Psychology of a Hero: SPIDER-MAN (Tom Holland) 

Unpopular opinion here, I know. I dont like that he doesn't tell them the truth. He made a promise and he went back on it. I think it would have been a great example of him acknowledging that you cant take someones choice from them. I dont think thats mature. And i think Ned will become a villian because he betrayed him.

Cant't wait for the Spider-Verse movie, that's my favourite Spider-Man movie! Great video guys, congrats on 1 million subs, you deserve it!

Hey Internet Dads! Can you do Jessica Jones character analysis ???

Out of curiosity, why do you keep accepting better help as a sponsor with all the current controversy about them, especially regarding better help and care dash? Johnathon, how can you accept better help as a sponsor while as a therapist knowing they are stealing other therapists, and possibly your own, information, and using it on care dash to force potential patients to use better help and to not go with that actual therapist? Other therapists are complaining that Care dash has stolen their information, including personal cell phone numbers, having a button to book time with the therapist, but saying they are not taking new patients without ever contacting the therapist and saying they can use better help instead. I love your guys videos, but given all the recent news with better help, i'm surprised you guys are still accepting their sponsorship. I know its possible that you filmed this video before the news broke, but why haven't you addressed the issues?

Day 165 of asking: Do you think you guys could do a video on Steel Magnolias or The Joy Luck Club? They are some heart-wrenched movies that deal with grief and family bonds and womanhood that I absolutely adore.

Perhaps it's powerful *because* it's simple.

This was a big realization for me as a teenager. I had a truly awful principal who had it out for me. (He would later be arrested for embezzling from the school). I know he was a jerk. How could I respect him? I found myself tempted to engage in petty rebellion. But at some point I realized that I could respect someone’s position without respecting their character or choices. My parents worked hard to put me in a better school and get me out of a failing school district. My teachers worked hard to give me a challenging education. My debate coach taught me so much and opened so many doors for me, I don’t think I could ever thank her enough. I could respect that he was a cog in a machine - the best that little school in the middle of nowhere could do at that moment, and by not picking stupid fights, and trusting that my teachers’ complaints to the board would do more than my teenage rebellion made the last two years of high school much easier than the first two.

@@alexh4935 As a leader, I once responded to implicit snobbery from someone here in France who said "One does not speak to the President the way one speaks to the caissière (female checkout attendant)" with *We say "Your Excellency" to the President because they're the President, and "Madame" to the caissière because she's a lady"* I think Jonathan Decker's point about treating people with respect because of who *you* are resonates as strongly with people who know what authority is supposed to look like, as opposed to say, people who get bullied by "petty tyrants" as you did, and show respect nonetheless, perhaps because you had healthy examples of (reasonable) authority figures and "realized that I could respect someone’s position without respecting their character or choice". I'd also like to say thank you for paying tribute to your parents and teachers, because it's a testimony in itself to the values and skills you learned from them, and will encourage others to do likewise. 🙂 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝

Problem is when they demand respect but don’t teach you how to give respect

He gave lots of good advice and thats why he was so nefarious.

Dangerous, too. That sounds so fucking arrogant

He's literally speaking from his own narcissism, thats not good advice its telling

I assumed in that line he might have not meant it and only said it to get peter to like him more. I agree though on half of it, like he doesn't need to apologize for asking questions or wanting to know more like he was doing

@@lissy_love64 I agree. It’s foreshadowing his true motivation, so we can believe this cool nice guy is actually a villain. Beside the fact that he’s freakin mysterio!!

I still struggle watching that scene. It's so raw and heartbreaking

tom holland should win an award just for that scene. not many scenes can make me want to run in and pull rubble off of a movie character...thats actually never happened it was hard to watch at first but it was so rewarding

It brought the sheer weight of that “I’m free” comic panel to life. It was a great homage

same here, he is alone, he is a kid, and he is freaking terrified...so he makes the move, he is brave, and acts like an Adult. This is really a story about a Boy, a Spider-Boy, becoming a Man, a *Spider-man*

for real

Peter is everything Steve and Tony could never be. He can inspire people in ways they never could.

That's so true. He's got the genius of Tony and the kind mentality of steve

@@MMZERO9 could you elaborate on that please?

@@no-2929 Tony is more confident than Peter.

@@twistedyogert No teenager is confident, it's something that's built. It's not surprising total-nerd-geek-teenager-scientist- has an actual secret identity with a lot on the line if anyone finds out- Peter Parker has very little confidence compared to playboy-philanthropist-billionare-adult with no real secret identity Tony Stark

: )

I absolutely loved this quote. I've never thought of it that way before but it'd a revelation

AMEN!

Same here. I try treat everyone with respect, because it's just simply better, and benefits everyone.

With the addition of "Some adults don't deserve respect" - that is a lesson I had to learn and finally I don't let people trample over me because "they're adults and deserve respect". That's so important to know.

Animated Miles Morales - favourite growth arc and favourite mentorship. Andrew - favourite spiderman, favourite romance, Gwen is so strong and smart! Toby - I just ... he was too goofy and all MJ did was scream and it was annoying, however, it had my favourite hero moment with the train so that's something. Also, that upside-down kiss was weird and no one can convince me it was sexy. Tom - Favourite Peter Parker, favourite friendships, favourite villains.

Completely agree

I would say that Tom Holland is the best high school and early college Spider-Man, because he embodies that whole still figuring things out Gen-z teenage energy. While Garfield is the best post-college, constantly on the verge of a panic attack because oh god everything is on fire but you have to pretend like everything's fine because it's what everyone expects of you because you're an "adult" now and you have a limited number of people who can/will help you (if any at all), possibly bisexual (Garfield is, apparently, and a lot of people picked up on this in his performance in NWH) mid-twenties to early thirties Millenial energy. And as a bisexual Millenial with possible (but very, most likely) undiagnosed ADHD who is just trying to live my life, but other people keep SETTING IT ON GODDAMNED FIRE, Garfield Spider-Man just completely resonated in my very SOUL. Even though I'm a woman, I was, personality-wise, pretty much him until I hit my mid-thirties (and honestly still can lapse back into him at times, at least internally).

Andrew Garfield was/is the best Peter Parker AND Spider-Man as far. I know that the Tobey Macguire shills are going to get me b*nned from RU-vid for daring to write this down (and I love Tobey's Spider-Man) but Garfield's take unto the character has a balance of their both personaes.

Tom Holland's Spiderman is by far my favourite.

This is such a great point it honestly upsets me that this one managed to get lost in the cracks.

I think that's actually a bad thing. I believe Peter clearly need an authority figure to restrict him because him rebelling against Dr. Strange ultimately made things worse to the point Peter needed to sacrifice himself in order to fix things. Dr. Strange should've questioned Peter's plan, questioned his motives, asked if he thought it through using legal channels before resorting to magic that overrides people's judgement. Peter Parker is talented and has the potential to be a great hero but he's still young.

This also somewhat fits the the whole "Call me Stephen" bit. And since Peter is still not quite there it "Sounds strange" when he does call him by his name.

@@wesleywallace4426 you've got some great points there and I agree with you but I think part of the reason that Dr Strange didn't question Peter is just because of his own track record. Dr. Strange seems to have a habit of getting himself into situations that have major consequences.

Yet this was ultimately a mistake. It's not something to be glorified, but it is reflective of adult/child dynamics in 2022. Kids teach adults as much as adults teach kids today, which is stupid. It ultimately led to disaster in the film. Good lesson

Agreed!

Yeah I believe I have said that Tobey is about being peter and how that is affected by being spiderman Andrew is about being spiderman and how that is affected by being peter. Tobey had to figure out how to live as peter with the responsibility of being spiderman and even lost his powers and even lost his friend. Andrew had to figure out how to act as a hero and ended up losing Gwen because he was also peter. Even their stories about what happened as they described in no way home where Tobey stopped being spiderman and Andrew just started hitting harder as the hero was a great example of their differences. Tom is a mix but is easier due to his younger age as opposed to Tobey.

Absolutely!

There's no point in being grown up if you don't act childish sometimes. Since it's about the journey and not the destination. We are all going to live the rest of our short lives from beginning to end as naive children in comparison of this wide ancient universe. No matter how much we think we know, there's always something we don't know. ...etcetera...

True but there's a difference between childishness and being a child at heart. I think the CS Lewis quote was referring to maturity, and he's also the one who wrote (I think in the dedication for one of the narnia books) "I hope someday you'll be old enough to start reading fairy tales again."

@@caseyoung1527 the child-friendly sugarcoated versions with the happy ending or the original versions with the grim ending?

@@bittersprout3694 they said fairytales, not grimm brothers stories

@@dione__fernnn fair point, but they're still magical tales that teaches lessons. One through promises of rewards the other through warnings of consequences.

idk sounds pretty depressing to me

Hm.

Yeah, cause it’s an ending full of possibility and hope. Yeah he’s not in the best position ever, but he has the power and the freedom to change that. There’s no one else to tell him how to live or how to be Peter Parker or Spider-Man. He’s finally his own man and he can make decisions for himself, and that means starting from zero.

@@gothicMCRgirl Indeed.

I wept bitter tears of rage at the end of that movie. In my eyes it was such an overwhelmingly depressing ending that it ruined everything that came before it. Interesting that there can be such wildly different takes from it

And the lady that gift him a churro

@@NerveUnderscore churros are pretty good, especially ones made by someones abuela after hearing someone is hungry for one

@@calebb5106 My favorites are sopaipillas tho, churros kinda make me sick xD

I came to the comments partly to see if anyone mentioned that. RDJ is so great at ad lib and Holland (who apparently had forgotten what came next) played along like a champ. They both could have just cracked up and needed another take. Instead they created a great scene.

I highly concur. Tom's Peter seems a little more down to earth than the previous Spidermen. He does his best to look out for everyone, even if it takes an emotional toll on him. Plus, it helps that Tom Holland actually looks young enough to pass as a teenager, being 19 when he was cast.

This comment hits hard and idk why haha

I doubt that most teenagers want to do good. I don't think you notice how rough teen bullying can be.

I think they do an amazing job at depicting the kids just in general. Even Flash was grounded in reality more, and stuff like the morning announcements, morbid jokes, taking almost everything light heartedly, the insecurities, the selfishness and irresponsibility, trying to be an “adult”, etc. I really enjoyed all of them.

AGREED.

wasnt the same situation in the car, where he thinks RDJ is going for a hug?

@@mr.hanfblatt9152 I think that was in the script, but the leg story was unscripted, they talked about it in multiple interviews.

At least with the 2018 video game, I'm not sure how much of the comics it really follows, but there is an aside in I think May's office where Peter says, "My parents were government agents, but no one can ever know."

@@uncreative5766 I hope they never pursue that in the movie. (I know they toyed with it in Andrew Garfields movies) but it just doesn't fit with the vibe.

I always thought that, like in the Spectacular Spiderman series, that Peter’s parents died in some sort of accident, like a plane crash

@@uncreative5766 iirc, in the comics Peter's parents and Uncle Ben were, I think, S.H.I.E.L.D agents.

And as Peter learns how to have to navigate himself

@@Firegen1 Precisely, he's shown sewing his own suit, studying for his GED, and living alone in a dingy apartment, living with the cost of being Spiderman, and having all of his loved ones torn away from him.

@@trinaq The GED thing is the only thing that gets to me. Like come on have some mercy and give him the diploma he rightfully earned at least. But it does fit the character at this point so...

@@kmodo93 oh I KNOW I was like "he had such a bright future, and it was just all torn away THIS SUCKS!" but it's Peter. He'll figure his way around the world.

​@@TheRibottoStudios That is why Toms' Spidey is my favorite. He shows the reality of life. Even adults can relate to him. Despite the character being a teenager, an adult can relate to "sh!t happens and you just have to find another way around to it". Even if you get your diploma and work hard and demonstrate all of your abilities, the reality is everything will always be given to someone else who never worked truly a day in his/her life and everything always given him/her because of nepotism or other bureaucratic BS!

As someone who's getting older, but is still midway between generations, I'm definitely relating to this version of Spider-man. I went through a rough time as a teenager for reasons, and only as an adult now have I had to face things I typically would've faced years ago ^And along that way, I've come to really dislike the mentality of people (especially adults) "not getting X". It's not just a way to understand and connect with others, it seems like basic common sense; if you don't understand something, you go to learn about it - including, ideally, putting yourself in their shoes for a moment - not shut it out and pretend you do know (and/or judge based on your ignorance). Something I think a lot of people forget as they get older, whereas I've always made the effort to try and understand/put myself in the other person's shoes for anything I've not experienced/don't get. If I don't know, what value do I get in pretending? Avoiding looking stupid? That'll happen regardless once people figure out I know nothing. And sticking to what I do know? As safe as that is, safe won't necessarily get you through life; you can't stay in one place forever, physically, mentally, or life-wise, no matter how much we might wish otherwise.

Furthermore, Tom’s Spider-Man came of age to fix the problems made by people of an older generation. That is a pretty unique Spider-Man - that is literally a feeling more for 40 years old and younger. They would never get Spider-Man’a struggle.

@@iantaakalla8180 Yes, because how could someone older than 40 EVER understand the writing and acting behind the MCU Spiderman...we can barely figure out how to work the internet without a dial-up modem. *EYE ROLL*

So, you're going through what every generation as had to go through, as far as older generations thinking you have/have been given everything, you're lazy and don't value anything, take everything for granted, expect the world on a platter...I'm probably forgetting some, but as a Gen Xer I've heard it all before and forgotten it because while it impeded and devalued anything I tried to achieve, I still tried to achieve/and achieved reagardless. Before you continue your ageist rant, remember that not everyone older than you is dumber than you, and that you too will one day be old...and looked as a dumb and the cause of all the problems in the world - so enjoy your superior view on things while you can.

I don’t think the reason some people in older generations hate Spider-man is because he is a teenager. You’re talking like adults didn’t go through puberty and teenage years, we know how difficult and awkward those years can be. The reasons I’ve encountered are that they describe him as “iron boy” and not having some of the difficulties of the Spider-Man in the comics. Like Jono said it took him 3 movies to get where Spider-Man really is, broke, alone, without iron man tech, etc. But I agree that his Spider-Man is underrated, imo he is amazing. I totally love him and can’t wait to see what they do with his Spider-Man.

I dont think thats true…

@@Alex_agamer Andrew himself confirmed that.

Love when people say that tobey was amazing in that scene (not harping cause the scene was great), but his acting was basically just 😐

I agree, but I also feel it took agency away from Holland's Spidey. Stopping him from killing isn't the same as him deciding not to kill... if you follow me.

@@lizardog to be fair, that was his lowest moment, there's nothing wrong with needing help from friends

@@lizardog Tobey's look was "I know how you feel. I nearly killed him too after he tried to kill Mary Jane, my Aunt May and a tram full of kids but he's insane and can't help himself."

@@lizardog Tobey's Spiderman isn't exactly guilt free from that. He killed a guy the first movie, and took pleasure in trying to kill Sandman that May had to tell him that Spiderman never kills people.

I am so unbelievably excited to see where they take his character in the next 2-3 movies. I really hope the next movie is him and Daredevil taking on Kingpin and Tombstone. His arc could be him discovering that new york is riddled with evil, rotten people but when he's spider-man, he gets to be the best he can be and save all the good people and the people that matter to him. Kingpin and Tombstone are such evil, awful people and them both being crime bosses actively seeking to make NYC worse would be so interesting to see Peter go up against them with Daredevil- and maybe he would even be reluctant to trust him given everything he's gone through before, but he'd learn to trust him after Matt saves him despite Matt being in mortal danger. I think Matt Murdock and Peter's friendship in the comics is one of the sweetest things and so fun to read.

On the one hand I love the maturity he shows by prioritising her safety over his own happiness. But. It does really frustrate me that he betrays MJ's trust by going back on his promise to find her and tell her who he was. Trying to keep her safe is admirable, but she was literally begging him in tears to find her and fix things, and he didn't do it. Wanting to protect her is understandable, but when it comes at the expense of her agency and goes against her wishes, I feel conflicted about it.

Ok but like, i don't know, I think he made the promise in order to make her feel better. Like an empty promise that he will someday fulfill but no where soon. Mostly to keep her safe and out of the disaster zone but does suck that he had to break his promise.

@@robbiesmith8055 If the moment is just him remembering she got hurt then I totally agree that he was taking that choice back from her and it's an ironically selfish decision. If he was realising she'd been hiding her pain from him, it makes a lot more sense and is less selfish as he was making a new decision based on new information that she'd hidden from him. She's still getting no say in the matter, so I agree it's not fair, but it was the better choice and it was not possible to ask her again without making it so there was no way to take it back.

@@Brook_55 Except he really did intend to do it up until that moment. He'd written a speech, gone to the cafe and was all set to introduce himself, and then changed his mind. I agree it sucks, but he made an honest promise, started to follow through on it and then found out new information that made him change his mind.

Yeah true

And it’s the same decision that the original Peter Parker made at the end of the first Spider-Man movie when he rejected Mary-Jane Watson for her own safety.

At the same time, Peter makes people’s lives better by existing. Peter’s job unfortunately calls for others around him to shoulder the responsibility that he carries. However, Peter has been responsible for more lives being saved than lost. There is also an argument to be made that Peter doesn’t really have the right to eliminate Ned and MJ’s opportunity to remember him. But that’s a whole other thing. 😅

@@tariqthomas9090 yeah, they did explicitly want to see him again. But while they do want it and he makes the decision for them, against their wishes, it’s also a lot to ask of him as well. All of them would have to go through a lot to make it work, since Peter has to restart his relationships with them all over again.

I'll like it in the story if later on through shenanigans MJ gets all or part of her memory back and has the line. "I told you what I wanted and you ignored me!". She did say she figured it out on her own and she'd do it again.

@@tariqthomas9090 I ran into that arguement in a Star Trek novel. We are, we are who we are, because of what we've been thru and what we've thought about it. Take away any part of our memories and you've taken away part of our selves. Do you (rhetorical) wish to be4 less than you?

Yup! Nailed it

That means a lot. Thank you!

YES. 100 times yes.

peter parker represents morality despite loss. thats my take on it. tom hollands peter did it so phenomenally well

Oh my gawd I made the most embarrassing choking sob noise in the theater because of that moment!! That scene just shattered me.

That scene wrecked me. Andrew (and Zendaya) absolutely nailed that scene. It was so beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time.

My entire theater erupted in cheers when he caught her, and I was bawling 😭😭

@@mark.daniel who tf is Zoe? 😂 But yeah, Spidey 3 catching her to make up for his own failure. Good redemption

@@kantpredict ah! I meant Zendaya, the actress who plays MJ.

He will learn it and frankly it's an issue of society. Individualism encouraging hyper independence and self sacrifice.

Ultra-independence is an indictment of society. We have been told to "look out for number 1," and the cost has been that anything done for altruism is just looked down upon as being a "wuss."

@@uncreative5766 Agreed! Selfishness, callousness, cruelty, rudeness, and the like are seen as cool and so is being an edgelord. It's embarrassing. It's either that or destroy yourself trying to make everyone else happy.

Plus that's not good for his Mental Health either given enough trauma and isolation and the results will not be good.

In the episode about tobey's spiderman they say, by keeping everything a secret and distancing himself from MJ he doesn't respect her and takes away her choice, that really resonated with me. So I hated the end of NWH because again, I feel like he disrespects his best friend and love of his life by taking away their ability to make a decision, whether they want to be involved in his life or not. But apparently here they think it's brave and responsible and adult, so kinda confusing tbh.

Agreed, I love how far Tom has come in the MCU, and I can't wait to see his next major projects.

@@trinaq it's been well executed so far. I truly hope that the Spider-Man films continue to mature as his character does. I do not know how the movie could have paved the way for that possibility better.

Totally agree, initially, I wasn't too fond on the MCU Spider-man when he first appeared. But that changed after No way Home, which reminded me why Spider-man is such a great character. Overall, I felt that Peter's story in the MCU was meant to be a deconstruction of his character, ending with him truly arriving as Spider-Man

Same. I was completely satisfied with Hollands acting, but I just wasn't feeling his Peter Parker/Spider-Man because none of his movies felt like a origin story unlike how it usually is in the first film. When I saw the ending of NWH that's when I knew his story was just getting started and he finally got his origin story.

See that's Spiderman!

Same. I had tears just dripping off my face. I was such a mess. Usually it isn't hard for me to cry and not make a sound but it was practically impossible.

Same was just straight sobbing almost the whole movie. I cry often at movies but that one just hit the hardest and my mom noticed at some point and tried to offer me a tissue. It genuinely was that bad

@@leiamarker2825 my brother kept glancing over and mouthing "are you okay?" He's so used to it now though it mostly amuses him.

@@brighidmcmullen9577 my brother just makes fun of me saying it wasn’t that sad and I’m sitting like “oh yeah the kid who lost his mother figure isn’t sad at all I’m so stupid for crying”. But overall everyone just leaves me be to sob

@@leiamarker2825 I'm sorry your brother is like that but I'm glad you don't take it to heart and let his opinion dictate your actions/emotions. Considering my much younger brother and I have a marvel movie pact (we always see them together or not at all) and I usually pay for the movie (not always and he has paid for me a few times) he knows better than to judge. Also, growing up with 2 sisters, both older, and no brothers, he's used to my more emotional temperament and I also was kinda a 3rd parent and I raised him to be respectful. Lol

I'm gonna make my own comment but I also want to see them dig in to the mindset of The Punisher

Thank you!

That’s so sweet that you’ve been there since the beginning!

Folks forget just how stupidly strong Parker really is. He's always pulling his punches. Always. I forget what comic it was, but I think it was Octavius ends up body swapped with him and damned near kills someone with a backhanded slap then has an "oh shit" moment when he realizes just how thick Peter's kid gloves are.

@@SinHurr yeah. In several comics, his enemies s**t themselves cause he stops talking, stops making jokes, and it FREAKS them out. Cause that means he's finally getting serious.

Doesn't make sense though. Since Tobey more than any of them battled with duel identity especially in Spider-Man 2. Much more so than Andrew and Tom.

After seeing the sequel I must say both movies are incredible. The art, the characters, everything is so alive. I love the energy, I love the color, I love the styles, and I love the story. Spider-Man is an amazing character, just amazing in all four of these different performances.

so. much. *weight*

Welcome to college :)

Objectively speaking yeah, subjectively, NGL NWH is my favorite superhero film of all time. It's my favorite film in the MCU, it's my favorite Spiderman film. He's just the best!

One great shot is Tobey's face when the goblin's maniacal laughter is heard in NWH. Brought me back to the early 2000s for their first encounter. Green Goblin ALWAYS instilled horror in me. Most horrifying supervillain especially with the psychological thriller aspects with the wavering sanity.

Public service meets fanservice done correctly

Welcome aboard! Thanks for watching!

You got this! Thanks for watching! :)

College is a great transition point because you're not fully off training wheels on the bike of adulthood/life yet. You'll still have structure (class times), food (dining halls), and a blooming social life (yay everyone experiencing similar life on campus and in school), but the time management/homework responsibility piece is now more on your shoulders, as is the self care/basic needs, and the advocacy if you have a challenging professor or roommate, etc. You'll have an advisor and an RA you can go to for questions, but you'll have to seek them out versus a school counselor in high school seeking you out. Have the best time, stay organized, and do your best!

I LOVE that movie, it so fabulous. My friend and I (who both have terrible relationships with our dad) sobbed ourselves stupid in the theater. I would LOVE to see the Internet Dads cover it. plus it's a fun, silly, whimsical movie. Great rec, friend!
