Tobey By a MILE

[@idolhandz3946]

I enjoyed them all, but Toby was the my fav Peter Parker. He could never catch a break & took the abuse quietly. The movies (with the exception to 3) caught what the comics always did to Peter.

[@PixelBasgolova]

I've heard the the 3 actors explained like this: Toby is a great Peter Parker Andrew is a great Spider-Man Tom did both great

[@terrylandess6072]

Meh, I vote this was the best J. Jonah Jameson.

[@fredskull1618]

Maguire = best Peter Parker Garfield = best Spider-Man Holland is kinda in between. Honorable mention goes to Jake Johnson for Peter B Parker from Spiderverse

[@capedcrusader99]

Tobey maguire the GOAT

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Absolutely! An iconic Spider-Man ❤️

[@UlisesCaspeta]

Tobey Maguire got bit by a spider but see, me, it was a GOAT 🐐

“If he doesn’t want to be famous, then I’ll make him infamous!” I love that quote!

[@tjjordan4207]

I wonder if the video game InFamous got its title from this movie.

[@heykrazy5436]

The dialogue is what sets this as the best spiderman trilogy. Because it's so realistic. Tom Holland is great but he gets help cause of the mcu. Toby made spiderman relatable for everyone.

[@AlastorsShadowDemon]

We’re including spider-man 3 in this? I wouldn’t.

[@rockymontanagarciamane]

@@AlastorsShadowDemonspiderman3 feels almost depressing to watch its weird, i loved it when it came out in thesters wayback in 2007 but i was like 5-6 at that time

[@cinefreak8877]

The final battle with the Green Goblin is downright savage! The atmosphere, the broken-down building, lack of music and those brutal hits… what a showdown.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Yesss, savage is the perfect word!! It was actually hard to watch, seeing Peter get beaten so badly!

[@jacekrypt5199]

It's one of the rules within a heroes soul "Never anger a hero" because they show they're true power when they get angry especially when they're loved ones get threatened with death. Always brings shivers to the spine.

[@PMO_only]

Green goblin was just a menace

[@elliottbullockii3282]

It's one of the best third acts in a superhero film!

[@robertjacques4117]

It proves that you don't need a ton of flash or cg to make a compelling superhero fight

[@xXandrewjcXx]

17:45 I believe Sam Raimi once said something along the lines that while he was able to accept that Peter Parker is smart enough to make web shooters, he had a harder time accepting that this Peter Parker had the resources to make them, as he's a kid in high school with no job. I think May and Ben even have a small scene where they're talking about how things might be financially tough for a bit. I really like when Spider-Man makes his web fluid (don't really know why tbh) but I actually really appreciate the level of thought that they put into the world building with thought processes like that.

[@valeria262]

I believe Tobey has said in an interview that they didn't think it made sense for Peter to be smart enough to create these incredible pieces of tech yet be having everyday money problems

[@matthewmckenzie1404]

Yeah the biological web slingers kind of made it harder to believe (when I got older) because where would the body store it, and where does his body get the proteins to create webs? Hindsight: should've got peter too look up how to make web slingers on a classic 2000's beige color desktop computer, but computers were probably very new tech and barely thought of back then.

[@ZeekoRamen]

Tobey Maguire is the one true Spiderman and always will be. Such great movies.

[@leroyblackspidey2851]

1000000% FACTS 💯❤️💙🕷🕸🐐

[@oliviamorton2763]

Totally agree! Adam’s Spiderman grew on me, but still, nobody will ever be as good and classic as Tobey! 👍🏻🙌🏻❤

[@h.donnellgrayiii4276]

Tobey Maguire is a raging alcoholic. Andrew Garfield was a way better Peter Parker but in lesser quality films than these.

[@strawberrylotlizard]

​@@oliviamorton2763I think Andrew was a better Spider-Man because he was really good with the quips and making jokes in combat. But Toby was definitely the best overall live action. Spider-Man and he also seems the most realistic

[@nugget3687]

They are all fantastic, I think saying any actor for any character is the "one true blank" is silly because the character existed way before they played them and will continue to exist way after.

[@divinegokublack1362]

So fun fact: Willem Dafoe would wear white perfect teeth when he was playing Norman. He would take out the perfect teeth when playing the Goblin. It helps his performance and you could barely see the difference but it is there. Took me years to learn this

[@valeria262]

I only knew cause of the new Rockstars breakdown

[@leobuscaglia5576]

Took you years to learn this? Time well spent grasshopper, now you are a Shaolin master.

[@darkerkyo]

Didn't J.K. Simmons wear fake teeth as well?

[@Eldaino999]

I remember Raimi made it a point to always have Peter get beat the hell up because audiences loved it; they loved when he was able to come back from it. What a total classic. Still the best interpretation of Spidey onscreen, and one that makes him a truly loveable uncool dork, which is what Peter always was. Also: Elfman’s theme is still top tier.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Elfman's score is just iconic and unforgettable!! It's so cool that Raimi focused on that, because it really is a great way to show that Peter is not only strong physically, but also has a will of steel!

[@scoobysnak07]

No matter what happens, Spiderman always gets back up

[@kraven4444]

His Bother cameo at 37:02

[@Burstify]

​@kraven4444 Not a cameo. Ted Raimi plays the character *Hoffman* in all Spider-Man 3 films.

[@ismaelvargas-osiris6108]

There's one thing Harry didn't hear when Norman was talking to Peter at the graduation: Norman is caring and supportive to Peter BECAUSE of Harry. Norman knows that Peter has always been there for Harry (one thing Norman himself cannot do because of his job), he takes Peter in the family because Harry sees him as a brother.

[@ryan_hawks12]

OMG YES!! My all time favorite Spider-Man ever, I grew up with Tobey Maguire, it definitely still holds up, the music, the action, I love it all! Can’t wait to rewatch this with you!

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Omg saaame, Tobey Maguire's Spider Man is such a huge part of both of our childhoods, rewatching this was amazing and we're so excited to share our reaction with y'all! Hope you enjoy!

[@phoenix00717]

The parallel of Peter becoming Spider-Man and Norman becoming green Goblin is top tier.👌 This movie has truly become a classical!

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

The storytelling here both narratively and visually speaking is top notch! And both Tobey Maguire and Willem Dafoe killed it with their performances.

[@tjjordan4207]

Something I really like is that the hero and villain are being created simultaneously but separately. Not the hero accidentally creating the villain or the villain accidentally creating the hero. The only coincidence is that it is happening at the same time, which adds a very subtle layer for the audience to think about if it is fate intervening or it was all by chance.

[@paneledmeteor33]

I’ll never ever forget when I first saw this. 2002, I was in Daycare, and the teachers would play it for us before naptime. This movie inspired my love of not only Superheroes, but film scores. Danny Elfman is why I love film scores! Not too long after, my mom got me my own tv and VHS player. And I would always rewind the opening titles just to listen to the theme!!! Thanks for the reaction, Ari and Denise. You made me feel like a kid again

[@LittleGalaxyBoy]

I was born in 2000s, so I grew up with a Tobey Maguire Spider-Man-themed bedroom, watching these films religiously and playing the tie-in video games that expanded on their stories. For example, the Spider-Man (2002) game followed the events of the film featuring the Green Goblin but also included additional villains like Shocker, Vulture, and Scorpion to add more content to the game. You could also unlock the Alex Ross Spider-Man and Green Gobin designs that were never used in the film but he designed as idea's for the suits. Though his Spider-Man suit design for the film would later inspire Superior Spider-Man in the comics. Spider-Man 2 (2004) also had an amazing tie-in game that introduced some of the best web-swinging mechanics in gaming history, which have since served as inspiration for every Spider-Man game that followed including the amazing Marvel's Spider-Man PlayStation games. In previous games, the web-swinging felt more like flying, as the webs would just attach to the sky. However, Spider-Man 2 introduced actual physics to the swinging, with webs attaching to the nearest object, allowing you to swing and release whenever you wanted. If there was nothing to swing from, you'd simply fall until you found something to attach to, creating a much more dynamic and realistic experience.

[@TheOfficialRashiii]

Spider man 2 next?! Im hoping so much! You two delivered an amazing reaction as well, such appreciation for a classic film. Always exceeding expectations and thats why this is hands down the best reaction channel. Thank you for this and many more reactions to come.

One of my fav things about Spiderman is when they show how much cops and firefighters love him, despite what media claims. They know the truth, how much he helps them to save lives. Always warms my heart when they have moments to return the favor.

[@JasonKreider-eq8kp]

The cops where ready to arrest him at the burning building

[@TFD-sn5nt]

What Dr Osborn (Green Goblin ) was making when he was talking to the general is recreating Super Soldiers, aka the same power of Captain America, but he was not successful with it, not the same way he planned. That’s why you don’t see Green Goblin do the same or have the same power of Capt does and suffer the craziness

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

That’s kind of a big theme in marvel comics, you’d be surprised how many villains and heroes spawned due to someone trying to recreate the success Steve Rogers was. Loved that they included a bit of that here!

[@mp6640]

@OfficialMediaKnights, that always been a trope with superheroes and villains lol 😂 and there’s a whole list

[@SeedFactoryProject]

@@OfficialMediaKnights An origin story has to explain how a superhero became super. Superman/Supergirl are aliens. Shazam and Doctor Strange are magic. Thor and Wonderwoman are gods. Before genetic engineering it was often a serum, later it was mutations or genetic engineering. Radiation is another popular one. Villains often have similar origins. The difference is what you do with the special abilities once you have them.

[@shawnpatrick1877]

This isn't a knock on the MCU because I love many of those films. I love how they created a shared universe just like in the comics. But all of my favorite superhero movies are still ones that came out before the MCU, and some of them are really old classics. Spider-Man 2 (2004), Superman 1 & 2 (1978 & 1980), The Dark Knight (2008), and Batman (1989) are all STILL at the top of my list.

[@HirXeBomb]

The problem with The Amazing Spider-Man 1 and 2 along with Homecoming and Far From Home is they just didn't had the heart like Sam Reimi's Spider-Man movies had. Don't get me wrong they are still good Spider-Man movies but it felt more like the CGI had the upper hand while Sam Reimi's Spider-Man movies had everything you wanted in a good movie balanced well together, story, character development, difficult choices, action and drama. Even with Spider-Man 3 when Sony intervened with Sam Reimi's directing, you could still feel it. No Way Home was just a nostalgia trip done very well and it is 1 of my favs however Spider-Man 2 was a superb sequel and still the best Spider-Man movie to this date! Can't wait for the reaction on that 1. 🕷🕸

I just want to leave a comment and say that you guys are my favorite reactors on YT 🥺 Keep up the good work! 🥰🫶

[@ramon.rnt1992]

Excuse me!!! This was literally my childhood!! I grew up with comics as well, and Spiderman has been my favorite marvel super hero since i was a kid. Cant wait to see this!!!

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Literallyyyy, our childhood in one movie!! Spider Man was Ari's favorite too, so definitely can relate there! We hope you have fun with our video!

[@Reefism]

I recommend Sam Raimi's 1990 film Darkman. It was my introduction to Liam Nesson!

[@vinnylewis9245]

Darkman is great, it's hilarious in the typical Raimi way

[@carlosmoreno3007]

I'm so glad you guys are reacting to this movie. Love this movie so much. This movie changed my life forever. This movie made me a Spider-Man fan and so glad I watched it in theaters when I was 7. Tobey Maguire will always be my Spider-Man. Everything about this film is extraordinary.

[@mzondi1970]

4 years old? You're a baby I was 32 when I saw this in the theater LOL

[@fredskull1618]

Yeah, I was 20 when I saw the movie in the theater and my heart sank when I heard him say that he was four 😂

[@Anshzdblegends]

I was 7.

[@HunkSupreme]

I been waiting for this moment of you guys reacting this masterpiece movie.

[@santanat.4885]

Holy crap, it’s awesome being this early! You two are fucking awesome! I love your takes! It’s like watching all these movies for the first time again!

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

You guys are the freakin’ best, truly ❤️ Thank you for being a part of this journey

[@santanat.4885]

@@OfficialMediaKnightsI’m definitely subscribing to you guys as soon as I get caught up from Helene and Milton!

[@idolhandz3946]

So good to see Stan again. A man that brought so much joy & creativity that will outlast all of us. RIP Stan Lee.

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

Seeing Stan again got us so emotional, it's indescribable what that man did for all of us! RIP Stan Lee ❤️

[@brandonrobinson529]

41:44 💀💀💀💀😂😂😂😂 That line always cracked me up and Yes RIP Stan Lee Legends Never Die 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@Gojeto346]

The direct mirroring of Norman telling Peter “thank God for you” while being deceived, then having to hear it from Harry, the man he’s now having to deceive. So great.

[@merchillio]

My 9yo son has been playing a lot of Spider-Man 2 on the PlayStation. I showed him that movie just last week because in my opinion that’s the movie that feels the most like the game. The swinging, the fights, it’s my favorite Spider-Man movie series.

[@joelespinoza8579]

7:41 talking about the powers miles has

[@gameknight5879]

When I first subscribed to your channel, I searched through to see if you guys had already covered this movie specifically. This is my all time favorite movie. About to watch the reaction now, I love all of your videos!

[@Kevin.Costner.]

ya know i guess one person can make a difference 🤗

[@OfficialMediaKnights]

They definitely can!

[@jjkk1630]

Great reaction. Raimi Spider-Man movies were a big part of my childhood, I remember being in the second grade and being fascinated with Willem's interpretation of the Goblin.

[@zazoreal5536]

Oh no....Spider man is far stronger than Goblin. He just pulls his punches. Once upon a time he stopped pulling them and, the enemies started going away.

[@JamieWhite-jm3zj]

My favourite movie of all time, words cannot express how much this film means to me and it was great seeing your guys reaction to it, hoping you react to 2 and 3 too!!!

[@davekisman2763]

Tropic Thunder: 52:01 MTV Movie Award. Best Kiss Winner. Tobey Maguire.

[@wiilover07]

I was 14 when it came out. I saw it in theaters 3 times. One of my favorite super hero movies ever. I'm a massive Spider-Man fan!!!

[@donnaroo8042]

Love to see the Raimi/Campbell love! Thanks for another great reaction. Great breakdown of the big battle scene. It reminded me of my favorite movie fight scene - in Atomic Blond.

[@charleighkimber4611]

You know what we need? A montage of Norman learning to use the glider, practice his weapons, practice his evil laugh, draw his suit ideas, pratfalling comically...

[@valeria262]

It was all embedded in the gas

[@heathTK]

This is my favorite Spider-Man movie, and my 2nd favorite movie period. I love how well it holds up

[@BigB0ss00]

Thanks for letting us know you guys watched this movie before unlike a bunch of other reactors who would've lied and pretended it was their first time watching then make some subtle or not so subtle comments that make it seem like they watched the show/movie before

[@PettyPerkins]

Just came here after watching the reel rejects interview, and I'm so excited to see the reaction to this spiderman, bc it was also my fave superhero movie growing up!

[@abhinavbharali6268]

42:08 This part is a fantastic acting of the 5 stages of grief as portrayed by Willem Dafoe. It's amazing how much emotion he conveys in such a short amount of time. The way he transitions from denial to anger, depression, bargaining, and finally acceptance is truly masterful. This scene is a great reminder of the power of acting and the complexity of human emotions.

[@Yelnats87]

Man... I totally get it guys! I remember watching this in the theatres at 15. Glad to see its holds up! Memory lane vibes... indeed!

[@scottallen6160]

This film is the first successful live action depiction of Spider-Man. Hollywood tried a live action show in the ‘70’s but the practical effects weren’t enough to truly bring this iconic hero to life. Patience paid off. All the elements that were needed, finally became available to do it right. The success of these elements bringing a comic book hero to life paved the way for more heroes to finally live. Always fun watching your videos. ✌️😉💕

[@jennavalerius4051]

This is the first movie that my mother took me to see when it was in theaters after I was born. This is still my favorite Spider-Man. "With great power comes great responsibility"

[@SuperSmallZombie]

All through my childhood, like most, I adored Spider-Man. I grew up in a country where comic books were incredibly rare. But I had a vhs tape of the first season of the animated series. I watched it a hundred times. The movie came out when I was 11 years old. It was such a blessing. When, after the theater I walked home, I felt a slight emptiness because I didn't even know what else I could want, I was so happy to see that movie. Toby is forever the best spider man for me.

[@adrianoendomol-torady]

how nice to see this film again and with your comments in which you can feel the love you had as children, I saw it as an adult and I love it even more, greetings from Italy 😊
