19:37 I LOVE that black guy on the bridge throwing stuff at Green Goblin. I love it when extras have one line and they give it their all. "YEAH I GOT SOMETHIN' FOR YOUR ASS! YOU MESS WITH SPIDEY YOU MESS WITH NEW YORK!"
Nostaliga Critic mentioned the "newspaper lady" I guess he didn't know her name was Betty Brant. In the comics, she was Peter's first love. But she was just a throwaway in the movie.
Here's some of my favorite lines from the movies: "Feel the hard cold shiver down your spine." "That's a cute outfit, did your husband give it to you?" "Sorry I'm late, work was murder." "I am French." And "The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout, down came the goblin to wash the spider out!"
While it isn't officially confirmed, I believe it. But I don't think that the studio was to blame for Spider-Man 3. I think Sam Riami should have left the franchise after number 2, because he originally didn't want to do another film.
Nostalgia Critic: But he’s also written some major stinkers like “War of the Worlds,” “Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” and “The Lost World.” Ben: So he’s responsible. *Me thinking he’s referring to Kingdom of the Crystal Skull* Yeah, him...and George Lucas.
Finally! Please react to more Nostalgia Critic! And not just editorials! As great as they are, we wanna see you react to these things too! I already felt so happy with your Commando review reaction, and now this? You guys are just making my week, aren't ya? XD You should react to his review of Jupiter Ascending, or one of his christmas specials! They're always funny!
I like how Spider-Man No Way Home acknowledges the complicated relationship with Mary-Jane and Peter. Peter knows they had issue and they needed to really work it out….
I always liked the version of Harry deciding to say fuck it and help Peter more in the Editors Cut of Spiderman 3. Its left unanswered whether or not he decides to completely change his mind on if Spiderman did or didn't kill his father but rather he looks at a broken picture of him, MJ, and Peter and through just facial acting you understand that he realizes the friendship he had with Peter is way more important than this feud.
Why was Doc Oc conducting this untested, extremely volatile fusion experiment in the middle of his New York apartment? He knew he was experimenting with extreme levels of energy, so much so that he described it as no less than a miniature sun. Why do this in the middle of his own apartment in a heavily-populated city instead of some testing facility out in the desert? Further more, why did he invite the press over to watch his very first test of it? Shouldn't he be testing and adjusting the experiment based and repeated testing to ensure it's success before he even thinks about bringing the media into it? What if the experiment didn't work (it didn't), what if he needed to calibrate it after the first test didn't work? Even if it didn't end as horrible as it did in the movie, and instead the machine just didn't work, he would still look like an idiot in front of the cameras.
emo Peter dancing reminded me of Corey Page's character in Dead Man On Campus when Mark-Paul Gosselaar catches him singing show tunes in the club bathroom after channeling Robert Smith on stage.
The actual way that Venom shows up in the first place, was during the Secret wars; part of Battle Planet was made of part of the planet Venom was exiled on. He hitched a ride back on Peter.
There was a fix for the story and Venom. They refer to the character as Eddie Brock Jr. and Conners had a sample of the symbiote. That would allow Eddie's dad to move in and become the proper Venom and allow for a future Carnage movie.
This video is clear evidence that not only does Doug doesn’t read or get Spider-Man but that he also doesn’t do research on the films he talks about. Sam Raimi is a massive fan of Spider-Man and while these movies made a few changes to streamline things, they are by far the most accurate and faithful film adaptation of the character and his world. A lot of Doug’s criticisms range from not understanding the context (Venom was forced into SM3 by Sonny, not Raimi) or by just not trying to gather what the movies are about (Emo Peter is meant to be cringy and hard to watch. He’s dorky Peter Parker with no inhibitions.) I love Doug as a comedian but as a critic, especially a critic of Comic adaptations, he’s very lacking and honestly doesn’t get what makes certain characters like spidey so compelling.
What pisses me off the most (for me) was Venom's mistreatment. I was not introduced to spider-man during the arc of the black costume (thank you 90's series) but it introduced me to an entire universe of heroes. I know Venom will be given better treatment in his solo movie.
You know, Venom was never meant to be in Spiderman 3. Sandman was always meant to be the only villain. But the studio basically strangled the director to squeeze Venom in, so he did put him in, and as a "f*ck you" to the studio, he made everything concerning Venom suck balls, while everything concerning Sandman was very cool, heartfelt, and deep.
Actually I think the best thing could have done for the 3rd movie was, keep Harry and his revenge but also keep sandman in there because we already got a Green Goblin in the first movie, keep the symbiote suit, remove the emo and stupid parts, throw in the dream sequence, and save Venom for the 4rth film.
Correction: In "The Return of The Incredible Hulk" The Hulk only teams up with Thor. Captain America isn't in that movie. Micha might have confused it with "The Trial of The Incredible Hulk" where The Hulk teams up with Daredevil. But again, there's no Captain America in that one, and also no Thor. While there was a made for TV Captain America movie, Lou Ferrigno's Incredible Hulk, Daredevil, and Thor weren't in it.
These days, I'm pretty ticked with how these movies treated Mary Jane. In the comics, she's freaking awesome! She's not just a damsel in distress, she's actually taken down a couple of villains ON HER OWN!!! Not to mention she was really fun and proved herself to be the perfect wife for Spidey. (I really hate One More Day). But in these movies, she gets kidnapped THREE MOVIES IN A ROW!!! A lot of her great qualities weren't used and her sole purpose was to be a cheesy love interest.
+Dragon Sword How can a human being with no enhanced abilities take down sand people, super strength having armor glider flying people, 4 extra robotic arm having people and alien beings with all the powers of Spider-Man? There's nothing wrong with being in distress. Being human there's not much else she's good for. She's fine. But Gwen was supposed to be kidnapped in SM 3, but Sam Raimi was told that Mary-Jane had to be in peril, so it was changed. That's why Gwen and her dad are at Harry's funeral at the end. Have a very great day! God bless you! God bless everyone!
+Dagenspear I didn't realize that little bit about the third movie. Interesting. I still like these movies. They were my first real look at the Spider-man mythos. Although the MJ of the comics has proven pretty resourceful. There was a time when she lured Kaine (back when he was a villain) into the sewers and used the water system in a way similar to what Spidey did to Sandman (except she only had to turn a wheel to do it). Here's a link to a scan from it: 41.media.tumblr.com/4240f081c4bd0f3676008a34ede35b4f/tumblr_ms44pxW7jB1qzgu2jo1_500.jpg So, it would've been nice to have a scene where we saw that resourcefulness from her. True, she didn't always just stand on the sidelines (she threw a brick at Venom), but it never seemed that effective other than to give Spidey an extra second. Although every second counts. They did incorporate some things about her character (abusive father, wanting to be an actress). But her personality just didn't feel like the real Mary Jane I've come to know from the comics. And that's a real shame because she was really interesting. Also, she's actually a decent fighter. Now, she's still a civilian, so of course it's not like she can take on Green Goblin in a fist-fight. But the damsel in distress thing would work better if she made it harder for the villains to catch her.
+Dagenspear I think I'd like to explain what really ticks me off. Mary Jane wasn't that interesting a character in these movies when she's awesome in the comics. I can get over that easy. But then the Amazing Spider-man movies made a huge mistake. They made Gwen Stacy more interesting... BY MAKING HER MORE LIKE COMIC BOOK MARY JANE!!! Knowing Spider-man's secret identity and being his confidant: She never knew his secret in the original comics. In fact, she loved Peter, but hated Spider-man. There are even scenes between her and Peter that are taken directly from scenes of him and MJ in the Ultimate comics: the scene on the bleachers, her patching up Peter's wounds. Even the actress they chose. I honestly think Emma Stone should not have been cast as Gwen because she was too good at the role of Spidey's love interest. We all knew this character was going to get killed off to make room for MJ. But when you have an actress with that good of chemistry with the hero, it's going to be really hard finding someone who can top that. She would've made an awesome Mary Jane. Heck, in Spider-man 3, she's a model.... LIKE MARY JANE WAS! And she had more of original MJ's personality! So basically, I'm mad that Mary Jane's been made to look like nothing more than a damsel in distress and Gwen Stacy looking awesome when in truth, it's the other way around.
Sandman is what made Spider-Man 3 a movie I'm willing to (up to a certain point) defend, I never saw Sandman outside of that movie, so I can't speak if it does the character justice, but I still really loved his character, and you can argue the movie needs to be able to do that without me knowing the character beforehand. And admittedly a guilty pleasure of mine is the fight of Venom and Sandman vs Spider-Man and Green Goblin (technically Jr, or Hobgoblin, whatever the official name is) I've also never been much of a Venom fan, I find the symbiotes interesting but Venom never interested me. All that being said I can't sit through Spider-Man 3 without LOTS of fast-forwarding...
9:10 There is a longer version in the Spider-Man 2.1 cut with the character. 9:39 The first Community actor to cameo in a Marvel film. Five years before Community came out though and the only one not directed by the Russo brothers. 10:15 Tobey Mcguire's rothers.
I love the music in these films. It’s essentially the same thing as the 1989 batman movie theme, it’s basically One of the most appropriate themes for Spider-Man. You literally can’t give it to any other hero.
I know the first movie had cheesy dialogue and an over the top villain (witch is why I like him so much) with a power rangers villain costume, but I don't think it should be called a bad movie, at least it wasn't boring with a bland (and boring) villain, unlikabe protagonist, and very lazy writing and directing, but that's just my opinion. P.s I like spider-man 3 but pretend it isn't canon with the other 2 and I heard they wanted to use Gwen Stacy in sm1 but replaced with m.j. for some reason. one more thing, green goblin's costume looks like it does because Willem Defoe wanted to do most of his own stunts so they made a more flexible costume.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that Venom was bonded to Mac Gargan (Scorpion) during other during the Dark Avengers run. He was drugged, though, Nate was right about that.
Here's one thing I don't get. How the heck does the black suit make such a difference with Sandman? Yeah, it boosts his powers, but what does that matter? When Spidey punched Sandman, the result should've been the same as the first time: his fist goes right through him. To be fair, they do make it an awesome fight scene. But Sandman should've been able to disperse and reassemble multiple times during the fight. This would've made more sense if he were using it against someone like Scorpion or Hobgoblin.
4:38 Funny story: I actually had no idea what 9/11 was when I first saw the Nostalgia Critic's video, so I pretty much had no context for what Doug was talking about here, or why the original trailer was inappropriate.
We *do* actually see Venom turn into a giant hulking creature at the end of the movie, but they literally nuke him ten seconds after Venom *finally* becomes the Venom we *should* have seen the whole movie.
"Lack of concentration." And lack of control. Sam Raimi didn't have as much creative control over Spider-Man 3 as he had in the other two. But, the biggest problem came from someone who was working on the movie with him; Avi Arid, the same guy who not only pushed for the Venom movie, but also was responsible for why the Venom movie was PG-13, as he said, "Venom should only be a PG-13 character". This guy is a huge Venom fan and kept pushing Raimi to have Venom in the movie because, and I quote, "fans love Venom." However, Raimi wasn't that big a fan of Venom and said that including him in the narrative he was going for (creating the Sinister Six) wouldn't match. But, Sony and Arid took away a majority of his creative control and shoe-horned in Venom
+Jayllourd Mars Gomez Amazing Spider Man 1 and 2 were bigger messes of films than Spiderman 3. I could not sit through them. I barely managed to finish the first, but the second left me infuriated that i chopped that dvd to a million pieces and put it in my grill where I cooked hotdogs over it's fiery corpse. Yes, I thought they were THAT bad.
Steven Ventris It does, but I in fact did just that. I really just didn't like that Sony tried to make Spiderman more serious, it just felt too similar to something I'd expect from Batman. Only Batman can make that idea work. Yes, I know the comics have dramatic moments too, but I never read the comics, so I'm not going by that logic. Plus, Andrew Garfield can be a good actor, but seeing him as Spiderman was just as silly as Matthew Broderick playing Inspector Gadget.
4:38 Funny story: I actually had no idea what 9/11 was when I first saw the Nostalgia Critic's video, so I pretty much had no context for what Doug was talking about here, or why the original trailer was inappropriate. 6:03 You're right - he could be South Korean, with the additional black on there.
Wow... I seriously have to worship our actors for dubbing that movie so well they turned it into one of greatest movies I've ever seen. I mean Spiderman 1... or... all of them, maybe except the Emo Peter.
If you want to know why Venom in 3rd movie, cause Sam Rami didnt like the charecter cause he lack Humanity. But then some bloke said hay how about that venom he sell those toys
Oh my god, this is SPIDERMAN. Spiderman's always been a comedic jokey character. The entire purpose he was created was to break the mold of the stereotypical stoic no nonsense statue people that superheroes were turning into.
Yeah, but Peter Parker is not. He's a nerd and not usually fun at all. Him acting like he did in the third movie wasn't fitting at all. Not to mention the dance. If anything, I would expect Spider-Man and a villain to somehow end up in a club with music plaything and a fight scene that looked like a dance. The whole thing with Peter was just cringe worthy and definitely something worth skipping. As for the Green Goblin, it was just hard to take him serious. Everything else was good when it came to goofing around really.
it was green goblin the comics that threw gwen off the bridge that spider-man never knew for sure if goblin killed her before throwing her or him saving her with his webs the force of the stop of the fall killed her.
Never thought Donald Davenport would get inspiration for Adam, Bree, and Chase from Spider Man! If anyone is a fan of Lab Rats in which Hal Sparks was in let me know.
My favourite version of the Venom Vision is the one from Spectacular Spiderman cartoon. In my opinion by FAR the best animated Spiderman show. It is really just disgusting that it cot cancelled then replaced by Ultimate. So disappointing.
They did okay with the Goblin, I think they did a much better job on Norman Osborne than they did with the Goblin. Strange design choice though, compared to Norman's design, fairly normal human, the Goblin mask makes the head a bit more triangular.
Also when the video mentioned the first movie and how at the end the green goblin was at the bridge with mj and it said it was actually Gwen in the comics. Ben said it was originally doc ock... Yeah no, get your facts right dude.
some of these make me question how many comics he's read, since he should remember the goblin was not mentally stable, and doc ocks arms had ai already
11:34 - 11:38 To those wondering if these hideous effects looked good back then, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers came out the exact same year. *THESE EFFECTS WERE AWFUL!*
I really liked the moment in *Spider-man 2* where Doc Ock says "You listen to me now!" to his robotic arms, and they literally cower and obey him.
The Smoking Skull it's pretty dope
It is a good scene.
19:37
I LOVE that black guy on the bridge throwing stuff at Green Goblin. I love it when extras have one line and they give it their all.
"YEAH I GOT SOMETHIN' FOR YOUR ASS! YOU MESS WITH SPIDEY YOU MESS WITH NEW YORK!"
you can definitely feel that energy in Spider-Man 2 when that one guy goes "Hey! Spider-Man stole that guy's pizza!"
i never pictured Micah to be the type of guy to have such an entrance,i was pleasantly surprised
+The Assassin Spy He makes a great gopher.
Nostaliga Critic mentioned the "newspaper lady"
I guess he didn't know her name was Betty Brant. In the comics, she was Peter's first love. But she was just a throwaway in the movie.
Wouldn’t say a throw away
He didn't read a lot of Spider-Man comics.
Did you guys ever saw the Spiderman vs. Amazing Spiderman fight that NC had with the fan girl? That one is interesting as well
Awesome sudden Micah appearance!
A wild Micah appears
Here's some of my favorite lines from the movies: "Feel the hard cold shiver down your spine."
"That's a cute outfit, did your husband give it to you?" "Sorry I'm late, work was murder." "I am French." And "The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout, down came the goblin to wash the spider out!"
Actually the sleep walking thing was done in the Spectacular Spiderman cartoon. It's how he beat the sinister six the second time.
Caden Braylen that was a fantastic show, which sadly was cancelled
The astronaut turned into a wearwolf in the captain America comics and was the main focus of a spiderman cartoon, so he was definitely miss used...
you guys should do Nostalgia Critic: spider man old vs. new
This was the first NC video I ever saw. I've been hooked ever since.
I heard that Sony were pushing Raimi to have Venom in the 3rd movie.
correct
Davon85J Well I'm sure Sony learnt their lesson.
Oh. Wait
While it isn't officially confirmed, I believe it. But I don't think that the studio was to blame for Spider-Man 3. I think Sam Riami should have left the franchise after number 2, because he originally didn't want to do another film.
Bastards!
2 was the best of the trilogy, but that's not really saying much.
You should watch the comparison that he does between the new and the old Spider-Man
Nostalgia Critic: But he’s also written some major stinkers like “War of the Worlds,” “Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” and “The Lost World.”
Ben: So he’s responsible.
*Me thinking he’s referring to Kingdom of the Crystal Skull*
Yeah, him...and George Lucas.
"He was everyone's favourite villain."
Someone has not heard of Carnage...
Well he is Spider-Man's greatest enemy ever after all (Next to Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus of course)

I'm hooked on these nostalgia critic reviews. It is some of the best sound editing so that you here both the review and reaction perfectly together
Red, white and blue. The colours of freedom, until they are flashing behind your car...
thesupersonicstig lmao
You have to see the original Green Goblin mask. The animatronics in the eyes were fucking terrifying.
ECL28E he was looking si amazing
Doug was right on Venom and Eddie: THAT alone could fill an entire movie!
Well I'm come from future and nope hardy venom movies didn't do what we wanted
@@Lopez03Eduardo. The first one was alright as a monstermovie, but the sequel was absolute horsepuke and ratvomit.
Yes, it could fill an entire movie…with Spider-Man
Without him, it’s just not the same.
Why was Doc Oc conducting this untested, extremely volatile fusion experiment in the middle of his New York apartment?

This!
+The wolf King Or ANY of his "Old vs New" videos.
NU121493255 true. I just thought It would be good to stick to the spiderman theme.
+The wolf King That video is great
yes
emo Peter dancing reminded me of Corey Page's character in Dead Man On Campus when Mark-Paul Gosselaar catches him singing show tunes in the club bathroom after channeling Robert Smith on stage.
In the 90's cartoon the venom symbiote got taken to earth by Jameson Junior.
7:45 That did happen in the spectacular Spiderman tv show but in the comics I believe he turns into some sort of moon werewolf
Spiderman 3 where an evil alien suit turns Peter Parker into an emo (and taught him to play piano)
The actual way that Venom shows up in the first place, was during the Secret wars; part of Battle Planet was made of part of the planet Venom was exiled on. He hitched a ride back on Peter.
Venom could come back from that explosion with the same host. Carnage survives an even bigger blast in the comics.
"maybe the new reboot will take a more serious road" *fucking nope! Hahaha*
There was a fix for the story and Venom. They refer to the character as Eddie Brock Jr. and Conners had a sample of the symbiote. That would allow Eddie's dad to move in and become the proper Venom and allow for a future Carnage movie.
This video is clear evidence that not only does Doug doesn’t read or get Spider-Man but that he also doesn’t do research on the films he talks about.

Correction: In "The Return of The Incredible Hulk" The Hulk only teams up with Thor. Captain America isn't in that movie. Micha might have confused it with "The Trial of The Incredible Hulk" where The Hulk teams up with Daredevil. But again, there's no Captain America in that one, and also no Thor. While there was a made for TV Captain America movie, Lou Ferrigno's Incredible Hulk, Daredevil, and Thor weren't in it.
you guys should react to Nostalgia Critic bat man vs Super man review
React to one of the musical Nostalgia Critic reviews like Les Mis or Moulin Rouge. that would be cool.
And now Venom is getting a movie, critic called it
Mac Gargan the Scorpion is wearing the Venom symbiote in Dark Avengers.

Gargan was Venom for Osborn's Dark Avengers.
*****
Exactly!
Oblivious I also remember him going a bit cannibalistic.
*****
Yeah, I think his establishing moment in Dark Avengers is that he eats a guard.
Here's one thing I don't get. How the heck does the black suit make such a difference with Sandman? Yeah, it boosts his powers, but what does that matter? When Spidey punched Sandman, the result should've been the same as the first time: his fist goes right through him. To be fair, they do make it an awesome fight scene. But Sandman should've been able to disperse and reassemble multiple times during the fight.
This would've made more sense if he were using it against someone like Scorpion or Hobgoblin.
i'm shocked when Goblin asked if he was in or out that NC didn't use a scene from Aladdin with the song are you in or out
4:38 Funny story: I actually had no idea what 9/11 was when I first saw the Nostalgia Critic's video, so I pretty much had no context for what Doug was talking about here, or why the original trailer was inappropriate.
i am from Latinoamérica (Chile) and the dubbing for the first spiderman movie it was a lot better then the original
SUPAIDAMAN! Fucking love it, it's so campy and horrible. It's like Spiderman if he was a Power Ranger, but Leopardon is badass...
Dr. Octopus dropped George Stacy and The Green Goblin dropped Gwen Stacy.
I'm rewatching this and funnily enough I get Spiderman Homecoming ad.
We *do* actually see Venom turn into a giant hulking creature at the end of the movie, but they literally nuke him ten seconds after Venom *finally* becomes the Venom we *should* have seen the whole movie.
"Lack of concentration." And lack of control. Sam Raimi didn't have as much creative control over Spider-Man 3 as he had in the other two. But, the biggest problem came from someone who was working on the movie with him; Avi Arid, the same guy who not only pushed for the Venom movie, but also was responsible for why the Venom movie was PG-13, as he said, "Venom should only be a PG-13 character". This guy is a huge Venom fan and kept pushing Raimi to have Venom in the movie because, and I quote, "fans love Venom." However, Raimi wasn't that big a fan of Venom and said that including him in the narrative he was going for (creating the Sinister Six) wouldn't match. But, Sony and Arid took away a majority of his creative control and shoe-horned in Venom
Watch the Old Vs New Spider-Man
+Jayllourd Mars Gomez Amazing Spider Man 1 and 2 were bigger messes of films than Spiderman 3. I could not sit through them. I barely managed to finish the first, but the second left me infuriated that i chopped that dvd to a million pieces and put it in my grill where I cooked hotdogs over it's fiery corpse. Yes, I thought they were THAT bad.
+House of Wolves Commentaries Bud, I wouldn't even do that to The Last Airbender movie. That seems a bit exaggerated. XD
Steven Ventris It does, but I in fact did just that. I really just didn't like that Sony tried to make Spiderman more serious, it just felt too similar to something I'd expect from Batman. Only Batman can make that idea work. Yes, I know the comics have dramatic moments too, but I never read the comics, so I'm not going by that logic. Plus, Andrew Garfield can be a good actor, but seeing him as Spiderman was just as silly as Matthew Broderick playing Inspector Gadget.
My favorite villain is Carnage. Venom is a close second though.
4:38 Funny story: I actually had no idea what 9/11 was when I first saw the Nostalgia Critic's video, so I pretty much had no context for what Doug was talking about here, or why the original trailer was inappropriate.
6:03 You're right - he could be South Korean, with the additional black on there.
Wow... I seriously have to worship our actors for dubbing that movie so well they turned it into one of greatest movies I've ever seen. I mean Spiderman 1... or... all of them, maybe except the Emo Peter.
9:25 Is THAT why he got a new Spider-Man suit in No Way Home? Assuming you've seen it, yet.
37:05 Mac Gargan was Venom at time of the Dark Avengers, not Eddie Brock.
If you want to know why Venom in 3rd movie, cause Sam Rami didnt like the charecter cause he lack Humanity.
But then some bloke said hay how about that venom he sell those toys
RIP Randy Savage AKA Macho Man.
GTA V World Champ OOOOHHH YEAH!!
Huzzah! Micah is the new Spider-Man! I am pleased with this. :)
Alright... I've run outta patience... UNDERROOS!
HOLY SHIT! IT JUST HIT ME! JOE MANGANIELLO, WHO PLAYED FLASH THOMPSON, SHOULD'VE PLAYED EDDIE BROCK!
Mauricio Vasquez the one that broke up with MJ in Spider-Man 1?
AVATAR STICKMAN yes
Mauricio Vasquez yeah he could have been.
As much as it is stupid I love Willam Defoe as the green goblin
Also the chair with the Green Goblin mask was a toy, I swear it was.
Oh my god, this is SPIDERMAN. Spiderman's always been a comedic jokey character. The entire purpose he was created was to break the mold of the stereotypical stoic no nonsense statue people that superheroes were turning into.
Yeah, but Peter Parker is not. He's a nerd and not usually fun at all. Him acting like he did in the third movie wasn't fitting at all. Not to mention the dance. If anything, I would expect Spider-Man and a villain to somehow end up in a club with music plaything and a fight scene that looked like a dance. The whole thing with Peter was just cringe worthy and definitely something worth skipping.
As for the Green Goblin, it was just hard to take him serious. Everything else was good when it came to goofing around really.
+FTS Vectors Yeah, the dance scene was a bit too corny even for Spider Man standards.
So does that mean... Sandman was the best villain in the 3 movies?
it was green goblin the comics that threw gwen off the bridge that spider-man never knew for sure if goblin killed her before throwing her or him saving her with his webs the force of the stop of the fall killed her.
Never thought Donald Davenport would get inspiration for Adam, Bree, and Chase from Spider Man! If anyone is a fan of Lab Rats in which Hal Sparks was in let me know.
My favourite version of the Venom Vision is the one from Spectacular Spiderman cartoon. In my opinion by FAR the best animated Spiderman show. It is really just disgusting that it cot cancelled then replaced by Ultimate. So disappointing.
Luke sol Yeah, not denying that. They did a pretty good job with Black Cat though.
They did okay with the Goblin, I think they did a much better job on Norman Osborne than they did with the Goblin. Strange design choice though, compared to Norman's design, fairly normal human, the Goblin mask makes the head a bit more triangular.
I will always standby my view of Tobey Maguire=best Peter Parker, Andrew Garfield=best Spider-man.
Tom Holland: Wrecks them both, big time...
Haven't seen him yet, but Surprisingly not too hard to do. Give Tom a cookie for me.
Also when the video mentioned the first movie and how at the end the green goblin was at the bridge with mj and it said it was actually Gwen in the comics. Ben said it was originally doc ock... Yeah no, get your facts right dude.
I'm from the UK, I've already seen it. However... I will not spoil it.
some of these make me question how many comics he's read, since he should remember the goblin was not mentally stable, and doc ocks arms had ai already
Please do the NC's review of the Mad Max franchise!
I liked all the spiderman movies just some moments were wierd/silly but it's not like they could just go all DC on them to make all "dark".
The guy in the elevator is from Lab Rats on Disney XD
Well the arms are supposed to represent Ock’s Id and primal anger taking over. But yeah from a practical standpoint it’s a weird decision.
any chance of reacting to Nostalgia Critic's Spiderman old vs new?
3:10 Janine, sorry about the “bugs eyes” thing. I’ll be in my office.
Originaly venom wasn't part of spiderman 3 but Sam Raimi was forced to put him in it
0:12 A Wild Micha Has Appeared
Do: George RR Martin vs. J RR Tolkien (ERB) Just.... DO IT!
Joel McHale looks younger in Community than in Spiderman 2
It's the hair.
11:34 - 11:38 To those wondering if these hideous effects looked good back then, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers came out the exact same year. *THESE EFFECTS WERE AWFUL!*
please react to top eleven avatar episodes.or avatar the last airbender.
