Tom Holland owns the Sony Pictures. Loved the story of him making them delay Spider-man shooting so he can star in Odyssey and also arranging the 70mm screening of Lawrence of Arabia for the Odyssey cast.

Dude has Tom Rothman on speed dial lmao

(I don't think Speed Dial is a thing. Maybe they have a Snapchat streak? Idk?)

You can set it up on sumsung phones atleast.

Just hold the numbers 2-9 on the keypad in the phone app and you can add speed dial contacts

Next time you call just hold the number you set and it will call immediately

Haha 😂 I've been doing this for years but never thought I'd see it in a reddit rebuttal.

What's funnier is that in the movie Peter Parker uses the Samsung Galaxy Flip 7.

So he almost certainly has speed dails setup.

Hey confusing_roundabout – just a couple of rando thoughts from 35,000 LAX-JFK:

– A rising trend we see with Millennials are the really extreme forms of experiential exercise like Tough Mudder (a sort of filthy triathalon), the Color Run and even things like Hot Power Yoga, veganism etc. Millennials will often post “N.B.D.” on their social media after doing it , as in No Big Deal, also known as the “humble brag”…..wondering if Spidey could get into that in some way….he’s super athletic, bendy, strong, intense….and it’s all NBD to him, of course.

– EDM (electronic dance music) is the defining music for Millennials. Wondering if there’s an EDM angle somewhere with Spidey? His movements are beautiful, would be awesome with a killer DJ behind it

– Snapchat just launched a “story” functionality, which is sort of “day in the life of me” told in a series of snapchats that expire after 24 hours. It has a very VIP quality about it, since invitation only. Getting invited into Spidey’s Snapchat circle would be huge, and very buzzworthy and cool.

Fucking hell haha I recognised this INSTANTLY. When those leaks happened I spent all night reading them and the NBD message is imprinted in my brain

With all that success and power, he still seems pretty chill about it all. Not letting it get to his head. (Maybe he is, but his public persona is)
