    Going to be uploading A LOT over the next two months. I have one more special Spider-Man video coming in March and then I'm done talking about the web head, for now. Head over to Squarespace and build your own E.D.M Spidey Website, it's all N.B.D. Much love to all of you.

      Facts I honestly like the fact he doesn’t have to be stereotype nerd he can still be an outcast and be relatable to other people. In the second one I would say the antagonist rly is him the whole film despite all the villains it’s not that he can’t defeat them but he himself doesn’t find himself in his peak and most concentrated to be Spider-Man since his life as Peter has been so bad not knowing what to do with Gwen. And then in the end the fact despite doing like everything possible Gwen dies and he actually has to move on and for a while he doesn’t and gives up which so real. Then as a similar situation as this film he sees a little boy using his image to confront rhino to stop him fro, attacking the city and he feels he has to come and save him and leave his emotional baggage aside.

    Another underrated scene is when Garfield is on the rooftop looking towards Oscorp tower.
    When the crane operators turned their bridges across the street so Pete could swing easier.
    Just cinematography and music alone is great, plus showing that Spider-Man cannot do everything himself.

      @TrueSpider-Man 4 года назад +20

      @AN-DROID GAMER RATUL People are mad because it is very obvious that MCU Spidey depended too much on Stark to the point that he was dangerously near "Side-kick territory."
      And there's really no reason to hate on the TASM crane scene, because that's like saying Spider-Man shouldn't have been helped out by people in the train on Spider-Man 2. These two scenes are very similar and both show the city finding out that there is a hero that saves them, and they are also willing to support him.
      Now this is very different from Spider-Man being helped too much by Ironman. Because by having Spider-Man be saved by another superior figure, it only means that Spider-Man did something dumb or wrong.
      However if you have Spider-Man be saved or helped by a multitude of normal people that are not superheroes, that's a totally different meaning.
      *So of course fans have the right to agree with this scene and disagree with the MCU scenes. I'm not mad, but I just wanted to explain to give you a better idea of why things are the way they are.*

But I had to admit that there's a little bit of truth in the name. But people have different perspectives, I just wanted to show you the other side of the spectrum.

      I have an ultimate game-plan.
      1. Remove Spider-Man 3 from canon.
      2. Bring Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield back in Spider-Man: No Way Home. NWH will then serve as the third movie in all three Spider-Man trilogies. It is a sequel to Spider-Man 2, TASM 2, and Far From Home.
      3. Give Tobey Maguire a big sendoff in No Way Home.
      4. Then, you split ways. Tom Holland will be permanently integrated into the MCU as it’s Spider-Man, and Andrew Garfield returns to the Sony-Verse as the Spider-Man who will appear in their franchise as long as they see fit.
      I see this as an absolute win.

      Also a director's cut of TASM1 is something I've always really wanted, but I'm not sure how well a TASM2 would be. It could be great, it could flesh out many of the things the film needed to flesh out. Or it could just be a longer TASM2 which would be the worst situation to be in.

      @@RyanKaufman Well yeah, I'm not saying that the ideas that they had for the 3rd movie were actually good. I just think it's a shame for that series to not get a satisfying ending when there were redeemable aspects to it. Would I want a Spider-Man 4 over an Amazing Spider-Man 3? Absolutely - in a heart beat - since I think the Raimi series had much better movies and was a much better series overall. But I personally wouldn't mind getting at least a concluding movie to The Amazing Spider-Man series as well - especially if Sony actually stayed the hell out of the creative process.

I love Andrew Garfield, I love the action, I love the characters, I love a lot of things in this movie. So I thank you, for making a positive video about this movie, I feel there are so many videos thrashing these films to the point where it’s getting old. It’s fine to have an opinion and I do agree sometimes with a lot of the issues people have with these films, but I just feel like people should try something new and talk about what this film got right.

      The most appealing part was the lack of plot holes and ridiculous coincidences. The Spider-Man story bathes in them, but this movie does a great job of connecting everything(like a web). Gwen working at Oscorp and her father being police chief were unlikely, but the movie explains why Spider-Man knows the Lizard: Spider-Man got his powers from his father's research, and the Lizard's work succeeded because he worked with Spider-Man's father. Also, the Lizard fighting a SWAT team is exactly what should happen if supervillains existed, and it worked very well.

    Such a good scene, even better when you realize that being on the bridge is metaphorical for change, passing towards something else, crossing over your own flaws, selfishness and twisted vendettas instead of drowning yourself into them. Peter Parker becomes Spider-man when the way to Manhattan is open for him. His greatest challenge yet as a hero is on his way to Spider-man's home (Manhattan). Clearing such a challenge allows him passage to where he can be his hero self.

    Damn thanks man. I was too young to really understand this movie and just disliked it because it wasn't like the comic books I read and as a superhero fan and a well-versed moviegoer I have stayed away from watching it again. All I ever knew from these films was what everyone told me. Thank you for being able to show me a new perspective.

    The reason why I love your channel so much is because you YOU are a normal person. As weird as that sounds it humanizes you because all the movie and series reviewers focus so much on “proffessionalism” and it ruins the feel of the video. They sound like someone doing a job instead of someone who genuinely cares and loves a movie. Your review on Spiderman PS4 is the most genuine response to the game I have seen and I respect you so much for it. Please never change and always stay true to yourself because I really love how you make these videos

      The beauty of this is that even though Flash has an audience and the perfect opportunity to justify pounding Peter, he lowers his voice and keeps the moment between them private. He came to comfort Peter and even though he was met with sudden anger, Flash still tries to comfort him because he knows Peter needs someone in his corner for one day in his life.

For me, Superman has the same problems we do, but on a Paul Bunyan scale. If Superman walks the dog, he walks it around the asteroid belt because it can fly in space. When Superman’s relatives visit, they come from the 31st century and bring some hellish monster conqueror from the future. But it’s still a story about your relatives visiting.” -Grant Morrison

I really don't care for Spider-Man Homecoming, although I do like Tom Holland as Spider-Man/Peter Parker. Crazy Idea, I would like to see Andrew Garfield reprise his role for the Venom sequel. How? We got the Spiderverse film right after Venom, so audiences know that there are now different universes. During renegotiations, let the MCU do their thing with Spider-Man, and then Sony can do their version. Two different Spider-Men in two different universes. Hey, it could work!

    I really love The Amazing Spider-Man. I know people dislike it, but I love the first one. Andrew Garfield is incredibly underrated as Spider-Man, and he got done dirty by Sony. Garfield is my personal favourite live action Spider-Man, followed by Tobey and then Tom. I would’ve loved to see Garfield’s Spider-Man in a universe like the MCU. I feel like his Spider-Man would actually work better in that Universe.
    I feel bad for Mark Webb. I really liked his vision, and the darker, more grounded take on Spider-Man and the “Vigilante” aspect of the character, right down to the suit. I love the TASM suit. I love it’s darker tones and makeshift stuff like the sunglasses and tennis shoes. Like I said, I know people hate this movie and I understand why, but I love it.

    Everytime I think about the waste that is Avi and what he did to TASM, I grieve the glory that is tasm shouldve been. Watching your videos are my way of healing.

    I love your videos, not only are they entertaining and sometimes help you understand the film/show better, they are also massive help for writing good characters and story's and for that I honestly can't thank you enough.
