The symbiote keeps kosher, doesn’t it.
I always read symbiote spider man in this movie as Parker with the confidence to act how he thought would be cool. And he thought it would be cool to answer the phone in an unexpected way.
That’s exactly what it was. He wasn’t supposed to be cool, he was doing what he thought was cool. I don’t understand how people watch the part of him walking down the street finger gunning everyone and miss that.
It’s like his inner id running loose
Ya know, given recent events, certain people have made me aware that I often say shalom, call my baby daughter “bubby” and use other words like “schlep” and “schvitzing,” as though Yiddish was evil. They are, of course, assholes.
Natural, I’ll continue to use those words because I was raised on Mel Brooks movies, especially Men in Tights, which is a goddamn classic.
Yiddish and Hebrew are far older than and used by those who don’t support current events. It’s like the German language getting demonized in the US (and probably elsewhere) around the world wars; the language didn’t do anything, but people make assumptions of the speakers of those languages.
Many Yiddish words like “schlep” are so mainstream that it doesn’t even register with me.
“You’ve got a little schmutz on you” just feels like the right way to tell people there’s an unspecified substance on them.
saying “shalom” or “namastey” or “hola” as a non-native speaker was an irritating “hip” thing to do when that movie came out, and that’s a scene where Peter Parker is trying repeatedly to be “hip” and failing spectacularly.
wait is it genuinely irritating to sprinkle in greetings/thanks/you’re-welcomes in other languages cuz i do that a lot cuz i like learning new words 🥺
Unfortunately you are not allowed to speak in tongues outside of those you were born into.
Also nice username.
