Discussion Two people who literally LOST EVERYTHING and STILL chose to do good..

Post image

There are countless characters that went through challenges, but none like them.

I will forever look up to these two individuals for what they have always done. No matter what they went through, they still chose the right path.

they gloss over it in the movie but he had to have done something. either that or he mysteriously had a lot of cash if he was really just fighting crime 24/7. he didn't need stark money but hes gotta pay rent and eat somehow and he covered expenses long enough for Ned and MJ to graduate, refill his spider juice shooters, fix his suit, build some kinda automatic AI soldering station. punisher was at least just squatting on a boat and not above stealing things.

the product placement didn't help either (I think everyone uses a $1000+ fold phone).

Yeah he definitely needed a side hustle but with all his tech and knowledge it was probably internet base, i.e. something he could do at home, something in the world of crypto maybe. They also made a point to show that his apartment originally was just a storage space, so he probably isn't paying all that much for it.

Spider-Man's real superpower: somehow still paying rent in New York.

With how often some disaster happens in New York I can't imagine the rent being that high...

Renters insurance is probably more than the rent
