Not Spoiler Free

Just realized Ian and Barley Lightfoot are in fact Peter Parker and Peter Quill

Chris Pratt characters AKA Barley + Quill: obsessed with something "weird" (history; music), messy transportation (Guinevere; Milano), has alter-ego name (Wizard name that i forgot; Star-Lord), a "screwup", good at "your gonna get us killed" plans, fun, carefree, caring, ran away from their dying parent in a hospital room

Tom Holland characters AKA Ian + Parker: longs for connection to dead father (Dad; Uncle Ben), smart, quick thinkers, dresses preppy, A N X I E T Y, skinny, doesnt give up when it matters, caring, finds a new father figure (Barley; Tony)

So Ian — terrified of merging, refuses to drive, wont upset a classmate, struggles to talk to people he may or may not be friends with, can only speak up if its to a stranger, is always scared about getting into trouble — is me in Middle School and early High School

And Barley — unashamedly into history, will talk about his interests to anyone and everyone, is down to go on a dangerous quest with no warning at all, drives to school to embarress his little brother, says f you to authority, can think of a long and complicated excuse on the spot, is good at sounding like everything is ok when in reality everything just went horribly wrong — is me in later High School and now College

so its no wonder why i found them both so relatable but i only just now figured out why

HOW COME NO ONE TOLD ME ONWARD WAS A PHENOMENAL MOVIE
