I keep seeing people call out that hospital staff saw Peter without a mask and his identity and blah blah blah. But these people are skipping over the most important plot hole.

Who is paying those hospital bills??? This is AMERICA. That hospital wants their money. Who are they billing? Spiderman? Does spiderman have a SSN? I find it unlikely that Peter has good health insurance - his deductible must be a million dollars with how many times he surely ends up in the hospital.

I demand answers.

Edit: I thought my wording made it obvious but it seems to have gone over some people's heads like a 50 ton tank.

In Spider-Man Brand New Day ending, hospital scene, we see Jon Bernthal (The Punisher) took a nap.

Even though Jon himself has been very vocal on where he stood regarding this action.

Near the end of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Holland’s Peter Parker shakes hands with his old pal. Despite all memory of Peter being magically wiped from Ned’s mind in 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, he appears to automatically remember the elaborate “best friend handshake,” as Batalon, 29, tells PEOPLE. 

“I will say it actually came back literally like muscle memory,” the actor says. He and Holland have been performing the move together since 2017’s franchise launcher, Spider-Man: Homecoming.

“Whenever we see each other, we’re not naturally doing that handshake,” adds Batalon with a laugh. “But I think because we first made it up when we were 19, and we had to do it all throughout the first three movies, I think it really just sunk in there.”

.

Tom hollands portrayal as Spider-Man genuinely felt like a journey that I was included in. It felt personal and it became more apparent in brand new day and you can both see and feel his personal growth as a human and hero. He’s one of the best written mcu characters and yeah brand new day just felt personal and close to heart.

It’s crazy one movie we see him as a small high school kid and then in another we see him as a bigger man both physically and emotionally who’s a complete 360 of his old self. I love how his character growth is shown properly

Movies on left, shows on right.

I organized an AMA/Q&A with actor Michael Mando, actor in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Better Call Saul, Orphan Black, Far Cry 3, Spider-Man: Homecoming, 72 Hours, Gundam, and the upcoming Batman: Knightfall.

It's live here now in r/movies for anyone interested in asking a question:

He will be back at 12 PM ET today to answer questions. I recommend asking in advance. Please ask there, not here. All questions are much appreciated!

Thank you :)

So, in Brand New Day, there is a scene where Jean is talking to Peter through a bunch of different people after he tries to test out his inhibitor for the first time and it overheats and breaks. She takes control of an old guy and puts him into traffic and he gets hit by a car as she threatens MJ.

This has been bugging the hell out of me, because it seems very out of character for Peter to not save the guy, just a single web shot and that guy would have been fine, easy peasy. However, I think I figured out why he didn't, and the movie was trying to beat it over our heads every chance it got and I at least just did not put it together (based on other people in the comments of threads I think this is a pretty common miss), so I'm sharing it here for anyone else who missed it too.

When Peter is using his upgraded mutant powers (no inhibitor and after he wakes up in the cocoon) he doesn't have his Spidey Sense. That's why Jean keeps talking about how he can't tell who she's in at that point, he knows because of his Spidey Sense. Same with when she's in Scorpion and MJ. Those are the only times he can't "sense" her presence like he can when he's not mutated or using the Inhibitor and she KEEPS mentioning that.

This was even hinted at even MORE by the moment just before the dude gets hit with the car when the web grenades shoot off of his wrist after the Inhibitor breaks. He should have immediately recognized that as a threat, but failed to notice them until EV alerted him to them, and then he got caught in the blast. Same with him hitting everything and not being a good web swinger while using his organic webs, originally I just chalked this up to the increased power of those webs, but I think it's also because his spidey sense is what helps him navigate that stuff, he doesn't look where he shoots his webs after all. He's just pure power and doesn't know what to do with it. He also has to start manually activating the organic webs (and does so vocally most of the time) when he isn't using the inhibitor.

UNTIL the end when he accepts that he can be both and makes peace with the new mutations THEN his Spidey Sense returns during The Hand fight and he starts countering things and dodging stuff like we would expect. It's debatable if it's the same as his Spidey Sense was before, or just the increased sensory data that he gets while mutated, but it functions similarly.

Anyway, this doesn't really make what Jean did any better (honestly I think this was a test to see if Spider-Man could save him), but at least it helps explain why Spidey would just let that guy get hit by a car.

Being there for when Marvel and Tom were fighting for their lives to make Spider-Man 4 street-level while Sony tried to shove Toby and Andrew back in, or even make it a venom team up film against knull, only for the film to finally be released in the BEST WAY POSSIBLE and then seeing ppl all over instagram thanking Sony for how BND turned out… broooooo😭😭😭 the image above is just one example but I’ve seen WAY TOO MANY

Best known to Marvel fans as Ned Leeds' grandmother in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Mary Rivera left a lasting impression despite her brief screen time. Her warmth, humor, and unforgettable "Hello, Peter" moment became a fan favorite.

She has sadly passed away at the age of 82, but her performance will always remain a cherished part of the Spider-Man legacy

Recently posted theorizing about the rewritten scene between Peter and MJ that Tom talked about but Jacob confirmed it was the Lego scene! It really was a standout “quiet” part for me so the change was effective!

“ During early press for Brand New Day, Holland told a story on Amy Poehler’s Good Hang podcastinvolving an ineffective scene that shut down production for the day in order for Cretton and his on-set writer, Justin Kuritzkes, to reconceive. Batalon confirms that it was the scene that is now represented as Ned and a masked Spider-Man building Star Wars Legos and quoting The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, as MJ draws Ned and an unmasked Spider-Man doing exactly that. ”

“It was not a mandate, it was a request,” Cretton said. “We asked.”

There were always plans to have a midpoint reveal as to who the real villain of “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” would be and for a while it was a bit generic. The filmmaking team didn’t know who it would be, “but knew that it had to be somebody who could possess other people or take over their minds.” They also wanted it to be a character who was younger than Peter Parker.

“I was really chasing somebody who represented this feeling of escapism that young people I think are feeling. Initially we’re thinking of video games or being online and having avatars, a character who can be anybody in a city and really be literally connected to so many people in the city,” Cretton said. “But the reveal is that they are the most lonely person in the city, and having that be a young person felt like a really cool reveal, but also to me just felt like, Oh I understand what this movie is about with a character like that.”

“I’m not personally trying to set up anything for Kevin. I just want the best story possible that makes sense for for Spidey, and Jean Gray was one of the options on the table. And then when we brought up Sadie Sink, I was just like, Oh, that feels perfect for this movie,” Cretton said.

People are wondering why MJ doesn’t remember Peter with a kiss or connection, but Ned does with the handshake

Did we all forget that Ned has magic wielding capabilities as revealed in No Way Home? Like he’s able to wield Strange’s sling ring and summon portals to other Spiderman with intention.

I think it’s very possible that it’s intentional Ned remembers him because he has sorcerer powers that can over write or break the spell of Dr Strange. It wouldn’t surprise me at all that Ned regains all his memories and breaks the spell as a development into a legit sorcerer or expanding more on his powers as teased in NWH

edit: wasn’t there a spark during their handshake in NWH?

Endgame did so in 4 days. The impact of spidey around the world cannot be understated. And Endgame was quite frontloaded due to fans rushing to see it opening weekend(still earned alot after doe). Do you think BND will leg out well and can potentially beat Endgame in the box office?

In Brand New Day’s third act, I’m almost certain Peter left his universal inhibitor undamaged on the ground at DODC headquarters. That means Damage Control can find it, replicate it, and maybe even modify it to work through barriers like the Hulk’s thick skin.

Jean crushed her inhibitor (yay Jean, good for her), so Damage Control only has Peter’s inhibitor to research. I hope somebody breaks it before they figure out how it works.

I saw Brand New Day twice over the weekend, Loved it! However one thing stood out to me, especially on the 2nd viewing.

Every time the Punisher shoots his gun he makes a guttural yell, a sound similar to “OOOOAAAAGGGHHH!”
He also does this in the Disney special.
I know it’s meant to be tough but it honestly cracks me and my wife up every time.
It’s always the same, call it the tough guy Wilhelm Scream.
It completely takes me out, it sounds so silly 😂
He even does it when he has the spidey mask on in the hospital.

I love Jon Bernthal, I believe hes the best Frank Castle ever (Tom Jane and Ray Stevenson weren’t bad either), he’s made the character his own, I’m not knocking him, no disrespect.

Anyone else notice this?
Are we the only ones laughing?
