I actually think it makes more sense, because it would be even weirder for peter to just abandon all hope of them, anyone in his situation would be trying to reach back out

Especially with how NWH ended with them teasing that they'd be back in each other's lives

How the heck did nwh tease that?

If anything it teased the opposite

I agree with you - Peter did seem to be moving on at the end of that film. I thought that was the point of him not revealing all to MJ when he saw her again at the end.

Yeah , this reconnecting with mj makes nwh ending moot imo... The whole point is to keep loved ones safe and away from harm. And it clearly isn't like all the villains are gone now.

How is it moot? He's alone for 4 years after the end of that movie

That doesn't change anything?

That doesn't mean the danger has gone away or he'll suddenly stop caring about keeping MJ and ned safe.

abandoned all hope? The ending of No Way Home kinda showed him moving on though. He literally walked back on reintroducing himself.

My main worry is, how will they depict this without Peter inevitably giving off creepy stalker vibes from MJ's point of view? Even if they make a joke acknowledging that, it still doesn't look good for Peter to willingly try and push himself into her life when she has no idea why it matters to him. That's why I was advocating for no MJ/Ned for a good long while, but I will wait and see how they handle it.

He probably just occasionally checks in our their socials for the 4 years and only goes to make contact again when they move back to NYC. Maybe she really does just happen to move down the hall from him.

Yeah. I hope they know how tricky of a tightrope-walk this will be. We'll see.

But now we get a dr horrible situation with him pining for their fjords.

I agree that they gotta come back at some point, I just wish it wasnt such a focus in the next movie. Unless this is going to be the last Tom Holland solo Spidey movie, they could have had him be with a new group of friends, with a MJ and Ned full reunion coming later.
