I love Bully Garfield too

The best songs from Tick Tick Boom Are ; 30/90 , Johnny can’t decide, therapy, Come to your senses , why, and louder than words.

[@TheSkoobiSnax]

The saying you two are looking for goes: "Imitation is the best form of flattery." You're welcome. @BBCRadio1

How can you watch the full video when you're not in the UK?

[@Mwhiteshelley]

The way that he brings up the thirst tweet VOLUNTARILY…and then comments on the sentence structure. 😭😍🤣

[@liveyurbliss]

What’s hilarious is that he doesn’t get the true intention of the tweet, or maybe he does but didn’t want it to end up as a soundbite on the internet. He’s seriously butch in that scene and it’s sexy AF 😈

[@Mwhiteshelley]

@@liveyurbliss I think he gets it. He just likes a well put together sentence. 😂🤣😁

[@liveyurbliss]

@@Mwhiteshelley yes, lol, a perfectionist in all he does 😂. I saw a Wired clip where he comments about bad grammar and it’s hilarious. Such a dear sweet man ☺️.

[@LuciDelazeri]

Andrew is so funny, I still can't believe he brought back the thirst tweets interview 😂 that's one of my favorite interviews of all time, I'm on the ground rn 🤣

[@muamsa]

Great thing about Andrew is whenever someone tries to compliment him, he always brings everyones names who also works with him. Silence, Tick Tick Boom, his Peter Parker, Hacksaw Ridge .. my personal favs of his performance. True artist.

[@PlanetXerox]

Just like Hugh Jackman.

[@roshanthapa4164]

Nobody can give the emotional depth that Andrew Garfield showed in that scene. It was the peak scene of the movie and he nailed it with Jesse and Justin. Many people can imitate but they can't beat the original ones.

[@ameliacraiig4193]

Yes! Andrew being his usual self-deprecating actor there. He's also the better looking one, out of the two. 😊

TASM3: Andrew’s Spidey vs Void Stiles/the Nogitsune! Supposedly Dylan won’t be back for the movie and I know obviously VS/the Nogitsune isn’t part of the Marvel comics, but oh my goodness would that be that he one of the most craziest battles ever. All joking aside, if they did a movie together, imagine the hysterical, witty one-liners, the fun scenes. I think it would be one to see!

[@nabilayasmine3319]

[@liv97497]

I really did not expect to like it as much as I did - I think maybe because I don't really like Rent - but I found it so refreshing both as a musical and as a biopic. Just delightful all the way through.

The way Andrew Garfield is still praising Dylan O’Brien for his spoof performance of Andrews’s scene in the social network is phenomenal! These 2 are literally my top favorite actors and the fact that Andrew has nothing but kind words for Dylan is amazing! He’s such a sweetheart! This is just the icing on the cake! Not to mention Dylan O’Brien’s Andrew Garfield’s impression lol

[@sofidesofides]

His laugh on that particular thirst tweet lives in my mind rent free

Andrew being nominated for an Oscar is the current best thing ever, he truly is one of the top talented actors of our generation.

I swear Ali is like the small time version of Graham Norton. He has such a positive effect on all the people he interviews, he's not just talking to them, he's having a proper conversation. Never stop with Ali, he's great.

[@Bamgeutcutiepie]

I like how Ali said "Boho Days" is in his head 'Rent-free'. Because... Rent. Also I'm mad that Andrew said Dylan O'Brien is more handsome than he is. Andrew!!! You're lovely

[@Inuinu758]

The interviewer could have mentioned even though they took many takes of that scene they ended up using the first take in the movie. They revealed that story later in the interviews.
