I still think Garfield looked the best as Spider-Man, but that version of Parker wasn't one I recognized. Not Andrew's fault, he didn't write the script. He blew me away in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, and I really expected to see better stuff from him, but he's making a living in Hollywood, I guess, so good for him.
Can’t agree more, I’ll never talk bad about any actor or actress.

I will, if they're a horrible person.
Garfield doesn't seem particularly horrible.
If Sony would have made him the post-college Chelsea apartment Spider-Man, instead of rehashing his high school origin story, he'd 100% be my favorite Spider-Man. He's absolutely perfect for that era of Peter Parker.
Maybe it's not too late. I haven't seen No Way Home yet, but from what I've read it seems like these 2 universes can co-exist.
Please, Sony, make Andrew Garfield Chelsea apartment Spider-Man movies!
Lol!!!

My daughter has always said that Toby was a great Peter Parker, Andrew was a great Spider-Man, but Tom is great as both! I kinda have to agree…
He looked great recently as Jim Bakker in The Eyes of Tammy Fay with Jessica Chastain.
He's a great and versatile actor, much of these English types are; they come from solid training and much are what we in the States would refer to as "character actors." They can do pretty much anything. I think he's exceptionally good in Never Let Me Go, Silence, and The Social Network. It's strange to me now seeing all these posts now going back and defending The Amazing Spider-Man series like they're under-appreciated masterworks all because of No Way Home. No, they still suck.
Just got in, literally. Wow I didn’t realize how much I missed when peter fought strange!!
That was all a blur to me, and the end fight I could follow along very well
My question is, the first time peter sticks goblin with the cure it doesn’t work, why?
Goblin was making it right? Looked like he was folllowing instructions on yellow pad..
You think the goblin was in charge the whole time and Sabotaged it?
Wicked good flick, personally I put this above end game

The film was too fast, the characters often remained too superficial. If you haven't seen the other films, you won't get as much out of the film. I went through the Amazing Spider-Man flicks beforehand. And "No Way Home" was not worth the torture.
Wow, first response I’ve seen like this. I totally understand though, I’m going through the same kind of feeling with another film recently released where everyone loves it and I have not a care in the world
Sorry you didn’t like it
The family has been rewatching all the McGuire and Garfield movies so we can rewatch No Way Home this Friday.
Last night we found a small Easter Egg in Spider-Man 3. It was in the hospital scene after Parker's first fight with Osborne.
Do you recognize the coffee cup design?

They do suck, but I'm actually gonna give cred to a great 3 beat moment in the first Amazing Spider-Man flick... (by paraphrasing it)
Near the end, Gwen Stacey's dad dies. As he dies he makes Peter PROMISE not be bring Gwen into his world - for her safety...
Then Gwen shows up at Peter's apartment, crying - post funeral, giving him crap for not being there "My classmates were there... where were you?". Peter is upset saying he can't see her... she walks away crying, turning back "He made you promise not to see me, didn't he?" - and then leaves.
Then we see Peter being Spidey around the city... shows up late to class (as Peter). As Peter walks in the teacher is giving him crap for always showing up late.... As he's getting to his seat behind a sad/angry, Gwen Stacey, he responds with to the teacher "I'm sorry... it won't happen again, I promise" to which the teacher responds with "Don't make promises you can't keep, Peter"
And then Peter leans into Gwen's ear from behind and whispers "but those are the best promises to break."
Gwen Smiles.
CREDITS.
GREAT ending to a boring, slow movie.
But I re watched that going into No Way Home, and so when Andrew Garfield, "Peter 3" talks about Gwen dying and not pulling punches?
I was all tears.

It's not that I don't like the film. It's just that the MCU as a whole is somehow no longer interesting to me. And No Way Home was just a part of what's wrong with the MCU.
It's too much. Now you have to watch 20 year old movies to understand the plot of a universe that had nothing to do with the other two universes.
It's great that they're enhancing the other two film series and bringing them into the MCU. But I don't like the "how".
I kind of understand, after this film I have zero interest really in anything else. I think we get one more spidy movie and that’s realistically the only thing I’m interested in
I have no interest in “phase 4” or what ever they call it
Well! Guardians is the only other thing I am in to.
No more iron man or cap… I’m done
Ok so I have another question that YouTube hasn’t answered yet
And I keep forgetting to ask it here
When doc gives the nano tech back to peter, the suit changes, but he doesn’t seem to use the nano tech anymore through out the movie
The iron spider suit he never uses again either.. am I forgetting something? Once it’s delivered back to him and the spider logo turns gold he never uses the tech again right? He always pulls the mask on and off?

I think he did T use the nano suit again.
I’m also kind of burnt out on the MCU. Hero is on the scene, villain comes up, hero goes after him, lots of fighting, hero wins, rinse and repeat.
I think going for I’ll just wait until they hit Disney + and watch them there.

I can’t remember.. I do remember thinking “he out the tech back, why is he not using the iron spider suit”

I never likes the iron spider suit anyway. But maybe he kept it and will use it in the next movies.
