Ugh, totally. I hated when she repeats the upside down kiss with him just to be "sure". And she still goes on with the wedding because of fame Me being JJ Jameson will do everything in my reach for that hoe to never get a job in town ever
John Jameson is a stand-up guy. Nowhere near the raging, psychotic lunatic his dad is. Except when he became Jupiter Man. But this one didn't. So he's good.
It's kinda funny cuz originally in the comics, Gwen Stacy was the annoying toxic damsel in distress who was always mad at Peter for not being around her for 5 seconds, while Mary Jane was the cool, laid back girl who always supported Peter and seemed like she always had everything under control.
a lot of the different adaptations end up swapping them around; Gwen originally was the first Parker girlfriend, and MJ came along later. The 90's series not even having Gwen exist is what shifted that part of the lore, and nowadays Gwen is better known for the Spider-Gwen incarnation.
It's weird because Gwen was kinda mid in the original comics, but everything since then with her has been far more interesting and enjoyable. Ultimate Gwen Stacy was a nice change of pace being more rebellious. Spider-Man Blue made her far more likeable and we see how Peter really felt about her. The Amazing Spider-Man movies portray her as being very sweet and less of a nagging mean girls cast member. Then Spider-Gwen came into the world and changed things up again, making her similar to her Ultimate comics self, but more modern. Idk I like her a lot.
TBH, even as a child in the early 2000's, I always felt MJ was trash. WHat she did to the guy at the altar was messed up and I saw that as an 8 year old.
As a child I didn't even know her name. I literally have no idea I watched films I literally ignored all dialogue. I just didn't. I just straight up didn't.
I remember my mother saying MJ is a bad woman and I should avoid woman like that at all cost when I was watching Spiderman as a kid. I got angry at her because I really liked MJ. As I grew up, I realized how right my mother's advice was.
Idk how anyone at any age can even like her at all. I mean it, even physically, she's really not all that hot. And as far as personality that's just trash.
The girl who lived in the apartment with the landlord was the best girl for Peter in the whole Trilogy, she supported him and also was very understanding of him
I know she came from an abusive family but yeah leaving your fiancé at the altar is cold af. Imagine the humiliation and embarrassment he would get considering he’s a well known astronaut. Suddenly her being rejected by her theatre in the third movie is karma catching up to her.
One think more frustrating than MJ's toxicity is Peter's simping. No matter how much she breaks his heart, he's always there waiting for her to start the same toxic cycle again.
Dude I don't blam half of the simps ita Part of male evolutionary psychology to seek female approval and we have a society that Cranks that up so much in a society where women can literally have an entire career of complaining about men my aunt is a gender studies professor lesbian who leers at young college chicks and basically go all men are trash and its a woman's right to mentally abuse them. We have so much that warps our minds and most men are gotten when they are Children and its done by their mothers they don't have a defense to that I didn't either it took a lot to break my brainwashing even when I knew about psychology and anthropology of it.
@@sigmarine Odd nobody's calling you an incel yet when you're here speaking facts, but good on you homie, you're not women's emotional punchbag because they had daddy issues.
Peter fumbled the bag MAD HARD when he skipped his neighbor girl (the one who made him cookies and was very kind to him, obviously had a crush on him) in favor of that toxic redheaded bih
The question is would Mr. Ditkovich have allowed Ursula to date Peter in the first place? I'm pretty sure he's well aware of her crush on him. She's not exactly subtle about it.
she didn't love peter, she loved that peter loved her. i feel like her true self and attitude were really shown in spiderman 3, some of her quotes were crazy. "tell me again, was i really good; the applause wasn't very loud", "tell me you love me, peter".. like it's so obvious how self obsessed she is
I think that’s why they showed her having daddy issues in part 1. She is a person without any love given to her which is why she was obsessed of being loved
@@dipayandasclassxisectiona6578 this is a fictional story, it’s not like she has a choice of what they wrote for her to do, they wanted her to be like that, than that’s what you get 💀
Even as a kid, I never liked the MJ portrayal from the Raimi films. Her cheating/running away from poor John Jameson, her hopping between Peter and Harry and breaking Peter's heart, her kissing Spider Man without knowing who he was 😭😭 she added so much misery and stress to Peter's life. Thank you for pointing this all out, I love your humor and points and cuss-free content that I can watch with my sibs. New sub :))
? Peter rejected her wen they both liked each other, John was a rebound, Peter after losing his powers tried hard to get her back and she accepted her feelings to be with him. Harry knew Peter liked her and in part 2 said "she's waiting for u"
Dude, stop saying women are oversensetive cause look at men in the comments criying cause a character has personality and some deep. Both, mj and peter are real and complex characters and they are cool, if you want perfect goofy ass characters go watch a kids movie god 😅
Gwen Stacy - Just as smart as Peter Parker/Having the same skills as him. Black Cat - Willing to fight crime alongside him/Is *way hotter* Mary Jane Watson - Excellent at getting kidnapped/No combat skills/Career failure (depending on the story) For someone so smart Peter really fumbled that bag.
In the actual comics gwen stacy was a bland boring character and the readers loved mary jane because she had actual personality and stood up for peter. Black cat only loved the spiderman persona and constantly manipulates peter for her own interests. The raimi movies just did a horror job at adapting mary jane and the recent comics have beefed doing everything in their power to assasinate her character
@@giosbizarreart9048 Actually in some versions felicia is an excellent companion for Peter. She learns to appreciate the man as a whole and not just Spidey. Read "The Evil that Men Do"
I have a theory that mj will have a cameo in spider man and then after secret wars when Spider man 5 comes out she will get rebooted to mary jane watson and she will have red hair
You can really see how the film industry makes us believe that this kind of behaviour is romantic. But in reality, it's the worst and makes women and men completely incapable of having a relationship.
Sadly true. There's been a lot of toxic romance portrayed in a lot of art/media and in a lot of entertainment industries. I wouldn't be surprised if some of that is a reflection of how some of our societies has turned a blind eye to toxic relationships for centuries. It relatively wasn't that long ago when there were laws about women not being able to open a bank (which meant they couldn't afford to move out/do almost anything independently) without marrying someone, so I wouldn't be surprised if the pressure for people to hook up and get married too soon and too quickly was cultivated back then, and lead to ending up in toxic relationships... 0_0
Yup trying to sell the “playing hard to get” and “chase after her if you really love her” and “women are so indecisive”. Nah it’s just cruel. Fellas if a gals not interested, she’s not interested. Move on to someone worth your time
Awesome video there... I admit, i never looked at it this way. I'm used to "good women are right, men wrong", so I always thought MJ is caught in the web of Peter's indecisiveness. But I did notice a couple of things that bugged me always : - When peter missed the play, MJ didn't even care about why he missed it. Come on, Peter got run over by a truck on his pathetic motorcycle, he wasn't even spidermanning. He could just as well have been paralyzed in a hospital bed and MJ would have called him saying "don't try anymore, you suck". - The Jameson dude looks like a douchebag... but he never acts as such. He's completely neutral, passive, stuff happens to him because he's just a nice piece of furniture for MJ. I always thought these were scriptwriting mistakes perhaps... but now you've opened my eyes !
As kids we wanted Mary Jane. As adults we all wanted Ursula Dikovich. She was always trying to be there for Peter. In Spider-Man 2 when he was going through his crisis, she gave him cake and milk to cheer him up. In Spider-Man 3 she made him cookies and was even willing to make some with nuts for him. And even though she clearly is crushing on him, she told him MJ called back because she just wanted him to be happy. That's wifey material, MJ belongs to the streets.
You would if it was her early comics. Lately it seems that Marvel has no idea what to do with her and the same goes with Peter. Neither have grown up for the past 17 years since their marriage was retconned and that's because Marvel doesn't want them to stay married, so because Marvel doesn't want Peter to grow up-- MJ as a character is affected by this.
@@anon9060 Im to young for that and plus I live in iran, there are no comics here. I saw the one in sam raimi spiderman, the one from the game and the one from the animated series. consider all the things she did like leaving her fiance at the alter or humiliating peter at every turn and she was clearly pleased with herself when doing them. no man with a shred of masculinity and respect for himself would ever go for a woman like her.
Jonah Jameson cared more about Peter than MJ. He risked his life when Green Goblin demanded the identity of Spider-Man's photographer, and he came up with a clutch excuse not to put Peter in danger. The guy who is known to be self-absorbed was ready to die for an employee he would normally deem expendable.
Her marriage to Peter in the comics was the more interesting part for me. She wasn't in the thickest of the fighting, but she had her own struggles too. They both had to work together through their marriage with the personal stuff they both had going on. Know what else? They were a pretty good team in that regard.
Comic MJ: "Peter, you go deal with the current villain while I *explain* the realities of life to these other MJ's" Comic Peter: "Ladies and Gents, the REAL Mary Jane Watson-Parker!!"
You forgot one of the worst ones: PS4 Mary Jane. While she never cheats or does anything like Raimi MJ, she sure as hell is annoying She says "I may not have spider powers but I'm not made of glass" directly after sneaking into a facility guarded by HIGHLY TRAINED SOLDIERS WITH LASERS. I'm sorry, but in a world where demon mobsters and 8 foot tall Rhinoceros men run rampant through the streets, yeah, you ARE made of glass, MJ
@@kiteman02_64 doesn't stop her from being incredibly annoying. She's just as annoying in the dlc. When she finds out Peter might be a father (mind you Peter wasn't cheating, he and MJ were apart) MJ just says "uck" and hangs up. Like, how fucking rude is that? Sure, she apologizes for it later. But you can only apologize for being a bitch so many times before it no longer means anything
@@kiteman02_64If I remember correctly, she doesn’t outright apologise for this specifically. I think she just generally apologises for being rude or something, or for being mad at Pete, which is just lackluster. I would definitely love to be corrected, because PS4 MJ is one of my least fav.
As a child I just saw MJ as a perfect love interest for Peter. It just made sense that guys struggle to get the girl when I was that age. But watching it as you get older, you really can see all the psycho
“From the streets did she emerge; and to the streets she will return. And I say unto you, ‘She is for the streets.’ So be not weary when she must return from whence she came.” Book of Future, Ch. 1 Verses 1-3
Ursula was the only lady nice to Peter she gave him chocolate cake while he was basically in his existential crisis and cookies with nuts, she actually cared for Peter because she told Peter than MJ was on the phone, she probably had feelings for him but supported his relationship with MJ
wanna know something funny about all this? across all the movies, they make it seem like peter wasn’t capable of getting a girlfriend besides mj. but in the third movie he was juggling Gwen, Betty Brandt, and the landlords daughter like it was nothing. he’s not ugly, he just lacks confidence lol.
@@LWLProductions I think she was supposed to be younger than Peter just by the way she acts and also because she seems to live with her father. But they had very non-teenager looking actors playing teenagers in the first film so I’m not completely sure myself. I just get “high school girl with a crush” vibes from her.
Toxic women need to be called out more. Not erased from scripts, but called out. I have an ex who always sides with the toxic women in movies and she has no reason to acknowledge the red flags because the movie treats them like they're perfect
That's actually insane but like the movie Scream said "don't blame the movies." I think she would have justified her behavior movie or not. Then again I don't know maybe you're right
To be honest I am a girl and in never understood why everyone liked this toxic relationshipp no mather what I can't understand this. Some of my friends I try to advice to let this toxic relationshipp and find one who is really ther for you and wants to supportyou bot no they never listen to me. Three gusses you can make where is always coming crying to me becouse her boy-friend or girl-friend makes her/him emotional trouble?

This is a gem. Both funny and informative. Like, really, boys should stay away from women who treat them like that.
True. And I'm a woman can not tollerate and understand why most man fall for such toxic woman. It's also dosen't excuse that she had a bad childhood and relationship with her father for her behavior.
she's diabolical in these movies man. I even thought that as a kid, I was constantly confused on what her goals or character was. she just spends every scene shes in actively trying to fuck over everyone.

I want to see a story line of Mary Jane and Gwen Stacy are the main villains of a Spider story. With MJ being pure evil and Gwen being a broken hero that redemped herself.
I think she was at her worst in Spiderman 3. She made it all about herself and even resented Peter for being more popular than her. She treats peter as if he's working a 9-5 job doing overtime that doesnt give her enough time but in reality peter is doing a very important duty that she herself knew what it was and what she'd have to tolerate at the end of Spiderman 2. Given, Peter messed up kissing Gwen, but I'd say Bully Maguire gave her a taste of her own well deserved medicine.
She's def not like this in the comics. She's very supportive to peter, and isn't a damsel in distress, until the most recent run in the comics ruined her. If you wanna see a comic accurate version watch spectacular spider man, or just look at gwen in spider man 3, because they literally gave her comic mj's personality
@@abdoucisse894 No, Gwen was a literal antagonist in her early years then became a boring source of terrible drama. Ala Mary Jane in the overhyped raimi movies. They killed her off for a reason and MJ stepped up as the waifu. She was without a doubt welcomed with open arms over Gwen who was quickly forgotten about. Even Black Cat was just a super slutty cat themed version of MJ.
Spiderman 1 and 2: treated peter like garbage ane betrayed him Spiderman 3 when peter got bully maguire, got all the rizz, able to stand up to himself, MJ: surpirsed pikachu face. A truly detestable woman
MJ in the insomniac games definitely tracks with this. Girl goes out of her way to put herself in the most danger and gets mad at Peter when he just wants her to be safe. I appreciate her bravery and willingness to be on the frontlines but I emphasize with Peter’s frustration so much.
For me, it was that she didn’t take a mask, web bombs or a drone, or ask for any type of emergency gadgets for if stealth failed. Being proactive was fine, she was just being stupid about it
I sort of get why she didn't like Peter constantly treating her like she's made out of glass since she's clearly done this so often that shes almost an expert at it, but at the same time, there were so many times where she only got out of because of Peter soooooooo....
@MrKingJson tbh the only reason she survived was luck and thugs being stupid. I mean, the thugs hear some boxes fall or glass breaking and don't immediately call for backup to secure the whole area? That's pure stupidity. And mj was also super lucky that that taser she grabbed somehow managed to work on enemies covered in advanced armor from head to toe.
They both played peter and he ended up getting revenge in return....he beat up harry and brought gwen to the place mj was working at just to flirt infront of mj with another woman...and slapped mj on top of that, oh yeah I forgot he got revenge on Eddie too...damn now that i think about he got revenge on sandman aswell, peter went of a revenge spree in spider-man 3 lol😂
The sad thing is that the Mary-Jane Watson-Parker we had in the comics from 1987 to 2007 was a great and well written character, for the most part, but because Joe Quesada had a massive hate boner for the concept of marriage due to his own one going tits up we saw both the Peter/MJ and Cyclops/Jean marriages well an truly get thrown under the bus.
@@williamedwards4151 for me Quesada was one of the worst EICs Marvel had. Seriously, though the 00s turned out a lot of stuff that was better than what we had in the 90s or what we would go on to have from 2012 onwards, a lot of editorial mandates he made were horrible. Seriously, there were times he made DeFalco's EIC tenure look like Stan Lee's or Jim Shooter's.
@@Ntwadumela89 Pretty much, but the way Quesada portrays it is a tragedy that they had to be separated, when in reality Peter should've been on his grindset.
I was 19 years old in 2002 and even as a literal teenager with no experience in relationships I HATED this version of MJ. I genuinely could _not_ understand why Peter was SO hung up on this awful, unfaithful girl. She was SO wishy washy and untrustworthy. And the fact that she was CONSTANTLY flaunting her relationships in Peter's face was honestly _disgusting._ She WANTED him to give her a reaction. I think she got off on seeing him hurt and miserable and suffering and looking like a crushed puppy. She very obviously could tell that he had a crush on her. I was SO disappointed when in _Spiderman: No Way Home_ Tobey McGuire's Peter confirmed that he was with her. How much drama and stress must she be putting him through _on top_ of his stress of being Spiderman? How many guys has she cheated on him with? How many times has he _forgiven_ her? I just _can'ttttt._ 😭
When watching spiderman 2, I really felt bad for Jameson's son. He seemed like such a nice guy that didn't deserve being left at the altar just because he was being used to get to Peter.
@@vorpalinferno9711 MJ straight up ditched him at the altar. I'd get it if she told him she wanted to break up sooner, but waiting until the last second was a messed up thing to do.
She is AWFUL in the Maximum Carnage arc. She knows Peter has his hands full with the chaos in the streets, yet she constantly nags the hell out of him -- even making it a point to go to the CLUB and flirt with other men, nearly getting killed and having to be saved by Peter anyway.
Yeah, but Maximum Carnage had Shriek using her powers, to brainwash the entire city, bringing out the worst from EVERYONE in New York. You can't blame MJ for not being immune to something that was affecting even the superheroes, to the point it hindered their efforts to stop the villains.
I'd agree, but Amber from the animated Invincible is AWFUL. "I don't care if you literally had your guts punched out, you weren't at the SOUP KITCHEN!"
@@mrmusickhimself "yeah, I'm not an idiot, I figured out you're a superhero risking your life and limbs every day to protect the innocents, and by proxy have enemies that will target everyone close to you, but WE'VE BEEN DATING FOR 2 MONTHS AND I DESERVED TO KNOW!" (Also, idc if I knew it was you that literally saved lives at the college campus, imma spin it like you abandoned me cuz you're an asshole)
As much as I love these movies, the did MJ’s character so dirty. It’s to the point that everyone thinks that this is what MJ is like, which for the most part is just not true in the comics.
Denial someone literally made very much contrast between different characters MJ is not the one she just not she literally started zero purpose so stop dick riding for a minute
@@danielendless honestly, I don't know what is up with the writes/ higher ups, but they are doing everything they can to make MJ seem as unlikable as possible, and unfortunately, it has worked on a good set of the fanbase. And it's a shame because in older stories, she was a great character and her development was beyond most other "love interests"
I also find MJ very unlikable in most of her iterations. I always thought it was annoying how Peter would be quick to point out Black Cat's toxic behavior but put MJ on a pedestal at the same time. (But I definitely have a preference for Felicia myself, so maybe I am doing the same thing) One version of MJ I really loved was from the cartoon Spectacular Spiderman. She is so cool and laid back and hardly even romantic potential for Peter at all being more of a friend to him. It reminds me a lot of how she was when she was first introduced in the comics and I wish more adaptions will go this route with her
The Sam Raimi universe’s Mary Jane is the definition of a selfish human being. In Spider-Man 3, when MJ was talking to Peter in his apartment, she says: “This isn’t about you, this is about me.”
Peter shoulda got with Ditkovich's daughter. She likes him, she's sweet and she can cook. And who knows, maybe Ditkovich may not be so hard on the guy that treats his daughter right.
As a kid I thought the same thing but in the end I realized Peter was influenced by the Symbiote so maybe it was the best not to though she clearly wanted him
Sucks that Raimi dialed MJ’s toxic traits to eleven since she’s only acted like this in the 60’s and dumb recent comics. And the former was presented as a character flaw that she worked on before she got with Peter and became one of the most sweet and relatable couples.
Raimi wrote the villains really well but he *did not* get any of the protagonists. Aunt May sucks, she exists to make Peter feel guilty and that's it. Peter's just a loser and he removed his intelligence because Raimi didn't find being smart relatable. He's not funny, he's just pitiful. MJ is...MJ.
@@Dertzer Do you think May exists to make Peter feel guilty? Do you think Peter is meant to be an average dweeb without any kind of personality whose sole goal is getting with the super toxic childhood friend he has no chemistry with?
@@AJadedLizard Bruh, Rami's Aunt May inspires him and is one of the main sources of light and hope in the world for him whenever he feels defeated. Maguire's Peter is fine the way he is. Yeah sure he may not be highly intelligent compared to Garfield and Holland but his humanity as a struggling young adult trying to balance out life is not wasted or underutilized compared to Garfield and Holland.
Fun fact: Stan Lee himself believed Peter's true love is Gwen Stacy. So all the "ship him with MJ" Marvel does always felt weird in spite of having better girls for him.
@@XZAVIER-DAA-GOD not exactly that, gwen only loved peter yes but that change later as she get to know him and spider (and stop beliving tha spider killed her dad) and become supportive of peter and spider. Same thing with black cat where she just loves pier and later star to discoverr what she missed by dimissing peterand that he is actualy someno she could love. Mary Jane in general have nice felings for the 2 and as she get realy in love she knows that the 2 are the one and same and now marvel writers break her too sadly, because spider never get a break.
One scene is Spider-Man 1 that pisses me off to this day is school fight scene. Flash has bullied Peter almost every day before Pete got powers. The one time Peter fights back and knocks down Flash with a single punch, MJ looks at Peter with disgust and contempt. Like, does she want him to keep being bullied?
Yeah because is the school system really that useless because they should be looking for bully and everyone praises Flash Thompson because he is popular everyone in Peter’s school is a gaslighter because he should have ignored Norman’s request because that only lead to more misery
Interestingly enough, I remember reading the original comics and as far as I remember, Flash never actually physically bullied Peter. He was literally just kind of a dick to him all the time. They did fight each other once, but that was a freaking boxing match. The teacher arranged that shit.
I don't think it was disgust and contempt. More like she was surprised that he fought back and knocked him out. Hell every single person there was surprised. I mean that's how I see it.
@@bluehotsaiyan only one guy (who is flash's friend anyway) called him a freak. If you watch that scene you'll see everyone else cheered out as "yeah" when peter punched flash.
@@Dhanya19113 Young women as a whole show themselves to be promiscuous and flippant when it comes to relationships. Not my fault they do the unflattering behavior, I just call it out
Yeah you’re 100% correct. I never liked MJ in the movies, or comics. There is always some unnecessary drama with her. Another example is the insomniac games. MJ broke up with Peter because she got tired of his “overprotective attitude”. OK can you blame him? He experienced a terrible loss and she does get pretty reckless in a lot of situations. What’s even worse is that she kind of flirts with him even after they broke up. For crying out loud, MJ make up your mind! They should’ve been a chill couple in the first game and then get married in Spiderman 2. No ridiculous drama.
I don't know if this is the case in English but in the French version of MJ in the Spider-Man game on PS4 (or the Isomniac games) she talks about the breakup ALL THE TIME, like it speaks quietly then suddenly she adds a "Do you remember our breakup?"
@@misterok5978 In the English, she doesn’t mention it every 5 seconds but still her reasons for breaking up with Peter in the game felt selfish. She jabs at Peter about the breakup 4 times in the story. I just think that Peter & MJ should have been a couple from start to finish in the 1st game and then they get married at the end of Spiderman 2. Sorry for the rant lol 😂. Its just that the drama between these two is getting really old.
@@misterok5978 Oh that’s a fact. I mean she’s a “supermodel” in comics if I recall correctly(Not exactly a proper job for a wife). They went in the right direction with her being a journalist(more interesting story wise) in the games but they kept her irritating attitude. Lol 😂
My issue with the Raimi films is that too much of the story is centered around Peter's toxic relationship with her when there's more fun/interesting/potentially interesting supporting characters I'd rather see Peter interact with.
YES especially with aunt may who's is completely forget about latter in the third film, also they try to act like Pete and Harry where good friends or even "best friends"? When they were just awful to each other..even from the very start, like why WOULD you date the girl your homie loves in graduation? That's pretty fucked up, harry.
@@sorachi8788 Yeah they weren't great friends to each other but I will defend Harry on making a move on MJ. Peter barely made a move on her for close to a year, so Peter isn't that much entitled or call dibs on her. What Harry should have done tho is inform Peter that he has a thing for MJ as a good friend should do. Plus lets not judge their friendship too much, we have at one point fucked over our best friend once or twice in our lifetime. Which is why the topic of forgiveness is raised in Spiderman 3. If you have never had a disagreement or argument with your friend before. It means you arent real friends, you are probably "yes-men" to each other. If you can forgive your friend after a heated disagreement or argument it makes your friendship stronger.
One alternate timeline had him hooking up with Chat. A woman who basically had Snow White's power to sway animals into doing her bidding. Like Squirrel Girl, but less quirky, and not limited to squirrels. The movies need to do her justice. MJ is toast.
In the books and the comics MJ WAS originally very supportive of Peter and very aware of her limitations. When Morlun's brothers and sister come looking for Spider-Man she doesn't panic when it looks like they're discovered. She had prepared emergency kits for the both of them since she knew this came with the territory. And she was the one that actually finished off Morticia before she could kill Peter. It is mostly in recent years, surprise surprise, that she's been turned into what she is now. That whole Paul thing, a blatant self insert if there ever was one, was for the me the final straw since SM for me was to Marvel what Batman is for DC.
I read the comics first and I liked MJ, so the toxic argument about MJ confused me...she had more brains AND was super understanding and supportive...and I saw the series and the movie and wut!!?
That original comic panel of “Face it tiger, you hit the jackpot” was when i grew infatuated with MJ. That MJ was the best MJ and even as a kid I couldn’t stand the raimi version.
Damn bro that's hard, I've never had a girlfriend but I think if I ever did I would tell her something if she ever acted like that. But I can understand why you didn't.
@@IobsterpetersonI don't think that word means what you think it means. Ignoring a character's shit behaviour because they're hot and you want the main character to fuck the only option the movie will actually give them is the opposite of nuance.
As a woman myself , I can see how Mary is so selfish and manipulative...but didn't understand why boys used to like her in my class 🤣🤣🤣 ...I used to be very shocked that boys could not realised it
I'll never understand why Peter didn't lock down his landlord's daughter. She was always so sweet and kind. Even watching these films as a kid I always shipped him and the landlord's daughter over MJ or even Gwen 😭. Edit: and even by the end his landlord ended being a respectful guy and gave him amazing advice on why people needed heroes! So honestly that's the perfect woman and father in law for Peter Parker!
In MJ’s defense, when she said to Peter, “Don’t tell Harry!”, she was referring to her job, not the fact that she would go on a lunch date with Peter despite her dating Harry.
@@tdspkhype3042 why read the comics? the problem is the version of the character represented on the big screen. different versions of characters from what probably are different writters behind. also you are the one talking about Gwen. Point stands MJ from the movies is a horrible person
Technically she's not the real Mary Jane. She is Larry Jane. The Mary Jane Watson that I Know would never do such thing to Peter. In fact she even become his wife during the early times when comic books were readable. It's just that the makers of the movie didn't give faithful adaptation of the character . The current comic book writers do not utilize Mary Jane Watson like it's predecessors on early comics.
I always wondered why he seemed so stiff; zero movement on the shoulder that should be adjusting itself on the web. The wind is also coming from the wrong side. Damn. I haven't seen this movie in years, but I don't think I'll ever be able to watch it again.
I always hate that trope of how someone knowingly dates a bully, and then viewers are expected to feel sorry for her when the abuse is turned on her Screw that noise. Heck I disliked Sam from Cobra Kai the first 2 seasons, but credit where credit is due, her bully boyfriend began hurting her AFTER she dumped him because she witnessed him beating up 3 defenseless teens, and was like 'hell no'
Yeh I think cobra Kai is more realistic in the sense it’s scary to break up with a violent person in case they turn on you, whereas the rest of media doesn’t usually depict why why they would stay
What makes this especially toxic is the smiles and pleasantries. She ain't obvious with it. This can always be downplayed with: oh she's just fickle, love is complicated, she had a hard upbringing so dont judge. Get the fuck outta here with all that. Thank you for making this my man its highly analytical and insightful. Props
The extra f-cked up thing is that Raimi's MJ is not the only character that's written to be a toxic love interest (and unfortunately, there's a long history of a lot of characters written to normalize toxic relationships.) Now that I think about it, there's a lot of art/media that would show simping as a "positive" trait for a long, long time... 0_0
Its not Mary Jane's fault.its marvel editorial is keeping them apart and they are protraying her like that.stan lees version is completely different person infact his version ends with her and peter getting married and having mayday.
Yes, actually Marvel has been doing that for years, not just with Joe Quesada, but Gerry Conway did kill Gwen also bc her relationship with Peter was growing really fast and if she did catch on then they'd have gotten married instead of Peter and MJ. Most of the editorial wants Peter to be relatable, but they believe him being married to MJ doesn't make him relatable. Thus, they wrote MJ like a bitch, especially the ones who hate her being with Peter. Zeb Wells hasn't tried much with PeterxBlackCat, but he did break him and MJ up on purpose for unwanted drama.
In the original comics, MJ literally flirts with Peter in front of Harry, whom she is dating and even gets mad at HIM when he calls her out on it, to the point where he almost OD’s on drugs. After he gets home from the hospital, she continues flirting with Peter in front of them in their own house!! How this trash human being became such a staple is perplexing.
Thank you for pointing all of this out. Bc watching this younger, I learned all the wrong lessons. When I got my own MJ, a gorgeous girl of my dreams, I learned all about what toxic was, first hand
The way she left Jameson's son at the altar is a villain origin story in the making
Facts
Ugh, totally. I hated when she repeats the upside down kiss with him just to be "sure". And she still goes on with the wedding because of fame
Me being JJ Jameson will do everything in my reach for that hoe to never get a job in town ever
Would have been perfect for introducing ManWolf to the movies. In the comics he gets a magic stone that turns him into a werewolf.
Which would explain well why the Carnage Symbiote bonded with her so well in Ultimate Spider-man.....
Doesn't Jameson's son get powers in the animation and fights against Spider-Man
F for Jonah's son he was just a man in love he didn't deserve to get treated like that.
He got a W for dodging that bullet
John Jameson is a stand-up guy. Nowhere near the raging, psychotic lunatic his dad is. Except when he became Jupiter Man. But this one didn't. So he's good.
@jonnyunitusgaming Nah, he got hit, it just didn't hit anything fatal. He'll live but shit still hurt
@@marche800 he looked like he wanted to cry in the scene even if he gets past it the trauma is still there,
I feet so bad for John Jameson
It's kinda funny cuz originally in the comics, Gwen Stacy was the annoying toxic damsel in distress who was always mad at Peter for not being around her for 5 seconds, while Mary Jane was the cool, laid back girl who always supported Peter and seemed like she always had everything under control.
a lot of the different adaptations end up swapping them around; Gwen originally was the first Parker girlfriend, and MJ came along later. The 90's series not even having Gwen exist is what shifted that part of the lore, and nowadays Gwen is better known for the Spider-Gwen incarnation.
@@UltLuigi1and The Amazing Spider-Man films.
It's weird because Gwen was kinda mid in the original comics, but everything since then with her has been far more interesting and enjoyable. Ultimate Gwen Stacy was a nice change of pace being more rebellious. Spider-Man Blue made her far more likeable and we see how Peter really felt about her. The Amazing Spider-Man movies portray her as being very sweet and less of a nagging mean girls cast member. Then Spider-Gwen came into the world and changed things up again, making her similar to her Ultimate comics self, but more modern. Idk I like her a lot.
I remember some one like Gwen they were nice she had issues that her friend helped her with so she needs them
Back then maybe, now MJ's toxic as hell too in the comics.. Allegedly, I don't read Spiderman cause I heard the writers keep torturing him lol
She saying that's our kiss when she had had no idea that Spider-Man was Peter Parker back then is a major red flag by itself.
She was with Harry when she kissed him in that alley so she cheated on Harry.
Childhood: Romantic story of the hero
Adulthood: Actually pretty messed up
G shit
Bro since childhood I always knew MJ was shit ☠️
TBH, even as a child in the early 2000's, I always felt MJ was trash. WHat she did to the guy at the altar was messed up and I saw that as an 8 year old.
Even as a child theme Spider-Man 2 in theaters I knew it was messed up what she did to John.
As a child I didn't even know her name.
I literally have no idea I watched films I literally ignored all dialogue. I just didn't. I just straight up didn't.
I remember my mother saying MJ is a bad woman and I should avoid woman like that at all cost when I was watching Spiderman as a kid. I got angry at her because I really liked MJ. As I grew up, I realized how right my mother's advice was.
Mom knows best
Idk how anyone at any age can even like her at all.
I mean it, even physically, she's really not all that hot.
And as far as personality that's just trash.
My mom did not give me this lesson. At least not this specific. And I am ended up dating someone exactly like this.
Your moms a smart woman. I respect that

I know she came from an abusive family but yeah leaving your fiancé at the altar is cold af. Imagine the humiliation and embarrassment he would get considering he’s a well known astronaut. Suddenly her being rejected by her theatre in the third movie is karma catching up to her.

@@starchild2299yes when you leave your fiancé at the altar it’s his fault because he doesn’t feel the right emotion
One think more frustrating than MJ's toxicity is Peter's simping. No matter how much she breaks his heart, he's always there waiting for her to start the same toxic cycle again.
Yeah like this makes me think that love is a rat race because there is Harry always getting their way and that he wants her to be his wife

Exactly.
Gwen Stacy - Just as smart as Peter Parker/Having the same skills as him.
Black Cat - Willing to fight crime alongside him/Is *way hotter*
Mary Jane Watson - Excellent at getting kidnapped/No combat skills/Career failure (depending on the story)
For someone so smart Peter really fumbled that bag.
Peter is a bro he knows Miles
In the actual comics gwen stacy was a bland boring character and the readers loved mary jane because she had actual personality and stood up for peter. Black cat only loved the spiderman persona and constantly manipulates peter for her own interests. The raimi movies just did a horror job at adapting mary jane and the recent comics have beefed doing everything in their power to assasinate her character
@@giosbizarreart9048Wow, someone who knows.
Black cat doesn't share Peter's morals at all so she is probably a bad pick
@@giosbizarreart9048 Actually in some versions felicia is an excellent companion for Peter. She learns to appreciate the man as a whole and not just Spidey. Read "The Evil that Men Do"
Fun fact: MJ in the MCU is not called Mary Jane her actual name in the MCU is Michelle Jones
She’s basically a different character that took her initials. Not just because of her name, but she looks different and acts drastically different.
I have a theory that mj will have a cameo in spider man and then after secret wars when Spider man 5 comes out she will get rebooted to mary jane watson and she will have red hair
I learned something thank you I guess not all RUclips comments can be toxic.
@@Groggle7141I disagree ironically she acts more like MJ than the raimi one does 😂
She's far better than this MJ
You can really see how the film industry makes us believe that this kind of behaviour is romantic. But in reality, it's the worst and makes women and men completely incapable of having a relationship.
Sadly true. There's been a lot of toxic romance portrayed in a lot of art/media and in a lot of entertainment industries. I wouldn't be surprised if some of that is a reflection of how some of our societies has turned a blind eye to toxic relationships for centuries. It relatively wasn't that long ago when there were laws about women not being able to open a bank (which meant they couldn't afford to move out/do almost anything independently) without marrying someone, so I wouldn't be surprised if the pressure for people to hook up and get married too soon and too quickly was cultivated back then, and lead to ending up in toxic relationships... 0_0

Yup trying to sell the “playing hard to get” and “chase after her if you really love her” and “women are so indecisive”. Nah it’s just cruel. Fellas if a gals not interested, she’s not interested. Move on to someone worth your time
@@Scarshadow666That was way older than these movies
Awesome video there... I admit, i never looked at it this way. I'm used to "good women are right, men wrong", so I always thought MJ is caught in the web of Peter's indecisiveness. But I did notice a couple of things that bugged me always :
- When peter missed the play, MJ didn't even care about why he missed it. Come on, Peter got run over by a truck on his pathetic motorcycle, he wasn't even spidermanning. He could just as well have been paralyzed in a hospital bed and MJ would have called him saying "don't try anymore, you suck".
- The Jameson dude looks like a douchebag... but he never acts as such. He's completely neutral, passive, stuff happens to him because he's just a nice piece of furniture for MJ.
I always thought these were scriptwriting mistakes perhaps... but now you've opened my eyes !

In Spider-Man 3 she made him cookies and was even willing to make some with nuts for him.

Mj is the type of woman who wouldn't date someone unless he's rich or a superhero.
I have always said, you would never go for a woman like her if you have a shred of respect for yourself.
You would if it was her early comics. Lately it seems that Marvel has no idea what to do with her and the same goes with Peter. Neither have grown up for the past 17 years since their marriage was retconned and that's because Marvel doesn't want them to stay married, so because Marvel doesn't want Peter to grow up-- MJ as a character is affected by this.

@@ashkanhooshmand6518 I mean Peter cheated on her too, yet you never really seem to mention that
Jonah Jameson cared more about Peter than MJ. He risked his life when Green Goblin demanded the identity of Spider-Man's photographer, and he came up with a clutch excuse not to put Peter in danger. The guy who is known to be self-absorbed was ready to die for an employee he would normally deem expendable.
He probably just wanted money from Peter
@@Angelawinterschild井 Perhaps. But Goblin was ready to strike him down just as Spidey showed up. Jameson knew what he was up against.
Seriously he may say people who try to stop crime are menaces but damn he is litteraly a chad who cares for the employees
Her marriage to Peter in the comics was the more interesting part for me.
She wasn't in the thickest of the fighting, but she had her own struggles too.
They both had to work together through their marriage with the personal stuff they both had going on. Know what else? They were a pretty good team in that regard.

Ursula was the only lady nice to Peter she gave him chocolate cake while he was basically in his existential crisis and cookies with nuts, she actually cared for Peter because she told Peter than MJ was on the phone, she probably had feelings for him but supported his relationship with MJ
wanna know something funny about all this? across all the movies, they make it seem like peter wasn’t capable of getting a girlfriend besides mj. but in the third movie he was juggling Gwen, Betty Brandt, and the landlords daughter like it was nothing. he’s not ugly, he just lacks confidence lol.
The venom symbiote made him confident
Bully Maguire had that flow
The landlord’s daughter was a teenager right? I think she just had a crush on him which Peter knew and (wrongly) indulged in the third movie.
in the comics i heard Peter is a Rizz lord. not a Rizz God like Batman, but peter is up there.
@@LWLProductions I think she was supposed to be younger than Peter just by the way she acts and also because she seems to live with her father.

Toxic women need to be called out more. Not erased from scripts, but called out. I have an ex who always sides with the toxic women in movies and she has no reason to acknowledge the red flags because the movie treats them like they're perfect

i can just feel how she responded and saying reasons defending them

I think she was at her worst in Spiderman 3. She made it all about herself and even resented Peter for being more popular than her. She treats peter as if he's working a 9-5 job doing overtime that doesnt give her enough time but in reality peter is doing a very important duty that she herself knew what it was and what she'd have to tolerate at the end of Spiderman 2. Given, Peter messed up kissing Gwen, but I'd say Bully Maguire gave her a taste of her own well deserved medicine.

I understand she was reasonably mad about the kiss, but from Peter's perspective it was just a publicity stunt that didn't mean anything.
She's def not like this in the comics. She's very supportive to peter, and isn't a damsel in distress, until the most recent run in the comics ruined her.

They killed her off for a reason and MJ stepped up as the waifu.
She was without a doubt welcomed with open arms over Gwen who was quickly forgotten about.
Even Black Cat was just a super slutty cat themed version of MJ.
But then had kids with a guy named Paul
Gwen became better thanks to the Amazing Spider-Man movies. She was given a personality by Emma.

MJ in the insomniac games definitely tracks with this. Girl goes out of her way to put herself in the most danger and gets mad at Peter when he just wants her to be safe. I appreciate her bravery and willingness to be on the frontlines but I emphasize with Peter’s frustration so much.
For me, it was that she didn’t take a mask, web bombs or a drone, or ask for any type of emergency gadgets for if stealth failed. Being proactive was fine, she was just being stupid about it
True. I would say she has a zeal without knowledge
I sort of get why she didn't like Peter constantly treating her like she's made out of glass since she's clearly done this so often that shes almost an expert at it, but at the same time, there were so many times where she only got out of because of Peter soooooooo....
@MrKingJson tbh the only reason she survived was luck and thugs being stupid. I mean, the thugs hear some boxes fall or glass breaking and don't immediately call for backup to secure the whole area?

I was 19 years old in 2002 and even as a literal teenager with no experience in relationships I HATED this version of MJ. I genuinely could _not_ understand why Peter was SO hung up on this awful, unfaithful girl. She was SO wishy washy and untrustworthy. And the fact that she was CONSTANTLY flaunting her relationships in Peter's face was honestly _disgusting._ She WANTED him to give her a reaction. I think she got off on seeing him hurt and miserable and suffering and looking like a crushed puppy. She very obviously could tell that he had a crush on her.
I was SO disappointed when in _Spiderman: No Way Home_ Tobey McGuire's Peter confirmed that he was with her. How much drama and stress must she be putting him through _on top_ of his stress of being Spiderman? How many guys has she cheated on him with? How many times has he _forgiven_ her?

MJ is a perfect example of just because your highschool crush is pretty doesn't mean you should chase her.

One version of MJ I really loved was from the cartoon Spectacular Spiderman. She is so cool and laid back and hardly even romantic potential for Peter at all being more of a friend to him. It reminds me a lot of how she was when she was first introduced in the comics and I wish more adaptions will go this route with her
My thoughts exactly
She is too plain for me personally
Felicia has always been fine.
Mary Jane from TNAS I guess was good as well
Agree with you
Finally Someone talked about it!!!
The Sam Raimi universe’s Mary Jane is the definition of a selfish human being. In Spider-Man 3, when MJ was talking to Peter in his apartment, she says: “This isn’t about you, this is about me.”
When she said that I felt no remorse when he slapped her

Sucks that Raimi dialed MJ’s toxic traits to eleven since she’s only acted like this in the 60’s and dumb recent comics. And the former was presented as a character flaw that she worked on before she got with Peter and became one of the most sweet and relatable couples.
Raimi wrote the villains really well but he *did not* get any of the protagonists.
Aunt May sucks, she exists to make Peter feel guilty and that's it.
Peter's just a loser and he removed his intelligence because Raimi didn't find being smart relatable. He's not funny, he's just pitiful.

One scene is Spider-Man 1 that pisses me off to this day is school fight scene. Flash has bullied Peter almost every day before Pete got powers. The one time Peter fights back and knocks down Flash with a single punch, MJ looks at Peter with disgust and contempt. Like, does she want him to keep being bullied?
Yeah because is the school system really that useless because they should be looking for bully and everyone praises Flash Thompson because he is popular everyone in Peter’s school is a gaslighter because he should have ignored Norman’s request because that only lead to more misery
Interestingly enough, I remember reading the original comics and as far as I remember, Flash never actually physically bullied Peter. He was literally just kind of a dick to him all the time. They did fight each other once, but that was a freaking boxing match. The teacher arranged that shit.
I don't think it was disgust and contempt. More like she was surprised that he fought back and knocked him out. Hell every single person there was surprised. I mean that's how I see it.

Yeah you’re 100% correct. I never liked MJ in the movies, or comics. There is always some unnecessary drama with her. Another example is the insomniac games. MJ broke up with Peter because she got tired of his “overprotective attitude”. OK can you blame him? He experienced a terrible loss and she does get pretty reckless in a lot of situations. What’s even worse is that she kind of flirts with him even after they broke up. For crying out loud, MJ make up your mind! They should’ve been a chill couple in the first game and then get married in Spiderman 2. No ridiculous drama.
Thisss
I don't know if this is the case in English but in the French version of MJ in the Spider-Man game on PS4 (or the Isomniac games) she talks about the breakup ALL THE TIME, like it speaks quietly then suddenly she adds a "Do you remember our breakup?"
@@misterok5978 In the English, she doesn’t mention it every 5 seconds but still her reasons for breaking up with Peter in the game felt selfish.

@@sorachi8788 Yeah they weren't great friends to each other but I will defend Harry on making a move on MJ.
Peter barely made a move on her for close to a year, so Peter isn't that much entitled or call dibs on her. What Harry should have done tho is inform Peter that he has a thing for MJ as a good friend should do.
Plus lets not judge their friendship too much, we have at one point fucked over our best friend once or twice in our lifetime. Which is why the topic of forgiveness is raised in Spiderman 3. If you have never had a disagreement or argument with your friend before. It means you arent real friends, you are probably "yes-men" to each other.
If you can forgive your friend after a heated disagreement or argument it makes your friendship stronger.
It's not a raimi thing , it's Spider-Man getting cucked every time like man can NEVER catch a break
One alternate timeline had him hooking up with Chat. A woman who basically had Snow White's power to sway animals into doing her bidding. Like Squirrel Girl, but less quirky, and not limited to squirrels. The movies need to do her justice. MJ is toast.

Shes not the most toxic woman, but the most dangerous villain spider-man has ever faced

In the books and the comics MJ WAS originally very supportive of Peter and very aware of her limitations. When Morlun's brothers and sister come looking for Spider-Man she doesn't panic when it looks like they're discovered. She had prepared emergency kits for the both of them since she knew this came with the territory. And she was the one that actually finished off Morticia before she could kill Peter.
It is mostly in recent years, surprise surprise, that she's been turned into what she is now. That whole Paul thing, a blatant self insert if there ever was one, was for the me the final straw since SM for me was to Marvel what Batman is for DC.

Yes, actually Marvel has been doing that for years, not just with Joe Quesada, but Gerry Conway did kill Gwen also bc her relationship with Peter was growing really fast and if she did catch on then they'd have gotten married instead of Peter and MJ. Most of the editorial wants Peter to be relatable, but they believe him being married to MJ doesn't make him relatable. Thus, they wrote MJ like a bitch, especially the ones who hate her being with Peter. Zeb Wells hasn't tried much with PeterxBlackCat, but he did break him and MJ up on purpose for unwanted drama.
