the circumstances that allow the Spiderverse to thrive are so fascinating- multiverses in the MCU are kind of flopping because there aren't enough *widely* recognized versions of a character to serve as exigence for one, but peter parker has quite possibly the most well-established and rigid yet versatile storylines ever created- his canon was already so fluid, and is exponentially so as we keep telling his story

my mind goes immediately to tom holland's spidey skipping the "origin story," proof it was already so well known that it didn't even need to be told, inadvertently creating an entirely new origin for peter, arguably a new character, one that doesn't know harry or gwen, isn't a photographer, doesn't work for the daily bugle, hasn't classic villains like the symbiote (or truly ANY THAT ARE PRESENT IN NWH, and he probably never will now that he knows they exist) and hasn't had those arcs affect his character. the mcu spiderman films are some of the highest-grossing ever and despite creating an entirely new version of peter i feel he's still thought of as one guy- like, "harry osborn" is still "peter parker's best friend" even if he isn't in some universes. there are millions of other classic spiderman story beats that are left out of very popular interpretations of peter and yet they're still universally true to his character. like, maybe everything is happening to him at the same time, somewhere.

the idea of a canon event just makes this make so much sense and peter's multiplicity makes the idea of other spider-people so easy to accept and even a welcome change from loosely rehashing peter's story. these essential beats being so richly explored and deconstructed is just so genius because it just flips all of that over its head like something something anyone can wear the mask... im just in awe.

this also being due to so many licensing wars, globalization of media, and the comic book movie explosion is like, this couldn't have happened in any other time in human history and along with the revolutionary animation i just can't believe i'm alive to witness it

my favorite theory rn is that hobie killed the cop captain that was a part of his "canon event".

3 fr be the magic number

My face when I read that there were people who still believed the supposed and absurd leaked plot of 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3, the one about *"SPOILERS"?* the little boy that supposed is going to be saved in 𝑴𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝑾𝒆𝒃, who would be 𝗣𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗿 from 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎's universe, and that then 𝗘𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸 would take care of him as his stepfather 😧

I hope that with the photos of the 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3 filming and with what I will say they know that it's 99% false, since the 𝑴𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝑾𝒆𝒃 movie is set in 2003, the boy, by saving him, would be about 17 years old in 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎's movies, well, like 𝗧𝗼𝗺 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱's in 𝑴𝑪𝑼, almost an adult 🙏🏻 (and it comes from 4chan ... )

But, I wish and hope, that plot never comes true at any time in any way... 😅

⠀⠀⠀⠀

Mi cara cuando leía que había gente que aún se creía la supuesta y absurda trama filtrada de 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3, la del *¿"SPOILERS"?* niño pequeño que supuestamente va a ser salvado en 𝑴𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝑾𝒆𝒃 sería 𝗣𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗿 del universo de 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎, y que después 𝗘𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗸 cuidaría de él como su padrastro 😧

Espero que ya con las fotos del rodaje de 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3 y con esto que diré sepan que es 99% falsa, ya que la película de 𝑴𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝑾𝒆𝒃 está ambientada en 2003 y el niño, al salvarlo, tendría unos 17 años en las películas de 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎, pues como el de 𝗧𝗼𝗺 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 en el 𝑼𝑪𝑴, un casi adulto 🙏🏻 (y viene de 4chan ... )

Pero, ojalá y espero, que nunca se haga realidad esa trama en ningún momento de ninguna manera... 😅

no.1

i can live without you now, but i’m not sure if it’s living.

Look, Madame Web is not a GOOD movie, but in addition to being a hilarious train wreck on all accounts, it also provides an a different set-up for Peter Parker’s life that I’m actually interested in: where his uncle’s weird bestie from work and her three adopted daughters help look after him while protecting New York as some kind of localized, all-female Spider Society.

Spider-Man: No Way Home ↳ By Request

Going through an art crisis so here are spideys

Guys I’m so stupid how did I just now make the connection that Paddy Holland is Tom Holland’s brother

But also it’s the way that even though Tom is literally Spider-Man (one of the most iconic characters from one of the most successful franchises ever) I think I would be more starstruck to meet Paddy because like he’s Bobby Vernon from Lockwood and Co. and frankly that’s just much more impressive to me

and i didn’t like the ending.

the loki ending, and 2 other things

(major spoilers below)

we all know that loki finally got his glorious purpose, his throne, his people to command, but at what cost? Not seeing thor or anyone else again, stuck there for all eternity, not seeing bbg mobius, forever holding the branches of time.

Which leads to Tom Hiddleston leaving the mcu. yep. mhm. tom hiddleston is leaving. Also, unrelated to loki, tom holland is leaving the mcu aswell.

so, there we have it. yep.

but iron man 4.

and how is it a cap. america movie without cap in it? oh but wait. CHRIS EVANS RETIRED FROM THE MCU ASWELL.

oh rdj is too, fun.

the mcu is loosing popularity, in which iconic actors are leaving.

I would like to make the post in memorial to all the icons who are leaving the mcu (marvel cinematic universe), for shaping us, for making us laugh, cry, simp (yeah i am looking at you, mhm), and make us feel so god dam happy.

you shall not be forgotten

The damage, the destruction, you saw it with your own eyes. When will people wake up and realize that everywhere Spider-Man goes, chaos and calamity ensue. Everything Spider-Man touches comes to ruin. And we, the innocents, are left to pick up the pieces.

(or, the moment Peter’s broken heart shattered for good.)

[Image ID: five rectangular gifs of Tom Holland as Peter Parker from Spider-Man: No Way Home. Peter is standing in Times Square in the middle of the rain, staring at a large billboard of J. Jonah Jameson reporting the destruction at Happy's apartment:

GIF 1: A closeup side-shot of Peter, his face cut at various places and bruised. His expression is devastated as he stands in the rain, water dripping from his soaked hair and off his nose. His face is awash in red light before it fades out.

GIF 2: A continuation of GIF 1, the camera circling around towards the front.

GIF 3: A continuation of GIFs 1 and 2, Peter tilting his gaze upwards to look at the screen.

GIF 4: A wide shot of Peter standing alone in his Spider-Man suit, clutching his mask, a small silhouette as he stands in front of the wide billboard. J. Jonah Jameson is reporting with a dire expression on his face.

GIF 5: Peter looking upwards, looking lost, alone and devastated as a raindrop drips from his brow down his cheek, mimicking a tear.

I blacked out for 20 minutes yesterday and wrote a fic about Tony Stark coming back into the MCU as a digital ghost AI

The Best Spider-Man Icons

I’m not quite sure how these two meeting up would go but I do know that it’d be something along the lines of Peter 3 being super impressed that Gwen’s in a band. He’d have a similar reaction he had when he thought that Peter 1 was in a band after Peter 1 brought up being an avenger. (So basically proud older brother vibes yk )

(And ofc there’d be some very heartfelt scene where they’d both mourn/talk about how in both their universes they couldn’t save each other-)
