Spider Man 2 VS The Amazing Spider Man 2 VS Spider Man Far From Home 

This video was 40 minutes, it certainly did not feel like that, it went so fast, keep up the great work 👍🏻

Tobey’s Spider-Man lost his powers because the stress. MJ wants to be with him but and he wants to be with her, but he’s too busy being Spider-Man. Harry hates Spider-Man because he thinks he killed his father, and he’s upset with peter because he takes Spider-Man’s pictures and he won’t turn him in. Then J Jonnah Jameson is destroying Spider-Man’s career, Peter’s failing his classes, him and aunt May are both having money troubles, and on top of all of that his idol is planning on destroying New York.

In Spider-Man 2 His powers Come and go constantly because he Is unsure if he even wants to still be a hero. But overall Good Video

Too bad we won't see all 3 movies comparing their 3rd movie

The reason peter’s powers start to go is because of his emotions. He only loses his powers after extreme emotional stress. Like his aunt being turned down on a loan. His best friend hating him and the girl of his dreams getting married in the same night. And him missing MJ’s play because of Spider-Man. He starts to reject this identity and as such subconsciously rejecting his powers.

That astronaut guy should've been Venom. Think about it, Pete stole his woman, she dumped him on their wedding day and he's an astronaut.

In Spider-Man 2 he was clearly losing powers because of the stress and troubles due to his double life, note how after a bad day (him missing MJ's play) his powers fail for the first time. It was clearly explained.

I got to correct you on something about Spiderman 2 because you clearly didn't pay attention. It wasn't that Peter was losing his powers, the emotional weight he was carrying around being commited to Spiderman was becoming detrimental. It was affecting his personal life and all his relationships with his friends and family. And it caused him so much turmoil that it was ultimately affecting his ability to be Spiderman. Peter was taking on so much responsibility that it threw him off balance and he became sick. Sick in the mind, body and soul. This movie was about finding that balance between Peter and Spiderman. In the first film he decided to completely commit to being just Spiderman and sacrifice Peter Parker. But that decision almost destroyed him as we saw in the 2nd film. By the end of Spiderman 2 he finds that balance especially when Mary Jane fully commits to sharing those risks with him. She decided to share that load with Peter so he's not carrying it alone. His powers returned upon realizing that his loved ones were in danger. And if he'd just quit they'd be in even more danger than not having them in his life (which is what he thought was best in the first movie). Peter wasn't losing his powers it was a mental condition. The scene where he goes to the doctor was very self explanatory. By the end of Spiderman 2 Peter realizes he's not just a superhero he's also human.

2004 - Spider-Man Fighting a Mentor who got brain washed by his technology 2014 - Spider-Man Fighting His childhood friend and an innocent guy who mistakenly became electro and got rejected by society 2019 - Spider-Man Fighting Drones and Hologram Technology 😂

Eric Carter: With great power, comes great RU-vid content.

Spiderman 2 is still my favorite of the series. The action scenes in those movies were great and the suit is awesome with the music

Ah Rosie, I love this boy.

I used to dislike MJ from the Raimi movies because I thought she was a tease too, but honestly look at the character of Peter and what he puts her through. He makes her feel loved and special in the first movie. She's been verbally beaten down by a dad who treats her like crap, Harry has a very shallow relationship with her where he doesn't even stand up for her when his father calls her a golddigger, and the ONLY person who is there for her is Peter. She is ready to be with him and love him in the first movie's ending; but Peter inexplicably rejects her and she has no idea why. She'd been toyed with before and she needs to find someone who won't and John Jameson in SM2 is a wonderful boyfriend to her... she just can't get over Peter even though she tries. She ends off the movie choosing to stay with Peter because she understands why he did what he did and she loves him for his self-sacrificing love and what a hero he is. After really thinking about MJ she's not such a bad character at all, she's a realistic person trying to navigate a difficult relationship.

It'll be Raimi's Spiderman 2 for me. I just think that movie had lot more heart and soul put on it.

Im getting tired of spidey villains being created by tony

Alright, can we get the Russos for Tom Holland's Spider-Man 3?

Absolutely agree, Spider-man 2 is the best of them all.

Mary Jane touches Peter’s face to get him to open up… and when he doesn’t she gives up. You have to take these parts you’re picking out in context.

7:40 He lost his powers because he couldn't confess his love to Mary Jane, and that, along with his other problems, built up stress. This is explained by Dr. Octavius, or at least that is what I remember.

The thing that makes Spider-Man 2 the best is that it’s a regular 2000s drama masquerading as a superhero film. You can take out all action scenes and still have a beautiful movie

Tobey's loss of spider powers is meant to represent the emotional rut his character is in at this point. His powers correspond to his emotional state.

Tobey’s Spidey started losing his powers due to all of the stress mounting up and keeping his love for MJ stored inside, it was explained in the movie, remember the line said by Otto “if you keep something as complicated as love stored up inside, it can make you sick”

You missed the Rhino “storyline” lol

I love how you strongly recognize the many problems MCU spiderman has, specially since nowadays a lot of people seem to treat it as the perfect franchise, and its really far from that

Man, I agree with a lot of points, but when you talk about Mary Jane, you just so wrong, I mean, try to watch the movie again, but from her point of view

MJ to Peter in homecoming: *Middle fingers* Peter to MJ in FFH: *I think MJ really likes me*

It’s simple. The amazing spider man had constant meddling from Sony studios, and far from home was treated as just another two hour long episode in the MCU. Spider man 2 actually felt like something special. It was done with a clear vision, and with passion. THAT is why it will stand the test of time and that is why 20-30 years from now we can fondly look back and say yeah.. still an absolute classic

No matter what they do with Spider-Man in the future, I think that nothing will beat the charm and heart of the original Spider-Man Trilogy.

Spider-Man 2 for the win.

This is one I want to see: Raimi's Spider-Man (1 or 2 (or both)) Vs. Spider-Man PS4's story

Peter did face a major consequence in homecoming. He chose to ditch liz at the dance and face her dad instead then she ended up moving away and he lost the girl.

Finally someone that understands that the new spider man isn't all perfect and the old spider man has some good things

I don't understand how people still are confused about how Peter lost his powers in SM2, no shade intended but it was clear to me as a 9 year old when I first saw it. There's a line about "keeping it all bottled up inside can make you sick" and it's something that completely makes sense to me as an adult where my emotions getting in the way have hampered my performance in other areas of life. It's personifying Peter's stress in life and his heart being elsewhere in Peter's powers waning and it's as simple as that- which is why to me it's so effective.

Eric Carter:Releases The Spider-Man 2 Versus video Me:For 27 years I dreamt of you I craved you Oh I’ve Missed You!!!

in raimis Spider-Man, when peter loses his powers, its because hes not focused on being a hero, and being depressed.

I knew that Mysterio was a villain, but the twist still surprised me because I thought they were doing what they did in Iron Man 3 where they changed the character from the comics.

I don't think a lot of people understood MJ in Sam Raimis Spiderman. She has a lot of baggage to deal with, her terrible upbringing, her horrible father and her parents terrible marriage all that stuff affects children growing up. She takes that emotional trauma through with her into adulthood. I don't think she was being a tease in Spiderman 2. Peter was the only man who ever made her feel loved and special and who actually saw her for who she is. Her dad doesnt give a crap about her, flash used her as a trophy and so did Harry. So Peter rejecting her despite her knowing that he feels the same for her would have been a huge blow. She tries to replace him with Jameson but she loves Peter and it is very hard to stop loving someone even when they hurt you. Yes, her actions did come across as manipulative and selfish at times but we have to remember, in fact we saw in Spiderman, her terrible upbringing which definitely would affect how she deals with relationships. I feel people are too harsh on MJ. She's a very complex character and I THOUGHT Raimi knew this and tried to show it. I actually understand and sympathise with MJ more now than I've grown myself and been in relationships than I did when I was a kid. She's been starved for love all her life and Peter gave it to her then took it away. You don't think that would hurt and really affect someone who had such a crap childhood starved of affection from her father?

"The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is...is...is a lot of things." Well that's one way of putting it...

7:39 peter losing his powers actually makes sense its just told very subtle to the point that no one notices it, it's mention in the scene where peter and Otto are having dinner together and Otto says - if you keep something a complicated as love stored up inside it can make you sick. Since peter never really told mj how he felt about her in the first movie going into the second and finding out that mj is getting married he keeps bottling his feelings for mj to the point where it made him sick resulting to him losing his powers and he doesn't gain his powers back until he tells mj his feelings for her.

I really like the creative uses of the claws in Spider-Man 2, the cigar, the glasses, the whisky.

There is a film theory about how Spider-Man lose his powers

I’m so glad other people dislike the MCU spiderman I thought I was going CRAZY

Spider-Man 2 won an Academy Award. That's an instant W 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Tom holland's spidey did have a logical reason to give Beck the glasses though. Peter thought Beck was a partner of Nick Fury so you'd think it would be safe to assume he was a legitimate hero. Also Fury's yelling and everything around him made him believe he wasn't responsible enough to have the glasses so he wanted to give that responsibility to someone he thought was more capable to handle it.

The winner is Spider-Man

You should watch cinemawins everything great about spiderman 2. In the movie Dr. Octavius says "Love should never be a secret. If you keep something as complicated as love stored up inside, it could make you sick". Spiderman 2 is honestly a work of art in a way, even if it is campy

“How is she able to pay to power Peter Parker’s suit?” Large Checks from Tony Stark Business.

I think you don't use a lot of context in the Mary Jane character issue. I think you don't regard that the face touching is all after Peter himself plays similarly in Spider-Man 1, where he and her are holding hands, he gives that big speech to her and shuts her down at the end of the movie when she kisses him and says she loves him. Isn't it possible that MJ telling Peter she's dating something that's more than companionship is her trying to get him realize she's not going to wait around for him? I think that's what that means. And I think you don't regard that MJ has already told Peter she has feelings for him and he shut her down in SM 1. Should she just reiterate that to someone whose rejected her and as far as I think he's basically said, only has friendship to give? I think she's not sure about the choice she wants to make in that situation, as on paper John is a better match for her than Peter in his stressful, dangerous life and by looking down barrel of the gun that is the isle she chooses then. But if she were to tell John in person would that make him really feel better? It's not great for him, but does it villainize her for choosing how she did it? And I think you're making assumptions about how the John character feels in situations and operates. Why do you think she uses him to get to Peter? I don't think the movie depicts that for the most part. I think she's committed in staying with the man who she thinks on paper is best for her. It's not necessarily healthy, but using him to get to Peter isn't what I think the movie is developing. No, to call Peter a saint in comparison to MJ is untrue. Peter is still the person I think trying to ask out an engaged woman, still the person who tries to woo her with poetry after disappointing her and telling her all he had give her was being her friend. From MJ's perspective I think it's a reasonable perception that Peter complicates things and is emotionally jerking her around. And even in regards to things MJ may not know about at that point. Like Peter kissing his friend's girlfriend. Or in Spider-Man 3 putting on the black suit, knowing what it can do. And even in comparison to other villains. Eddie is still more outright villainous before he gets the suit and Flint is a criminal before too. I don't think Gwen is the superior love interest. Why would she be? I think she's not as much of a character as Mary Jane. I think Gwen has little emotional roundedness and character development, and that her character is there mainly to service Peter, while she herself in character aspects doesn't have a lot going on. Even the likable remark I don't think applies, considering her disregard for her dad's dying wish and uncaring attitude about him at all in that movie. Even her helping I think is more plot based.

As a kid, I loved spider man 2 and 1 and even three. Spider-Man 2 was the perfect blend of drama, action, and even comedy. It was very funny at some points and dived so deeply into Peter’s character that by the end, we really feel like Peter is US. I didn’t like far from home. It didn’t try to be anything but a big action blockbuster. The action was really good, and it actually could be funny at some points, yet it just was standard and by the numbers. Of course, Spider-Man 2 had good action and good acting. That is everything positive I have to say about it. Spider-Man 2 is the only logical choice. Anyone who questions that has mental issues

He’s not really dumb in ffh though. He just met this hero figure who ‘sacrificed’ himself for a planet not his own. Sure he might’ve met him just a few days prior, but after seeing that, I feel like Peters trust in Beck would be high enough to entrust him with Edith

I thought if far from home dealt with tony starks death to much then he would be "iron boy"

I agree. The theme in Spider-Man Far from Home could have been about change and how to deal with grief. That was SUCH a missed opportunity.

I can’t believe I sat through this entire 40 minute video.

Mary Jane isn’t being manipulative. She’s trying to get peter to open up because she genuinely wants to know if peter truly loves her or not. Yes, using other guys as a way for him to do so is pretty extreme but you can’t forget that in MaryJane’s perspective, peter is being the tease and is being rough towards her. There are times where he says he loves and cares for her and he obviously shows it but then there are other times where peter says they can’t be together and they can only be friends. This is obviously due to Peter’s double life as Spider-Man but Mary Jane doesn’t know this and she perceives it as peter playing with her emotions. I’m not saying Mary Jane is the best person in the world but to brush it off as her being manipulative and being a bad human being is kinda inconsiderate.

The reason why he handed over the glasses wasn’t because he was stupid. The glasses symbolized Tony’s Legacy and he felt that he couldn’t carry on his legacy so he handed them off to mysterio because he seemed trustworthy and had appeared to be more powerful. His arch is to grow into the role of a greater hero.

27:33 I actually liked the mysterio vs nightmonkey battle the best. I LOVED the theme that played and I feel like if peter fought differently, he couldve beat mysterio RIGHT there.

Eric, for how many storylines TASM 2 has, you forgot the Rhino appearing out of nowhere in the beginning and again at the end. You also forgot the small part where Spider-Man saves a kid from bullies, while also inspiring him to be like Spider-Man and this comes into full effect when he comes back at the end to face Rhino in full costume.

"If you keep something as complicated as love stored inside, it will make you sick" That quote from Otto Octavius is why Peter's powers were going away. Oh and I'm quite sure he got the glasses back easily because Mysterio was dead or when someone else is given permission, that person and all other people have permission.

If you count the Elementals as their own villains then Far From Home has 5 villains,Sandman,Hydroman,Cyclone,Moltenman and Mysterio

In FFH Peter can grieve without being emotionally drained. He doesnt need to mope hours of the movie just because Tony died.. Its like life in a way, yeah someone died, but things still happen, people still have responsibilities. Life still moves on...

I'm delighted I saw the Sam Raimi trilogy.

I love how you mention the ups and downs. Most people just talk about the major cons of the films they don’t like.

Oh, and there's also something else I forgot to mention, and it's about Electro's motivation, because I think you might've missed something about it. Max Dillon wasn't just a nerd - he was shown to be someone who's underappreciated and pushed around a lot. And, as seen in the brief fantasy that he has of berating his boss, he's got a *lot* of anger pent up inside him as a result. When Spiderman saved him, he felt appreciated, which is what I think made him such a big fan of Spiderman: because he felt like Spiderman was his only friend, the only person who he could trust. When Max became Electro, I think the electricity fried his brain and made him go insane. And, being insane, he lost control of his mind, so all of the anger that he had built up inside him was all primed to be unleashed. He saw himself garnering attention from the city, but then Spiderman took the spotlight, and that would've made his mind just COMPLETELY lose it, but he still partly saw Spiderman as a friend, which is why Electro was surprisingly reserved when talking to Spiderman in the streets. But once the sniper up on the roof shot Electro, his insane mind saw it as Spiderman setting him up so that he could be killed, which is why he then called Spiderman a liar. Electro then felt like he couldn't trust anyone anymore, and he finally let loose all of his rage and emotions towards everyone for treating him like crap all the time when he was Max. Although he mainly directed his rage at Spiderman, because, y'know... Electro's a villain and all. But yeah, that villainous motivation of his is something that I pieced together from my first viewing of the movie, and it looked like you might've missed that in this video, so I'm just pointing it out here for you.

I’m pretty sure they glasses memorized Peter, so he could put them back on. Also, Peter felt he could trust Mysterio as another mentor figure because Stark died. I do agree with everything else though. I was expecting more grieving or getting over death in Far From Home.

And another thing I liked how you played doc ock music while talking about Mary Jane 😂😂😂

This won't even be close but I'll still watch it

The video we've all been waiting for since far from home came out. Thank you so much!

Spiderman FFH: 9.5/10 Spiderman 2: 9/10 The Amazing Spiderman 2: 3/10

The likely reason for Tobey Maguire losing his powers is that he has lots of signs of PTSD so like when he loses his powers he's going through a lot of struggles but as the film goes on he focuses on his life and gets his powers back.

Spiderman 2>far from home>amazing spiderman 2 This is fact.

In Spider-Man far from home, the story with him growin into someone to fill in the shoes of Tony was pretty good to me honestly, there wasn’t just one scene where peter speaks upon it, literally the whole movie was that plot and is even why the villain of the movie almost won because peter didn’t believe he was good enough for the being a super hero but eventually came to realize in the end what he has to do

They should have framed it like we're waiting for the twist

Yes its finally here yes yes I am so happy now

1. Spider-Man 2 2. Spider-Man: Far From Home 3. The Amazing Spider-Man 2

After watching No Way Home. Let me just say that movie did Tom some well needed justice. Not gonna spoil it, but it low-key fixes the issues mentioned here about Tom's Spider-Man

You are the most underrated RU-vidr I know! How do u not have at least a million subs!!!

I did not expect a different outcome. Spiderman 2 is considered the best one in the original trilogy, easily the best live action incarnation of spiderman. This was not a contest.

Spider-Man: Far From Home did deal with the drama of Iron Man's death throughout the entire film plus the reason why Spider-Man gave the E.D.I.T.H. glasses to Mysterio is because he is insecure about Iron Man's death and Beck knows this so he manipulates Peter into seeing him as another mentor for Spider-Man

I think RU-vid is broken it doesn't say a million subs.

Did this dude totally forget Peter having to leave his love interest at the dance to go save the day, or Peter not being able to build the deathstar with Ned because he is being Spider-Man. Mcu spider hate needs to chill

My list: 1.- Spider-Man 2 2.- Spider-Man: Far From Home 3.- The Amazing Spider Man 2: Rise of Electro I really hate Spider-Man: Far From Home but I really enjoy more than The Amazing Spider-Man 2

I personally really enjoyed TASM 2. Plot wise, it was overwhelming (if there's something they got right plot wise, it was Gwen's death in my opinion), but there are so many good things about it, f.e. Andrew and Emma's chemistry, all the actors were great overall and the soundtrack - man, the soundtrack. Spider-Man Far From Home imo was a massive let down, because as you said, it just mostly redid Homecoming. And Spider-Man 2..... It's an amazing ride.

I understand the bit about Far From Home being less of a character study and more of a high schooler comedy, but I don’t know about the emotional portion only being in one scene. I noticed that there were other nods to it throughout the movie. During the charity(?) event where he has the Iron Spider suit, he panics and leaves to be alone. During the trip to Europe, there are multiple nods pointed out in front of him (the plane documentary, the murals), his screwups with using Stark tech (nearly killing Brad with the glasses, but #fuckyoubrad). I at least thought it was handled fine. That’s just my opinion. Judge as you will

Tobey lost his powers because it was psychological. A "mental block" if you will because of all the emotional stress and him struggling mentally about wanting to just be a normal person and not being Spider-man ..being Spider-man was literally destroying his life and was questioning whether he wanted to be Spider-man anymore. And then ultimately decided that he didn't want to anymore. His life was horrible because of it...It wasnt until the third act when he realized that wants to be Spider-man, which was perfectly built up to, and is ultimately freed from the mental block and gains his power back. No offense but that was pretty obvious. Just gotta look deeper, especially to what the doctor tells peter

He loses his powers because of emotional problems PTSD in them he faces his fear so he regains them.

Good job Eric. You took your time and made this 10/10 video

I personally disagree with far from home having bad action but everything else you covered i think you did very well

10:31 pretty sure that was all done so Mysterio could use that as more evidence that Peter was the one responsible for the drone strike and frame him as a villain...you know...what we saw in the after credit scene?

In my opinion the best Spider-Man movie is Into the Spider-verse, especially because it is mostly a love letter to all Spider-Man fans.

I came here as soon as I got notified.

The reason in Spider-Man 2 his powers disappeared was because peter was getting so sick and so unorganized that it started affecting his health which ended up affecting his powers making them go away. The reason his powers came back was because doc ock gave him that boost of energy to save mj

I have been waiting and this does not disappoint.

Hey, Eric Carter. When the new Spider-Man: Miles Morales game comes out, can you please make a versus video comparing the two? I would really love to see that.

I’ve finally got to see your match up with these three movies. Amazing video by the way

Let’s be real here, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has already lost

everything you said about Mary Jane was just golden 😂

I cannot wait until Spider-Man No Way Home comes out, your videos are so awesome man, I can't wait till you review it.

Finally!! U just had 50k so congrats but hopefully u upload more often. u take too much time between ur VS videos. I get that mostly ur videos are of good quality but ur still lagging in quantity. Hopefully u speed up ur pace in the future.

The second's always the best. With the introductions out of the way, you can stop holding the audience's hand and leap into awesomeness! ...Dunno why the third never matches up.

The ultimate battle you constructed yet!
