3. Homecoming 2. Far from home 3. Into the spider-verse love you guys
Spider verse, amazing spiderman 2, spiderman 2
Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2, and Into the spider-verse
Im disappointed you didnt comment on the part were the goblin disintegrates the oscorp execs. That scene traumatized me as a child that's why the movie is pg 13
1. Into the spiderverse
2. Spiderman 2
3. Far from home
The fact that they brought J.K. Simmons back as Jonah in the MCU 17 years later shows just how epic a legacy he created with this movie.
It's like Hugh Jackman to Wolverine, or RDJ to Iron Man.
There's just some casting decisions where it's so perfect and on point, that even the producers know nobody else could fit the role. You don't see an actor portraying a comic book character, you see a comic character come to life.
Hell, didn't JK do the voice of Jameson in one of the cartoons as well?
@@N-GinAndTonicTM I think it was the ultimate spiderman cartoon but I'm not too sure.
it was 12 years after his last appearance in the role
Seventeen years ago? Ouch.
@@ol4037 no, Spider-Man 3 was in 2007, that was the last movie and it was 12 years before Far From Home
Nostalgia Critic: "I've always thought the Raimi films were overrated".
Spider-Man fans: "Misery, misery, misery, that is what you have chosen. I offered you friendship and you spat in my face".
batshineman You’re trash critic
Nostalgia Critic is a trash critic.
I love him but goddamit he spits on everything I love.
Funny fact all critics that was making videos about new spider man being better than Raimi's including NC, Forgot that new spider-man even exists 35:00.
P. S. yeah there was a movie about spiderman between Raimi's and homecoming. Hard to believe but its true.
David Barrios gonna cry?
"I don't get why this was PG 13"
Green Goblin blew up people to skeletons, blew up Spidey to a bloody pulp and get impaled by his own gliders blades.
THAT'S WHY!
Yeah, the final fight was incredibly gruesome. I don’t think we’re ever going to have a superhero film with that violent a fight ever again.
And sexual references
And the fact Mary Jane was seemingly going to get raped by a couple of guys before Spider Man saves her.
And the scene where he beats up the robber, and the scene where he goes mental wailing on the goblin at the end. That's why it wasn't rated PG over here in the UK
@@CitizenSnips you right it was a 12 wernt it I remember my little brother couldnt come 😂😂👍
Green Goblin: "I could take your mask off right now!"
Spider-Man: "I know but don't"
Green Gooblin: "But I want to!"
Spidr-Mon: "But I don't want you too"
Gren Gblin: "But I could!"
Spider_min: "But you won't"

how dare this comment not have more likes
@@Nerdzilla2002 he literally says it in the video
The part where Jameson won't tell the goblin about Peter just makes his character a badass
It's a hidden sense of Honor. He'll protect his employees from any threat
YEAH! As shitty as Jameson can be, you can absolutely tell that he values his company and employees (in his own way).
I thought the same thing too haha, but then I realized that without peter, he won’t have anymore pictures of Spider-Man.🤔
I remember asking that when I was saw this movie as a kid.
My older brother told me that a newspaper publisher will always protect his sources as a matter of pride.
That's actually one of the most faithful character adaptations from the comic books. Jameson has adamant journalist's integrity. He once fired Peter, someone who's worked for him for years and has always delivered only the best Spider-Man pics for the paper because he spliced some pics. Jameson looked at Peter as if Pete was dead to him. The guy hates Spider-Man's guts but he's a spectacular journalist
Jameson protecting his sources makes total sense.
He's a journalist with an ethical duty to protect his sources. He constantly spins stories but he knows peter is just a kid and he doesn't want to endanger him. You have to consider Jonah is the head of a major media empire and it comes with the territory with him that he'd be a target. Kinda makes Jonah way more likable.
Bad Dragonite he is also just a nice guy he does not like vigilantes bc his son (an astronaut) and others like him never get the praise of spider man as they aren’t seen as the larger than life people they are or at least that’s what I remember
@@aminacunningham146 Well that and JJJ had a bad experience with a guy in a mask sometime in his past which resulted in him having a bias against people in masks
When I thought about that, I began to think that maybe he actually cares about Peter, even if he won't admit it.
@@SuperHuscarl that's how I feel. He's tough but he cares about him.
Remember that Family Guy cutaway where Peter thinks a guy is a jerk and learns he gives money to orphans with diseases
That’s the equivalent of JJJ protecting Peter even when he’s not paying him for those exclusive shots
J.K. Simmons is easily the best part of this whole movie. Toby Maguire's awkwardness and Willem Defoe's pure insanity are close seconds, but Simmons is the true meme. The difference is we're laughing WITH him, not at him.
I would not say it like that, i would say it like JK SImmons is the best part AS SIDE character in this movie, so he complements some cheese humor, and maybe some pacing issues(which honestly are not that of a problem). Also Director cut for second movie is amazingly fun, when he wears Spider-Man costume, its hilarious, also his jokes are the best parts of the movies. 😄😂
@@milosstojanovic4623 I pray to god if goblin is involved with the third mcu spiderman,Dafoe better reprise his role,like maguire is reprising his
“ Now get me pictures of spider man !
i mean his parts are great for sure but willem and toby are obviously carrying the movie.
I do not care. Willem Dafoe is still amazing in this movie. Even after all of these years I remember him. He’s definitely one of the most memorable villains I’ve ever seen.
I enjoyed that J.J.J. defended Parker and played ignorance. Regardless of the character's prejudices, he has journalistic integrity. Plus his hatred of both masks and criminals further shows why he's defiant to Goblin. In that scene, they deepen the character.
👍yes sir, you are right.
He defended him because he needed pictures
*Pictures of Spider-Man!*
The only well portrayed comic character in the movie.
I was just thinking about that scene the other day and realized, "Holy crud, Jameson wasn't a total jerk after all!" As a kid I both hated him for disliking Spider-Man, a guy trying to help the city, but also liked how JK Simmons brought him to life (not to mention that he was one of the best things about Spider-Man 3).
Jameson defended Pete in the Spectacular Spider-Man series too when Rhino was wrecking the Bugle. He was using hand signals to tell Peter to run. Just shows that even tho JJ maybe a sourpuss, he's got a heart of gold.
You sound so surprised that Peter cries on the day of his graduation that his uncle who recently died couldn't attend...I don't know maybe I'm crazy.
Edit: holy shit I didn't expect this much likes and support and so I'm gonna make an effort to reply to and give some perspective on these replies.
nah, he's crazy
Nah he's full of crap, it's completely understandable to cry on the day you accomplish something and the person who raised you is not there to experience it.
It's presented poorly though.
Toby is a terrible crier tho 😂 even in the theatres when we all took this serious, the crying was made fun of.
Yep, which is why it's logical Peter would mourn Tony Stark in the MCU, but people would rather ignore that and focus on "bUt hE'S noT UnClE BeN!"
The "You're the one who's out Gobby, out of your mind!" Is as authentic of a Spidey line as Wolverine sayin' Bub at the end of a sentence.
But it doesn't qwippy enough.
Yep, corny, but sounds like it came right out of a comic book, which is exactly what Raimi was aiming for. This remains one of the most comic booky comic book movies to date.
17:35, To be honest, thinking about a dead loved one randomly and crying over it is normal, at least for me.
"So Jameson's willing to put his life on the line for Parker?...It's possible, but you've gotta explain it." I don't think you do. Somebody could be a gruff, greedy jerk and still not want to give someone up to a psychotic murderer.
I don't get how Critic would think Jj would give Peter up like that. Like Jj can be a jerk but I doubt he would put his employees in danger especially in the hands of a psychopath. Jerk doesn't always equal emotionless asshole
While Jameson is often a jerk, he also is consistently shown to possess a basic sense of integrity and morality. He would never willingly endanger another person's life, especially one of his own employees. Jameson has never been portrayed as someone who would do something like that -- not in the source material, and not in any adaptations.
RisingHero Jerk with a heart of gold
Like the guy is a jerk but not an asshole.
Plus he has a son of his own, so Peter might remind him of him.

*CRITIC YOU SLIME*
The Rami films take their inspirations from 60's comics.More lighthearted with "cheese".
They still hold up surprisingly well.
They actually embrace the "comic book" in every. It is a comic book movie .
EXACTLY. Its not negative thing when you aim to do that, and it lands pretty much very good as far as "cheese" goes
@@milosstojanovic4623 I wish the avengers got the same treatment in 2000s cause im tired of serious and mopy movies when there one of the most lighthearted and goofy characters in comic history
Same goes for Joel Schumachers Batman Movies
@@blacklightentertainment2308 the mcu movies try to do two things at once they won't let a character not say a joke but they expect you to feel sad and it doesn't work
I've to admit, while I love the MCU Spidey films and the "Amazing" films deserve some praise, the Raimi trilogy is just very unique that I haven't see other movies able to replicate it. It really feels like a comic book movie rather than the current superhero movies.
Only the second Amazing film deserves extended praise. The first one has like two good scenes.
@@thefilmwatcher1302 Literally it's the exact opposite
Even Dafoe said he had the most fun in this movie. Honestly, I love his portrayal as the Goblin BECAUSE it's so over the top and Hammed. He literally is a comic book villain. Perfect Jekyll and Hyde feel that the Goblin has in the comics. Seriously, alot of the Goblin at the time in the comics was goofy and warped whenever he's behind the mask, but Norman was cunning and slick. Honestly Dafoe was born to play this role. Better than someone who played a SECOND in a not so "Amazing" Spider-Man...
Green Goblin in this was a more entertaining and memorable villain than anything from MCU. Screw Thanos.
@@Disconnect350 I do think the MCU has good villains, but they kill them off way too quickly. But I do think they set it up perfect for Norman to step in. See, in the MCU Tony is dead, someone needs to step up and replace Stark Industries. Enter Norman and Harry Osbourne, father and son. With their business, Oscorp. Now that he is in the films, they can use Oscorp and eventually unveil the Goblin however they want.
The nostalgia is strong lmao. He was cool as kid back in the day, but now, its so cringe and I can't help but laugh at him instead of with him. Just because its over the top and fun doesn't mean its good. He's like venom and im willing to bet you didnt enjoy that nearly as much.
@@Sadvillainy Depends which venom. Topher Grace wasn't a good venom, but I sorta did like his design. It was interesting to see a venom who perfectly mimicked the Tobey Spidey suit. But the performance was subpar. Tom Hardy was a decent venom and his design was a definite improvement. The only thing I didn't like about Hardy's venom wasn't even Venom himself. It was Woody Harrelson as Carnage. I can't see him as Cassidy and oh God that wig was so bad. Personally I would've cast the actor who played as Rorschach in the Watchmen films or if they were okay with a younger Cassidy, Cameron Monaghan would do really well.
The only problem is his suit :/ I MEAN WHY?! They had an awesome and creepy AF animatronic mask READY for the movie...and someone said 'oh nononono! No! This will the scare the shit out of kids!' - but hey...THAT WAS THE INTENTION OF GOBLIN AND HOBGOBLIN IN THE FIRST PLACE! - THE FACE OF PURE FEAR! :(
I actually like that Jameson sticks his neck out for Peter. In most stories Jameson is a good guy and is just against vigilantes. In spectacular Spider-Man he does the same thing.
I am glad they included it here too
I remember seeing a part of a comic where Jameson was asked why he bothered to hire an amateur photographer like Parker, and he referenced Uncle Ben's recent passing, saying something like "the kid needs help."
Maybe I'm awful, but I just assumed he didn't want to risk losing the guy that consistently brings in spider-man photos for which he underpays
Well, yeah, but Spectacular was actually well written and thoughtful. Remember the episode where his son becomes a superhero after his dad prompts him when he gains powers, only to turn into a rampaging giant? That show made kids think... That's why it had to be cancelled. Heaven help the USA if the next generation actually starts thinking about moral implications!
@@TonicSpirits Yeah JJ is not an evil man, he can be very kind and helpful. In Spectacular he even risked his life to protect Peter from the Rhino. He just averse to Spiderman due to his dislike of masked vigilantes.
Jameson might dislike lots of people, especially his subordinates. But he’s not gonna just let a man in a green goblin outfit who just killed people at a Macy gray concert murder a guy he knows is actually a protector and not a menace.
What do you mean?
@@maleficking6556 I think he's implying that Jameson knows deep-down that Spiderman is actually good for the city and a protector for it, but just demonizes him in the papers as a menace to sell more papers (kinda like how Skip Bayless probably knows deep-down that LeBron's a great player but overplays his hate for views).
@@saeedbaig4249 No, that wasn't about Spider-man, Goblin asked about who the hell was taking the pictures of Spider-Man. So he's not protecting Spider-Man as far as he knows, he's just not shoving Peter Parker under the bus for this whacko to find.
Maybe so. But my theory is that Peter is the only freelance photographer who works for Jameson for next to nothing basically. So if he outed Peter to the Goblin, he’d have to find another photographer who’s more expensive than Peter

_"I DON'T WANT YOUR OPINIONS, I WANT PICTURES OF SPIDER-MAN!!!"_
*~ J. Jonah Jameson*
Mr. Friendship you quoted that before
The Cyanide and Happiness short. (:|)
There's a theory that Jonah knows Peter is Spiderman, and that he actually supports him.
The reason he sound harsh and condemning is that he actually wants Peter to stay on his A-game, and that if he complimented Spiderman, the Webslinger would get lazy.
The Game Knight
In many ways, that actually makes sense, and is a great, plausible theory
@@thegameknight8916 I have a theory where JJJ is an agent of HYDRA. He's used not just The Daily Bugle, but his whole media empire, to not only make Spider-Man look bad, but every superhero in the Marvel U.
You can already hear J.K. Simmons in your mind go "Hail HYDRA!", can't you?
I feel like the PG-13 rating comes from the fact that Green Goblin killed a bunch of people on screen by turning them into skeletons.
Yeah he beat the living shit out of spidey and got impaled by his own glider on screen
The fight scene near the end where Peter and Norman are bleeding is definitely a cause for the PG-13 rating.
Also the terrorism
Jordthe destro1 There’s no way that movie would fly today with a climax like that
And you know Uncle Ben dying of a gunshot wound, which is visible
No mention of Danny Elfman's score? I think it's up there with the Batman theme
Exactly right.
Great soundtrack up there with john williams scores.
He rarely looks at score
Imo its better then the Batman score
Lol no. The Music is great but nowhere near the epicness of Elfmans Batman Theme
I actually loved the scene with William Defo talking to his mask. He's a great actor
"It's goofy and campy"
Totally unlike comic books. ;)
Ville Hammar it’s like they don’t realize it was purposely done like that, they even said that suit was inspired in the old comics.

Not to mention the super serious MCU Spider-Man movies where he does a re enactment of Ferris Beuler.

This episode defines Doug. "I hated it when everyone loved it and now that everyone hates it, I like it."
He is a contrain like brian griffin.
That's what a contrarian is
I mean, it's important to go against the grain. After all, echo chambers are not a good thing.
@@barryfraser831 yes but the intentions are equally as important. If you're simply going against the grain for the purposes of seeming like an individual it's as superficial as going with the consensus.
He just adds a new layer to hipster
Far as I know, Jameson covering for Parker is not out of character. Spectaculars version also put his neck on the line for Peter when Rhino stomped into the Office.
It shows that he might be a POS but he has journalistic integrity when it comes to not giving up the people that gave him that information.
Does anyone else feel his reviews of the spiderman movies are more annoying and much more cheesier than the films themselves?
Tell me about it! It's incredible how much low Doug's "humour" has fallen! And even if he never made the top 11 Dumbest Spider-Man moments I don't think these reviews would be much funnier or intresting.
Just like how his so-called “review” of Pink Floyd’s The Wall is more pretentious and full of itself than the actual movie.
The funny thing is that even though he says his opinion of them has changed a little bit I can still feel his old perception of them leaking through in these reviews, he’s pretty much saying “These movie are crap but they’re......enjoyable crap” I get the feeling he still dislikes them but he just wants the internet to get off his back about it so he forced himself to find a new context to view them in in order to call them good
@@benm5970 He literally says he enjoys it much more than he used to, he's just pointing out the flaws.
No
As cheesy as these movies can get, the earlier comics were JUST as cheesy. And that's the reason I love them, it's probably the most faithful adaptation of Stan Lee's writing style and tone.
Agreed
++++++++
Penis Time
big pp
And its not like the movies don't take themselves seriously either spiderman 2 is VERY melancholy and dark and smartly written. But this movie is just as much of a classic imo.
I liked the part where Green Goblin crashes through Aunt May's wall and tells her to finish the prayer because typically the villain says something edgy like "god can't save you now" instead we get Goblin taking pleasure in her praying to god for salvation because he takes delight in her suffering and helplessness the way an actual evil villain would
That scene where he looked down on her hovering with his staring yellow eyes was really haunting and perfectly shot.

Are we really not discussing how awesome and on point J.K. Simmons' character is?
I guess not
we are indeed, as I've seen more than a few comments about it already, but I'm guessing you are wondering why he didn't? Still plenty of time for that, 2 more movies to go and whatever else he does this month.
@@memorra 4 more. He's also going to review the other two non Sam Rahimi, non MCU, non Spiderverse movies
Why ? J. Jonah Jameson is J. Jonah Jameson, no need to expand on that.
He and Dafoe were easilly the most on point actors in this movie. JK Simmons puts far more effort in it then he is required to, for such a small role. Meanwhile Dafoe nails Osbornes insanity in the comics
Any movie with Willem Dafoe being Willem Dafoe is 10/10 in my books!
That now includes No Way Home
Including Speed 2? lol! (I did like that movie, mainly because of Dafoe.)
“People need to die younger”
Me: *laughs* That’s dark af
That quote aged like fine wine^^
I loved that!
A guy gets impaled in this movie, I think that more than earns its PG-13 rating.
Didn't he cough blood too? That's pretty intense...
That was fairly violent too
They Impaled Ursula from the little Mermaid
Max Schmidt there was no blood when Ursula was impaled.
@@sirgreg7124 Does that really make it better ?
I don’t think Jameson defending Peter by not giving him up needs to be explained at all?? 🤔🤔he’s never been portrayed as a bad person, why would he sacrifice an innocent person to save his own skin? Especially someone who works for him. He’s clearly a man of integrity, and we see that when he fires Eddie Brock for providing the bugle with fake Spider-Man photographs. As much as he hates Spider-Man, he’ll never string him up using fake evidence to do so.
Emperor Reign exactly he shits on Parker but why would he just allow the kid to be killed off?? Doug was being a clown with that comment.
Joe James Indeed, very nitpicky on this occasion 🤔🤔
Emperor Reign the amount of nitpicks during the time square festival fight alone were laughable.
Another reason is my personal theory that he knows he is Spider-man and creates articles demonizing him. Just cause he knows Peter as a teenager and Spider-man will and is always trying to prove him wrong. He knows if everyone knew it would put people he knows, himself included in danger. Along with the fact he only pays him so little to keep Peter Humble.
@@SkyeAndJulia No.
20:09
I know it's not brought up in the films, but in the comics it's established that Jameson's first wife was murdered by a masked gunman, and as a result Jameson resents anyone who wears a mask-including superheroes
In the original 60s run (volume 1 issue 9 or 10) it's because he's jealous of him.
When the critic completely misses the point of scenes in this movie....
Flashes back to the wall review...
He just brushed through the iconic kiss scene wtf?
Are you surprised?
"Why is this PG13?" Well you see a man impaled by a glider, a group of men vaporized and turned to skeletons, and oh yeah Green Goblin's creation scene
The creation of green goblin terrified me as a kid. Didn't stop me from watching it 100s of times.
The end scene where Green Goblin beats the ever-loving shit out of Spider-Man at the end of the movie.
That part of the review actually annoyed me. Just because Spider-Man is cornier than most superhero movies doesn't mean it takes less risks. Hell, I can't recall the MCU being more PG13. MJs visible nipples alone would be a no-go.
I always assumed it was because of the upside down kiss and Mary Jane's high beams.
The scene in the hospital with doc ock terrified me as a kid
The idea of the Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies being silly, cheesy and goofy were the point. Not only is it Sam Raimi's style, but Spider-Man comics themselves were over the top silly and goofy. That's why it was a perfect match, Sam Raimi working on Spider-Man films. They fit his style because the source material itself is silly and cheesy.
Sidious the 3rd one was flawed but compared to both Amazing Spider-Mans and That Venom movie they deserve recognition.
I agree with you on that!
*looks at Red Goblin, Carnage, Sins Past*
@@Maxibon2007 Thank you! I don't think enough people understand that.
Sidious it felt like an actual comic movie
These were 2000s movies, a time where CGI was still an evolving tech alongside treating the original content with as much respect as possible. It's a love hate series for everyone, but for me these three spiderman movies were the building blocks of spider man movies later on
Doug is too young to have read these sequences in the comic books. For us older guys, the 'cheesy' scenes and dialog were very nostalgic. Something I would think he could relate too. :)
“I still don’t see why this is PG-13” the blood, deaths, brutal beat down by goblin at the end, and goblin getting impaled on his on glider. Need I say more?
He was reaching hard with that one
When you remember Doug's track record of having possible, short term memory loss and failure to put 2 and 2 together on things that even a casual child would notice on most of the films he's reviewed, it isn't surprising either.
And Mary Jane's nipples. In the rain. Wearing a T-shirt.
Blood and deaths have been in multiple Disney movies that are rated PG, maybe the brutal beat down could be a bit intense for some young kids, but still. And yeah being impaled isn’t seen much in PG movies, but in Norman’s case it was honestly a pretty bloodless one, not helped by his “Oh” right before being impaled makes it a bit hard to take it seriously
And Green Goblin murdering people with bombs and machine guns
Jamerson. 'I don't know who he is, his stuff comes in the mail"
"in their last moments, people show you who they really are" -The Joker
That made you respect Jameson even if you didn't like him
Give me someone who gives you crap to your face but defends you behind your back over someone who is nice to your face, but badmouths you behind your back.
Jameson has shown this attitude in the comics and other sources alike. He's pretty rude and you're supposed to think he hates spiderman for no reason (even though he actually has a reason), but deep down he still cares about others.
Am I the only one who actually thinks the scene where the Green Goblin attacks Aunt May and makes her finish the prayer is legitimately terrifying?
Sure scared the crap out of me as a kid
Oh Critic is just finding every excuse to talk negatively about the movie.
I did as a kid, and still kind of do today. Actually, my GF saw it first time this week in her 20s, and she was into the scene. But myself, upon rewatch also in my 20s, you can't say it that it isn't a bit overacted and overdramatic 😂 Still, all the respect to Aunt May's actress.
I find the scene stupid and overly dramatic. But in a cool way. I think it has to do with the suit. Nothing can be scary with that stupid suit, but it can be cool
"Somebody pleeeeasee its only so long I can smile like a sitcom wife!!"
I'm dead. 🤣🤣
The dialog, camera shots, and everything else in these movies are meant to resemble a comic book, where as the more recent spiderman movies are meant to be more "movie" movie.
Solomon McGuire true as fan of the 90s Spider-Man some effects and really look like the cartoons.
not only that... Samie boy went into ridiculous lengths to make his scenes. Hell just look at peter's room. see how decorated it is and how much it aligns with his skills and character.
Yeah, Spider-Verse's animation style was WAY too boring and generic
Spiderverses animation style was actually very unique. They made it comic book animation. Tf lol
sill that doesn't make 'em good, ya know.
Not a mention about the fact that even if people dislike them, Peter's boss is still popular and great enough to be brought back to the MCU?
because j.k. simmons is the ideal j. jonah jameson as a real life person. he is THAT great. every time you see j. jonah jameson in the comics, you will always hear j.k. simmons' voice in your head. the people that made the MCU knew that j.k. simmons is too good as j. jonah jameson and so they brought him into SM: Far from Home.
@@danielscott5673 That was the point of my question asking why. Making fun of the movie doesn't mean Doug never explains the good things about them, because he does. But during that list of good things, j.k. simmons as j. jonah jameson was never brought up. That was the point of my question.
Still two more movies to go in this trilogy, perhaps he'll make reference to that fact at some point.
@@Buffy8Fan also he voiced jjj in the ps4 marvel's spiderman(at least i think so...)
I think he was in the new spider Man cartoon on Disney
"Let's spend our free time discussing how there is no free time." "Oh, that's very adult!" This is depressingly accurate…
Hahaha 😂😂😂😂
Only NC can tear apart one of my favorite movies of all time down to the atomic level and I will gladly enjoy every single second of it.
“The Spider-Mans were occasionally emotional but leaned more towards non-threatening imagery and ideas.” Meanwhile that scene where Goblin breaks into Aunt May’s room and sends her to the hospital because she was so frightened *horrified* me as a child
I remember seeing this in theaters and it blowing me away. Now the same scenes I find hilarious. That whole Aunt May scene is positively hilarious.
I still love this movie but for different reasons than I did as a kid.
That's NC's point. These movies were specifically geared towards children. And there's nothing wrong with that.
The burning building scene where goblin is crying under a blanket gives me ptsd till this day
As a _kid_ the Green Goblin terrified me, and Spiderman's brutal beatdown by him was one of the most horrifying things I had ever seen on-screen. But as an adult, it's all so goofy.
Bruh Goblin gets impaled on screen by his glider...showing the blades piercing his waist, blood foaming at his mouth, & dies on screen LMFAO. A shot Stylistically inspired from Raimi’s Evil Dead, just like the Doc Ock Hospital scene. Doug is fucking delusional & needs to stop making corny ass jokes, holy fuck LMAO!💀
"a drunken power ranger battle" - interestingly, Marvel allowed Toei to make a Spiderman show for the Japanese audience, which included Spiderman piloting a giant robot.
The following year, Toei incorporated the idea of heroes piloting a giant robot into their Sentai series (creating Super Sentai).
Many years later, Saban would begin adapting Super Sentai into Power Rangers.
So in a way, Spiderman has come full circle.
And now Japanese Spiderman is going to be in the sequel of Spider-verse.
Combat King 0, my fellow toku nerd,
I salute you!
I hope Japanese Spiderman is in Spider-Month
Why does Sentai sound like Spiderman hentai
@@ryanc970 nobody said it wasn't...
Still one of the best movie compared to today's superheroes movies
27:34 Was I the only one expecting a reference to the Evil Popcorn Guy from Free Willy?
Idiot
🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵
Yes. Not everyone is a fanboy here
The Raimi films are unironically brilliant. Fight me.
Definitely, they have a certain charm to them and have a good heart to them too.
I will admit that the Raimi Spider-Man movies are what got me into superheroes in general.
They're a mix between the comics Raimi would've read as a kid, and it was more mature in its themes as well. To say "ugh it's cheesy" is like saying "ugh it's got too many colours". Yeah, that's cause it's like the comics.
@@HappyLarry. Hasn't Spidey always been a bit cheesy, though?
jordan mitchell agreed
Bro that scene with Uncle Ben is pretty genuine. High schoolers are pretty much like this
High schooler here, can confirm.
@@runefaustblack Same, except my high school self died unfortunately not right after graduation though. Live, Suffer, and Learn.
I was also thinking he may just be flying off the handle because of the radioactive spider bite he received. All of the sudden he's a different person now. His whole DNA has been altered. Don't think you'd be all calm and cool and you're usual sweet self. So don't think it's just out of no where.
Kairu Hakubi that’s...actually pretty insightful

28:25 that awkward moment when you realize that wasn't staged, that was actually footage they caught Rob with his Dinosaur mask like that
NC: "People need to die younger."
Covid-19: "hold my beer!"
eh, almost everyone who has died from it has been over 60.
Yeah, I can't believe he said that five months before we lost Chadwick. Doug's a psychic.
Being a 14 year old that grew up with these movies when I was younger, I really don't like it when people my age say that these films are terrible and MCU Spider-man is better. The Spider-man trilogy is a masterpiece, even with all it's flaws and dated moments. For me, not only was seeing my favourite comic book character come to life amazing. But the way we see Peter grow as a person and deal with the bad parts of life was too inspiring and relatable for me, and still is now. That's only a fraction of the reasons I, and many other people love these films.
Ok. Boomer.
The WindyREDPanda Very original
I grew up with these movies too, but I gotta say, I really thought Far From Home was fun and good. If they can do a good job with 3 I’ll be really pleased with both trilogies
I appreciate and value the Raimi films more than MCU Spider-Man because Peter is his own self made man and didn't get everything handed to him since the very beginning.
@@virtualboy3596 The MCU Spider-man movies are good, and I'm not gonna try and say they are not. However, my personal issue with those movies is that Peter Parker doesn't really feel like Spider-man. Spider-man isn't meant to have a rich sugar daddy (Tony Stark) who gives him an awesome suit with all those gadgets. Also, Tony Stark has basically replaced Uncle Ben in the MCU, which is something I'm not a massive fan of. Also, the lack of consequences that Peter has to face in the new movies is also something I don't like, he always seems to get away with all of his problems; he leaves Liz at the homecoming dance, he destroys that man's shop (in homecoming), aunt May finds out Peter is Spider-man and...everything is fine. There's no consequences.
There are two things beneficial for adults in this movie: Willem Dafoe and JK Simmons. Every single time they're on screen is pure comedic gold.
I always cry when I see Peter snapping back at him and uncle Ben dying on the pavement. Sam Rami did this so well
I'll admit. Every single time that I saw the movie and the Goblin jumpscared the audience, I freaked out. I'm a scaredy cat, the kind who gets scared from the jumpscare in Zootopia. Plus my audio is pretty loud sometimes.
Spoiler Alert
It’s just Critic reviewing the Peter Parker dance for 40 minutes straight
Hamburger Sandwich that dance is as bad as it was before
That dance is amazing.
@@MrSasunaru101 that dance inspired the joker stair dance XD
That dance used to be panned back when the movie was released. And we have Aldo Jones to thank for reintroducing him as Bully Maguire. That's literally the only reason he's more enjoyed now.
That's for the third movie
"He's then exposed to all his farts from The Lighthouse..." That was a genuinely hillarious line 🤣

Sigh. 9/11. But to be honest, I think a lot of us at the time were happy to see New Yorkers uniting with each other. It was a tumultuous time of grief and confusion, so it honestly did help us get over our issues. I know it's campy now, but if you were aware of what had happened on 9/11 regarding American society, it makes sense and was a bit cathartic.
@@lunayoshi As a child trying to process what happened, this left such an impression on me. It's still one of my favorite parts of the movie.
24:30 I always liked that scene. Jameson is simply a man with principles which just happen to be mostly at odds with our hero. But he won't rat out an employee/source. That's where he still has some integrity.
Edit: I hadn't even looked at the comments before typing this. Seems like many people feel the same way.

bigevilworldwide1 ok

bigevilworldwide1 ok
@bigevilworldwide1 ok
@bigevilworldwide1 I can understand where you're coming from and I agree with some if not a decent amount of your points
The Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies were surprisingly ahead of their time. Nowadays, pretty much every scene has been made into a meme. It’s like Raimi could predict the meme culture of the modern day
24:35 It’s called journalistic integrity. A smart journalist protects their sources. But is it really so unbelievable that Jameson would protect Parker out of the goodness of his heart?
He doesn't know he is Spiderman to him Peter is just a kid.
Ironically even though he obsesses over the idea that spidey is a menace, most of the comics portray him as being a fantastic journalist. He strictly believez in journalistic integrity and unbiased reporting. Plus his bsckstory sorta points as to why he hates spidermen. His dad was a soldier who was physically abusive to his mum, and it caused him to devolop an inherent distrust to "heroes" because he always suspects they when out of uniform they are violent assholes. Honestly, he really isnt that bad of a person i the comics
@@MisterXenomorph
It still hilerious that he basicaly blames every evil ever on Spider-Man,playing the Ps4 spider-man game is so much more fun because of that.
"Some one stole your puppy?,well we saw SPIDER-MAN! with it,CLEARLY he has Stolen the Puppy so he can give it back and earn the rewards for "finding" it, What a Sick egomanic this guy is". is the kind of things Jamison says in that Game and its so accurate to the movie portrayal and the comics its funny xd.
@@larsliljeberg3970 His hatred for spidey has been overblown alot in recent media. Nowadays it borders on paranoia.
It's even in the novelization. Jameson knows that a good journalist always protects his source. And I love this small action because it adds a surprising layer of depth to the character.
That scene with Jameson willing to sacrifice his life is showing that jj is human, and has a sense of morals.
Nostalgia Critic: makes fun of spider man.
Fans: Misery, misery, misery, thats what you've chosen.
24:30
Stan Lee said it best; JJ is a good man. He cares about Peter and secretly admires Spider-Man. But he would NEVER admit to it.
Kinda like how Snape treats the students badly... but is willingly to protect them at the drop of a hat.
One theory is that he makes the bad press for Spider-Man to challenge him to continually be better.
@@xaayer Its basically what he does in Marvel's Spiderman (PS4).
He loves New York and respects Spiderman , but isn't afraid to call either out for every time a supervillain gets out or when collateral damage is done
What about MCU J.J. Jameson?

@@-Anonymous-. In his Old vs. New on the Spiderman movies
Xandu / XanduIsBored
You do know he was mostly praising very specific elements of the two films (like Peters character and his love interest Gwen)
He praised many elements of Rami’s trilogy, like the villains (acknowledging how memorable they were and how forgettable the newer villains were) and the story, but he preferred the characters more in the newer films (which honestly you have to admit was so much better in the newer films than the Rami films as you just saw in this review)
No just the first one
@@XanduIsBored Are you fucking serious? Even if those movies WEREN’T absolutely awful and a slap to the face of the character, these movies still did literally everything better. Even the MCU movies are better than the TASM movies.

This review is honestly the most painfully nitpicky and unfair reviews he ever done. He doesn’t explain his opinions well and also has no respect for the fan who love this movie.
You forgot the part where you check to see if it's a reupload.
This trilogy was my childhood.
@wolf bane I did indeed finish it, it's awful
Why was it PG 13? The movie had blood and violence.... Come on Doug
I can't believe he talked down on the scenes where Norman is talking to the Goblin mask and Green Goblin attacks Aunt May. These are some of my favorite parts of the film and these scenes really have much artistic value to them.
"Yes he's wearing that dumb Power Rangers mask, but he's scarier without it on." - Weird Al.

@@juanloja6909 When he dies
I disagree when you said these movies could’ve been PG. The Spider-Man Goblin fight was very brutal and so was the Doc Ock hospital scene in part 2.
he never said spiderman 2 didn't warrant a pg-13, he just said the "PG-13" value in the first one is extremely piss poor. I mean, unless you faint at the slightest of blood, then yeah. Even now it's pretty mundane and... not even that gruesome or even that needing of a pg-13. ESPECIALLY comparing it to nowadays what pg-13 is and how it was all handled before.
I'm 24 and the evil face Norman makes in the mirror STILL scares me. And a guy getting impaled is NOT kid-friendly.
You have to remember what millennials like Doug grew up with. Sex, violence and language were synonymous with content for young people back then.
To be fair, the scale to what it means to be PG Rated was very different back then.
Plus the scene where he beats up the robber
Plot twist: Pinky and the Brain are the "insane" rats that were created by Norman Osborn.
Also, this movie really captures a ton of emotion that the newer movies seem to lack. Uncle Ben and Peter's relationship is pretty strong even if we see them together for a few scenes. You really see how close they are and it makes it even more sad when Uncle Ben dies.
"Looks like he's one of those man-children who can't let go of his 'happy memories'."
No, you're thinking of PS1 Crash Bandicoot fans.
The fact that Peter is rude to Uncle Ben out of nowhere in that scene is unfortunately realistic as teenagers can be temperamental and ungrateful little shits at times.

me: SINCE WHEN???? i heard no such things.
yeah wtf is he talking about? The Raimi trilogy seems to be universally loved on the internet, everyone (rightfully) shits on the Marc Webb movies
Omar De Jesus I must have lived under a rock.. :/
I loved these films when I was kid. Sure, when talking about the first film, SOME aspects didn’t age too well. But, as an adult, I adore how fun and cheesy it can be. It didn’t take itself TOO seriously and I think that was the point.
18 years later, the original Spidey films always hold a special place to me (even the third film..)
I was thinking the exact same thing. I've not seen any attacks against these films apart from the usual digs at Spider-Man 3. There is still so much goodwill towards these films that Sony added the Raimi version of the spider-suit to the recent PS4 Spider-Man game as part of a patch update.
Omar De Jesus He's probably just making it up. The Raimi Spiderman movies are great.
I see it all the time whenever people talk about the Tom Holland films.

@@TheAzulmagia no spider man movie will be better than the PS4 game or spider verse don't even @ me
I still don’t understand why he’s dissing the effects. I didn’t grow up with this movie. I saw it years after it came out because the Green Goblin suit scared the crap out of me. So I don’t have any nostalgia goggles on when I say the effects aged wonderfully. For a film released in 2002, they still look wonderful.
Agreed. I think the effects are both good at the time and by today’s standards.
I thought the Spiderman Trilogy was great then, and I still think they’re great
I remember when Critic though TASM was so much better than the Raimi trilogy. The Amazing Spider Man films are either ostracized or simply forgotten about while the Raimi films are (at least the first two) are seen as nostalgic fun and all of them perfect meme material these days.
