ramped the fuck up.
okAY THAT FUCKING MEME OF AN INTRO IRONICALLY MADE ME EMOTIONAL I DON’T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT
i’m not entirely aware of the comics, but i already did know mysterio was a liar, since he’s all about illusions and shit, so i knew that he was a villain from the start so the plot wasn’t much of a twist but hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh anyway
the idea that tony “always second guessed” everything but didn’t second guess peter was a nice sentiment, albeit a bit ... too focused on their relationship, lol.
the fact that they used tony as a reason for mysterio and the rest of his team’s drive was sorta bullshit; it’s like they’re trying to make tony the problem??? lol that sucked
anyway
peter and mj? fuck it was actually super cute and i loved what they did to mj
aunt may’s support of peter? fuck YEAH i loved that shit. god. happy and may? awkward but funny????
there’s like one mention of pepper but no morgan or anything which made me sad
peter having like thousand-yard stares a few times? super significant. i’m glad they didn’t brush aside his trauma
honestly that entire mindfuckery that peter went through with mysterio? holy fuck. i’m just thinking about peter’s extreme sensory overload. that shit was traumatizing itself.
when fury told peter maybe he wasn’t fit to be the next “iron man” .... ouch. i felt that.
peter trusting mysterio was uh. really spot on for my interpretation. i made a HC post a while ago about how easily peter trusts people bc he’s so goodhearted in nature that it makes him gullible as a target. oh peter.
EDITH. oh EDITH. even in death, i’m the hero. tony u fucker. that was a good laugh.
anyway, tony really trusted peter with That much power. he’s a kid. i’m sure he’s probably gonna be so much more wary of using EDITH anytime soon.
ok i just really need threads of peter dealing with his ptsd, thank u. it’s so important to me.
i’m mildly upset that the POC (brad) in the love triangle of peter / mj was made to seem like a bit of a dick in the end. felt lowkey racist but maybe that’s just me as an asian being picky lmAO.
there’s absolutely no mention of like. steve. i did, however, like the homage to cap when peter used a sign and that repulsor sonic blast thing like it was the shield and the hammer or something. that was really fucking badass.
PETER’S MIND THO HE’S SO FUCKING SMART. i mean, yeah, he’s a kid and he makes his mistakes and he’s no where near perfect, but he dead-on managed to create his own suit on a plane on his own while figuring out how he’d be able to fuck up all of mysterio’s illusions!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!! HE’S SO SMART
hated the end of post-animated credit scene with his identity being revealed, though. loved that they brought back JJJ. peter’s identity being a secret is so vital to his character like ... ok, mcu, guess u rly are anti-secret identity
the skrulls .... i can’t believe it ..... nick fury’s mind .......
ok i’ll add more onto this list when i remember more things but !!!!
