WATCHING SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING FOR THE FIRST TIME REACTION/ COMMENTARY | MCU 

To answer your confusion about Peter’s powers, Monica. In most comics and cartoons, Peter was bitten by a genetically enhanced spider, granting him his powers. But he usually has to build a set of mechanical web shooters and mix a special web fluid himself. Only the first film series changed it to giving him organic webs

That post-credit scene with Cap is still the best trolling I've ever seen

I love how Tom's managed to so royally screw up that Monica doesn't know anything about him but knows he's known for spoiling movies 😂😂

His face when she thought the Spider-Man song was made for the Simpsons movie killed me

The thing is Monica, because there's already been 2 Spidermen before Tom Holland, they didn't focus on the backstory really, but he was still bitten by a spider the only thing is he doesn't have his own webs naturally from his body he has to make them. (which if I'm not mistaken is actually more comic book accurate)

Vulture was described as a “poor man’s Tony Stark” in this film. Love the parallels between him and Stark (like the POV shot when he has his mask on etc)

You’re definitely right about Tom Holland (actor that plays spider-man). He’s known for spoilers. As a result, they don’t allow him to read the entire scripts anymore😂. Also he’s not allowed in an interview without someone else being their to prevent him from spoiling. It’s honestly really funny

I like that the “come on Spider-Man” lifting of the rubble was straight from a classic comic panel.

51:32 Actually Peter is stronger than a super soldier and even more than a Black Panther, he held Bucky's metal arm like it was nothing and still had time to admire as Bucky tried to pull back

The street vendor is also in Shang-Chi. On the bus, Klev! XD Just realised that now

A great little detail is that Peter's suit AI, Karen, is voiced by Jennifer Connelly, who happens to be married to Paul Bettany (lucky assholes the both of them), who was Tony's suit AI before becoming Vision. I always assumed he was like, "dude, you can literally pull your paycheck in your pajamas. I'll get them to give you the role."

Vulture in this film is probably the most relatable villain. Dude was working a job, only for Stark and government drones to come in, put him out of work and Tony gets dibs on all the tech so he just become richer with an even bigger monopoly on stuff. Was 100% for Vulture.

6:44 He did get bitten by a spider.... but Marvel didn't show it in this movie. This is because there have been two other spider-man played by 2 different actors. In these two, they showed how he got bitten, etc. But here they didn't show it again cuz it will be repetitive, each time we will see the same thing all over again and again. By this time everyone knows he got bitten and how he got his powers... I think it was the right move not to show these things again.

Nice fact: The hand salute beetween Peter and Ned is actually a refference to the Avengers, every hand move represent one of them (Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Black Widow and Hawkeye)

@33:56 Aaron Davis is Miles Morales’ uncle aka The Prowler. He even tells Spider-Man that he has a nephew that lives in the neighborhood.

Rewatching Homecoming is such a treat, it also provides a great contrast in terms of tone from this movie to how more dramatic No Way Home is

Cheee!!! I can't wait for them to watch No Way Home. Also the post credit scene with Cap, I watched it in the cinema, someone shouted "Screw you, Cap" then someone answered "Language!". The whole theater just shared a good laugh. 😂

Guys I hope you enjoy the reaction, if you’ve seen the new Spider-Man hope you all enjoyed that too…Just so you guys know, because of copyright issues we’re further back on RU-vid than Patreon we just finished doing s1 of Wanda vision, so those saying watch the OG trilogy and the two other spider man movies before NWH we will, but heads up we have watched Far from Home, I’ve also started solo reactions to the X-men so yeah quite allot has happened.

The 8 years later thing is actually a mistake. The Battle of New York took place in 2012 and this movie takes place in 2016. That's what ya get when a studio other than Marvel is in control of a movie that's set in the MCU.

He was still bitten by a spider, but the MCU follows the comics more closely than the old Sam Rammy movies; the powers he got from the bite were super strength, wall climbing and a nearly psychic sense of danger. Just as in the comics, in the MCU Peter needs to create the webs himself instead of always having them as part of his body

The best thing about what Stark said to Peter about how he shouldn’t have the suit if he’s nothing without it is such a perfect call back to Iron Man 3 where he use to be nothing without his suit but he learned to become someone without it. Tony is always learning and always evolving

42:17 I love how they didnt even notice vulture was Liz,s dad for a second they got collectively shocked when they realised

I've never facepalmed so hard at the Spider-Pig moment lol

They’re getting really close to Infinity War and Endgame, and Ragnarok’s next...can’t wait

In the comics Spider-Man is bit by a radioactive spider which gives him his super strength, spider senses, and stickiness, but he always makes his webs artificially to tie in how smart he is scientifically. The early Spider-Man movies changed that up a bit by having that Peter Parker (played by Tobey Maguire) develop the ability to shoot webs out of his wrists. That’s not exactly comic book accurate tho.

Stan Lee's favorite superhero of all time is: Spider-Man. Also Jon Waitts the Director of the Spider-Man trilogy will direct his first Fantastic Four movie in the future.

A spider can lift 170x their weight, and if Peter has inherited a spider's powers, he could lift about 25000 pounds, roughly translating to 12.5 ton. But in the comics it has been proven he can lift up to 100-300 tons if under extreme conditions. - googled

He was still bitten by a spider, but he actually makes his web fluid/shooters, which is comic accurate.

The "8 years later" thing was a mistake, it's actually been 5 years since the events of Avengers 1 to Spider-man Homecoming

The Cap Trolling was EPIC! You are sitting there in the theater, upset, but at the same time laughing inside on Marvel pulling a fast one on us, and with CAP, not Deadpool.

I waited. The whole end credits. Bouncing from one leg to the other, I needed to GO so bad. I never laughed so hard while also feeling so incredibly cheated. Felt like Disney was personally trolling me.

Peter got bit by a spider but his web shooters are technology, the one where he doesn’t need his web shooters is in the 2002 Spider Man and very comic book inaccurate, which is why they changed it to the technology ones. Aside from the web shooter all of Peter’s powers came from the spider.

The final credit was just Marvel trolling the audience who had sat there waiting😅

So Monica he was bitten by a spider. He gained superhuman strength, sticky fingers and toes, durability, speed, spider sense, being able to jump really far and other stuff from the bite. He developed the web shooters thou. That’s comic book accurate. In the raimi trilogy, starring Toby maguire, the spider bite also gave him the power to shoot organic webs from his wrists so he didn’t need to make web shooters

Karen is voiced by Jennifer Connelly - a nice meta Marvel twist since in real life Connelly is married to Paul Bettany who is the voice of Jarvis (and now plays Vision!!). So the husband and wife play the two AI!

Peter was bitten by a spider, it gave him, among other things, super strength, endurance, speed and agility, spider sense or sticking to walls, but also in comics his nets did not come from his body but were produced by launchers made by him. Only in the series of films by Sam Raimi he had an organic network, which was a nice idea for the director, but in the original, i.e. in comics, spiderman had a net from a launcher and the bite gave him the powers I mentioned earlier

6:48 Spiderman traditionally has mechanical web shooters, but because they gave him organic webs in the first Spiderman trilogy with Tobey Maguire in 2002-2007, everyone incorrectly assumes Spiderman normally has organic webs. But yes, this Spiderman did get bit by a spider, no we are not going to see it done on a movie screen for the 3rd time, and yes he has super strength, wall climbing, agility, etc.

In case you didn't know the comics and cartoons Tombs is called Vulture. the guy working for him with the blasters on his arms is called Shocker, the making his equipment is called the Tinkerer and the guy he was talking to in jail is called Scorpion.

Omg you two are a laugh! I love watching your reactions together. You bounce off each other so well and it's just a joy to watch. Love how Monica dismisses the reveal of MJ at the end 😂 Rico's reactions was mine.

Absolutely cackling about the Spider-Pig shout-out. 🤣 Edit: Monica definitely showing her youth there.

As much as I love Tom Holland's spidey, I kinda wish that this wasn't their first experience with the character. I feel like Maguire or Garfield's spidey would've been a better introduction to Spider-Man for them. This version is very different and sometimes feels like he isn't his own hero without Iron Man or the rest of the Avengers.

I love the fact that we didn’t get the background information about Spider-Man again. We’ve already seen it many times before. It would have been a waste of time. This movie was so refreshing.

Lol at that delayed reaction to Liz’s dad

Monica's I don't care about MJ was so funny 😂😂

8:31 ... Be sure to rmember that guy for Shang-Chi.

I waited for that last end credit scene in theaters and I thought it was legit hilarious. Perfect joke imo. I did feel bad for the theater staff though >_> Also I’m so glad y’all had a good time overall despite being stressed 😆

3:36 I got so excited the first time I heard the remix of the old spider-man theme in the intro. They did that to celebrate the return of spider-man. As for who produced and owns Spider-Man it actually makes things more complicated. That movie (and the other movies of the home trilogy) are produced by Disney/Marvel *but* Sony still has the rights to the Spider-verse properties so...a lot happened with artistic licenses, changes, fights between companies etc., before they settled with the arrangement they have now (it was decided between the movies Far From Hone and No Way Home). Back in the day, I'm pretty sure that was why Sony made The Amazing Spider-man in the first place. It was right after the success of The Avengers and felt Marvel would want the rights to spider-man back if they weren't using them. So they made TAS 1, and then TAS2. But then TAS 2 did poorly, and Marvel/Disney didn't wait for Sony to stop their use of spider-man before getting in talks to get the rights. So the first appearance of Spider-man in the MCU universe (in Civil War) coincided with the year The Amazing Spider-man 3 would've come out. Right now both Sony & Disney/Marvel are heavily cooperating to produce the spider-man (and other spider-verse) movies, almost coproducing them.

Peter Parker’s teacher Mr. Harrington actually made his first MCU debut in The Incredible Hulk as a college student at Culver University.

When in the comics dr Otto Octavious got his mind transfered into peter parkers body and tried to fight. He punched the face off someone and realised that spiderman had always been holding back his strenght when he fought people or else he could kill most of his (super)enemies with 1 punch.

By the way Spider-man is one of the strongest characters in Marvel, he is even stronger than Captain America and has beaten the Hulk in a 1 vs 1 match.

i personally love homecoming so much, it's so enjoyable and rewatchable. tom's spiderman is my first spidey and he introduced me to marvel and the mcu... you'll love far from home and no way home!!!

I love Zendaya as Michelle MJ, but i still kinda hoped Liz would come back, as being Vulture's daughter, she's easily candidate to become the hero Starling.

Guys started with Harry Potter now I am all over your channel binged watched all of them💙❤️

'the other guy has weapons' 'not on him' Rico, he literally had a gun in his hand ^^

Peter was bitten by a spider, and it gave him the proportionate strength of a spider (spiders being able to lift 137 times their weight), enhanced reflexes, the ability to stick to most surfaces, and the ability to sense danger to him (the spider sense). His webs were not part of that. He built the web shooters and makes the web fluid to stick to the theme of spiders

I really like how the Spider-Man movie is more or less like a continuation of Tony Stark's story, his legacy.

The next one, Thor Ragnarok is my favorite mcu movie, can't wait for your reactions.

What? No the Spider-Man theme song has been around since 1967 which was 22 years before The Simpsons even debuted as a show and 40 years before the movie was released

I waited for the very last end credit scene in theaters and it was actually hilarious lmao everyone else that also stayed laughed so hard. It was great😂😂

The last post credits scene is still the funniest post credits scene to date in my opinion😂I still remember being in theatres and realizing Marvel took advantage of all the people in the theatre including myself and trolled us. This movie is the most nostalgic for me of the Home trilogy

“Good ol spiderman” best line of the movie🥶

At 8:11 , Monica doesn't realize that New York is nothing like London with its cameras everywhere. Cameras are mostly used by private companies on their private buildings. It's very rare to find government regulated cameras in any major city.

I can see you guys getting to Endgame rather quickly. Can't wait for IW and Endgame.

Loved the reaction. Still got a long road ahead cant wait 😃

I'm binge watching your venture through the MCU and you guys have me cracking up, keep up the good work!!!

On the comment about Peter being caught on CCTV in the alley, in the US, even major cities don't have CCTV in many places. The places that do have it are privately owned and really only accessed in the event of a crime.

Little Easter egg: Childish Gambino in this movie plays Aaron Davis. The 'nephew' he is referring to, is Miles Morales. I just found out about this the other day :)

The other version of Spider-Man were Adults in high school, reacting like adults, who should not have been in high school. This is Spider-Man as a teenager, being Spider-Man.

Just to say there are other Spider-Man films it'd be interesting viewing experience to check those out.

Fun fact, the voice of Karen, in the spider suit, is Jennifer Conolly, married to Paul Bettany, the voice of Jarvis.

lol I waited in the theatre, and that Captain America scene was hilarious xD

After you guys reach the 3rd one.....you guys will be mind blown by spideys arch and growth.

monica singing Spider-pig song was the best lol

To clear up another piece of Monica's confusion about the classic Spiderman theme.....in 1966, there was a cartoon series about Spiderman. The theme song for that cartoon was this tune with the words "Spiderman! Spiderman! Does whatever a Spider can!....". That theme song has been parodied or snipped into various incarnations of the character ever since. That is where the "Spider Pig" theme that she remembers came from. Just like, when you watch the Robert Downey Ironman movie and Rhodey calls him on HIS cell phone.....that ring tone is the theme from the 1966 Ironman cartoon.

When you're feeling stressed try a stress ball to squeeze. The problem with Peter is he never listens to advice when it's given and only after it has been proven. Peter is perpetually the little kid that puts his finger in the fire after he is told not to cause it will hurt but ignores the advice and does it anyway except he just never learns to ever take the advice first ever.

I love how vulture, Michael Keaton, threatens Peter in the car before the dance bc spiderman is so INCREDIBLY strong and could easily rip his arms off or the car doors and beat him to death but he doesn't bc he's a good and moral man. He's soooo powerful but it's bridled power and that's the scariest of all, cuz once it's let loose, good night to anyone in his way. That's part of what makes spiderman such an amazing character bc he pulls his punches knowing he could kill someone with a single punch. Love his relationship with Iron Man too. Top 2 favorite marvel characters

Please also watch all the other Spider-Man movies if you have time

Spider-Man Is the best!

You guys are amazing, please keep doing this, you guys make a super great couple by the way lol.

Little Fun Fact: The little kid in Iron Man 2 at the Stark Expo with the Iron Man helmet is young Peter Parker.

“Do you wanna be a high school dropout?”👀😬

Cop: You were going 35 miles per hour over the speed limit. Monica: *Don't care about any of that.*

I have to say, this one of the best reactions channel, great job 👏🏻 guys

Yeah so getting bit by the Spider gives Peter the superhuman physicality, spider stickiness and spider sense. The web was always something Peter created on his own in the comics(The first Spiderman movie with Tobey Maguire changed that in its story). Also, about how strong Peter is in the comics. Spiderman is so strong that he has to dodge(its easy for him as well because he knows what's coming because of the spider sense and his lightning fast reflexes) when fighting human criminals. If he doesn't dodge and the criminals hit him, they would shatter their own bones. Peter also holds back a lot when fighting otherwise he would kill humans with a single punch. In the comics Spiderman has, on his own, defeated a whole team of X men and also defeated the Fantastic Four. Peter has also defeated/stopped Hulk(granted not stopped the extremely angry planetary level hulk) a few times as well. Peter can split apart buildings and tank missiles. There's a lot more stuff in comics. Spiderman is kind of "The hero" in Marvel comics. Yes, there is Captain America and Iron Man or Thor and universal/space things, Avengers and all but its like when we talk about DC its Superman or Batman. For marvel it has always been Spiderman. Avengers became more popular because of the MCU.

Been waiting all week less goo💪

Funny you just posted this now on RU-vid because I just saw Spider-Man: No Way Home for the 2nd time. I did not expect coming on here and seeing this reaction, LOL! Great timing! The only thing about this movie each time I see it that "bothers" me is both Tony and Happy are pretty much total jerks to Peter almost the entire movie. If anything, Peter was the one actually trying to be responsible and trying to inform Tony and Happy, who could have cared less. By the way, it was admitted years later after this movie that the dates given at the start of this movie was wrong and does not really match up quite right with the timeline of other events, which actually spawned off a bunch of cool fan theories on how the dates actually might be correct but the timeline itself was messed with. Ultimately, however, somebody just messed up. If you guys have not already done so, watch all the other previous Sony Spider-Man movies. That will help catch-up with a good chunk of the lore. There are also a few references made in this movie to those movies. Though, the cartoons cover a lot more of the lore. obviously. I love that Monica brought up the point those criminals who were in the school do not know who Peter is. I always ask that myself whenever I see this movie going, "Why you hiding? They don't know who you are". LOL! By the way, if nobody told you yet on here, the nephew that lives here in NY of that criminal Spidey interrogated is a reference to Miles Morales. The whole tension in that car between Liz's dad and Peter was priceless and great acting!

Your reactions are very good. Monica really does see a lot before it happens. The plot twist was excellently foreshadowed. The execution of the reveal scene was perfect. This is the best ending of any super hero movie ever. Love that you got the joke from the Captain America end credit sequence.

The end credit scene guy asking vulture if he knew who spiderman is, he's vaas from farcry 3. One of the most iconic bad guys of all time.

I've been watching Marvel reactions for close to 10 years now and the Spider-Pig back and forth has got to be in my top 5 moments hahahahaha

I love ur reaction so much.. I really hope u post more going forward...

i did not remember this movie being this good

24:29 because he tried telling both Happy and Tony once each, and Happy completely interupted him and didn't even let him explain and Tony basically just told him "not my problem". (He did not tell Peter he was calling the FBI, not that the FBI could handle the situation alone in the first place, they'd be outgunned.)

Of course he got bit by a spider, how else does he have super strength, can crawl up walls, super reflexes and is so agile

Just read that Spriderman has the strength to not only survive a HULK attack, but to take him down as well. Confirmed by Marvel, too.

U guys will want to watch Tobey and Andrew’s Spider-Man movies before no way home

The end credits scene about patience was also a reference to Infinity War and the massive hype monster that had already built up. Cap was lampshading the concern that it couldn't live up to expectations. Thankfully it was awesome. Also, I always wonder if the sabotaged press conference at the end is a reference to how Andrew Garfield got fired as Spiderman because he didn't show up to the 'new spiderman' announcement for Amazing Spiderman 3.

That dude asking Spiderman to do the backflip, I think he is in shang chi in the bus shooting the video.

Love u guys, don’t forget to watch the previous Spider-Man movies before watching Spider-Man No Way Home

The dude who he webbed to a car, Aaron, from the comics is the prowler and his “nephew he has here” is another spiderman! My personal favorite from the ultimate universe 1610, named miles morales!

Can't wait for you guys to one day get to No Way Home!
