Here goes the most anticipated #SpiderManNoWayHome 0.25x Breakdown Part 2. Lads, there are some incredible details in this one, lemme know which one was your favorite, cheers!

I love that Andrew's "I love you guys" was unscripted. "That was just me loving them." - Andrew Garfield

“I did watch this movie 8 times in the theaters” Sounds like a treat tbh

I noticed another one that a lot of people seemed to miss. When may was telling peter that he needed to help Norman, peter said "it's not my problem." That phrase is used before ben's death in almost every piece of spider man media.

Detail that I think might be worthwhile, at 17:27 its stated that Andrew took more hits from Electro but Tobey is more worn out. I think it helps that Andrew has experience dealing with Electro and might have some lining inside his suit to better deal with his attacks, but Tobey has never dealt with Electro before so he wouldnt have it thus getting hurt more from less attacks.

Here are 2 details I found from this movie 1) A parallel that made us sad: Both Peter and Strange's first and last conversations were about their names. In IW Peter had the exchange of "made up" names with Strange. In NWH, they both exchanged their real names. Really heartbreaking 2) In the mid credits Tom Hardy only speaks about Iron man, hulk and Thanos. These 3 were the only ones who had snapped with the gauntlet.

Liz saying “He’s a liar” could also be referring to Mysterio lying about the drone attack. Yes, she probably blames Peter for throwing her dad in jail, but he also saved her life and her dad’s life and knows he’s a hero.

Until you pointed it out, I never thought of how Tom’s pose is literally a combination of both Andrew’s and Toby’s poses, with the half crouch and half open. That’s such a neat detail! (And -while going with the theme of open and closed-) I feel like it’s both showing his desire to not have his identity out there, while it already being out there.

Personally, the reason I believe Andrew was mostly wearing his spidersuit while Tobey wasn't is because of how their story in their universe is going. Tobey's Peter is making it work with MJ. Actually having a life as Peter and not just as Spiderman. Andrew's Peter is still broken about Gwen. Wondering if taking the responsibility of being Spiderman means that he can't be just Peter.

17:20 I actually think that the reason that Andrew isn’t as hurt by the lightning is because in AS2, he did a whole montage of insulating his gear. I know he insulated his webs but he probably did so to his suit as well. Since Tobey never fought electro, he never needed to make this upgrade.

The detail about Tobey feeling Electro’s attack more is also a nod to how Andrew has faced Electro before, and potentially upgraded his suit to resist electric current. That may have even happened in Amazing Spiderman 2, I can’t recall.

I am so glad that they let Doc Ock turn to good. I think his redemption ark was very good in the original movie. I always thought there was good there. Having him help out Spidies was amazing. I only saw this movie last night for the first time. I loved it.

One last thing that you may have missed is that Andrew saves Tom's MJ in the same way that Tobey saved his MJ back in the original Raimi film. So both a subtle nod to his thought put into saving Gwen but also the link in how the Peters think alike/nod to the Raimi film.

Canadian Lad’s breakdowns are always the best. Haven’t even finished yet and I can tell it was worth the wait

You missed one: doc ock was the only one who could grab electro because back in spiderman 2: he said the arms were designed to touch pure energy for his experiment. No one could get close enough except for otto. Love the content man!

I think my favorite detail that you missed is that when all the spidermen are swinging together, you can see the personality of each Peter in each of their swings. Andrew’s swing is very flashy, doing a lot of flips and twists while swinging. Tobey’s swing is very mundane by comparison, a sort of point A to Point B type of swing. Tom’s swing isn’t as flashy as Andrew’s but not as barebones as Tobey’s, every flip and twist he does feels as though it has purpose. And couple that with the pose thing you mentioned, it proves further that Tom is a perfect hybrid of both tobey and Andrew’s spidermen

I actually loved that Andrews "I love you guys" was improvised and not even in the script. It was also Andrew really saying he loved Tom and Tobey.

With the electro bit, the reason Andrews peter didn't seem as hurt is coz his suit is more resistant to electricity, which is why he was able to fight electro jn 2014 or whenever TASM2 was out

17:30 That is also indicative of how Andrew designed his suit to handle Electro, a key detail of the ASM movies. Tobey mainly had the one suit, and did modify it for this film (or possibly over time), but Andrew was constantly working on his suit and web shooters.

The scene with Andrew's Spider-Man saving MJ just made me think that he relives that moment in his head over and over again which is why he was more prepared for it. That was painful even before the "are you okay" part of the scene.

one thing u forgot is when Toby was pep talking or encouraging Andrew he called him AMAZING.He called the Amazing spider man Amazing.That shows that Andrew really is the amazing spider man.

Andrew got less affected by the electricity cause his suit and webs are specifically made to resist electric shocks in tasm movies. While Tobey's suit isn't that much resistant.

The only guy you know you can count on when it comes to MCU easter eggs.

Also! The lower webbings on Tobey's mask in NWH is also rounder compared to his mask in the Raimi days. And I think Tobey's Spider-Man holding his chest after being attacked by Electro was because his suit isn't resistant to electric shocks unlike Andrew's Spider-Man suit, where Andrew improved his suit and his webs & web-shooters to be somehow resistant to electricity in TASM2. Then when Goblin threw the spinning blades to the three Spider-Man, notice that Tom Holland's Spider-Man jumps the way how Tobey jumped in Spider -Man 1 when he was tricked by Goblin in the burning apartment. But what a great videoooooo. You're always my go-to when it comes to looking for details and easter eggs! And you're right about the Marvel VFX team deserving these kinds of praise, they really really did good, even during a Pandemic!

I always thought Tobystopping Tom at 20:16 was Toby living by May's words when she says "who are we to choose who lives or dies" or something like that

17:30 i think this is also due to the fact that andrew's suit was insulated to avoid getting shocked like in TASM1. So it's safe to assume it helped him alot more than Tobey's suit.

As a VFX student, I agree with the person who emailed you. Even minute details like that shadow transition from Spider-Man to Peter Parker on the bridge in part 1 would take hours to create, and most people would not even notice it.

The detail about Tobey being hurt more by Electro could be because of his age, but I think it is more that Andrew had fought Electro before and likely added more electrical insulation to his suit for future enemies.

I noticed a detail at 12:43 part of the movie, when tom holland's spidey telling which cures to whom, he didn't mentioned green goblin nor norman osborn bcs he wanted to kill him so badly, and the tobey's peter knowing so well then says that he could make cure for mr.osborn. what a great character development

I've seen Andrew saving MJ dozens of times (literally, it's my favorite scene in the entire movie). His face, his voice... you can feel his pain, his fear for failing again and having another Peter go through what he went... seriously, I think I cried every time I saw it. Gwen's death is one of my favorite (and most hated) scene in cinema, Andrew's pain feel so raw and real. Him saving MJ hurts so much.

When Andrew Garfield’s Spider-man saved MJ it legitimately made me cry, even seeing it again in this video made me tear up. It was such a short but infinitely important scene, I’m so happy they included it in the movie.

Andrew's acting when he saved MJ holy shit. Like it's both a redemption and a reliving of regret. So many emotions going on. 'I finally did it right' and 'Had I done THIS she would still be alive' going on. Just visualising Gwen in his arms surviving the fall. Wishing that he could redo the scenario and make the difference now that he knows how to do it. Even the 'NO!' before he jumped to save her was one of the most desperate NOs I've ever seen. He visualised failing to save someone for the second time and how much that would absolutely BREAK him. Seriously, the entire sequence was done so well. The storyboarders, directors, sounds designers, Andrew Garfield, and anyone else I'm overlooking all did a fantastic job making that very short scene VERY impactful and meaningful.

I think you were right about McGuire's spider man pose being the classic pose but I have possible reason for the other two. Garfield's pose IMHO, is an open stance and really identifies it is a Stan Lee spider man because Ditko's and Romita's spider man suits had webbing under the arms. As for Holland, this is the everso popular Marvel superhero landing that was literally picked on in the Black Widow movie. Either way, I absolutely love the shot and the movie as whole. Great job on the commentaries 👏

There's one more nice detail: When Peter talks to the Women from MIT on the bridge she interrupts him and says "You didn't rehearse that, did you?" At the end of the movie, when Peter comes to see MJ, we actually see him rehearse his speech to her, which means that MJ is way more important to him than MIT

Congrats, the marvel reach out to you. You deserve it.

I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this yet. When electro first shows his powerful form with the arc reactor, his face is briefly covered in electricity, which forms the shape of electro’s comic mask

I think the Electro attack on Tobey and Andrew may have been to show that Tobey's suit wasn't designed to take electric attacks, but Andrew's suit was modified to fight electro, to be able to use his special webbing he made.

It’s absolutely amazing how they were able to balance all the characters in the movie and not miss a single beat. I remember when I first saw it, the pacing in the beginning of the movie seemed too quick but later it allows for the movie to fall into place so much easier. They did something great by using that “classic-ness” from the raimi era and combining it with the MCU. Seeing Tobey and Andrew reprise their roles is amazing.

14:20 "I love you guys." Still love that this line was improvised and the reactions from Tobey and Tom were genuine.

Normans laugh was Improved and when he did it they all got chills

17:26 I took that as the difference in their suits, as Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man has fought Electro before, he would have designed his suit with electric resistant materials as opposed to Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man having never fought an electric based villain, he never thought about doing the same for his suit's material. Thus Maguire's Spider-Man would inevitably be more damaged

I can't imagine how many times Andrew's spiderman was up in that clock tower imagining the thousand different ways he was able to save Gwen :(

The fact that one of the team members of Marvel sent an email to him about finding small details in the movies shows that he’s dedicated to his work and he loves it. We owe you the likes and the subscriptions to your channel for all your hard work you have done in the past two videos for this movie!

10:39 "I can't believe marvel photoshopped him to the entire fvcking movie" LMAO 😭😭

Tom's pose is also the classic superhero pose that is both used and mocked in various superhero movies.

16:33 Fun little detail in the film, when Tobey lands on the Statue of Liberty, he doesn’t make a sound, while the other two make a little bang sound when they land, furthermore proving his point.

I really like how in 13:19 he talks about Andrew being quiet and being the one who focuses the most, because If you remember- in the TASM2 time “stops” which is where Peter is analyzing electro’s attack in the square. Just shows the immense focus Andrew’s Peter can achieve.

Joey : He's a doctor, not a mathematician.

Stressing even more how amazing this film was. The money shot of all 3 spider-mans landing next to eachother also directly shows their personalities. Looking back in the films these are the poses that they all frequently use. Tom holland's peter often does that pose without the suit on. Andrew's, like you said, always has an open stance towards combat, and finally toby is often seen evaluating scenes before jumping into them, showing toby's analytical approach. They really didnt drop the ball on this one. Even though i knew that Toby and Andy were gonna be in this film before watching it, i was so insanely impressed in the way they did it.

I think the reason The Goblin went from genuine fear to legitimately laughing when Peter starts hitting him is because he realized that Peter isn't putting his full strength into his punches. Peter is fully capable of straight up decapiting someone with one punch. Goblin's whole goal was to make Peter abandon his morals (he pulls his punches because he knows they're lethal AF.) Once Goblin realizes this, he stops being afraid and starts laughing. That's why he killed May. Even TASM said he "eventually stopped pulling his punches" (basically saying he started wrecking people.)

Something that I think a lot of people missed is that the train Dr. Strange summons in the mirror dimension is the exact same train from Spider Man 2. A good amount of the people on that train saw Spider Man's true identity, but agreed not to tell anyone, so bringing that train in might have been a connection to Tom Holland's line of "everyone that knew I was Spider-Man should still know"

I wonder how many years have passed for Tobey and Andrew’s spider-man in their respective timelines since we last saw them.

I think Ben still told Peter the "with great power comes great responsibility" line, it just didn't stick. He says "Yeah, I know" when May says the line. Peter has spent the three movies trying to put his responsibility on others and it took a personal loss for him to truly live by those words.

The electro bit is actually wrong about Tobey being old and taking more damage, the reason Andrew is fine is because that suit can withstand electricity better

I would also like to add that Peter seems to be able to better focus with his eyes closed. This was touched upon in Far from Home, but Peter closed his eyes right before webbing Goblin's hand.

You deserved that praise from Marvel! You're the best for finding ALL the details. I watch another channel on easter eggs too, but they don't find all of the ones you do. Mostly comic book references. You're amazing!

This was an amazing movie. Totally felt the emotion and was immersed at almost every scene, (I was the only one inside the theater because of location restrictions) I had the cinema all for myself and it contributed to an amazing experience watching this movie. I totally agree with you especially when Toby's Spidey caught the glider, his eyes said a thousand words. Brilliant. And Willem Dafoe, damn. Epic actng. That's the Goblin!

19:33 "Andrew must've thought of a thousand different ways he Couldve saved his Gwen. So he was well prepared this time for a situation like this." Damn

There is one more detail. When Tom removes all the cure devices at the lab, he mentions those for Sandman, Electro & Lizard but takes a pause while not taking Osborn's name. Tobey notices this & realizes Tom's intentions. After this he asks Tom - "Gotta cure all of them right?" to which Tom reluctantly nods.

toby is the best spiderman, he started it all, and seeing him again in 2021 literally gave me chills and I'm so grateful to watch the person who made us fall in love with spiderman back on action, much love for you toby, and thank you so much

I love this video !!! Thank u so much for giving all of these details for us, it is so well explained and i agree with every point of what you said. I LOVE THIS MOVIE.

19:39 Andrew literally had a “I’m still worthy” face when he saved MJ

I think what actually makes me cry, is that Stan Lee couldn’t see this movie. Rest in piece to the greatest hero ever.

this guy is so dedicated and definitely deserves more subs for his dedication. Like watching it 8 times just for 2 vids, damn dude.

@The Canadian Lad Very interesting detail about the eye agamotto, strange uses it to bend the reality of the mirror dimension insted of using the dark magic

Another little detail I don't see many point out is when Andrew jumps towards MJ to save her, there is a blink and you miss moment where he pushes a steel beam out of the way while in the air and his head is completely focused on MJ. This shows the strength of his spider sense they displayed in ASM 2, his strength, as well as the determination he had to save her in that moment.

21:13 The text: "Truly magnificent." The audio: "sOw FoOkHeN BYuTifuLl"

I also noticed that electro, whenever using his powers with the arc reactor, for a moment had the comic accurate mask

6:17 Tobey when he first meet goblin for the first time was when his powers where still evolving and this is why he did not sense the goblin personality switch that means Tobey is not weaker in spidey sense he was fighting goblin when he was not ready and Tom had spidey power for more time then freshly bited by spider Tobey

Do you think that the reason why Tobey felt better when Andrew cracked his back was because only another Spiderman would have the strength to give him the chiropractic help he needed? Just a theory

I love the detail at 7:04, Peter closes his eyes and trusts his *tingle*, same way he did in Far From Home in the last fight against the drones. Just shows that even though he has mastered his sense throughout the years, there are still times where he has to completely shut off his other senses and just trust the *tingle*.

16:08 The Spider-Men may have landed in order of each portrayal of the character, but the villains after this shot KIND OF appeared in the reverse order of appearance. It’s very close but I’m not so sure. Just kind of thought about this looking back at this movie.

I'm pretty sure the way they land on the stature of liberty is a nod to how their respective Spiderman poses are in their movies. Tobey's Spiderman in the original movies has his hands between his legs as his pose. Andrew's Spiderman in his movies doesn't seem to ever really have a pose like that, but more of a combative open pose. Tom's Spiderman always does his specific pose in all of his movies.

The fact the Tobey took more damage during the electro fight may also be due to Andrew insulating his suit during tasm2 to fight electro. Sure it hurt Andre because electro is more powerful but not nearly as much as Tobey who had no insulation

Andrew saving MJ was the scene that nearly made me cry. You could see that it redeemed him in his own eyes. All three of these guys really proved what amazing actors they are in this movie, with the number of scenes where they communicated so much with so little dialogue.

You are definitely the man to follow for all the cool details. Along with just a handful of others.

I really would have loved to seen them include the Miles Morales Spiderman in No Way Home, but seeing Garfield and Tobey playing Spiderman again was still golden. Also seeing other OG characters just made this movie feel so much like Spiderman.

17:44 [ oh it’s loki ] *“My back!* o- *My back!”*

One detail I also really love concerning Goblin’s entrance in the Statue of Liberty fight is, after he says “Can the Spider-Man come out to play!?!”, Tobey’s reaction is shown blatantly for a few seconds and you can see how shocked and scared he was hearing his very first nemesis again.

I personally think that when doc ock went back to his universe that that was the reason he took back control of the arms in tobeys last movie since every one came back to before they died and doc ock was turned good in now way home

I wanna add one thing. I dont know if its an easter egg, but it really resonated with me, because it reminded me of this one issue in the 90s before the end of the clone saga, when Rielly initally became spiderman and had to essentially restart his life alone a lot like how did at the end of the movie. Also it often snowed back then to emphasize how alone he was with no past, no friends, and no job. In many ways toms spiderman is pretty much like Rielly where his life is no longer his own

8:59, it’s also worth noting that in the first Spider-Man movie back in 2002, the first thing Green Goblin did after deducing Peter Parker was Spider-Man was attack Aunt May (Rosemary Harris) because “the cunning warrior attacks neither body nor mind but the heart” and even though Marisa Tomei is a different Aunt May he just did the exact same thing again

Tobey’s Spider-Sense was actually able to detect Norman’s shifting intentions. In the Spider-Man 1 novel during the Thanksgiving scene Tobey’s danger sense actually grows more intense as Norman is putting together that he’s Spider-Man. Tobey just consciously pushes his danger sense aside because he reasons that he has no reason to perceive his best friends dad as a threat. Compare that to Tom already knowing that Norman can swap into the Goblin at anytime. Regarding Electro VS Andrew/Tobey, Andrew was screaming in pain at the onset of his enduring of the electricity (he also has electricity resistant web shooters, where some of Electro’s arcs were attacking), where as Tobey was talking with 0 strain towards the END of Electro’s attack: “Otto…No.” Not to mention that at that point in the sequence Tobey was nearly crushed by Sandman; someone who briefly knocked Tobey out in SM3, as well as Andrew’s rouges. Just wanted to point those details out since I’ve looked into the sources beyond the movies as well as comparing the strength of characters a lot more than the average viewer. ✌️✌️✌️

I love your work it’s making the movie even more better that I thought of it before even when I didn’t thought it was possible

I loove this informative work. Thank you for uploading this, 2 years ago. Everything is great expect that swear beep, it's a 10 on volume and your voice was a 6. None the less, keep up the great work! Got me subbed 😎😎for a lizard, he can reaally pronounce his P's ahhaha

The only guy who can tell you literally in between lines , easter egg and like almost a whole another universe from something very simple. Love this Lad

The reason why Tobey was more hurt than Andrew when they were attacked by Electro could be because Andrew has faced him before and has upgraded his suit to withstand electric shocks, whereas Tobey's version of Spider-Man has never faced Electro before. But, yeah, it could also be because he's older.

It's unbelievable you find all of these details just out of the theater, even though you went 8x times. But yeah, this movie is so good I think it never gets boring! Appreciate your work!

Just feel the emotion going through toms peter rn he lost everyone everyy single one . happy who was kinda his newguardian,his spiderman bros which made him win the battle with the evils,his true friend with whom he spent most of the time with , his aunt who raised him from when he was small, the love of his life*second who always cared about him .Honestly i was crying at the scene where tom and happy were standing in front of mays grave .He is going through a lot rn

The fact that you watched it in a theater 8 times without the movie pausing and observing everything is just pure dedication. You're an awesome lad. Amazing work! 👏

I’m so glad they were able to pull of having all three Spider-Mans together! Thanks for your breakdown TheCandianLad 🎉

When Andrew said "I love you guys" I wanted to jump through the screen and give him a big hug, he's wonderful.

The scene when Tom fights goblin could also be a call back from captain America vs iron man. Thus setting the tone of student (tom) and teacher (stark) where Tom is in captain America's shoes and green goblin is the one that took his parents away.

Excellent breakdown, as always! The scene that touched me the most was right after May's death: Happy arrives at the scene. He sees Peter mourning above May, whilst the policemen approach his car and violently apprehend him. Even at this time, having seen his love interest dead and himself being arrested, the first thing that Happy thinks and does is to protect Peter, by urging him to flee. He doesn't call to him for help, he cares not about what 'll happen to himself; he just wants Peter away from that tragic and utterly heartbreaking scenery. This reminded me of how protective everyone has been towards Peter. Despite his superpowers, despite the fact that he turns out to be one of the most competent new avengers (he even outsmarted Dr. Strange), he is still a kid, a kid from Queens. And everyone around him, feel the urge to protect him and his emotional world, regardless of the fact that he is the hero, he should be the one who saves and protects. A pretty awesome antithesis right there. Despite its flaws, this version of Spider-Man was a bliss to experience; From Iron Man's sidekick, only recruited for the Airport Battle, to becoming his own man, after having earned the utmost respect and love from the people he admired the most throughout his journey. Tony's emotional indifference towards him at first, turned into a warm, lasting hug in Endgame. Happy Hogan, from being frustrated and tired of him, grew to a loving friend who saw in Peter's eyes a new icon, a new hero to follow. Dr. Strange, who viewed Peter as a spoiled and immature kid, ended up respecting him greatly, due to the magnitude of the sacrifice that Peter asked to be bestowed upon him. Aunt May, the mother that he never had, right before she died as a consequence of his choices, assured him that he still did the right thing, that his morality is undeniable and his character sincere. And now, he lost everything and everyone. He willingly underwent the ultimate sacrifice. And that's what Spider-Man is about. Taking responsibility, no matter the cost. No Way Home was by no means a perfect movie, but it was truly, as stated by many, a love letter to the hero we grew up with.

7:41 I mean Willem Dafoe's Goblin performance actually reminded me of the Joker! That good of an actor he is when it comes to portraying psychopath characters. Indeed an unsung legend

19:41 I remember when i watched this first time, I missed this scene. Andrew has always been my favourite and the whole theatre was clapping and shouting it was amazing. I was in tears I missed the shot of Andrew crying and holding MJ like that.

19:14 I almost cried at this scene bc I knew the only reason he was the first to react after Tom was to redeem himself and to not let Tom’s Peter to suffer the same pain as him

I noticed one detail in the scene when Tom senses the goblin. He closed his eyes just right before he webbed Norman. Its like a callback when he fought mysterio where he fully depended on his peter tingle.

The fact that you caught them swinging off of Tom's webs gave me mad chills. This is something extraordinary. I love spiderman and you pointing this out made me appreciate this movie so much more.

Also If you didn’t notice after they talk and work together the right way, When they flip they all have their classic flips from their own movie
