Media sometimes uses a snarky butler as a sign of a weak or ineffectual employer, but man, if I had that kind of money, I’d pay extra for a butler who was quick-witted enough to just burn me to the ground at a moment’s notice.
Danny Devito and Jeff Goldblum both give off chaotic energies, but in opposite directions. One is the yin to the other’s yang. However, both are everyone’s uncle
Okay so there’s always been one thing about Spider-man that has always bothered me, and it has nothing to do with the character.
It’s about his room.
In Captain America: Civil War, Peter’s room is not much to look at. It’s got a twin bed, a crappy desk and a computer that Peter had to scrounge out of a dumpster. He’s middle class, and his aunt has to pay New York rent, so it’s understandable.
But look at his room in Homecoming.
Look at all the stuff he has. The twin bed has been replaced by a nice bunk bed, the crappy desk is now new, and his computer went from a relic to top of the line. Not to mention all of the new stuff he has. His room used to just be blank walls, but now it’s a teenager’s dream.
There’s no way in a period of what is only a few months that his family would be able to have enough money to pay for even half of this.
I had always thought this was a continuity error, but then I had a revelation.
Who has enough money to pay for this? What man would buy a whole new room for a kid that he learns has been dumpster diving to get a decent computer?
Tony. Freaking. Stark.
He’s not the most emotional person. Tony’s own father was distant and strict, so Tony has no idea to show any kind of affection in the paternal sense.
But if he knows one thing, it’s money. He’s got it, a lot of it, and he’d be damned before he’d let a kid smart enough to design his own web slingers work on an Apple 2 computer left over from the 1970s.
If you think that Tony doesn’t care about Peter, then you would be dead wrong.
