“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

I absolutely love the “are you a cop??” “... really?” Gets me every time

Love it or hate it, the Stan Lee cameo was the best part of the movie.

How are teenage science geeks such perfect seamstresses when it comes to making their highly cinematic perfectly fitting costumes?

Honestly the Lizard here looks more like Killer Croc than the Killer Croc in Suicide Squad.

Therapist: Nostalgia Critic thumbnails can't hurt you Nostalgia Critic thumbnails:

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.

"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

Therapist: it's okay, nostalgia lizard isn't real, it can't hurt you Nostalgia lizard:

Critc: well that's it for spider month! Fans: FINISH IT!

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.

I will always remember Uncle Ben's words in this film as "not choice, responsibility".

Nostalgia Critic Lizard is the most cursed thing I've seen all day.

“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

NC: "And even that healed up rat is having a few... issues." Rat: "ŅǞĄÀЯƑ."

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

"Secrets have a cost. They're not free. Not now, not ever." -Aunt May

Mr. Internet is going to be a reoccurring character, isn't he.

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."

19:20 I He didn't have backup because they were turned into lizard people.

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.

"You know in the future if you're gonna steal cars, don't dress like a car thief man."

"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?

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.

"What bully would pick on him?" You'd be amazed at all the petty reasons people can come up with to bully someone.

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."

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.

No offense to the die hard fans of the Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy, this is my favourite Spider-Man film.

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"

If I'm being honest, I only remember like 10% of this movie...

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.

I agree this is a decent movie. But it's also totally forgettable. The only memorable scene for me was the Stan Lee cameo

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.

19:12 Me: “Poor. Peter. Parker. Pick-uh. Peck-uh. Peppers-oh crap, my jokes aren’t original”.......DAMMIT!

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.

Before Spiderverse, this was my favorite film. I loved Garfield as Parker.

I'm pretty sure the overblown negative reaction he's responding to in this is directed more the the sequel rather than this one.

Peter's keyboard must be super heavy, or bolted down to his desk, to be able to yank off the key caps like that 🤔

"POOR PETER PARKER...PICKED A PECK OF PICKLED PEPPERS" I died

I actually enjoyed the movie and don’t care what others would think of me for enjoying this movie

That thumbnail is honestly the single most terrifying thing I ever seen in life

"pretty hot reveal"... Spins. "Do me" hahahahaha!

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...

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.

"I suppose I could go one day more" - don't you mean One More Day? :P

Before you comment remember: Rami, Webb or MCU everyone hates One More Day.

"Tell Emilio... I still know he exists!" LOL!

Aight, hot take; Andrew Garfield Spider-Man > Tom Holland Spider-Man

Nostalgia Critic Thumbnail: Why do i hear boss music??

You failed to mention the way Peter found Connors with the webs. He did it like an actual spider

TALK ABOUT SPECTACULAR SPIDERMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES!!!!

It should've ended with Peter 100% breaking up with Gwen in keeping to the promise with her father.

This wasn't that bad. It was a little overcomplicated and a touch confusing, but the next movie is absolutely awful

"You did that on purpose, Flash!" For some damn reason I think this is Mary Jane

11:46 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🤔

18:17 Even though there are plenty of buildings, which of course, are bigger targets for web swinging.

I still think Gwen is the best love interest from all of the Spider-Man movies

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

7:43 "he bites one of 'em!" I honestly wanna see him bite the spider first now.

The “NARF” line broke me!!!😂😂😂

Finally, a place where I can say that I unironically like The Amazing Spider Man

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...

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.

Critic hates split personalities, but he never said anything about Lizard having voices in head. He still thinks that Lizard got “sympathy and attention” as villain?

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

"I can go on One more day" That frase and Spiderman should never be used together

I love the "poor Peter Parker" memes/jokes 😂😂

Tobey Maguire was 27 when Spider-Man came out in 2002.

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

Poor Peter Parker picked a pear of pickled peppers. LOL 😂

3:44 For whatever reason the way NC says "BLINDFOLDED" gets me every time... Also yes, the Lizard needed a snout BADLY!

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

"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.

I really like this one. Probably my favorite behind Into the Spider-Verse.

THis one had my fav Stan Lee Cameo as well.

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

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.

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

Honestly, this movie is fine. It’s the sequel that’s a tire fire.

*During the Coronavirus* Me (In Willem Dafoe voice): Finish it!! FINISH IT!!!

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.

"That lizard should have a snout" actually looks a lot, in the face at least, like the character from his 60s appearance

That thumbnail will give me nightmares ...

"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.

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

That doug in the thumbnail is cursed beyond comprehension

Give this film credit Garfield is one hell of a good actor

14:35-14:44 First of all: There is a difference -Gwen’s dad is a police officer -Keaton is a criminal (Not a major difference but still) Also not to be too fanboy-ish but I think I like the way the MCU does the “enemy is close to someone I know” trope better But that’s just my opinion

Even though the Lizard looks nothing like how he looks in the comics, he does make a good cinematic version of Killer Croc.

This is still one of my most favorite Spider-Man films. Half the hate it got was purely because people couldn't take off their rose-tinted nostalgia glasses they had for the Rammi films, when if anything it felt like everything I felt was missing from those films. I really do hope those rumors about a live-action Spider-verse with all three cinematic Spider-Men actors turns out to be true, because I would love an excuse to see Andrew Garfield return as Spider-Man, even if it's not entirely his movie. Hell, I REALLY want to see how Toby, Andrew, and Tom's characters interact with each other, I feel like there's a ton of possibilities with such diverse versions of the same character. There's something to love from each era and iteration of the Web-head, and this era is no exception.

12:43 spiderman in real life. WITHOUT SPEECH HOLES

Aight boys, I think we are getting Turkish Spiderman!!! Please bring in the Snob to do that video with you.

*"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

At least spider-man actually moves around like a spider in this movie. Also the 3ds game absolutely slapped

"Let me go out on a limb I mean let me lend you a hand I mean I'd give my right hand to-" LOL

'tell Emilio I still know he exists' haha wow.
