1:30 Citric: *Do you know how crazy people get if that backdrop changes?*
That a funny line.
Do MCU months!
Review The Simpsons Movie (2007)
Could there be a Nostalgia Critic review of Bushwhacked (1995)?
9:18 jo is that a spider crawling down behind
Fun fact, in an earlier draft, Peter gladly gives Harry his blood, making it HIS fault that his friend went bad and his girlfriend died.
That actually sounds kinda cool. In a messed up tragic way ofc lol
That would've been better
Something I “drunkenly” yelled out while watching this crap in theaters - I didn’t realize that it was supposed to be what happened! It would’ve fit the motif that Peter always ends up hurting the ones he loves while trying to be helpful to someone else.
See, that would have been good. Though it also deserves to be the focus of it's own movie and not crammed into one with a different super villain. Someone like the Green Goblin needs at least one movie to build up in the background before making him the focus. At least if you're doing this whole connected universe thing.
Better story
To think they were ALSO going to introduce Mary Jane AND reveal that Peter's dad was still alive.
Didn't Andrew Garfield want MJ to be Michael B Jordan or something like that?
Oppa Kunn yes but shailene woodly was supposed to play the role
It’s like an entire Spider-Man trilogy crammed into one
I bet my left foot there would’ve been some kind of twist that revealed that old Richard Parker was actually Chameleon
Some supermovies suffer from too many villains. This one thought "DAH LET'S JUST THROW THE WHOLE COMICS LINE IN THERE!"
"Electro looks nothing like he does in the comic."
*laughs in Ultimate Universe.
And if I'm not mistaken, Rhino from the Ultimate Universe was just a guy with a big cyber suit like the one from this movie only more animal like and weaponized
He means the mainstream comics.
The only good things to come out of the Ultimate universe were Miles Morales and the Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury callout (seriously, the series name-dropped him before the Avengers series, though we sadly did not get Steve Buscemi Bruce Banner).
@@blakehooper1787 you mean thankfully
@Fred Anthony to be fair, they barely showed him in motion in the suit, and hell, that's probably a prototype all things considered, I mean it's not like rhino had much time... actually, imagine seeing rhino evolve his suit over a movie franchise ala iron man but focusing on pure ground combat, that would be awesome, seriously, they should have taken more time with that movie so that we could see wether or not rhino had another suit in the works.
Harry kinda has the “emo Peter” hair
carsisbest that why he is emo harry
You mean the same hair every white guy had between 2005 to 2014
The Unknown Psycho so true
The Unknown Psycho Why do you need to refer specifically to white men? Is that some kind of passive aggressive racist attack?
carsisbest There's nothing "Emo" about Peter in Slider-Man 3. People clearly still don't understand what an Emo is.
This movie is what killed my trust in trailers, the shot of Spidey fighting the Rhino in a badass starting a badass action sc-- *cuts straight to credits*
Oh I HATED that so much. What a huge ripoff that was!
I know!! I had waited the entire movie for that scene and when it came and ended the actual movie, I was super angry.
I can't believe we lost a movie starring crazy russian Paul Giammatti to see a bad perfomance by Jamie Foxx with a even worse written character
Well, my trust in trailers was dead since Iron Man 3. And TASM2 digged it deeper.
Driver is my personal favorite BS trailer of all time. They advertised it like it was the next fast and furious movie lol If you've ever seen Driver that's not just misleading it's a straight up lie ;p
Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a perfect example of Sony not learning their lesson from Spider-Man 3 and cramming every story into one.
I they no want to do a Mysterio and Kraven solo film.
This could have been better. I just liked the action scenes.
@You Wish I don't disagree that SM3 built up the storylines. I thought it was well done until they did two additions like Eddie and Gwen where it started to feel a little overstuffed. Even if Eddie wasn't done well, they at least gave him a clear motive for revenge. Gwen felt shoehorned. I also wasn't a fan of the amnesia story since it's a lame plot device. I didn't hate SM3, but I definitely disliked ASM and ASM2.
Spider-Man 3 looks like Spider-Man 2 or Far From Home in comparison to this.
2deep4u?
Fun Fact: When they weren't shooting scenes for the film, Andrew Garfield went around New York City, dressed as Spiderman, and played basketball with local kids! ❤
I knew I love this dude.
That's so wholesome. Those kids must've had the time of their lives.
I love him. You can straight up tell he's a real one.
Just re-watched this and I like to think Andrew Garfield watched this and took Critic's words to heart. Then he went out there and absolutely nailed it in No Way Home to the point Sony is considering The Amazing Spider-Man 3.
I watched no way home in theaters with my good friend and I felt heart pangs but in a good way when Andrew caught mj and redeemed himself in his eyes. Even if they don’t make more Garfield and Maguire spidey movies, this felt like the book end they deserved that we hadn’t gotten.
Electro actually looks a lot like the Ultimate version of himself.
I think Ultimate version was inspired by this movie
Desmond Malone no the ultimate version came out in I think the early 2000s
Uh no, the Ultimate version was around way before this. I remember him from the Ultimate Spider Man game which came out in like 2005.
@@desmondmalone438 that wouldn't be possible
@@thedoif2540 actually yes. Ultimate Spiderman came out in 2005. Electro was completely blue, no clothing, and featureless besides his electricity sparks on his body when he was full charged up. However when not using his powers, he was a white completely bald man with a long sleeve black shirt that had the shape of a lightning bolt cut in the neckline, extremely similar to what he wore in the movie. The movie combined his Ultimate normal look and fully charged look
Easy fix to the scene where Peter tells Harry he can't have his blood
"So, we had an incident not long ago with a guy who did basically the same thing, but he turned into a giant psychotic lizard. I do NOT want to take the, let's be honest, 99% chance you'll turn into a giant psychotic spider."
But if he did we could have had a Non-Peter Man-Spider.
That would have made so much sense!
I think that's honestly where my mind went when I saw that scene
There are several ways he couldn't elaborated on his position. The fact Peter did nothing to explain himself is lazy writing.
Or, you know...
"My blood is radioactive. With underlying health problems and a compromised immune system, you could very well die of radiation poisoning."
Or perhaps more simply
"If something as small as our blood types not matching comes up, you could contract several more problems than we cure."
Coronavirus puts the world at a standstill:
"Eh, we got Animal Crossing AND Persona 5 Royal. We'll be just fine."
NC's wall is a different color:
" *HIT THE PANIC BUTTON!!! IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!!!* "
Calvin Black We’ve still got Final Fantasy VII Remake as well.
@@jbcatz5 and DOOM Eternal
Ghost of Tsushima and Last of Us Part 2 are also right around the corner
It's not a different color it's the ORIGINAL color :D
And the RE3 remake comes out in 2-3 days (can't remember if it said April 3rd or April 4th)
I love that Harry assumes that just cause Peter takes Spider-Man’s pictures that,that means that Peter somehow automatically knows Spider-Man.
That always bothered me...
To be fair, the same goes for the original films.
Isn’t that what the goblin did in the original?
I mean he’s the only one who’s able to constantly get quality pictures of the guy, so it’s reasonable to think if you follow Parker you’ll find the spider
@@twilightrocketeer4840 yeah, and it was stupid in that one too.
Some people have mentioned this before, but Electro's design was based off his appearance in the Ultimate comics, just wanted another voice to shed some light on it
While the blue skin and pure energy form are accurate, the suit looks like nothing from the comics and is quite bland.
And isn't the Ultimate line pretty much dead, with the surviving characters like Miles Morales and... The Maker (Reed Richards) in Earth 616?
@@battlion507 Like a lot of Ultimate Marvel fans, I stopped reading it after Ultimatum. I'm surprised the universe kept going for any significant period of time after that.
What was his human persona based off of, Dwayne Dibley from Red Dwarf?
AnimatorBrian _notyet it was except it's poorly done
I get a strange “the room” vibe with Harry in this movie. Like when he says he’s dying I just think of “ I got the results of the test back. I definitely have breast cancer”
I did not hit her i did not,oh hi mark
You're tearing me apart, Spider-Man!
Spiderman you acting like a chicken,cheep cheep cheep cheeeeeeep
That's what It felt like harry's character feels a bit like tommy wiseau
Anyways, how is your sex life?
Electro: "I'll be a god to them."
Spider-Man: "A God named sparkles?!"
Hi midnight club still cancelled soz
Sup, Dtt159!
Sparkle Sparkle Sparkle
wstine79 Sparkle, sparkle, sparkle!
@@MidnightClubStillCancelledSoz Wait Jerry? What are you doing here? also I miss you from the Blackphantaa server
There’s a small a VERY SMALL part of me that wished they made a third one these just to see how it would’ve been
Peter would have cloned Captain Stacy, and other people who had died. It sounded really dumb, and like Webb had even less control than the first two films
It was supposed to be about the Sinister Six since they teased Doc Oc's arms, Vulture's wings, and of course Rhino himself
@The Eyes Of A True Demon- Anomaly Productions hahahaha..... no.
@The Eyes Of A True Demon- Anomaly Productions Are you mixing that up with the rumors of Maguire and Garfield returning for the MCU?
@Brandon Brooks well........ you didn't see the execution.... Maybe it would have been good... But yeah the concept sounds really bad. But do you have a source?
Hey Critic, hope everyone is ok. Your reviews are the best part of Wednesdays.
We are doing fine! Stay safe!!
@@ChannelAwesome sure thing keep up the great work
@@ChannelAwesome good choice to get the old backdrop back. well, not get back, per say, more like spending a long-ass time painting the backdrop to look as perfect and accurate to the old critic's backdrop as humanely possible... sheez. i made that a little too intense.
Luis Valenzuela now they’re the only part of Wednesday’s!
I think they deleted my reply, it was a joke guys
I was low key expecting this whole video to be an april fool's joke
Same. Lmao
Same here.
Jaxson Shoemaker same
Until a minute after we saw Critic glitching out, I legit thought it was.
On a related note, does that mean adult swim will play The Room tonight, or Saturday night?
It's almost like this movie was directed by 8 different people.
"LET'S DISCUSS THE 20 DIFFERENT PLOTS THIS MOVIE HAS!!" -ralphthemoviemaker, 2014
@He-Man ! He hates DC now a days! He even hated Joker because people including critics and fans liked it.
@He-Man ! Why doesn't he enjoy superhero movies again? I don't watch him that often.
I blame Avi Arad
🖕🏾🐻🖕🏾
who is ralph and why do so many people seem to give a fuck what he says
I completely forgot Black Cat was in this movie.
Carlos Lopez-Ortega
Oh I’m blaming Sony alright. I love Black Cat. If there’s one thing I want in the MCU (besides seeing my fanfic hero in a movie) is seeing the relationship between Spider-Man and Black Cat. If they went that route we could see Spider-Man trying to juggle two relationships, his school life, and his superhero life.
And she's Felicity Jones! She would've been fantastic.
Its ok, so did the movie
Most people wouldn’t know it was Black Cat if they weren’t aware of her real name
And she was already so fucking hot. In the catsuit she would have killed
Whose the villain: Electro, Green Goblin, Rhino, the high power business man, or the masked figure?
Movie: Yes
None the villain was venom
You forgot the creepy German mental asylum doctor
najhoant wait did that German scientists die? Actually I don’t care nvm
You forgot an another, very important villain: Sony!
Oh. When he said "The Worst Spiderman Movie" last week, I just assumed Turkish Spiderman.
Nah, man. ITALIAN Spider-Man. However bad you think it is, I guarantee it is worse.
Is that even a real thing?
@@legoking6165 Idk about Italian, but Turkish Spiderman 100% is real. Captain America and a Wrestler have to team up to beat evil Spiderman.
Cinema Snob covered it once long in the past I believe.
I was hoping for Italian Spiderman
I thought either this movie or the Japanese Spider-Man Strikes Back
Fun Fact: There was a completely cut scene that would have made Gwen's death more impactful.
Ok, so Gwen dies and Peter starts crying his eyes out, the scene that was cut out would have then included Harry waking up from unconsciousness and look down to see Peter in distraught over Gwen's death, which would have been followed by Harry laughing at Peter's misery. This would then piss Pete off so much that he climbs back up and beats the living shit out of Harry, nearly killing him.
Imagine, the shock value that would have made Gwen's death work would have been solved simply by this scene. But as we all know, some dumb asses decided to completely scrap it even after it was filmed. It's not even in the deleted scenes section of the movie's bonus features, there's only photos online.
Yeah, Harry even asks Peter to kill him since he's dying anyway but Peter stops, in shame, and puts his mask back on as police sirens begin to sound outside the clocktower.
What I wouldn't give to see that scene in it's entirety.
all the good scenes in this movie were cut
The people who made this movie (except Mark Webb): "Actual emotional impact? What are you, crazy?"
can you send a link? I don't think I've see it
Jim Carrey - a former "in living color" star who plays a nerd who idolizes the hero, gets turn down, then turns into the villain stricken with revenge
Jamie Foxx - a former "in living color" star who plays a nerd who idolizes the hero, gets turn down, then turns into the villain stricken with revenge
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
They also both have giant mechanical rhino suits.
Is Jamie Foxx gonna be Gannondorf?
What the fuck is in living color!?
@@astrowolvez Found the Zoomer! It was a sketch comedy show similar to Saturday Night Live from back in the early '90s. I really liked it.
Also Norman Osborne lived with the disease for decades, without his son's knowledge, yet Harry is now dying after a few days.
PLOT TWIST!
In an earlier draft norman was supposed to mention a late stage symptom of the disease that he notices Harry has.
Reminds me of Smallville season 3 where Lionel Luther had fatal liver disease that he lived with for decades that was miraculous cured by something in Clark's blood in season 4.
Thought: while Peter is reaching for Gwen, keep the triumphant music going, thinking she'll survive. But then you hear the crack, and everything stops: the music stops, Peter's face changes from relief to horror as he realizes everything has gone wrong. It would have been way more gut wrenching.
This version would have been SO much better!
@@memeboi6942 snowflake
wouldn't have worked everyone knows Gwen dies in the comics. And since there was also the green goblin around.... yeah, no. I personally didn't know about Gwen's death at the time, but if I knew a bit about the character, I would have known.
@Zombified Pariah how...
@Zombified Pariah It can also be used for drama, not just comedy.
I still think Gwen's death scene is one of the more powerful moments this movie had to offer. I remember seeing it in theaters (I was a teenager at the time) and I was bawling my eyes out. Gwen has always been my favorite spider gal and to see one of the best Spider-Man comic book scenes come to life, it really hit me hard.
I need to rewatch this movie, but THAT SCENE, I remind it very well because it completely broke my heart.
Were you also holding up Batman at gun point and demanding that Superman reserves time?
"Bet you never saw this coming, Spidey."
"It's YOU who never saw this coming, Electry... SEE THIS COMING LIKE A PERSONA REFERENCE!!"
GODSPEED SPIDER-MAN.
Aux Knife - you’ll never see it coming
That made me laugh harder than it had any right too 😂
Supposedly, the 3rd film was scrapped when Garfield left Sonys CEO hanging at a Spiderman 2 press conference. That was the last straw for Sony after Spiderman 2 didn't perform so well.
Lol, looked it up. It was actually a press conference in Rio de Janiero anouncing Spiderman 3. He was "sick" after the long flight. It came out after the Sony hack.
They could have stick with Tobey maquire because Tobey maquire was the perfect Peter Parker
Hates Mondays and loves Lasagna
Oooooooh I thought you meant that he LITERALLY hanged Sony’s CEO by his neck. Gotcha!
KingPrintmaker also there was the Sony hacks
"The ONLY one to get A ROTTEN SCORE!"
"That's only from people who like movies."
"That doesn't help..."
And somehow the Disney Spiderman movies get a pass...
As in the MCU films? But those are good movies.
*only from boomers who hate cinema
Okay that's from people who hate movies
@@kaedynbrandt5181 "That somehow makes it worse!" :(
23:39 I really did think AG did a good job with this scene & after watching No Way Home it feels a lot better. AG's acting can have a lot of weight behind it & I think both scenes were on the spot.
To be fair, Bruce giving his cousin his Hulk-filled blood is what gave us Marvel’s answer to DC’s Power Girl
Marvel's answer to Power Girl who fought a giant plate of spaghetti in her comic, you mean?
@@michaelthomas5433 Yes? Maybe? I don't know the full details of She-Hulk and how she came to be.
@@michaelthomas5433 think the thing that keeps getting over looked when looking back at stuff like that was that the ideal "man" pictured in theis comics weren't that 3D eather. also comics were 100% marketed towards boys, and its not really a revelation that girls aint that into stories about brute fighting.
It does sound weird tho.
And then the comic writers decided she should go woke.
@Dauda András she was the star of her own series where she broke the 4th wall and had insane stories. She did it before deadpool. Shes based on hulk but in now way is she just his side character
18:27
another Deleted scene that came BEFORE this one.
Harry and Peter talk and Peter finds out that Harry's father had been spying on his family ever since Peter was young.
So many movies are ruined when things are just constantly cut
They cut some really good scenes from the first Amazing Spider-Man as well. There is one where Doc Connors comes to Peter's house to try to console him after Uncle Ben's death, and it not only helps to establish Peter and Connor's friendship, but also helps to humanize Connors when he is in his Lizard form. The movie isn't as good without it.
Funny how they didn't want to release a four-hour-long Spider-Man movie.
@@MusicVersa Yes because 2 vital scenes would make it 4 hours long.
@@dislike_button33 restoring enough scenes to make this film coherent would make it way too long. It's too long already. This script is just fundamentally broken. It needed a complete top to bottom rewrite to focus on a central plot and excise the Kurtzman stank.
To be fair, the movie needed to be cut of more of the unnecessary fatty parts, this movie was ruined because not enough was cut. The screenwriter did not focus on a primary plot, which is why Spiderman 3 wasn't well-received either. The most of newly introduced villain characters you want in a film is two, we got four (Hobgoblin, Electro, Rhino, and Oscorp scientists), one is preferred, but two is doable. You want a single plot, we got way more than that and none of them intertwine, so that needed trimming as well.
The movie even tried to be clever with Gwen’s death by having the spinning clock hands stopping at hour 1 and minute 21 as a reference to ASM 121, Gwen’s death issue.
It even had Gwen wear the same outfit she wore in that issue when she died, the purple skirt and green overcoat.
Andrew Garfield really acted his chops off in that scene. I legit cried.
@@welcometothemetaverse2523 yeah. It's incredible.
I think it genuinely was clever as a result!
@Mr Sack What do you mean "tried to be clever"? It was a nice easter egg!
Are we even hating on easter eggs now, just to find out something to complain about?
There’s also an alternate ending where it shows his dad alive in a graveyard talking to peter
That would have raised the stakes more
just like in the comics
He actually put that ending in his "Top 11 WTF Alternate Movie Endings" video.
I think that would lead to "the clon saga". The ultimate one. Its great . And start the same with the father back to life. But in reality its his clone
@Brandon Brooks i dont know what part 3 would be about. And i know original clon saga is bad
But i mean about "ultimate spiderman: the clon saga" is great. And its fits with this scene.
I put my money in someone was trying to do it.
Remember the majority of marvel films (i know this is sony) have strong bonds with Ultimate universe.
Last time I was this early, we weren’t quarantined.
lol

@@awesomesauce3674 ok? And?
Had a feeling when he said “The worst Spider-Man movie next,” it would be either THIS movie or that one 70’s Spider-Man show that was super boring.
Tanner Price or Supidaman
The live action one?
TAS2 at least had good-looking web swinging and visually cool fight scenes. Plus, Spidey's suit looks A M A Z I N G.
But Supaidaman was cool.
Tanner Price I wanna see Critic react to the insanity

Still might be better than Megamind 2
I actually like how she died. Him actually catching her but she still hits the ground
Yeah, and his heartbroken sobs definitely struck something in me and seemed very real!! Fantastic acting, I say.😊
I thought her spine snapped.
@@astrowolvez i did too, i didnt see her hit the ground, it looked like whiplash back/neck break
She didn't hit the ground. He tried to prevent her from hitting the ground and die, but because of the sudden pull he does to save her, her neck is broken and dies from his rescue attempt instead. Despite what NC says, I think the scene still works because of their chemistry, I still felt that scene even though I saw it coming and Green Goblin was botched.
@@JachAnen Which would have made for some amazing (if done right) emotional guilt if a 3rd got made
“Electro Looks nothing like in the comic” it’s official Doug hasn’t read comics past the 2000’s
To be fair, he made it clear that he almost exclusively reads Venom comics
EdgyZiggy9538 so THAT explains why he was able to dig into the film during his review. 😅😅😅😅😅
well considerign what they JUST released I think we can ignored the latest version
@@kareemmasri3934 even then the way he digs makes no sense? We all understand that Venom is not that deep character and the backstory given post is 2010s. Could the movie incorporate some of the story absolutely but we all also know that the mouse house would fight over money and that they can improve some with the sequel.
@@kazinadbiralamadit6905 I doubt we'll ever get a Venom Movie that lives up to the comics.

@@ninjahombrepalito1721 This is true and you raise a good point.

At that point real scientific concerns went out the window a long time ago.
To be fair, they do say that his father had been researching the disease for decades. He just never found a cure while he was alive.

Wow your right. Love seeing all the msties in the comments here
@Hayden TCEM what fans of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (mst3k) are called.
I will always respect this movie because it had the balls to show Gwen's death no fade to black, no off screen just a visceral heartbreaking *Crack*
9:17 Are we just ignoring that bug on the wall?
Or is it secretly a radioactive spider?
Critic, that ending speech was amazing, and in more ways than one. First, spider-man is my favorite superhero. He always has been since I was a little kid. And to see all these versions of him, both good and bad, is great because it shows how special he was to so many people. Second, I may be reading too much into it, but that speech and the way it was worded almost felt like encouragement for us right now. Cause it is scary and it is a huge loss, more than we think. We won't be the same, not after something like this. But, we always find ways to bounce back. No matter what, we just have to keep going. And I loved that. Again, may be reading too much but that's just my opinion
+Jedi Master ULTRA-NERD Thanks for leaving this kind message!
29:29 A freakin awesome speech!
I wouldn't call him my favorite. I'm more a DC guy, but he has always been top tier for me and I've said before that, some Spider Man movies are better than others, but since Raimi at least, there's not been one that's unwatchable.
Compare that to Batman, Superman and Green Lantern (my top three).
The best way to look at your life is like a book, and every big change in your life is like the beginning of a new chapter, you’re taking on a different way of living and it’s not the same as the last one, it’ll feel weird and even kinda scary that you’re essentially leaving behind what you were like before but you’ll always pull through and in time learn to settle into the life you have now, and even though the past chapters in your life aren’t who you are anymore they’ll always be there, and so you can still look back and be like “Wow, it’s so crazy how I went from here to here” Same goes for how your personality changes as you get older, you won’t really be the same person as you once were but that’s all a part of growing and changing, so just remember, just because a change in your life happens it doesn’t mean it’s over, it just means that you’ve moved on to the next chapter in your life and the next wave of new experiences is about to open up to you
I can see quarantine effects in this vid. The wall change to them being at home after a glitchy recording of a previous in-studio opening; the limited actors present; Tamera being used on her own like a sent-in video a’ la Mystery Science Theater 3000. Very creative solutions. Keep up the good work and stay healthy.
Putting Doug in the Spider-Man costume with Malcolm dubbing.
A cut away to a clip from the live-action Kim Possible review instead of filming a new bit to go there.
if you notice they didnt show them together it went back and forth, till the end but as we seen in AVGN Nightmare on Elm Street I think James was able to edit himself in the scene 4 times
now that you mention it holy shit yea! i kinda felt it was off but honestly hadnt figured out why, doesnt detract from the videos enjoyment factor but its interesting to see!
Honestly, I never realized what felt off with Harry until you mentioned it but yeah, he does act like he's from some sort of alternate dimension.
Doug - "Man you guys went to some Extreme measure to get that wall back"
Me - Nearly dies laughing(thanks man we all needed that)
"The wall...is still the wrong colour-"

"Ow!"
I guess you and everyone else find anything funny
*extreme.
"Don't worry. It gets better."
"Really?"
"No."

That was a "Lucy" moment....
Sounds like 2020
It seems that the WORST Spiderman movies ALWAYS are the ones that introduced too many villains. Really, don't all superhero movies that try to do too much in a single movie always fail?

It's pure cheese, but not great cheese like the 60s Spider-man cartoon.

OH MY GOD Felecity Jones is in this. I completely forgot. She would've been a great Black Cat but unfortunately this movie is so bad it ruined any chances of that.

Hey here an idea for a few reviews.
Review the Pirates of Caribbean movies
I was thinking the Terminators past T2.
Oh the jokes taken at the sequels could be hilarious. And as of the Terminator sequels, I would love the shade thrown at “Salvation” and “Genisys”
Not a big deal, but I just thought I’d put it out there. The version of Electro they went with is actually supposed to resemble the version from Ultimate Spider-Man, not the original comics.
Bad call, Miles Morales worked because he wasn't trying to take over the role of Peter Parker, he was being his own Spider-man. I know Ultimate Mysterio also looks different, guess which one made it?
shindean I fail to see what Miles has to do with how Electro looks in this movie.
@@logannottheonefrommarvel9917 because using the excuse of an Ultimate Spider-Man version doesn't hold water when both of those characters were in the same universe, only one succeeded in film for good a reason
And if I'm not mistaken, Rhino from the Ultimate Spider-Man was a guy in a robot suit like the one from this movie as well. His was just more weaponized.
Yeah amazing Spider-Man (movies) in general was more like a mash between ultimate and spectacular Spider-Man
"Dark Universe's part one of one"
Ouch xD
Which is weird, because Dracula Untold is the first movie in the "universe".
Funny thing but now with streaming on demand having movies as the episodic content makes more sense. But Hollywood doesn't understand anything.
I always found it odd how they decided to spoil the final scene of the movie with the movie's own commercials. Every commercial highlighted that charge forward between Spider-man and the Rhino, which led me to eagerly wait for when they actually had their awesome fight scene in the movie, which I initially imagined it would be Spider-man VS the Rhino for most of the movie. When I actually saw the movie in theaters, I got to the scene where he fights Rhino and then BAM: End credits. I was so disappointed, especially since I had some fond memories of those two duking it out the Animated Series back in the 90's, what with their witty banter they had going on throughout it. I was hoping it would be an amazing realization of their animated antics in a live-action setting, and we don't even get to see them hit each other once.
@drttyu liqm facts. That's basically how it was
I don't understand studios sometimes.
little trivia: the shadowy man was played by the actor who was given the gun and accidentaly shot Brandon Lee to death during The Crow's filming.The incident naturally traumatized him and he took a break from acting for a few years.
He passed away a couple of years ago,so whatever plans they had for his character(which went nowhere as everything else in this movie did...),it died with him.
What a shame
Damn.
That’s horrible to hear
Is this (the first part). . . actually true? Because if so, then that's tragic.
Uncle Ben’s killer?
Nobody:
The Russian name of this movie: New Spider-Man: High Voltage
Dude, the French name is "Amazing Spiderman 2 : the destiny of a hero"...
@@AcetylsaliciIique still better than russian
It's because of the Transporter movies.
edit: i mean the Crank movies.
Daniel Darksun or do you mean Crank High Voltage?
Correct, I definitely mean Crank: High Voltage.
Apparently Russians go crazy for Jason Statham so all movies get renamed to something about high voltage.
"Don't worry! It's gets better!"
"Really?!"
"No."
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
People don't give Garfield enough credit for his spiderman. The Amazing spider man is a good movie and the Gwen death scene was emotional and well acted
It was indeed a good scene, it just - as critic states many times throughout - does not fit with the rest of the movie, which ruins the scene overall.
The way I feel is Andrew Garfield and the rest of the cast were great actors in a average movie
No
He was ok Spider-man, but Gwen death was too soon, i really like Emma Stone, and would have liked if they kept her for further movies.
"hello i'm the wall, i endure ths guy yells so you don't have to"
the real star of this show is back ! Huzzah ! Huzzah ! Huzzah !
So they took a shocking death of a beloved comic character that was being built up over a couple comics and tried to execute that same build up in just 2 movies?
So that's where BvS got the idea from...
When you’re so bored you notice the fly behind the Nostalgia Critic’s shoulder at 9:20.
RazorBeak Yeah I just wrote about that. Is it a fly or Spider? Looks like a spider going down a web to me(which is odd considering the movie he’s reviewing)
Wow
"Looks nothing like comic electro". His ridiculous classic look would never work on screen. His appearance is based on his Ultimate look. He was completely blue and featureless when fully charged up. When he was normal powered, he was a white bald man and wore a long sleeve shirt with a lightning bolt cut into the neckline. The movie combined his Ultimate normal appearance and Ultimate fully charged appearance
Thank you! Finally someone that knows his comics.
I dunno. They should've gone with what PS4 Spider-Man would eventually do with Electro's design
Amazing Spiderman 2 leaned more into the ultimate. They...tried? With green goblin but just had an odd mixup of classic and ultimate. Electro's look worked cause wearing the classic green and yellow costume would be DUMB as fuck. Rhino looked cool on the side.
"His ridiculous classic look would never work on screen"
Well, if you're talking about a dumb lightning mask around his face, no. But look at what Spectacular Spider-Man and PS4 Spider-Man did with that design. Heck, the Vulture in Homecoming was also a rework of a design that was classic but ridiculous, yet he looked awesome too.
Though I have to admit that we already got more than enough Spidey villains on green.
@@uglyguy2519 I meant his lightning bolt mask look, it would never work. But yes, his classic costume could be tweaked to work. However, Mysterio's classic look, which is one of the most ridiculous costumes out there, worked beautifully on screen. So by a miracle and a really good costume designer, Electro's classic look could be done too
"Spiderman's raitings go up"
*J. Jonah. Jameson left the server*
"I didn't think of it that way. I'm sorry"
"I accept your apology"
I swear those little bits of dialogue are the best part of these reviews.
“Spider plane does sound cool”
That should have been an actual line in the movie!!
Why does electro always sound like he’s speaking into a fan?
What was he SUPPOSED to sound like?
Yeah! He's supossed to be Spidey's biggest fan, not talk into his biggest fan.
*"YOU'RE A FRAUD, SPIDER-MAN!"*
_-Green Gobby_
Forget about B.J Novak as Alistair Smythe? Yup, he's in it too XD
@Limau Purut That's a good thing. With Sony at the helm, nothing good would have come of it.
Nobody cares about Smythe
I'll be honest this movie has a special place in my heart. When my daughter was growing up we had Spider-Man. She was 1 when I took her to see the first McGuire Flick. This was the last one we watched together.
My daughter didn't know Gwen Stacy dies. She'd never read the comics or watched cartoons of it. She had 0 idea. I didn't tell her because I figured if they were going to kill off Gwen it would be like in the third one. I had no clue they were going to do it then and there being no bridge I was like "we're safe" Hell I figured this would be the moment Goblin starts to fixate on her leading to him killing her.
So there we are sitting in the theater watching the movie and Gwen starts to fall, I raise an eyebrow tensing up and then the sickening sound of her bouncing off the ground. To my right a gasp, a choked sob and a small voice begging ,"No she's just sleeping...she can't be dead no she's just sleeping" it was heartbreaking. I looked at her and watch my daughter grow up a little as one of her favorite characters in the world died.
That moment will always be etched into my brain and for that moment with my daughter of seeing her humanity and her heart. I'm always willing to say good things.
What a touching story. Thanks for sharing!
Cool story but doesn't make it a good movie. Just makes you biased.
@@DJMangoh at no point did he say it was a good film? Other than it was special to him...kinda an unnecessary comment really
Joseph yeah he said it “it held a special place in my heart”. He didn’t say anything that indicated it was a masterpiece.
I know that he didn't say that the movie was good or bad, but I would like to clarify that while his story is beautiful and touching, the movie will still be bad. Its just a personal point of view.
Imagine Dane DeHaan's Harry Osborn having a conversation with Eddie Redmayne's character from Jupiter Ascending. I would watch a whole movie with these two characters. What a great movie that would be!
Taurin Straiter GO!!!
29:19..."he's talking to us isnt he?"
*gets to the couch scene*
"Oh yeah he was talking to us"
Technically speaking it wasn’t the fall that killed Gwen,it was the bounce from the recoil from Peter’s web. So basically Peter playing yo-yo with his girlfriend is what killed her,not actually the fall. So essentially Peter killed Gwen.
But I thought it because her neck snapped during the fall just like in the comic
@@rjcorreia3788 That’s probably more likely since my comment is based on my interpretation of that particular scene but either interpretation could be true so it’s all good,though now I’m curious what they were actually going for in the scene.
@@snakeharmer6909 True,given the height that she fell from,I don’t think she would’ve walked away from that one.
@@GoddessGirl2121 would she have crawled away from it tho?
@@Marvelfanatic3658 Maybe if something other than her neck had been broken, but given the givens, I think not.
Electro: "I'll be a God to them."

I ment to say sprinkle

I like when the critic explains a bad movie’s flaws and still finds a way to end on a positive note.
It's 'cause this is motherfucking Spider-man. No matter how many blows he takes, he will always be an icon.
I think also because Spider-man wasn't just some movie he watched and reviewed. Or even just watched because. Even before the Nostalgia Critic was a thing he watched them and like he mentioned in the first spider-man review, sometimes things change when you revisit them after a while. More or less, I think it's just while he used to be so one-sided he's just grown to appreciate all the good things they have to offer, even if there are some/a lot bad elements in them.
And yeah for all it's worth, ASM2 still had some really nice things. I think it's just about appreciating the good things about them and knowing that it's not ever going to be "the end all be all" just because of the bad things.
Me too
While this is indeed a bad movie I honestly think it’s a guilty pleasure I mean compared to films like fant4stic, green lantern, superman 4 and catwoman this film looks like into the spiderverse there are some good elements like
The costume
The fight and swinging scenes
While his motivation was non existent I actually thought Jamie foxx was entertaining as electro
And the acting for the most part was pretty good I love the scenes with Gwen and peter
So there I just defended the amazing Spider-Man 2 it may be the worst superhero film to some of you people but to me I’ve seen far worse than this but it is still a bad movie
Just because it's not as bad as the worst superhero movie doesnt mean it's any good
Revy's Bitch I didn’t say it was good I just called it a guilty pleasure I mean I hated how the movie ended
I do have to agree with you. There are films like BvS that are a confusing mess of a movie made to set up sequels. But at least this one was entertaining at times while it did it.
Despite how botched the Green Goblin arc was, I did cry at Gwen's death because the acting was so good.
I find it funny how in the Tobby movies MJ feels more like Gwen and Gwen in these movies feels more like MJ.
That’s a load of bullcrap. Gwen felt more like Gwen in the The Amazing Spider-Man films than MJ. I recently rewatched Spider-Man in honor of its 20th anniversary and while I did have fun rewatching the film and enjoying the action and the campiness of Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin, Mary Jane was easily one of the weakest parts of the film. She just BORED me whenever she was on screen and her conversations with Peter BORED me. She’s just so BORING as well as uninteresting and underdeveloped. She did have potential to be a good character with the setup of her being Peter’s next door neighbor and having grown up with him since childhood and having an abusive father, as cliched as it is. But it sadly wasn’t executed well. It doesn’t help she gets worse in the sequels where she acts like a jerk to Peter just because he missed one FRIGGING performance of her play and can’t understand he’s struggling with being an independent adult with going back and forth with jobs and college and having to pay rent. I swear the next time I watch the film, whenever I get to the scenes with her and Peter, I’m pressing the fast forward button. Gwen in the Amazing Spider-Man films will always be the more interesting and complex of Spider-Man’s girlfriends in film. And hot take, I’d take MJ in the MCU films over MJ in the Raimi films. Fight me.
@@hunterolaughlin That was exactly my point dude. I don't know where you lost that. MJ is the more interesting character in the comics while Gwyn got killed off because people were more interested in MJ. In the Raimi films MJ is boring and uninteresting just like Gwyn was in the comics but in amazing Spiderman movies shes like MJ.
@@claystedman6923 Oops. My apologies. I thought you meant Gwen in the movies. I didn’t know you referring to Gwen from the comics. 🤦♂️
@@hunterolaughlin No problem, I probably should have been a little more clear about that.
*sees the speech at the end*
I see what you did there, you cheeky sneaky....
You made Amazing Spiderman 2, feel better.
Bless you.
The best part of this movie was the Hans Zimmer soundtrack.
Agreed the electro theme was good
Saw it played live at a Hans Zimmmer concert 3 years ago together with a 90+ person orchestra. Was surprising, awesome and epic! Song is best part about the movie for sure!
meh I still really really enjoy Garfield and stone
It wasn't even done by hans it was done by pharell Williams I think hans just supervised it.
The best part of the movie was that end credits song "It's On Again" by Alicia Keys featuring Kendrick Lamar.
Is it weird that I feel bad for the humanised version of The Amazing Spider-man 2
Not at all.
No, what's weird is his mask looks sopping wet.
Denver Arnold it’s probably from all the crying he’s been after watching this movie
No me too.
I don’t know who’s over the top mid-puberty voice is funnier, Malcolm as mopey Spider-Man or Dane DeHaan’s. 🤣
Why does he say "great losses" when Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends is shown? Sure, it was corny, but it was still a good cartoon.
dreamlandnightmare why is he giving some “you’ll get past this” speech to a character who’s far surpassed this shite movie.
As a person who has recently watched it...no, no its not good.
I love it, don't get me wrong. But its super obvious they were just throwing anything at the wall, slapping on some cheap animation and calling it a day. And a lot of the time, it really just came out boring. But then sometimes it throw Dr.Doom and a crazy old man summoning Gengas Kahn to fight three superheroes as if he just summoned God himself, immediately realizing how stupid that is and getting rid of him like 5 seconds later.
@@VileEPeyote Metaphor for the Corona crap
@@VileEPeyote Dude, he's just trying to help this version of Spiderman the best he can.
Haha. No.
Ironically, The Amazing Spider-Man 2: The Videogame focused on finding Uncle Ben's killer, and it was way better than the movie. It somehow managed to add in Carnage and Kraven and still feel more balanced.
Well... the story was slightly better, but the game was terrible. Such a letdown after the Amazing Spider-man 1 game.
@@yoursonisold8743 I agree
Yeah it was a terrible movie tie-in game that was rushed to release with the film. It still had universe building with Shocker, Kraven and Carnage along with pursuing C.K. The last few missions are literally back to back boss fights with no build-up to them. Not really Beenox's fault though.
I thought Gwen's dad periodically showing up represented Peter's guilt of breaking his dying wish. So when she dies, it makes it more impactful because he had nothing to show for keeping Gwen in his life.
That’s exactly why her dad shows up
That subway lab looks like it should have been in Michael Bay's TMNT movies.
Big facts
So they made the same mistakes as Spiderman 3 but it's somehow more depressing.
Yep
Only so Sony could retain the rights, and they flopped and now Disney and Sony allowed Spidey in the MCU. And judging by the Morbius trailer Sony wants their Marvel movies in the MCU just for Spider Man.
@@DedricSilva agreed
Not even. Spiderman 3 only happened because they forced Rami to do Venom when he really didn't want to and has admitted that he doesn't get the allure of the character. Here, was just movie by committee. So not the same mistakes, no.
@The Once And Future King I disagree. Not about Rami starting to like Venom, I don't really know and also not really the point, also emo Peter is just a meme. It was stupid yes, but not the reason the movie didn't do well.
The movie didn't do well because it wasn't very good.
The plot was bloated sure, but we could have cut until the cows came home and still not gotten a good movie, because it was also doing too many things with far to little set up, cramming characters in that didn't need to be crammed and not giving the audience time to connect with any of them.
That isn't just bloat, that's writing problems, and just screams that they should have taken a few more passes to decide what they wanted to do with the characters in particular and the movie in general. Personally I'd have cut all of the Harry and Goblin stuff period. Used John Jamison and his space mission to explain the symbiote's presence on Earth and that's just for starters the sort of stuff you would need to make it a decent movie, never mind good.
My legit reaction to seeing the green 'knob-lin' for the first time:
"...He looks like a troll doll got hit by a lawn mower!"
That is perfect XD
I knew there was something familiar about him...I just couldn’t place it.🚜🤯
why does that green goblin "you ruined my life" remind me of onision's meltdown?
Which one? He's had so many.
Nostalgia Critic: I would have liked to see where Garfield's Spider-man went.
MCU Spider-man 3: Hold my beer.
Review South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut.
I agree 👍
Actually electro looks like this now a days when he use his power
The Spider-Man PS4 version of Electro didn’t look like this. He actually looks like a modernized version of the comic version, with the green & yellow color scheme, yellow lightning, scarring that matches the original mask, & better motivation: using his powers for his own selfish gain & hating Spider-Man because he stops him.
Its more how he looks in the Ultimate Comics the Ultimate Cartoon used the same look to
That's Ultimate Universe Electro.
Considering what kind of directions modern marvel takes that doesnt help this movie's case
Bea r Still a better motivation than the one from Amazing Spider-Man 2.
This was the DCEU before the DCEU...setting up plot threads for future movies and cramming in as much as possible all at once before setting up anything.
Kind of? Man of Steel was already out
Artydomi At the very least DCEU recovered thanks to Wonder Woman and other films that would come later.
@@DigiRangerScott But it wasn't meant to be the start, thats why they didn't cram much into it, since it was originally going to be part of the TDK universe
BVS is the "oficial" start of the DCEU
yet this is still better than nearly everything the DCEU has pumped out
Mr. Johnson & The Juice Crew Mostly Sony’s fault more so than the movie itself.
You finally made me realize the moment this movie broke down, it was when Peter told Harry that he wouldn't help him out of the blue. That was just an utter... dick move out of nowhere. Like you say, if they'd shown the secret lab bit BEFORE it, it would have helped a lot. Now that I ALSO found out that originally he DID give his blood to Harry and THEN found out about what he'd done, making him responsible to everything bad happening, oh what juicy writing that would have been.
I also thought that the deep bass tesla coil remix of itty bitty spider was fucking cool.
