- It's the first (and second to last?) Marc Webb Spider-Man movie! It's gotten quite the backlash in the past few years but Nostalgia Critic is wondering if it's worth all the anger. Let's take a look at The Amazing Spider-Man.

I knew I wasn't the only one that liked The Amazing Spider-Man
You should review Plan 9 from outer space... thats a nostalgic cash grab
"A Facinating Movie" is not something I've heard Amazing Spiderman be described as before. I mean I like it just fine but I was genuinely surprised by that statement.
Critic, I’m glad you like this film
“Why does it feel weird seeing spiderman acting like a... spiderman”
At least it’s not as bad as Halle Berry’s Catwoman acting like a... Catwoman
You had to remind me about catwoman
There was no Catwoman movie starring Halle Berry.
@@somerandolad I wish it were true, but it's real
I feel like he missed a joke there
It's "Spider-Man", not "Spiderman". Respect the hyphen!
Honestly the Lizard here looks more like Killer Croc than the Killer Croc in Suicide Squad.

“That’s like Clark Kent taking his Superman outfit to be dry cleaned” ironic since Peter literally took his suit to get dry cleaned in Spider-Man 2
Aye, he used a public laundromat but he was discreet about it so nobody would notice him pulling the suit out of the washer.
Fair point
And if we are honest, Peter does not have much money to buy another camera.
it makes sense to tag things that are his property.
Also, it's New York... Especially with Spidey popular there, it wouldn't be off that someone decided to have a cosplay set up
Can I just say I fucking love your username and profile picture?
Andrew Garfield was the Timothy Dalton of Spider-Men. Complex, charismatic, and completely underappreciated in his time. And just like Dalton, I wish Andrew had gotten a third shot.
Kind of looks like him too.
Well, there IS No Way Home. That could be his TECHNICAL third shot.
I think he would’ve if Sony hadn’t been so greedy and tried to go all “Dark Universe” and poorly set up future films rather than focus on one right in front of them. While I’ll always be biased towards Tobey Maguire being “MY one and only Spider-Man”, Garfield has grown on me and I can’t wait to see him in NWH
You’re in luck!😃😃
I don’t, the Amazing Spider-Man movies were crap. So glad they never made a 3rd one
How are teenage science geeks such perfect seamstresses when it comes to making their highly cinematic perfectly fitting costumes?
I wouldn’t say perfect; the suit in this movie is a bit of a proto Spider-Man suit similarly to how the Flash suit in ZSJL was more of a proto Flash suit
Well, the latest Spider-Man isn't. He started off in a onesie with crappy goggles. Nah, it was a billionaire who provided him with a much better suit.
Their ancestors where tailors in the old country I guess🤷😂
I just assumed they regularly cosplay

@@LoverOfBellies No, from the start Critic said he was looking only at the Sam Raimi and Mark Webb versions. Though fingers crossed he does continue to do the rest next year. 🤞

"First of, he looks 29. That might be because he's 29". I knew this review would be brilliant but didn't expect to find out it so soon
Even though Maguire was 27 when the first movie came out, he could honestly pass for being a teenager.
@@owendudley5218 Maguire also graduated halfway through the first movie.
Owen Dudley hell no, not today at least. I’m 19 and haven’t met anyone my age that looks nearly as old as Tobey did in the trilogy.
@@owendudley5218 Funny, i don't think Garfield looks 29, at a max i'd say 22 but actually somewhere around 17-19. Toby however looked way closer to 30 imo, something about his face seems grown up even if his character doesn't act like it.
@@katiem2347 Andrew is a senior in this film so I mean I don't see the problem
Can someone explain why people hate the suit? His suit is awesome. It's sleek, makes him look aerodynamic, the colors look great and the eyes make sense as to work with his vision.
It also looks like something a teenager would create. I love that the bottom of his shoes came from tennis sneakers, the patterns were printed on, and the lenses came from sunglasses. It's probably my favorite redesign for the character. And it makes me wished TASM2 suit still had bits and elements of the first one's suit like the logo or colors.
Not to mention, we actually see how he created it rather than just “this is what I want my suit to look like, and here it is!”
I always wondered that, too. The closest I've heard to a reason why it sucks is that it "looks like deflated basketball". Okay... and?
It's fine if people say they just don't like the way it looks, but they don't; they talk like this suit is objectively garbage and only crazy people like it
"What bully would pick on him?"
You'd be amazed at all the petty reasons people can come up with to bully someone.
Truth. Though I never really understood how bullying could be a sustained thing. If someone does it to you, just
R u I n T h e I r L I f e b y A n y M e a n s XD
Lying, black mail, framing them for having a knife in their locker. You don’t need to kick their ass (though do just do that if you can) Get creative. Destroy your enemy. Not that hard. Nobody in their school years is really prepared for having another human truly trying to ruin their life. Just turn the tables.
Argh. But I know it’s a mental state thing. Some people don’t have it in them. Always pissed me off though. People who go around messing with people who’ve done nothing to them makes me see red every time.
@@ZhongliArchonofSwag That's why bullying victims are bullying victims. They often lack the means to retaliate against their aggressors.

Nostalgia Critic Lizard is the most cursed thing I've seen all day.
It's still more realistic XD
@Alec L Other way around. The original dev team in Japan referred to the character as Eggman, and the English localizers changed it to Robotnik for the English release without consulting the devs. Sega of Japan and Sega of America were basically fighting each-other at the time, even to the point where the English team got their version released first.
Giorgi Mamalashvili he looks like a predator that hunts the seamen from seaman.
Yeah its if the geico gecko was possessed by Voldemort.
I wouldn’t say Homecoming stole that idea
Gwen and Captain Stacey have always been related in the comics, while the twist in Homecoming is completely original and legitimately surprising
@Kryptoskillet Wait a minute, wife of Harry Osborne?
@@Marvelfanatic3658 Yeah they even had a son.
I didn’t care for Homecoming. But I’d rather watch it than either 1 of the Amazing Spider-Man movies
I will always remember Uncle Ben's words in this film as "not choice, responsibility".
In defense of this movie, the "Responsibility" line in this film was actually taken directly from the Ultimate Comics. It wasn't just the screenwriter trying to be different.
I feel like they used a lot of the Ultimate Spiderman as reference or inspiration for these two movies.
Also the spiders being made by Oscorp
Brandon Spain I wish we got the full goblin transformation with the hell fire along with it. That would be cool
Even the first instance of the "With great power” line wasn’t from Uncle Ben, it was from a narrator panel on one of the early comic issues. Not to mention, the Raimi and Webb films over-inflate Uncle Ben’s importance. He died from failing to stop his killer and that’s it. It’s like if Superman kept quoting the Kent’s or the El family or Tony Stark referred to his parents. It will be ridiculous.
EDIT: Checked that Peter getting his uncle killed as his driving point is indeed from the comics.
And in offense of this movie, if you're going to take from Ultimate comics, GO ULTIMATE. Not play it safe, not middle of the road, not tepid...the Ultimate comics were the best sellers because it didn't hold back....unlike this film.

This film has a special place in my heart, not so much because it was great but because it was one of the last movies I saw with my Uncle Steve who passed away two summers ago. I distinctly remember a few hilarious moments of his commentary. When the car goes over the bridge and it's hanging on by a thread my Uncle turned to me and said "There's what happened the first time your mother tried to drive." And during one of the scenes where the Lizard is starting to turn, he leaned over and in a voice I wish I could replicate he quipped, "Pay no attention to the Lizard skin on my neck."

I wish doug had taken a minute to talk about the web scene in the sewers.
That whole concept is really interesting, and shows a creative side to this Spiderman iteration, as hes actually "Doing whatever a spider can."
Reminds me most of the Spiderman I grew up with in the animated series. He wasn't just a badass, it became a trope that he'd have to modify his gear or use his intelligence to win the day.
Arkon Plays Games except it was literally taken from the comics, so it’s literally not creative. It is a great scene though.
That's because he is to busy being a contrarian to try pulling actual good things. Despite hating the Rami films he suddenly likes them, despite everyone hating this film he doesn't.
@@vladzeppes34 I don't even know where to start with your statement, it's so wrong.
@@Ryan-hv3kn calm your tits, they're just movies. Maybe if he didn't like them, he didn't like them. I didn't like Frozen, and I have a good reason, you gonna call me contrarian? (Don't answer, I don't care.)

There were like 2 that turned into lizard people if I remember correctly.
"As far as I know, transitioning from revenge to crime fighting is not part of the Spider-Man origin story..."
What....That’s...literally a defining aspect of his origin.
How did he think he found out he was responsible for Ben’s death?
True, except it was done badly in this version. He never comes face to face with Ben's killer and makes that crucial choice to capture him, realizing his mistake. He just kind of forgets about it and moves on to the next thing.
Actually, in the first comic, he didn't find out it was the same guy until the last few panels. He was just going after the killer for a moment and when he took off the mask, he realized it was the same guy and embraced the role of Spiderman as the story closed.
@@anthonypiti1767 that's what makes this version more meaning full. He never comes face to face with the killer because he doesn't care anymore. The talk with captain Stacy at dinner made Peter realize that he's not a hero, he's a vengeful creep. Once he saved that kid, he realized what his purpose was, to stop the next uncle Ben situation from happening to anyone else. He can't change the past but he can change the future. That is Spider-Man
16:40 fun fact, in the Danish version of "Itsy Bitsy Spider" the spider is actually named Peter. We call him "Lille Peter Edderkop" which means "Little Peter Spider"

@@paradoxacres1063 Seriously, one of the only comic-book movie relationships where I was genuinely interested in it as an actual part of the movie.
I remember the movie tie-in games more than I remember this movie and its sequel. They weren't Spider-Man for the PS4 by any stretch but they were better than they had any right to be.
@Donald Smith Agreed. This movie's just pandering to the Raimi haters..so nothing about it is actually good, lol
I loved that Simpsons reference! it wasn't just the "dou'h" Bart did the exact thing with his speaker that he left down in that well.
Ah you mean the Radio Bart episode from season 3 with special guest star Sting.
No offense to the die hard fans of the Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy, this is my favourite Spider-Man film.
Oh don't worry,
I also like this movie as well.
Atleast it wasn't as disappointing as TASM2.
this one was underrated.
(P.S. and yes,i also love The Spider-Man Trilogy and the MCU.)

Hey, the MRAs are hilarious!
You failed to mention the way Peter found Connors with the webs. He did it like an actual spider
Yeah that was pretty cool.
Ikr it was pretty "amazing" lol
Honestly glad they added that feature into the game
I actually loved the Crane Operator scene; seeing as the crane operator who got the ball rolling is the father of the boy Spider-Man initially saved on the bridge during his first public reveal. I appreciated that the dad wasn't a one-off extra, and that Spider-Man seemed to get a more natural win over New York. The music was trumpet-y enough without being over the top and the NY/American pride message was delivered successfully without distracting from the point of the scene being: Get Spider-Man to the final fight & save the day.
I agree this is a decent movie. But it's also totally forgettable. The only memorable scene for me was the Stan Lee cameo
I was like, I remember more, there was that scene with the lizard and spider man fighting in a library and... thats the stan lee cameo.
69th
One of the greatest Stan Lee cameos ever, quite honestly perfection.
I've seen this movie twice and honestly can't remember any scene in this movie. The last trilogy had its flaws but were still pretty good. I honestly cant even tell you who the villain was in this movie
Same
No matter your thoughts on this movie, I think everyone can agree: The store Clerk refusing to let Parker have his chocolate milk because he was two cents short is an asshole.
Unconfirmed reports suggest the uncle Ben killer was going to be revealed as clint kassidy aka Carnage aka venom on psychotic steroids
But the franchise was cancelled for avengers before it went that far
He shouldn't have went to the store if all he had was a few bucks
Yeah, it's just two cents, it's not like peter can't pay it back later or if he was a couple of dollars short
If you think about, he's the reason Uncle Ben dies
Yeah, take a penny leave a penny is a courtesy. I got it from another comment from Cosmonaut's Amazing Spider-Man video. There shouldn't be a rule you have to spend a lot of money to take pennies.

I actually like the change to "with great power comes great responsibility". In a world of superheroes like the comics that line doesn't feel out of place, but as far as we've seen in this world, Spider-man is the only hero we know about. Uncle Ben's line in this movie feels more appropriate for the setting. In the Raimi movies it felt awkward and really clunkily forced in, even when I was younger I thought it felt really out of place.
You know how life can have moments that just line up too good? I’m watching this near the living room, and my mother danced to the tune of a jeans commercial, and I thought, wtf, then suddenly, 10:29, WOT.

@brandon roberts So Gwen Stacy's death doesn't count as a thing happening? One frustrating thing about the ending of Spider-Man 3 is that Peter & MJ are back exactly the way they were. Both movies are just awful.
@brandon roberts The only thing that mattered in Spidey 3 was Harry's death.
To a point, but I think something boring and safe can also garner a lot of rage.
This was during the beginning of the MCU, why be safe when Marvel is letting its audience feel like super heroes?
I actually enjoyed the movie and don’t care what others would think of me for enjoying this movie
no one is ttopping you. i , like you , have loved this movies for a long time so much so i have the dvd
I like it too. There are some problems obviously. But it's good to me.
Yes agree
So here’s two fun facts about Andrew Garfield, if any of you guys are Doctor Who fans, you’ll recognise him from series 3 of Doctor Who “Evolution of the Daley’s” and the second episode, and he has dual citizenship of US and UK making him the second SpiderMan who’s British(well considered I guess),Tom Holland is also British. I mean I don’t know about the voice actors for any cartoons, but for the live action ones I mean
Before Spiderverse, this was my favorite film. I loved Garfield as Parker.
That thumbnail is honestly the single most terrifying thing I ever seen in life
😂
Peter's keyboard must be super heavy, or bolted down to his desk, to be able to yank off the key caps like that 🤔
I was thinking that too
😂 Love this, how odd was it that I didn’t notice it before 🤣
lol yeah, thought the same. tho tbf if you pulled up fast enough it would be possible i believe maybe. it be a absolut insane velocity needed, but at that point there's air reistenst at play besides other things.
I mean anything in theory can be immovable if your speed is high enough, but then the vacuum left behind would pull the keyboard up regardless, so yeah no.
maybe he has one finger over a key while raise another finger, so its kinda possible
@@pumas2342 I thought of that before posting my comment, and that theory arc died for me when you consider that there has to be at least one key pulled without another finger pressing down when you move your hands away from the keyboard ;D It's definitely a super heavy board or glued down to the desk for that to happen in reality :D
I really loved those two movies. For me Andrew was the best spiderman on the big screen. Like, he is funny but akward sometimes, but always tries to keep a smile on his face no matter what is at stake. I don't even have to say he's the best Spiderman right? Funny, makes joke of his enemies, etc. And his relationship with Gwen is just adorable. I can't stand to see the relation between Tobey and MJ in the first movies... it's all the same whereas with the amazing spiderman there's so much more chemic between them, Gwen is not a princess that needs to be saved; Peter and Gwen both work together! Anyway. Can't find issues on those movies that people criticize so much.
I will defend even Elektro in the second movie. People prayezed the Joker for his depth and character. I know, I know. I am not trying to say Elektro was a better and written character, but at end of the day, they are pretty much the same character: both live with their problematic moms; they don't know hot to fit in society or how to interact and they both got mad at the world for setting them apart and want to make them suffer. So I don't see Elektro as a motiveless character. Lizard is pretty much stable as a villain and Harry had his motives to do what he did... He was lonely and lost, he just wanted a friend a somebody to save him...
It's still 2020 and I hope that someday we're gonna get something with Andrew's spiderman. Be it a spider-verse or a appereance on a Venom movie, whatever. I just want to know what happened to him and how he dealt with his loss and everything.
Just one more thing. I don't know why people criticize so much the fact that the TASM franchise tried to work on Peter's parents. I mean. I've always wondered why they left him. Now we kinda know... and I am okay with what we got.
I just want to say that these are really underrated movies that should have a little bit more of attention...
Aight, hot take;
Andrew Garfield Spider-Man > Tom Holland Spider-Man
With you bro
I agree. Garfield's Spider-Man didn't have a rich dad make his suit for him. He made his own tech and became his own hero. Plus, he's the only SM who actually quips like Spider-Man.
Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man: A talkative quipster.
Tobey Mcguire's Spider-Man: Quips during the few instances he actually talks.
Tom Holland: Not a quipster just really talkative.
@Kryptoskillet I'm speaking the truth, dude. Not my fault you can't handle it.
@@superstarultra28 the only tech that Garfield made was the web shooters.. which Spider-Tom made in homecoming.. also just because he didn’t make the suit doesn’t mean he “isn’t Spider-Man” that’s just stupid, Peter making his own costume is kinda unrealistic.
This wasn't that bad. It was a little overcomplicated and a touch confusing, but the next movie is absolutely awful
^^ This comment right here. I actually like this movie. Unlike Spider-Man 3, they treated Gwen Stacy and her father with more respect.
Same, it has good stuff in it and good character work mostly, but the entire mystery around peter's parents was pretty pointless and how they actively tried to avoid repeating the other films but still had to rephrase some stuff is pretty silly and forced and takes you out of it.
@@BigGator5 Too bad they didn't treat Aunt May, Curt Connors, Uncle Ben or even Peter Parker (who felt more like Marty McFly than anything) with the same respect. They spent way too much effort in making a better romance sub-plot than anything else.
At least the costume in the sequel is much better than 1st Amazing Spider-Man
nah, asm2 is still alright, better than any raimi film
"You did that on purpose, Flash!"
For some damn reason I think this is Mary Jane
Would make sense
@@reshonjohnson4017
At least someone agrees with me. Even when I first watched this movie, I always thought that she was Mary Jane. Even though her name was not disclosed.
Hunter Vallery Mary Jane was actually cast in the second film, they even shot stuff with her but we never saw it
@@alexman378 how did you find that out
reshon johnson It’s public info, it was made so before the movie was released. Shailene Woodley was cast, there’s pictures of her and Garfield on set, they were probably setting her up for the third one. I think her filmography actually lists the second film as well, though in deleted scenes. I like her as an actress, but I think it’s for the best it didn’t happen, I really can’t see her surpassing Stone’s Gwen.

Yassssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yaaaaaaasssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!
That show wasn't given much love.
Here in south asia's cartoon network, they always used to show the episodes without any order. It was very infuriating.
Honestly, yeah, it's a good movie...but that being said, I completely forgot everything about it except that it's the one with Gwen Stacy and the Lizard.
I remember almost everything from the Toby Maguire universe though.
Its not a good movie
@@burritobrosvideos8060 It's subjective, but I say it's a good movie because it's well put together on a technical level.
@@Dmobley9901 being technical doesn't make a movie good. You need to have a good plot, acting, and script. Its an average movie at best
@@Dmobley9901 sure, its subjective. If you watch yms on the amazing spider man movie, he makes a good argument. Id go through some of them but, I don't really care. Who cares if a movie is technical, if you say every technical movie is good you're going to get a bunch of average technical movies
@@burritobrosvideos8060 I'm being intentionally impartial, the Amazing Spider-Man movies were always a bit weird to me, like they were trying too hard to be their own thing...which is weird because I'm typically annoyed by how little people deviant from the "normal" Spider-man story.
This was...something that I think needed to be made at the time in order to act as a buffer and make mistakes that others could learn from.
I liked it at the time, but in hindsight it actually seems below average to me, since it's got such a faded style to it, it's almost like it's trying to stand out by not standing out at all. It feels like it had a lot of the fun sucked out of it, and in an attempt to avoid being campy, it lost a lot of the nuance of the comics.
My opinions can differ by what day it is and what mood I'm in, but my "objective" view of it is that it's a necessary phase to lead to new growth. For every rise, there's a crash, and for every crash, there's a return, these two movies served as a short return after Rami's 3rd movie was below average, so an average movie was an "improvement" that needed to happen, then some god awful needed to happen before something amazing, and that's how we ended up with this movie's sequel.
It's a very abstract pattern that I've noticed with the media of long-living characters like those from comics.
But anyways, none of that really matters, you seem to care more than I do to reply to a dead comment. :/

I thought Rhys Ifans was pretty good as the lizard I mean he’s not Alfred Molina as doc ock or Michael Keaton as the vulture but I still thought he gave a great performance even though they should’ve included that deleted scene with billy Connors thus giving him an actual motivation for having his arm
i am sad billy connors if for all intents and purposes adapted out.
alfred molina was wasted potential, couldve been an amazing doc ock if the writer knew a damn thing about doc ock
Majin Boi no Alfred Molina was awesome as doc ock the lizard was wasted potential because by the end of the movie he comes off as a 60’s spiderman villain planning to take over the world but at the beginning he’s a good man
@@SJ_RANKS except that's what the lizard has done numerous times in comics, attempt to turn the entire world into lizards
@BJ Br0wn doc ock isnt some brain dead sperg controlled by his tentacles and hell-bent on killing himself and everyone else with his sun machine
"pretty hot reveal"... Spins. "Do me" hahahahaha!
I swear that was the face she made😂💦💦💦

This is why Flash is one of my fav bully type characters, moments like this where he sympathizes with Peter, and when he’s Agent Venom (and by this time, him and Peter have made up) I might use this idea of him sympathizing with Peter in a stop motion movie someday🤔
Honestly, I love Uncle Ben’s speech about responsibility in TASM. It isn’t as succinct as it’s comic inspiration, but it really gets what Ben is trying to drill into Peter. If you can help, it is your responsibility to help. Add to that Martin Sheen’s exasperated delivery, and for whatever reason it just hits me the right way.
Finally, a place where I can say that I unironically like The Amazing Spider Man
Me too, the web swinging is the best out of all the Spider-man movies
Was my second favorite when it came out, after Rami's Spider-Man 2. Though, now with Spider-Verse and the MCU movies, it's at 5, after Homecoming, Far From Home, Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Verse...
Internet here to say *WRONG* !
Missed it in theaters, because I thought 5 years still wasn't long enough to scrub my mind of 3, but I watched it on HBO or something in 2013, and I thought it was good.
@@louisduarte8763 I saw it in theaters and I loved it, can't remember anything else tho.
Can I say, I really love when they did the first person swinging in TASM, gave you that adrenaline like your swinging with him, wish they would bring that back, and it looks cool as hell, maybe it's just me, lol
Not just you bro I strongly agree! That was one of those things where the format of seeing something in the movie theater is the only way to experience it and for good reason.
@Black Ninja I think I read somewhere that they brought back the same people who worked on the Webb swinging secuences to enhance Far From Home's ones.
As much people don’t like the second one, you can’t disagree that TASM2 had amazing swinging scenes too !
"Tell Emilio... I still know he exists!" LOL!
I love the "poor Peter Parker" memes/jokes 😂😂
This film was absolutely fine, and I enjoyed this take on Spider-Man. The sequel is what ruined EVERYTHING. Now, when you think of The Amazing Spider-Man, all you think about is Jamie Foxx. Ughhh...
Probably cause the one thing that the Sequel did right was Electro ( Kinda )
Agreed
White Wolf dude
It sucks because electro and goblin in that film both had potential but the writing was quite dumb.
White Wolf virgin
"I think Garfield is a great Spiderman."
- Nostalgia Critic 2020
Edit: For those of you ideots that didn't get the joke, I am referring to Garfield the cat and how funny it would be if NC thought he would be a good Spiderman.
Cats make GREAT spiders.
I know right? A guy that invents stuff, makes jokes and actively goes looking for the supervillain he plans to stop? Sounds nothing like the web-head.
Internet says: RIP Nostalgia Critic 2020.
('cause we Tweeted ya to death!)
would spiderman make a good pizza, though....
Garfield is known for being the worst Spider-Man
I really like this one. Probably my favorite behind Into the Spider-Verse.
It should've ended with Peter 100% breaking up with Gwen in keeping to the promise with her father.
8:43. Insert clip of Mr. Miyagi saying "Beginners luck."
Toby Maguire: 60s Spider-man
Andrew Garfield: 90s Spider-man
Tom Holland: Disney Channel Spider-man
Not bad for me I compared them to Star Wars the original are basically like the 70s The Amazing Spider-Man movies are the prequels and the Mcu spiderman movies are the Star Wars sequel trilogy.
@@dcmarvelcomicfans9458 Nah man, the MCU Spider-Man movies are actually good and shouldn't be compared to the complete dumpsterfire that is the the Star Wars sequels.
I couldn't agree more with this. I know unpopular opinion but I love MCU Spiderman in the group movies but his own, no. It seems like a Disney film more than a Spiderman film. All the characters have changed. I miss the connection to something in the comics. Nothing wrong with liking the MCU Spiderman but as soon as another franchise comes out that is live action I think people would forget about him.
@@jesuschild07able I personally think Tom Holland is the best live-action Spider-Man we've had out of all of them. And there's plenty of connections to the comics, but MCU Spidey takes a lot more from Ultimate, than from the original universe.
Maguire - 616
Garfield - Ultimate
Holland - White Miles Morales
lol
The “NARF” line broke me!!!😂😂😂
3:44 For whatever reason the way NC says "BLINDFOLDED" gets me every time...
Also yes, the Lizard needed a snout BADLY!
I think I laughed a little too hard at the “Property of Bart Simpson” joke for Peter Parker, but whenever someone quotes The Simpsons, it just cracks me up
I loved that Gwen wasn’t just a screaming Damsel in Distress. That’s the one thing I couldn’t stand about Mary Jane in the Raimi films
Geo Hernandez FACTS 🙌🏾💯. By the time the third movie came out and I heard Mary Jane scream I was like, “IGHT Bitch. That’s enough screaming. This is the third movie and it’s getting old.” Lol 💯
Well yeah cuz that’s her character. A brainy student who could match Peter on an intellectual level. People are constantly bitching about Mary Jane being a damsel in distress in the Raimi films, when they forget that Mary was always that way. She’s a model in the comics for crying out loud. WTF do you want her to do?
@@AlexTheOilersFan she was a model but she still had a badass side to her. Raimi's Mary Jane was just... meh.
@@AlexTheOilersFan bro mary jane in the comics was the opposite of a damsel in distress
@@AlexTheOilersFan lmao, funny that you mention that ... in the comics gwen was the mean girl. Mary Jane was the fuxking badass. That is partly why they killed gwen stacy
THis one had my fav Stan Lee Cameo as well.
Tobey Maguire was 27 when Spider-Man came out in 2002.
"That lizard should have a snout" actually looks a lot, in the face at least, like the character from his 60s appearance
yeah but he looked crappy in the 60s, there's a good reason that they changed him to having a snout
The 60s version is straight up ugly, as the person before me said. Also, having a snout is more plausible
@@JurassicReptile That's like saying the red and black Spider-Man suit didn't look good which was why we see more red and blue Spider-Man even though that style's been iconic in it's own right. But the point being, at least they TRIED to respect what came before and try to replicate Steve Ditko's art style. Also, if he had a snout, he wouldn't be able to have any expressions and would be another Lion King 2019 situation where he looks so lifeless and expressionless.
22:02
Tom Holland: What am i chopped liver
Still the best romance and chemistry between spidey and love interest we have seen so far.
For the record, I know a LOT of people even just off the top of my head who would bully someone like Garfield's Peter. Obviously not condoning it, but I can easily see it
of course. People act like it's imposible to bully someone like Andrew. WTF, so an "attractive" guy is bully free? a skater is bully free? fuck people are dumb or even geekier than me
Really?!
All I see is "hot male model" and how many girls are tallying up to ask him to prom. Do hot guys usually get bullied?
@@josesarango3408 yeah. BUT. HAVE YOU ACTUALLY SEEN a hot guy, a Mac daddy, a man that girls would fashion a dildo after... GET BULLIED? If you haven't seen it then you're making assumptions.
@@milmil5350 I had plenty of girls flirting with me in junior high and plenty of guys who treated me like crap and made me feel like crap. So speaking from experience(although I don't claim to be male model status) good looks don't guarantee that everyone will like you. I was told back then that those guys were most likely jealous and bullied me because deep down they were insecure and wished they were as handsome as I was.
@@milmil5350 I mean bullying isn't always about looks tho, I feel like this flash was seeking superiority and pushing down others too make himself feel good, aka a bully. Why would it matter if he is hot? if he still acts a bit creepy and have a hard time talking to girls. And you a decent looking guy have noticed it you can become the "alpha" by pointing out those flaws and making them an outcast removing the chance for "Ladies too line up too ask him to prom"
“Accepting great responsibility, comes with great power.”
This would've saved Anakin's life.
may the power be with you.
"He's a good looking skater with more hairgel than Everett from O Brother, Where Art Thou? if he was in a boy band."
Wait... are you implying that the Soggy Bottom Boys are not a real boy band?
When first wearing the Spider-Man costume Andrew Garfield admitted to shedding tears.
Gwen Stacy had blue eyes in the comics but in this movie, she appears with green eyes.
James Cameron, David Fincher, Wes Anderson and Kathryn Bigelow were considered to direct the film.
Emma Stone was originally considered to be in 21 Jump Street (2012) but in order to be in The Amazing Spider-Man, she had to drop out of 21 Jump Street to do this movie instead.
*During the Coronavirus*
Me (In Willem Dafoe voice): Finish it!! FINISH IT!!!
"FROOOMMM EEEVIIILLLL *traumatized sobs* "
NC, you must review TASM2!! You must show the world, that the internet.. was actually right!
9:03 hey didn’t miles have that same problem?
The spiderman suit in this feels like it would’ve made a good costume for spiderman 2099. Kinda.
nah, I have to really disagree. Spider-Man 2099 is a lot better than this costume.
Garfield should have been 2099
now i want to see miguel o' hara in that costume
its to busy.
Yeah if it was all dark blue and had hexagons I think it would look pretty good as long as it doesn't have really long wrist razor things but honestly my favorite suit was probably from the worst Spider-Man show unlimited anyone remember that
8:13-8:17 the radioactive spider bite being given to a random guy would be a great start to a Spider-Man spoof/satire of the series. While ironically still being true to the spirit of Spider-Man funnily enough.
Poor Peter Parker picked a pear of pickled peppers. LOL 😂
At least spider-man actually moves around like a spider in this movie.
Also the 3ds game absolutely slapped
Dude, I could never get past the beginning when I was younger. Like how? But it did slap
Loved how he wraps the lizard in web in the school fight
Honestly, this movie is fine. It’s the sequel that’s a tire fire.
It's a meh at best
The sequel is absolute dogshit
Tire fire? The second movie nukes the Dislike button
@Lean Bean I'm actually the opposite! I find I like it more the more I watch it.
I think TASM 2 is underrated.
20:33 The singer from Nickelback wrote a song for the first Spider-Man movie then relocated to an alternate universe and killed Uncle Ben
18:21 There's an explanation for all the cranes: it's that if Marvel hadn't been pressed for time, OsCorp would've cameoed in The Avengers, meaning they would already be in the MCU continuity. The presence of all these cranes is because of cleanup work from the Chitauri invasion.
Thoughts:
This was the first Spider-Man movie I saw in theatres!
I was a little late to the showing but I found the film enjoyable at the time!
Did not know it was hated tho!
Next week the epic conclusion!
No my friend. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is the film that's utterly hated
@@thehomiedan6378 I was talking about how some people hated this movie!
My first one I saw in the movie too👍
@@Hijinkxx What about the second one?
Next Wednesday is also April fool's so who knows
Even though the Lizard looks nothing like how he looks in the comics, he does make a good cinematic version of Killer Croc.
His first appearance. The very first appearance.
An out of left field question: Are y'all ever going to do a Transformers: The Movie (1986) review?
Isn't the random dad at 15:56 the Boston Reaper from Criminal Minds??
((Update: just googled it. Yes, that's C. Thomas Howell the same guy who plays George Foyett in Criminal Minds.... weird?))
Nostalgia Critic: Calls Amazing Spider-Man a good movie
Cosmonaut Variety Hour: "So you have chosen...death."
To be fair, he did say "in my opinion" before he said that.
Cosmonaut is a hack.
@@prufan I feel like I should disagree but I'm failing to find an argument
Berenger Burkhart but it is good
*"Next week: The worst Spiderman movie ever made"*
So... 1977 or TAS2?
Edit: To all the people saying FFH, come on guys, Doug liked it, even more than Homecoming... and at least FFH (and Homecoming) don't have the exact same level of infamy that TAS2 has
Yes.
Far From Home
@@hennis124 lol
Behind TheBag no
TASM2 is really good so I think it’s Homecoming.
Aight boys, I think we are getting Turkish Spiderman!!!
Please bring in the Snob to do that video with you.
