With Spider-Man: Homecoming out on DVD, enterprising cineastes wasted no time meticulously cobbling together gifs that feature Tom Holland getting out of his civilian clothes and into the iconic costume.
A joy to ogle, though it makes us wonder what would have been had the 21-year-old gotten his way and performed “fully naked” sex scenes.
Perhaps we’ll get that in the sequel?
In the meantime…
How about we take this to the next level?

Friendly reminder that you are sexually objectifying an actor portraying a 15 or 16-year old on screen. Sure Tom Holland is attractive; but still hella creepy.

Tom Holland is a 21 year old man. If he was playing a 21 year old in the scene would that be okay with you? Honestly asking. Seems off to fixate on the fictional age of the character.

Creepy because…? I don’t get it. If my kid finds the Vulcan on Star Trek sexy, is that creepy because Vulcans aren’t human? What if my sixteen-year-old finds Tom Holland sexy? Is that creepy because Tom Holland isn’t really a teenager? I think on some level you just have to accept a fantasy for what it is.

WON’T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?! (Or not!)

Dumbest logic ever.

Would it be okay if my fantasies don’t include anything Peter Parker related?

It’s creepy due to the context; Queerty writers have been bemoaning that the movie didn’t include these fully nude scenes Holland jokes about, when the movie is about a 15-year old.
I have no qualms with people objectifying the actor. He’s an adult and he’s attractive and he’s certainly comfortable with his body. Bringing that into a movie, the context of which asks you to believe that Holland is a minor, is what is creepy.

Well, I guess you have a right to feel creeped out, Kieru, just as have a right to feel creeped out by Hawaiian pizza, thongs and ketchup on a hotdog. Oh, and autotune.
But are the things that I find creepy hurting anybody? I think that’s the important question. Or do I just find them disturbing and inexplicable? I think if nobody’s getting hurt, well, I’m probably better off expending my mental energy on something else.

Regarding an above post, does it help that I totally objectified Tuvok on “Star Trek Voyager”? The episode where he is in his training outfit, training the recruits…mind meld with me, Tuvvy. Vulcans aren’t real beings, but I would cure his Pon Farr. Oh, is there a real actor behind that portrayal? This wasn’t an episode of “Bug Juice” on the Disney Channel. No one was objectifying a child.

I can’t blame Tommy for wanting to take his clothes off. Beauty should be seen, not hidden.
Mike
He DID want to take his clothes off. Apparently a full frontal scene was his suggestion. But the studio vetoed it.

He should follow the lead of that other Billy Elliott (Dean-Charles Charman) and do a j.o. tape with his best-friend/assistant who is as hot as he is.

Silliest reasoning ever. Besides, there is nothing wrong with observing that a 16 year old is a good looking guy. If your head goes past that, maybe you need some counseling.
However, in this case, the focus is a fully legal adult and to take it to where you went is what’s weird.
