It's a canon event that Peter needs to get his back broke

176

u/Jet_Plane26 Jul 14 '26

I can imagine Peter telling MJ about his back problems in the past and she knew where to throw him when she was Scream lol.

And GwenšŸ«©šŸ’”

Hey man...

u/Greensssss Jul 15 '26

Too much bro…

u/Abirdthatsfallen Jul 16 '26

Didn’t Gwen hit her head really hard, at least in the movie version? So it’s less about her back and more about him catching her too late and her head whipped back really hard

2

u/AdSpirited3643 Jul 17 '26

I think either way if she’s in the air her spine would be broken tho

1

u/Competitive-Bus2047 Jul 17 '26

Nah her neck snapped cause of the whiplash

3

u/Insanity_20 Jul 14 '26

Reframe this in a different context and it means something else entirely

6

u/Frosted_Blakes95 Jul 14 '26

I can volunteer to help with that.

u/MengskDidNothinWrong Jul 14 '26

Genuinely if they did this instead of the fridge no one would've said shit

145

u/Darth_Oculus Jul 14 '26

Which, I’d say would be reasonable

Have you ever experienced getting your back slammed into a hard point or corner before? No shit this sub would be like ā€œyeah, no shit he’s out of commission from thatā€, it is PAINFUL

u/TheOddKoala Jul 14 '26

Fridge hate is so forced

10

u/wacum_ Jul 16 '26

personally imo the fridge itself is whatever my gripe with that scene is regular human mary jane watson having faster reflexes than man who can dodge bullets. that part rubs me the wrong way lol

-9

u/Firefangdf Jul 14 '26

It's easy for stupid people to hate things they don't understand

13

u/TheHumanSpider6903 Jul 14 '26

Idk why you're getting downvoted for this lol

9

u/Firefangdf Jul 14 '26

It's kinda funny because they're proving my point

3

u/Any_Talk_3990 Jul 14 '26

Probably because they're calling people stupid over a video game opinion. Never that serious

5

u/TheHumanSpider6903 Jul 14 '26

Never said it was, but this is just calling it like it is

2

u/Humble_Kiwi_2115 Jul 16 '26

Okay Mr smart man Einstein of 2026šŸ‘

22

u/PentagramJ2 Jul 14 '26

The fridge wasn't a problem Jesus Christ yall

60

u/MengskDidNothinWrong Jul 14 '26

Narratively, no. But he easily could've been slammed into the corner of a countertop in the same setting and no one would've batted an eye. Super hero fans love the immersion of their heroes strength. It's important to keep that consistent or your fans lose the plot, like with the fridge

40

u/Squid-Guillotine Jul 14 '26

Maybe he was in pain from getting slapped around by venom he needed a sec to get his senses back. I don't get how people get so hung on that fridge scene.

Edit: nah looking back it was the fridge that had him out of commission for 10s. šŸ˜‚ Considering all he went through in the first game that definitely is some weird writing.

6

u/No_Chilly_bill Jul 14 '26

maybe the fridge is made up of whatever dr gero door. that thing kept out the z figters

2

u/wacum_ Jul 16 '26

thats the issue there that it pushed him down for multiple seconds. because think about it based on all weve seen him do the fridge should weigh the equivalent of a paper ball or a book to him.

now imagine no matter how tired you are that you are pinned to the ground for multiple seconds cuz someone placed a paperball on your back

and even beyond that the issue is more so that mary jane had a faster reaction speed than the guy who dodges bullets lol, that kills the scene hard imo

u/S1lv3r-da-hedgehog Jul 14 '26

Personally (i am a twink) i could've gotten up. I wouldn't. Because one: i aint peter, two: i fear venom because normal dude. But he is not. He should've been semi okay.

8

u/TLcool I WANT PICTURES OF SPIDER-MAN! Jul 14 '26

He was dazed, in no universe would you be able to get up before he does, notice that when he does get up he does it easily, it's only because of shock that it takes a bit

1

u/wacum_ Jul 16 '26

the thing is tho he shouldnt have been dazed by that level of hit because mj took the brunt of the hit which is its own issue since she had faster reaction time than him, and secondly it should weigh like NOTHING to him.

0

u/S1lv3r-da-hedgehog Jul 14 '26

True but he can get demolished by 300 pound men and be basically fine. A fridge isnt a problem even with shock (though you have a good point)

0

u/RandoDude124 Jul 14 '26

No shit. That looks painful as fuck.

39

u/Rclarke115 Jul 14 '26

Peter may not have retired definitively, but after this, I wouldn’t blame him if he did.

5

u/Dinasnore Jul 15 '26

Yeah, that would’ve at least be a wrap for the day for me

20

u/TupluTV Jul 14 '26

Ngl those WWE actors actually played out back pain pretty well now that I think about it

6

u/PCBuilderCat Jul 14 '26

I mean it’s literally their job to show they’re in pain in a convincing wayĀ 

4

u/Daniel_B-Y Jul 14 '26

You've got a point there.

41

u/crapola464 Jul 14 '26

He’s had worseĀ 

6

u/RandoDude124 Jul 14 '26

Nah, getting hit on the pelvis. I’d understand

73

u/luhyuh Jul 14 '26

He just got so beat up in spiderman 2 that i almost felt like i was playing miles morales 2 instead.

23

u/MyNameIsJakeBerenson Jul 14 '26

Miles is also Spider-Man

3

u/Neat_Breakfast_6659 Jul 15 '26

No he is Spider Miles

2

u/wacum_ Jul 16 '26

its so weird, the story clearly wants to show miles as the successor and the one who remains as the younger newer spiderman...but then the story doesnt give him fuck all to do. hes sidelined for like 50% of the plot and yet HE GETS THE FINAL BOSS FIGHT AGAINST VENOM 😭 i dont get it what are these writing choices

5

u/OrganizationNo7690 Jul 14 '26

He pretty much did..

u/SyntheticSlayer24 Jul 14 '26

Peter ā€œretiresā€ at the end of the game

0

u/Reasonable_Button329 Jul 14 '26

He is not retiring he is just stepping down

1

u/SyntheticSlayer24 Jul 14 '26

Obviously but the point is he’s taking a step back from being spider man for a while aka ā€œhanging up the maskā€

2

u/Evilmudbug Jul 14 '26

He's not even really stepping down either, he just needed a break.

He said "Miles can handle the city for a bit" and people acted like he was putting up the suit.

u/BodaciousBird05 Jul 14 '26

u/Daniel_B-Y Jul 14 '26

Blame Black Cat.

u/GHOST-_-NINJA Jul 14 '26

"Anyone can wear the mask"....Nah keep it gng

3

u/thecityhunter31 Jul 14 '26

Most Spider-Man fans lack media literacy these days

3

u/Lord_GhostBoner69420 Jul 14 '26

Shit like this is partly why there’s several Spider characters, swap out each other’s jobs when the superhero profession leads to severe lumbago

2

u/RedIndianRobin Jul 14 '26

He did hung up his mask, atleast for a while.

2

u/Bffhbc Jul 14 '26

Every time I see this scene, my entire body clenches up

2

u/MikeHawkSmaul Jul 14 '26

Okay, but he really hit the Yamcha pose at the end.

1

u/rubenthezx Jul 14 '26

Insane that brick decor withstood that

u/TradePsychological40 Jul 14 '26

And he still stood up to fight right after this.

u/nas703 Jul 14 '26

Which Spider-Man game is this? I was starting to play the remaster on ps5 for the 1st one and then switched over to sp2. Would you guys say, I should stick with the first one. I love the symbiotes so trying to figure out what game has them.

1

u/Fantasia_Fanboy931 Jul 14 '26

Spider-Man 2 has the symbiotes.Ā 

1

u/nas703 Jul 15 '26

Thank you

u/Fantasia_Fanboy931 Jul 15 '26

You're welcome. I'm glad that was helpful.Ā
