The secret handshake worked to trigger Ned’s memory of Peter, so I can’t help but wonder if a kiss would trigger MJ’s if she could actually experience it for herself. It wasn’t actually MJ who kissed him, so there was no memory to be triggered.
“I don’t love you” okay time for me to go cry on the couch for hours
Bros saying Peter had more chemistry with Jean (explicitly stated to be a teenager, while Peter is a young man in his 20s) than MJ (played by his actual real-life wife) is giving… racism.
MJ and Peter will definitely take a long while to rebuild their relationship, but Ned and Peter will fall back into their old habits immediately. And that’s even if Ned’s memories haven’t been restored. Peter will explain everything to him, and they’ll pick right up where they left off like no time has passed at all.
It’s wild to me that the original critical reviews of Brother Bear called it “unoriginal” and “predictable” when I can’t think of a single other movie (let alone an animated Disney movie) where it’s revealed at the climax of the film that the protagonist murdered the cute kid sidekick’s mother
I think the reason Viren’s redemption works is that he ultimately got nothing out of it. The popular idea of a villain redemption is a bad guy changing their ways and eventually being accepted by their former enemies, often becoming one of the heroes themselves. But that wasn’t the case with Viren. Soren didn’t forgive him. Ezran didn’t forgive him. He wasn’t welcomed with open arms. He was locked in the dungeon, presumedly for life. And when he atoned for his past through a heroic final act, no one except Soren even knew about it. And that still didn’t earn him forgiveness.
But that’s how we know that Viren truly changed. For seeking the right path, he received nothing but rejection and death. And he was okay with that. He understood these were the natural consequences of his actions. He accepted what he had done was wrong. His sacrifice was sincere, a servant dying for his kingdom, a father dying for his son. He wasn’t seeking forgiveness, or glory, or power.
Because he had changed.
