The Home Trilogy - From Spider-Boy To Spider-Man 

If the Christmas background vanishes half way through the video, you're on the naughty list :)

Small detail about No Way Home that I really liked was when Aunt May tells Peter “with great power comes great responsibility” for the first time, Peter says “yeah, I know…” which I’m sure is a nod to him losing uncle Ben, and if you recall his line to Tony in Civil War “when you can do the things that I can, but you don’t, and then the bad things happen, they happen because of you.” Which means peter has always had these ideals. Just after everything he’s been through in his few years of being Spider-Man, he started to lose hope. He needed to be reminded at that moment who he is and why he does what he does by the woman who loved him the most

I don't mind Peter doing dumb shit, at his age I was doing the same stupid things. People forget that he's still a kiddo, not a grown "kid" like in the Raimi trilogy.

and the whole point of the third act of homecoming was peter trying to stop vulture without tonys tech/help and the whole point of far from home is about how peter learns that he doesnt need to be the next iron man and he decides to continue being spider man

IMO the Tom Holland home is one lowkey my favorite live action spidey movies. Tobey will always have a soft spot in my heart and SM2 will be the BEST spiderman movie to me, but I do like what they did with MCU spidey. He had such good character development by going from a kid eager to please Tony, his mentor/father figure. To being his own solo, capable Spider-Man. I know they aren’t perfect but neither are Tobeys or Andrews SM movies

I just wish the trilogy had more iconic Spider-Man moments, it lacks that Spider-Man feeling and just feels like another mcu character at times

I appreciate this video a lot. And I think you’re one of the few people who actually see through and understand what the studios were trying to do. Long term storytelling. Peter Parker was placed in a world full of superheroes and had powers so young. He wanted to find his place and know what to do. That superhero life was kind of introduced a bit soon when stark recruited him in civil war. So he became so overwhelmed by the superhero life and felt pressure to be like everyone else. This transitioned to homecoming when he was a 15 year old who learnt it was best to stay grounded. Far from home he learnt to not trust everyone blindly and that it’s time to be his own man after the death of stark, but things turned sideways when his identity was revealed and led into no way home. This caused his friends missing out on moving to college, and his reputation tainted. He made selfish but noble choices that led to alot of disarray when he went to doctor strange for a memory wipe. But he then learnt to accept accountability and repercussions for his decisions. He still feels guilty for the death of may because of his choices but now he knows that he can’t let another loved one die because of him. So he makes mj and Ned forget about him and move on without him to protect them. He now knows that with great power there must also come great responsibility, a lesson learnt by May. As long as he’s Spider-Man he’ll always have enemies and loved ones will always be at risk, so he lets them go and carries on with a newfound sense of freedom, “Peter Parker is no more, but Spider-Man lives on.”

i dont understand why people say that doctor strange was dumb in no way home when he clearly mentions that hes done it before just not with a person and he obviously didnt think it was a big deal and the only reason he failed was bc peter kept on adding names to remember his secret identity everytime strange was halfway done

I think why Spider-Man is my favorite even with all the characters in the Mcu is the mantle itself and what it means. He may not be the god of thunder, or the first avenger, or even captain Marvel. But his real power comes from always doing what’s right even when it feels like the hardest decision in the world. He sacrifices his own happiness for the better of the world and being that face to look up to for the little man. No matter how many heroes marvel introduces or how many villains go against them, when Spider-Man shows up he takes center stage.

Ngl, this has to be one of my favorite alternate takes on Peter Parker. Like, he's not exactly "comics accurate," but I love the way they made him work while still staying true to who Spider-man is as a character. One of my favorite parts about Spider-man is how many different interpretations of him that there are, and Mcu Spidey being my favorite movie version of him definitely shows that in a way.

The Thumbnail looks killer

Thanks for this video because I've been a fan of the home trilogy for as long as I can remember because It came out at a formative time In my life and it was nice to have a spider man that for lack of a better term grow up with me and i just feel so bad because so many people like to crap on this version of spider man saying his not "really" spider man he's IrOn BoY JUnIoR and I'm like dude spider man can be more than one thing there are many interpretations and just because you don't like one doesn't make him any less spider man just thought I'd throw that out there

I like to see tom Holland spider man before civil war

I hope you upload more i love all ur vids bro

idk anybody spotted this detail, but even in No Way Home, Norman's clean white teeth shows when Norman is in present. And Green Goblin's rotten a bit unbalanced teeth (which is real Willam Dafoe's teeth btw) show up when Goblin's present.

It really was a fun ride watching the home trilogy I remember seeing his first appearance in Civil War in my last semester in high school to watching No Way Home in my last semester in college

This guy deserves for subs!

I’m just hoping Spider-Man 4 to be good

Hated the Iron Man involvement. Should of been the opposite case where he is not even on the Avengers radar. Have him, still fresh from Uncle Ben's death want to be seen more as the hero he is instead of being under appreciated. But by the end of the trilogy he does not care aboht getting it, or even getting thanked for it. But save for Jamenson and his followers, he ironically gets the appreciation and grattitude of the city anyway And post credit scene reveals he gets the attention of Nick Fury and the Avengers as well. After his trilogy he starts to get more crossovers with the other heroes.

I live in England, so I’m going with the hot chocolate 🥶🥶🥶🥶

beautifully said man, absolute banger

Why is Toby in the thumbnail

It's a great movie, plenty of fun fanservice and it's great seeing the previous Spideys back, I hate its premise and the stupid decisions everyone makes throughout. Doctor Strange being an idiot at the start to kick it all off, not a fan of aunt May dying either, we could've had at least one happy-ish Spidey! And the ending is again really stupid. It would have been better if the spell was just to make everyone forget Peter was Spider-Man, that'd make sense, but it was to make everyone forget Peter ever existed which is...stupid. Guess magic also erased all his documentation and government details or whatever, that really took me out of the story...

I am not a fan of the MCU Spider-Man films don’t get me wrong. I love Tom Holland he played a good Spider-Man/Peter Parker but, the problem I have with the MCU Spider-Man is it just doesn’t feel like Spider-Man. It feels like an Iron Man junior film also spider-Man no way home is got to be one of the most overrated Spider-Man movies it’s good, but I don’t consider as a masterpiece.

ILL SAY IT, ILL FUCKING SAY IT I prefer Andrew Garfield's Peter, I don't think he was a bad Peter, and I am biased cus I was very similar to that depiction of Peter as a teen To me, Tom was too much of a child, he felt more like a 12yo than a 15/16yo and Tobey was wayyyy too awkward so I couldn't relate to him, and I think a lot of guys my age will agree that the whole being so awkward around girls that you cant even speak dosnt happen anymore

Nah my question is why Aunt May is a young lady like is it just for Happy

That thumbnail is extremely fanboyish bro.

Truthfully, I dislike the entire home trilogy and how the MCU treated Spider-Man and his lore. Honestly, I think it was a good idea on paper, but it was not good in practice.

I've enjoyed how Tom Holland's Spidey has developed over the years. I've found all three movies charming and in line with the character. No Way Home had a few odd moments, but there was plenty of great stuff too.

Small detail about the No Way Home classic suit, if you watch the credits animation sequence, you’ll notice it seems like Peter made drawings of Tobey and Andrew’s logos from memory. Which kind of confirms that he did indeed take inspiration from them for his spider logo and coverall look of his costume

13:45 The whole scene was "Something, something, math trick, something, something, Strange lose" to be honest, they could've though the scene better.

I loved how at the end you dissected WHY Tony meant so much to Peter in the first place. I recall a certain youtuber whose name may rhyme with “Troyoboyo17” cited that Peter idolized Tony BECAUSE he was a billionaire which ???? I notice the MCU’s take kinda makes Spider-Man fans insane, so I’m glad theres a video like this that isn’t in ridiculously bad faith lol. The mcu’s take is one of my favorites because the writers took advantage of the Cinematic Universe’s long-form storytelling to endear us to the character and slowly raise the stakes and seriousness. Peter’s choice to unperson himself meant so much because ever since 2016, we’ve *seen* the growth, we’ve seen how much he’s been through. In a way its sort of like the Harry Potter movies lmao

Ah yes, the home trilogy a trilogy worth watching

i mean if stan lee himself said toms spiderman was the vision he had for him years ago then i think tom is the most accurate peter😭

9:31 I dunno if im wrong or not but i appreciate the detail there of Peters Business suit being all ruffled up there...nice attention to detail based on the circumstance of the scene

I personally liked Tom Holland Spider-Man I thought his journey was super heartfelt and interesting in my opinion.

Meh none of his films did it for me the way the past 2 series have. Hate how he is written after civil war. That was literally the only amazing tom scene imo. J Homecoming was ok even if spidey was written as a bumbling idiot compared to civil war. Far from home was dookie and no way home was mid. No way home had some good stuff but even the good parts are ridden with issues. THIS IS MY OPINION DO NOT ATTACK ME. i respect your opinion though amazing spider dude. Lets just agree to disagree lol. Love your videos btw!!! Got into the channel a few weeks ago!!!

Also if you haven't watched implicitly pretentiouses videos on MCU spider man including his "defense of MCU spider man video it pretty much takes down every bad criticism of the character it's a pretty good video even if i don't agree with all of his points

While No Way Home did a lot to tie the narrative together in a way that lent credence to the previous films, I still find it a baffling decision to set Spider-Man's origin back so much that it took 5 years and 6 films to get to us to a Spider-Man that stood for the same values he always did in previous iterations.

All 3 movies are great (homecoming is easily the best though), but it feels like Peter goes through the same arc in each movie to some degree

Oooo

Bro, you’re the greatest, please know that your content is the greatest and I love it, currently watching you and reading comics has got me to pass army basic training at 17, thank you!

2 year later and the movie is stil lthe best film what a time to be alive boys

15:00 this scene in the cinema was like tripping balls bro whole thing felt so off

Ok your reaction to the reveal of Spider-Man was probably the first time I was actually invested in the mcu……. And really the only reason I’m sticking with them

the movie takes place in Late October Early November and ends in December

Wow terrific video! You really summarized why I liked this trilogy so much as well.

4:30 during infinity war were Peter died 8 was crying sooooooo much

Superhero fans are always so impatient
