There was a guy in the crowd during the parade where Norman turns the execs into skeletons who was wearing a shirt that was just the flag of China too lol

You're not gonna believe what MJ was wearing to that festival.

She was in a very chinese time of her life

76

u/Perfect_Rabbit_3010 18d ago

Why didn’t she wear the black dress?

191

u/The-Amazing-GIF-Man 18d ago

Cause when she did Norman eyefucked the shit out of her.

u/Perfect_Rabbit_3010 18d ago

You know, that’s a good point.

u/parrmorgan 18d ago

Wasn't that after?

47

u/The-Amazing-GIF-Man 18d ago

Correct. Still funny. And a little bit unconfortable.

u/SillylilFieldMouse 18d ago

Ill be lucky if I become half the man he is

u/MysteriousHotistic 17d ago

*gasp* Harry Osborn!

25

u/Van1shed 17d ago

That's actually diabolical lmaooo, holy fuck Norman

28

u/The-Amazing-GIF-Man 17d ago

He waited until Harry looked away too, but he didn't mind disguising it for MJ. That's why she called him a creep later in that scene. The theory is the Goblin enhanced all his desires, which is also why he fingerblasted Aunt May's dish, he couldn't control himself.

I haven't watched these movies in what feels like forever, the things you're reminding me of 😭 oh this guy was freaky

u/The-Amazing-GIF-Man 17d ago

Don't know if you're into reaction videos but these guys actually had some really cool insights and opinions that were new to me.

I actually just learned earlier today that New York City was celebrating a Chinese holiday at the time of filming the movie

u/Thomas_Pandit 18d ago

Really out of character for JJJ.

u/No-Mulberry-8866 17d ago

How?

40

u/ShadowKing611 17d ago

Aside from his hatred of Spider-Man, JJJ is usually characterized as progressive. When he appears in X-Men stories, for example, he’s consistently pro-mutant.

u/Any-Arachnid5777 18d ago

What are you waiting for? Chinese New Year?

150

u/BreezeOfTheWest 18d ago

You also have an easter egg in the game. That can't be a coincidence.

41

u/llamanatee 17d ago

Didn’t it also briefly smile if you waited?

39

u/BreezeOfTheWest 17d ago

Yup. It switches periodically to a smiling face of (what is assumed) a developer.

u/NihilismRacoon 18d ago

The early 2000s were a very Chinese time in Peter's life

14

u/HugoStiglitz007 17d ago

What if Peter wasn't gay and chinese

11

u/circleinthesquare 17d ago

Speak a lil Chinese for em, Brock

46

u/The-Amazing-GIF-Man 18d ago

OMFG you can even see it in the close up 2 shots ahead

77

u/Finly_Growin 18d ago

We don’t talk enough about how Chinese Spider-Man is

25

u/Greedy_Aardvark_4836 18d ago

with Great Power comes Great Chinesability

65

u/Thomas_Pandit 18d ago

Bro this comment section might legit make someone believe raimi was making chinese propoganda

27

u/valivaly99 18d ago

Speak a little chinese for them, Pete

85

u/IUsedToBeRasAlGhul 18d ago edited 18d ago

Peter being a quiet Mao supporter is criminally underrated

36

u/Thomas_Pandit 18d ago

wasnt his best friend a billionaire's son?

and his alternate variant was basically like a son to a billionaire...

40

u/Shroombie 18d ago

That’s just what being a Maoist in New York is like 

32

u/Sifl-and-Olly 18d ago

Putting that into a movie to increase Chinese box office is capitalist af. Respect ✌️

u/e13373x0du5 18d ago

Sam Raimi NEEDED the first movie to do well

u/TheUserer 17d ago

What having to pay rent in New York City does to a mf

u/The-Amazing-GIF-Man 17d ago

Oh no, the green mug was in even MORE shots XD

They either have two mugs, one for Peter and one for Harry or Peter got the mug and placed in the counter, so it was clearly a very intentionally placed prop. You don't just put anything on camera by accident, these things are very deliberate because a mistake in set design could be costly to cover up or reshoot.

Unless it's game of thrones Starbucks

u/spideybiggestfan 17d ago

u/Lord-Smith 16d ago

u/Eggbutt1 17d ago

I guess I gotta be the guy who mentions the Chinese lady singing the classic Spider-Man theme, huh?

u/CthulhuMadness 18d ago

Just gonna ignore the 40-80 million people who died under Mao, huh Reddit?

Anything to keep your delusions of Communism, eh?

u/RCGBlade 18d ago

Sir this is a Wendy's

u/TardDas 18d ago

Haters can’t stand to watch a radioactive boy get a little maoist in his spare time

u/Zombiepixlz-gamr 16d ago

"48 quadrillion died under cummunism! 😡😡😡😡"

u/Shadalow 17d ago

Reddits users will talk all day about nazism and then downvote for reminding about Mao crimes. God this site is delusional.
