Honestly, there will never be a better Spiderman movie than 2.

First Spider-Man: Homecoming reactions
- Thread starter Biggest-Geek-Ever
- Start date
I hate seeing the Waynes dying. It's torture porn at this point
if we get a spiderman that actually talks, it will already best AMS 2
Civil War was the MCUs origin story for him.
It worries me that both of the immediate reviews feel Homecoming falls short of Raimi's original Spiderman.
I mean, I love that movie, but it hasn't aged particularly well. It's got a lot of flaws, especially in the action department.
At times it's basically a big budget Power Rangers episode.
Well sure it hasn't aged well, that scene also features Macy Gray singing in a parade! Remember her?
I actually disagree tho, especially on the action. Raimi put a lot of punch into the fights. Everything felt like it hurt. A lot. And the ending confrontation between Spidey and Goblin is brutal, seriously. No other comic movie has had that kind of violence I don't think. While movies like Winter Solider have since featured better action choreography, we do have to keep in mind Spiderman basically predated the modern superhero cinematic universe stuff. So Raimi was essentially pioneering like Richard Donner was with the Superman films.

Except it would be Winter Soldier, Guardians, Spider-Man 1 & 2, Homecoming and then everything else which is madness.
it's quite good, but i prefer tom holland off cvil war alone to tobey who still bothers me (along with dunst)
molina, jk & others are excellent though
thanks for taking the heat off me

With all the positivity, I'd just like to see one tweet in the middle exclaiming "it was ok"
MISERY MISERY MISERY

Like I already mentioned, I totally agree the final Spidey V Goblin square-off once they get away from the bridge is fantastic, but it doesn't change the fact that a lot of the other action sequences in that film aren't so well handled (like the Power Rangersque World Unity Festival square-off, which conversely is very clumsy and cloddish in its execution)

Absolutely LOVED LOVED LOVED Spider-Man Homecoming. Funny. Filled with surprises. Tons of fun. Going to make insane $ at box office.
Also Spider-Man Homecoming has one of the best after the credits scenes yet. But not for the reason you'd expect. Trust me. Stay till end.

The only flaw to Spider Man 2 is it's entirely unbelievable that Peter Parker's into Mary Jane Watson when Miss Brant is right there.

The origin story talk is dumb. This film is basically a pseudo-origin story with this being his first "real" villain.
Hmm...

Sounds like the movie is pretty good.
I'd kill Uncle Ben for that.

That was some crazy shit. I knew about
most of the OG Guardians
Aunt May being the cryptkeeper w/ a kid still in HS never really made a lot of sense.

Cryptkeeper??? Shame on you
You still haven't seen Captain America: Civil War yet?
I only watched the first trailer. heard all the later trailers spoil the entire movie.
People said the same thing about GOTG 2, and most of the trailers were made up of footage from the first 30 minutes of the movie
Huh!
That would have actually been a pretty cool choice! I could totally see it.

Proceed with caution. BvS early reactions were very positive as well.

Phew, I was worried to be honest, more than any MCU film of recent memory. (Doctor Strange was a vanilla film dipped in Tabasco sauce, but I don't care about Doctor Strange).
