Demsel in distress
Hello so I want to ask you if you think that the motive demsel in distress can still be done with MJ but in a way that doesn't change her into a plot device or flatten her character?
In the Rami trilogy every movie had MJ being kidnapped by villains so Peter could save her. As the old saying goes " fool once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me" after the first two I think MJ would go to some self defense lessons.
Once when I watched the MJ x Peter essay and I liked the comic to which he referred. In that comic green goblin tries to kill MJ the same way Gwen died, but the difference is that MJ is not Gwen and Peter is more mature which present how he saved MJ from falling by shooting multiple webs to slow down MJ falling instead of one which resulted Gwen snapping her neck back then.
So what do you think?
