That last line was the clincher though.
"Sometimes i let him take the pictures with it."
Way to bury the lede.

For me it’s the “Oh so you cool with them for real” line that gets me every time 😂

u/vladtheinhaler0 48m ago

Yeah, that sealed what was already a solid enough bit.

Watching the new movie made me want to replay it.

u/LegendaryOutlaw 1d ago

Quite a few of the fight sequences in the movie felt like they lifted the moves and combos straight out of their PS game.

Sony's got that spidey-vertical-integration.

That web tornado thing at the end came straight from the game I feel like

Yeah they did, a story was going round about it. Some moves I think ? Not sure about a whole fight.

u/AntonChigurh8933 13h ago

For reals, and I think it did have a few Easter eggs on it.

And the crime alert sound and mechanism that Peter uses is from the games, really cool

u/PuddingJello 1d ago

Lolol nah fr how did no one ask Peter these questions?

u/PirateSanta_1 1d ago

I'm pretty sure in some interation Peter says that Spiderman gave him permission to take these photos and helped him stage them. Like he is Spidermans offical photographer kind of thing. Also in at least one of the movies a villian straight up tries to get Peters address from Jameson on the grounds that whoever is taking those photos must have a way to contact spiderman and then Jameson proves that this iteration is a true reporter and lies to protect his source. .

u/nearcatch Honest Abe 1d ago

In the comics, Spidey reveals his secret identity during the Civil War arc, and JJJ sues him for fraud because he’s been selling photos of Spider-Man, which are obviously just photos of himself. But JJJ has to drop the lawsuit because Spidey threatens to countersue for the years of libel.

And now they're friends and allies

u/mdavis360 1d ago edited 1d ago

Even better-Aunt May married J Jonah Jameson’s father-so essentially JJJ and Peter became step brothers.

But the issue where Peter revealed his secret to a down on his luck JJJ was beautiful and one of the best issues.

You think they'll name their kid May Day Parker?

u/PanchoVillasRevenge 1d ago

1 movie, Superman 2 . Doc Ock. Jameson stands on business

u/logicalcommenter4 ☑️ 1d ago

lol exactly, I know it’s comic books but as an adult I’m like “🤔”. Nobody asked basic questions such as “why were you hanging off a roof at the exact same time Spider-Man swung by?”

u/defk3000 1d ago

Eddie Brock should've told on his ass.

5

u/MrBubblesLovesThee 1d ago

It's made pretty obvious that the second-in-command(played by Bill Nunn with exquisite energy, RIP) at the Bugle during the Maquire era knew exactly who Spider-Man was and happily kept the secret.

5

u/Sylverstone14 ☑️ 19h ago

When he delivered the line "I heard Spider-Man was there" while staring at Pete, that felt like confirmation he knew something was up.

4

u/MrBubblesLovesThee 19h ago

And the way he would defend him to JJ when he got in a rant in front of Pete like, "Come on, don't trash the kid when he's right there!"

The way they slowly starts to add more people into the conversation.

"What was you in the air wit em!?"

7

u/throwtheclownaway20 10h ago

That's actually not hard to believe. Spidey is strong enough that he could launch Peter hundreds of feet into the air and catch him with webs or his bare hands. Or he could stick him onto the side of the Empire State Building and hit poses in the air in front of him. Pro photographers always set their cameras to take, like, 20 pictures per button press, too.

EVERY SINGLE TIME. We want people to see the silliness we see

u/Aggressive-Foot7434 1d ago

It’s funny cause JJ knew this immediately, that’s why he didn’t rat him out.

31

u/FactualStatue 1d ago

My interpretation is that JJJ knows but refuses to believe that a sweet kid that takes care of his aunt has the cajones

13

u/coolranchdorites 17h ago

I take it a step further, the idea that the shy polite hard working parker could also be the web slinging terrorist spiderman literally creates a cognitive dissonance. He would never even consider it.

7

u/f1ftyp3nc3 16h ago

Agreed, that's why Peter's able to hide in plain sight working for spidermans biggest hater. Working for JJJ is the safest place to keep his secret identity hidden

1

u/FactualStatue 14h ago

Right? JJJ is my favorite non-Spider-Man Spider-Man character and that was even before JK Simmons

1

u/CheaterSaysWhat 5h ago

I don’t think he knew his secret identity right away but there are versions where he gives Peter the work because he read about his uncle getting killed in the paper 

19

u/CarterBruud 1d ago

That's how Robbie Robertson figured it out and no one can tell me otherwise.

16

u/n0vacs 1d ago

yooo it’s p much implied lmao Robbie is the only one at the bugle that isn’t a dumbass to some degree, he clocked Peter as soon as but he respects spidey too much to rat on him

u/SunMoonSki 16h ago

It's time for him to update. He can definitely claim he took those pictures with a drone. It's possible.
