Scrolling through your posts and I agree that Endgame was bad but how did it ruin Peter? (On a side note the Tony and Peter reunion is one of the few things I liked about that movie).
Honestly anon? I'm just too tired to stir up my Endgame hate to really get into this. I'm glad to meet a fellow Anti-Endgamer though. The movie in general ruined the MCU (I mean technically Civil War did but Endgame was the nail to the coffin)
How it ruined Peter? It was the start of stripping his optimism. Everything after Endgame for Peter -- FFH and NWH, had a Peter Parker I fail to resonate with. That's not the Peter Parker I knew from the comics or other iterations. Peter Parker gets beaten down, yes. He's broke, he's got shit luck, the world is somehow always out to get him, but he maintains his hope and optimism through it all. Endgame was the start of killing the MCU Peter Parker by just breaking him piece after piece with absolutely no hope for him in sight. By the end of NWH we were given a broken, depressed, abused-by-life boy turned man and it's so fucking bleak I wanna puke. That was never Spider-Man and never Peter Parker. I liked Holland's portrayal in Homecoming and Infinity War but that's it - it's all downhill from there.
The events in general, of Endgame/FFH/NWH aren't the problem. Peter has encountered so much death in his life it gets to be overdone. It's the way the MCU just piled it on him, movie after movie, and failed to let any hope or optimism slip through. It was just "Oh, people relate to Peter Parker because life knocks him down. *proceeds to beat the ever living shit out of him until he's a bloody pulp*....okay now what? beat him up some more, you say? Okay."
FYI - that's not why people like Peter Parker. They like him and look up to him because life *does* beat him up, but he gets back up with a quip and a smile and goes home and readies himself for the next day. He doesn't let it bog him down. When I was watching NWH, I saw a Peter Parker more bogged down than myself -- someone who worked the frontlines of a major hospital during the pandemic.
For all the dark moments, you gotta have some light. We never saw light for Peter Parker after Homecoming. We never saw him truly happy after that movie. He was just...surviving.
And I don't resonate with that Peter Parker, and I don't care for that Peter Parker. If I want bleak depressing ass shit, I'll look around in the real world. I go to fiction for a reason.
I'm gunna stop there cause, again, I'm just too tired to trudge up this hate. This post alone will get at least 3 Kevin Fegie cocksuckers in my inbox calling me a "retarded dumbass who doesn't know better" (that's a quote from someone I had to block after my Dec 2021 Anti-FFH post)
So yeah.
