You hoped for an amazing spider man movie but it didn't turn out as amazing as the Sam Raimi movies. "Maybe the next one will be better," you say to yourself. But it doesn't turn out great, it isn't even mediocre. It is bad. Now, people hate you. Everyone hates the movie and everyone hates you. You get the title of the worst Spiderman.

To be fair, Andrew is regarded as one of the best Spider-Man actors, even if his movies were a bit lacking. You don't really see people attacking him as much as the movie. And the few that do are pretty much idiots anyway. Especially when he is IN the suit I can't recall anyone that does it better. Not Tom, not Tobey, no one. He, in my eyes, is the only one that feels like he got the mannerisms, quips and general attitude of the wall-crawler down. (Which does not mean the other 2 don't do well in the suit either, just that I find their Peter Parker more convincing than their Spider-Man if you catch my drift)

[@maverickslb80]

You said everything that needed to be said. People hated him for no valuable reason other then they were Tobey fanboys. Andrew did a great job and still is the best Peter Parker/Spider-Man to me.

[@steventhomasson]

Garfield and Stone were genius casting choices. It's a shame that Sony let them down by hiring poor writers and strong-arming Marc Webb too much. Tobey will always be my favourite, no doubt because he was my childhood hero, however Raimi is a top-class director and the scripts were of similar high quality. Andrew needs to be given another movie with the care and attention he deserves, especially after he was one of the many highlights in NWH.

Ben Affleck in BvS was great. His protrayal of Bruce Wayne has that darker more serious depressed Batman which I really liked. He is who he is because of his childhood trauma. Having to watch his parents die right in front of him shaped him to become how he was. There's one particular scene I loved where Bruce and Alfred were talking about the legacy of the Waynes. Alfred said "You know you can't win this. It's suicide". Bruce acknowledged this but he just replied with "I'm older now than my father ever was. This may be the only thing I do that matters". To me, it's almost as if deep down in him he wanted to die at that point. He just wasn't conscious of it. He made himself believe that Superman is bad so that he could have a reason to fight him. But when the fight actually happens Superman held back and didn't want to kill him. When Superman brought up Martha it reminded him of the night that made him who he was. He realised that he could help save someone's (Superman) mother so that he don't have to endure the same pain Bruce endured while also in a way he could also have a chance to save his own mother so that he could be free from his childhood trauma that plagued him his whole life.

This definitely has my favorite version of Flash, that’s for sure. In the comics, he was an asshole bully, but would at times showcase his natural leadership whenever his school would be attacked by supervillains looking for Spider-Man. Spider-Man’s example also led him to become a war hero later on in life. What I see in this Flash is someone who could end up like that. I see a kid who lost someone close to him, and used aggression to cope with it to make himself feel better, but isn’t above becoming better. He’s definitely on a different trajectory by the end of the movie, and seems like he’s more at peace with himself.

I grew up with the Raimi films (and Evil Dead/Army of Darkness are some of my favourite films ever, with Ash being one of my favourite characters); but the moment i saw Garfield with that costume i knew he Was Spider-Man. The Raimi ones are great comic golden age films being campy and fun to watch; but TASM was what i wanted from a live action Spider-man film, it had some mistakes (not a huge fan of the villain, but the actor was great and seeing the deleted scenes he would have been a greatly developed villain before all the cuts; also hate how they didn't use the Great Power quote, because of trying to make it "different"...it's something basic and elemental of the character, no one would complain about hearing it...the MCU also makes this stupid mistake). But as a whole it felt more like a Spider-man i could truly admire and look up to during my teenage years/early adulthood. I still believe the best Spider-man is the one from the PS4 game (and i actually think the only actor who would fit that role in a live action adaptation is Garfield lol), with the second one being the one from The Spectacular Spider-Man animated series tied with the ones from Into the Spider-verse. But The Amazing Spider-Man will always be My Live-action Spider-Man and i just hope Garfield knows he was the hero and inspiration for a lot of people.

The only thing I really objected to in all of the movies - and this is literally the only things that I ever bring up as having bothered me in those films - is the portrayal of Harry Osborne in TASM 2. Dane Dehaan was not a good casting choice, and they shouldn't have skipped over Norman for the goblin. Don't get me wrong, Dane Dehann is obviously a good actor, I just think Harry was the wrong character for him. He really should have been playing Carnage, cause he would have nailed that.

One of my favourite scenes in this movie is this little understated bit. It's when Spider-Man creates that big web in the sewers to get a feel for where the Lizard is, and then when we cut back to that a while later, Peter is laying down and playing some dumb little game on his cell phone. It's such a small moment, but I think it's such a great and genuine human touch. He's not in hero-battle mode the whole time. He realistically got bored and started trying to pass the time while waiting for his plan to pay-off like any actual teenager would.

Yeah, I've recently come to accept the fact that I enjoy TASM despite what people think, and that I connect with TASM more than any other film portrayal. And that makes Andrew *MY* Peter Parker, whatever anyone says. I grew out of Tobey's Trilogy immediately after I saw TASM (at age 17). I tried to go back and watch it, but there was too much camp, even for me. And yeah, Tom's great, but missing the raw emotion and depth Andrew has... He's seen enough to be deeply traumatized, more than any other Spider-man, yet his scripts brush over it a lot.

[@joseywales1439]

@@ohifonlyx33 Absolutely - for me TASM is just a gritter, more realistic take on the character, which is always what I go for. That's also the reason why I prefer the Mandalorian over any other Star Wars media... the rest of it is just too campy for my liking.

[@ohifonlyx33]

@@joseywales1439 Well see, I am not a grimdark person. I light fun and sometimes campy stuff... But I also like balance. And I like for the tone to fit the story being told. TASM feels like an intimate, character-driven indie film at times and I think that's why I like it.

[@actioninmyphannypack]

I like that Captain Stacy’s reason for disliking spider man isn’t due to jealousy or pride. It’s based on the fact that he isn’t necessarily helping people at first. He was a super powered person chasing down very specific people in an obvious effort for revenge and letting the guys go when he found out they were the wrong guy.

[@halo4xgamer]

It breaks my heart to see Andrew receive so much shit despite his genuine passion for Spider-Man...

[@youfirst6611]

I don’t think the shit completely falls on Andrew. It’s the hatred of sony’s mishandling of ASM2 and them forcing a universe. Unfortunately Andrews portrayal was caught in the crossfire.

[@granny5455]

I thought that he did great, it’s just the bad ideas from the company that eventually brought this Spider-man to the grave. And you still gotta be happy that Garfield redeemed himself in Hacksaw

[@portiz6283]

@@granny5455 oh man absolutely! He was Incredible in Hackshaw Ridge! You know he's such a good sport when it comes what happened to his role as Spider-Man! He is happy that Tom Holland is now in the role and excited to see more from him! Was he upset that he couldn't be Spider-Man anymore? Yes! Was he heartbroken? Absolutely but he's not holding onto that and after Hacksaw Ridge why does he need too? I do wish he was given a second chance though cause it wasn't his fault that this franchise failed! I HATED TASM 2 and still do but it wasn't his fault!

[@parkerboy795]

@@youfirst6611 Unfortunately, people gave Andrew shit the moment he was cast because he wasn't the first actor to play Spiderman on the big screen. Pretty sure some people still do.

I’ve always preferred Rami’s take on the character, but I never hated on Garfield . It wasn’t his fault that he was in a bad movie he did his best.

[@PsychoEmerald]

We desperately need an extended version of this movie, with all of those insanely important emotional moments between Peter and Connors that were cut for the runtime. I love this movie, and I would sit through a four-hour long cut of this movie if it came to that.

[@angel0217]

I think every incarnation of Spider-Man in the movies have something unique and beautiful; the three of them have something to admire. Raimi did a pure adaptation of the best age of the character. With a ridiculous, but earnest style of a comic book of the 60's. That is the Spider-Man that Lee and Ditko would want in a movie. Webb did a pretty realistic reinvention of the character. As the video says, it's a human with more flaws than qualities. Which is not bad, because that way you can see how a person of our tangible world would react to the fact of being super powered. Watts is doing a study of proactivity and passivity and how this both things can have consequences in a teenage superhero. It's a kid that doesn't truly know what's doing, but eventually will come up with a conclusion that this two concepts, if applied wrong, can be his real enemies. Like taking all the ridiculousness of Raimi and the human factor of Webb and blending it together in a experiment that pretty far is managing to be unique. I admire the three movie Spider-Man by what they stand for and what they represent. I think that's we all need to see, the beauty in every one of them.

[@livefromred9605]

Honestly, Andrew Garfield is the person that feels the most like comic book spider-man. He quips like him, he’s excited by fighting crime like him, and he’s about as crafty. They only messed up his Peter Parker side by trying to be more angsty than the counterpart. He definitely looks the most similar too.
