Does she share literally a single trait with comic MJ outside of being a female classmate of Peter Parker? What's even the point?

It's the absolute example of fence sitting. They didnt really want to piss off all the nerds, but they wanted to appear woke.

Is her name even Mary Jane Watson

Michelle Jones

Then she is a OC

She'll work as peter's cum holder, and that's it

Srsly nobody will work until they bring Felicia properly to screen

No. Its michelle jones. See They wanted to have a black MJ to pander to minorities and the press, but also wanted to be able to say "Its not her!"

She's a deliberate Reverse-MJ
Not a party girl, not pretty, not care free, not white

jameson's granddaughter?

Yeah, so in the next movie Mary Jane Watson will still be able to show up. Like, as a rival to MJ.

Literally the only trait MJ has is she's Pete's girl so what's it matter?

Michelle (Last Namr Unknown)

>outside of being a female classmate of Peter Parker
When has MJ ever been a classmate of Peter's in the comic?

Bitches Love Spiderman

Outside of being friends with Peter? Absolutely nothing. Not the girl next door. Not the childhood friend. Not the attractive childhood friend that became a supermodel. Severely lacking in the chest department. You could had replaced her with a boy and literally nothing would had changed.

She should have said "grandpa!?" on post credits

Green goblin tosses Nu-MJ off a bridge and we get classic MJ as a replacement

>female character that have no character traits other than being MC gf
>in 2019
Based?

Both are insufferable cunts. So there is that.

>invent new character to be Peter's love interest
>"when are we geting MJ or Gwen Stacey REEEEEE"
>use established love interest
>"this is nothing like the comics/raimi films REEEEEEEEE"
>make new love interest with similar initials to established character so you can have your cake and eat it
>slightly softer REEEEEE

She's not Mary Jane Watson. She just shares some initials, as a joke. Her name isn't Mary Jane Watson so you can stop obsessing over the fact that she's not Mary Jane Watson since she's not Mary Jane Watson.

Why was Aunt May so hot? When did Peter tell Aunt May he was Spider-Man? Why did the blond Betty date the fat Asian during the trip?

1. Because.
2. Joke at the end of Homecoming
3. Because it's funny.

Pete didn't meet MJ until college. That was a running gag in the highschool comics, that his neighbor kept trying to set him up with her and he kept ditching.

Because they want to get a lot of movies out of this series, and they don't want to hire a withered old crone that's comic accurate that'll die after one or two of them.
He didn't, she caught him changing at the end of Homecoming.
Ned Leeds and Betty Brant get married in the comics.

>outside of being a female classmate of Peter Parker
Not even that given MJ was never a classmate of Peter. He met her after finishing High School.

I'm 100% sure they were intending to make her the real Mary Jane but they testing the audiences reaction to it, which was negatory... So they backed up. They planned that out, using the initials and ready to backtrack..

However. This makes it impossible to use the actual MJ now so...

This. I thought I said it in this thread. She was a model and a neighbor Aunt May got Peter hooked up with. Back in the good old days when people would help each other date rather than act like you deserve to die if you're single.

>will never experience teenage love with a dorky but good girl who loves you and all your flaws and grow together as the two of you work through what life throws at you because it's a genuine, pure kind of love
Far f-f-f-rom home is shit guys I didn't enjoy a single bit of it

>What's even the point?
Why dont you leave the big thinking to the big boys. They did their focus groups and found out real people are tired of the same ol shit so they changed it up while still paying homage to the old and busted storyline. Nobody that matters was turned away from watching the film and the massive profits speak to the quality of the new direction. There was been 0 negative effects of getting rid of the inferior version

Faggot.

>Mary Jane
>inferior
Hell no she isn't.

>and the massive profits speak to the quality of the new direction
the people have spoken with their wallets. they like this version better

>Nobody that matters was turned away from watching the film and the massive profits

Box office success is misleading in Hollywood, a movie can make a lot of money at first, but when people realize they didn't like, they can't resell the movie and get DVD sales or rental sales if it has bad worth of mouth. Same thing happened with Iron Man 3... Made a lot of money opening day... Theaters were empty the rest of the week. TV networks don't even play it because it gets bad ratings. They had to make that "Hail To The King" short to make up for the fucking backlash.

But hey opening weekend made money right? We just never ever got an Iron Man 4...

>There was been 0 negative effects of getting rid of the inferior version

Besides a good chunk of people not watching these movies.

Just because they paid to see a spiderman movie with this knockoff off brand version of the character doesn't mean they wouldn't have also paid just as much to see a movie with an actual Mary Jane Watson. There are other things in these movies care about.
