What was the point of this character? Being a bitch?
Does anyone even like her?
>>
>>93941559
To hype her up for the sequel and replace Mary-Jane as Spidey's love interest.

Which so far seems to be flopping spectacularly seeing how fans are going on how she's the worst part of the movie.
>>
>>93941588
I thought the worst part of the side characters roster was Flash, or was it a tie between the two?
>>
Brown MJ was cute
>>
>>93941559
considering this is the 100th thread about her, she seems popular enough.
>>
no. she's fucking boring and I'm only too glad that she barely got any lines.

Yes, she's a bitch, purely for the sake of being a bitch. "Ooh, I have no friends because I'm so edgy and outspoken"

I hope Green Goblin throws her off a fucking bridge
>>
>>93941588
Dubs of truth. Its clear that she had more of a presence in an earlier cut and they pussied out last minute, but left the MJ thing just to gauge what they should do with her character. Comic fans, Raimi fans, and the general audience just want red headed Mary Jane apparently. Shes not offensive, just pointless
>>
I liked her

>she seems popular enough.

I think 'popularity' implies a degree of positivity or being liked. Michelle has been mostly negatively received.
>>
>>93941559
Just like white Mary. They're all cunts and sluts you will mary.
>>
>>93941638
The only way her character to be redeemed is making her the daughter/granddaughter of J Jonah Jameson, Michelle Jones Jameson.
>>
>>93941559
she reminded me of girls I knew in high school so i think it worked out the way they wanted it to
>>
>>93941559
She's actually quite realistic, most if not all high school girls are cunts
>>
>>93941616
Flash was just boring. Michelle was actively annoying.
>>
>>93941559
So is anyone screen capping these posts who don't like her. I can already see after the next Spider-Man movie, every one is going to be calling her the representation of MJ and going
>muh waifu
On a full scale
>>
>>93941661
Where? We know /co/ hates her but what of outside?
>>
>>93941661
If you leave out the /tv/ and /pol/ threads its been nothing but positive.
>>
>>93941559
To appeal to the "alternative hip" crowd
Basically inverse of the chipotle nutella avocado eating valley girls and hope to score brownie points for that
>>
>>93941616
Flash at least served a purpose. He wasnt the Flash we wanted or knew from the source material, but he was at least a bully (and a faggot) that tempted Peter to abuse his gifts. Michelle just shows up randomly, adding nothing, and is just pointless setup for a OC character no one wanted
>>
>>93941559
With white people dying off and becoming a minority they needed to appeal to the future of the free world. I'm just looking forward to an end to wars and racism but the change in movies is nice too.
>>
>>93941724
Is this a /tv/ and /pol/ thread?
Anyway, there's literally nothing redeeming about this character. Every line is a bitchy out-of-nowhere bitter comment. She doesn't appreciate anything. She never says anything positive.
The only people I imagine that like this character are just like her: fedora-lords

Usually I agree with guys on here but I'm starting to feel it is legit just because she's black

her point was to trigger retards like you who get annoyed by characters who are in the movie for a total of 7 minutes and barely did anything important to the plot yet you're caught up on it because her name is MJ even though its Michelle Jay instead of Mary Jane so its technically not the same MJ so your reason for getting triggered is pointless aside from nitpicking and /pol/ memes.

OP never mentioned anything about her being MJ

It doesn't look like we'll get the 'Flash is a fan of Spidy and eventually learns to be a better person after having a role model' dynamic that I've been craving for all these years.

I don't understand how anyone can summon up the energy to dislike her - she wasn't in the movie long enough to dislike. She didn't do anything remotely important and had next to no dialogue - she was just there, making up the numbers of Peter's classmates.

If it hadn't been for the "My friends call me MJ" line - which came out of nowhere, and seemed to serve no purpose other than to make it obvious (as if it wasn't already) that she was a future love interest - I don't think anyone would've given the character a second thought.
>>
>>93941842
True, and the sad part is studios look at those reactions when making decisions.
>>93941854
I thought the Indian line was forced. You know what every normal person would have said? "Whatever, nobody fucking cares". I dont even think Native Americans care
>>
>>93941788
I thought some of her scenes were funny and it's not like she had much of a presence in the film so she didn't really annoy me.

He wasn't black. He was Greek. Though that still doesnt make him white. Whitey doesn't like us neither unless we are serving them juh-eye-rohs.
>>
I liked her, but "sarcastic bitch" is my favorite female love interest archetype.
>>
>>93941895
What bothers me is that she's just that.
It's the same question OP posed
What even is her purpose
Why write a character that's only that.
I really don't understand
I expected her to do something else but no she's just a cunt and that's it.
>>
>>93941896
>>93941854

It would have made more sense if she was a native american and speaking on their behalf.

Also it's funny when these black characters speaking for another minority are written by white people because it means it's not even black people speaking it.

Orange is the New Black made me cringe so hard this year because of it.

1: whites are already a minority
2: we whites will never die off cause prolong exposure over many generations will lighten or darken the natives skin colour based on their climate.
3: the free world isn't so racially insecure that they need people of their skin color in various roles to enjoy a story.

The theatre I was in was packed and from what I could tell, a lot of people enjoyed Michelle's scenes, even the Washington monument one. They were silent at the MJ reveal though.
>>
>>93941932
oh look a fridge
>>
>>93941929
But Tinkerer said it, not MJ. Michelle made the line about the Washington Monument which was stupid simply because her statement was overly simplified and overall a shit joke

Spider-Man Homecoming is like going on holiday, then coming home to discover the guy you left looking after your guinea pig has bought a new guinea pig and put it in your guinea pig's enclosure

It's cute and fluffy and likes being held, but it's not what you wanted, you wanted your guinea pig, this just feels like an awful offensive lie.

There are only three Spider-Man characters in Spider-Man Homecoming done right, and one of them is given the wrong name, everything else feels like a horrible lie

Michelle J. Nicknamed "MJ". A reimagining of Michelle Gonzáles from the comics given Mary-Jane's classic nickname to tease Michelle's status as Peter's endgame in the MCU.

Kevin Feige has explained it often.
>>
>>93941827
I mean, as loath as I am to agree with /pol/ they're not wrong. Humans are hard coded to seek increased genetic diversity within a certain limit (possibly because we're actually really genetically bottlenecked). It's why people of mixed race are often so attractive. They're genes are incredibly diverse but not so different from your own that you perceive them as a member of an out group. White people will probably go extinct at some point due to the intermingling of races, but it's not really a problem, it's just what we're genetically disposed towards.

I honestly think it's the opposite and that Disney will force them to double down. I truly think Sony was on board until the reaction to the rumor which seemed to be like FemmeBusters and they wanted to back down and just make her MG. Where as Disney/Feige seems like the faggots to say "NO, WE WANT ZENDAYA AS MJ SO HER INITIALS WILL BE MJ."

Just like they snuffed Ben and changed the character Manuel to Flash when they couldn't have black Mary-Jane.

I'm confused because in High School there was this brown tomboy chick who ended up liking me and we got drunk at a party and she pinned me down. I was trying to get away because it was at my friend's house and I didn't want to get caught by his family. We got caught and I was pissed because I was totally turned on but then I couldn't dog sit for that family anymore because they probably thought I would use their house as a secret sex dungeon while they were gone.

If she had just been fucking patient. that totally could have happened. Fucking high school.

While I hated MJ there were a few things I expected to hate but grew on me or just surprised me.

1. Ned. Turns out he was alright.
2. Flash. Hated him, until the monument incident and the "hold my trophy" climb the women moment. The the cutback to the part of him chanting Penis parker did get me to chuckle as cheap and shitty as it was. If this fucking mexipoo really means it when he says he wants to please people and hits a gym like a DCEU actor then he could do the "Spider-Man inspired me to not be the type of faggot that climbs over women to escape the elevator."
3. the moment you posted was pretty well done and actually seemed a bit more serious than I expected the movie to get. Didn't expect to see a high school boy crying for help with Disney doing things.
4. The scene with him eating the sandwich is just like that "today will be your lucky day" page of him eating the chinese food under the umbrella. Just, you know, this is the MCU so it's a sunny moment before the man who he was just bullshitting with gets his whole life ruined.
5. That fucking car scene was good. Keaton clearly came for the check but he did enough with that scene to make one of the better MCU villains.

I really didn't like Aunt May though. I thought that dinner scene was the worst of the movie. They kind of made her really professor trelawny-ish while trying to still keep up the "everyone wants to fuck May" idea. She was much hotter in Civil War so it made sense.

"guy in a wheelchair!" , his dream come true, that was cute, and he saved peter from shocker #2. also a bonus point for wannabe sidekick.

Vulture's suit was cool , menacing, and it made sense.

Not that I have a problem with May knowing, but they could easily make it that May is still unaware and that Peter just told her it was a costume.

She is one of the most minor characters in the movie, barely has like 4 or 5 lines total, and doesn't tie into any of the story arcs of the film

And yet, gets discussed more than Spider-Man or Iron Man or anyone else in the whole movie

I liked her, all of her lines were funny. Also she's really cute and could be hot if they give her a makeover.

I'm not sure if she can be a good MJ if she's really MJ though. But I'm interested in what direction the sequel will take her.
