    Toby was and always was dogshit lmao i love tom holland. Im in the exact same age bracket you mentioned too so idk if its an age thing.

    with that said, i do think MCU is over rated and the barrier to entry is way to high! I can say that as I watched a good 3/4 of them and my roomates are marvel psychos who think it’s absolutely godly (i had mild wandavision crit and they hounded tf outa me)

      i also have a soft spot for tom holland's spiderman because the actor/character seems super charming!

      I think what makes me love toby's spidey is the campiness : the horrible 2000s fashion, MJ's horribly dyed and untoned cherry red hair complete with the lil side bangs + the green limited too robe dress , the laughable showcase of the post 911 brain worms where every time toby spiderman lands on a building theres a stupid relatively horribly CGI-d american flag rippling behind him, peter parker randomly becoming an emo incel in the 3rd movie, ICONIC IMO

        dont forget doc oc check notes literally breaking into a cartoonishly large bank vault and carrying large hatch bags with dollar signs in them. LMAO how tf is doc oc gunma goto the uranium dispenser ( or whatever material they do fusion with in this world idr with a sac of cash?? or the metal materials to make his reactor??? what was the end goal of the sentient tentacles like it seemed like they knew it was a suicide mission to keep doing it? they seemed to literally talk to him as an Ai. so many questions lmao

        while i like them in the way I like The room or something equally cheesy its not like good hahah
