Why Tom Holland Is The Worst Spider-Man (ft. the other Spider-Man characters)

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

I blame the writers more than Tom Holland. He did a great job in Civil War

[@JPShadow47]

I agree. I wish his story had build up from being an independent hero then join the Avengers. I know the writers were thinking that viewers would get tired seeing Uncle Ben being the main focus for Peter to become Spider-Man but him being Iron Man's apprentice I feel wasn't really needed.

[@UndertakerU2ber]

I thought his debut appearance in Civil War was godawful. All of the “humor” attached to his character is just him being painfully awkward and him acting like an autistic kid with ADHD. He was obnoxious even if his character is supposed to be that of a high schooler, and it felt like Tony Stark was babysitting a second grader rather than having deputized an adolescent that’s unfamiliar with the Avengers-level playing field.

I get that in Homecoming, Tom Holland's spiderman was supposed to be young and naive but in the later movies they just made him stupid. His idiotic decisions in No Way Home seem selfish and childish. Isn't Peter Parker supposed to be intelligent? Difficult to relate to his spiderman because the decisions he made are the kind of the decisions that someone who lived a privileged life would make. And that's not Peter Parker.

[@omarmansour6766]

You sir, have no idea who Spider-Man is. The genius behind the MCU, that no one appreciates, is that they were the first ones (in live action or cartoon) that showed how Spider-Man was in the first 28 issues of his comics. Aka the ditko high school era. Spider-Man doesn’t start as an inspiration in these comics, Spider-Man starts off as an unlucky frustrated little kid, who constantly tries to proof himself, and constantly fights an unfair world. It’s was also silly, entertaining, and very comic, because when Stan Lee started writing Spider-Man, he wrote his stories as a gag because he was so sick of the stuff he used to write all the years before he started the Marvel heroes. They were stories full of silliness, and cheesy situations, sprinkled with serious criminal drama. And that’s exactly how it is in the MCU. For example, you'll see Spiderman making plenty of mistakes like in homecoming and far from home. You'll see peter arresting criminals before they do a robbery and they call the police and him just standing there like an idiot (homecoming vibe), you'll see him getting scammed and being played by mysterio (far frome home vibe), you'll see him having an adventure with Dr. Strange around the time of his graduation (No way Home vibe), you'll see him comparing himself to johnny storm and and the fantastic 4 (like he does with Tony and the avengers in the MCU), you'll see him doing naive things like trying to cash in a check without writing his name (homecoming vibe), there is no Mary Jane, Harry Osborne, or Gwen Stacy in the ditko era (same as MCU), his life has completely changed at the end of no way home like it kinda did at the end of issue 28, Uncle Ben is barely mentioned (once or twice) in the first 30 issues (exactly like the home trilogy). There are no real consequences in the ditko era during high school (there are no real Consequences in homecoming and far from home), Peter is a happy go lucky kid who enjoys being Spiderman and sometimes thinks irresponsibly because he's just a teenager (unlike the raimi movies and just like the MCU). Peter's identity was in crisis in issue 12 (and it was in crisis in the home trilogy). The high school and friends interactions are heavily emphasized in the ditko comics (unlike the raimi and Webb movies and just like in the MCU). The things the MCU made different from the comics have a very good reason to, like making Tony stark build him the suit (a story telling tool that shows the evolution of Peter Parker until he makes his own suit, highlighting the growth and maturity of the character) Aunt May has a way more satisfying arc in the MCU than she did in the comics (by making her younger and more important to Peter). Peter having EDITH (to emphasize Peter's terrible luck in no way home and to be used by mysterio to frame him just like in the comics). So it’s sad that the most comic accurate Spider-Man we ever got is the most hated and the most underrated :(

[@omarmansour6766]

@Warfox Exactly.

[@omarmansour6766]

@Warfox What makes Spider-Man great is his evolution, look at how he started out in civil war and homecoming, and look at where his now. That’s exactly how it was in Stan Lee’s original run. Like at how Spider-Man is in issues 1-4 and look at how he is in issue 34. Then look at how he is in issue 50. Tremendous character development. It’s as if he is a different person. And the MCU emulated that perfectly with the wall crawler. Fans will ruin the Spider-Man character if they controlled him. Spider-Man is not for all people. Most people are dumb and bullies. Spider-Man is for bully victims, Spider-Man is for people who constantly get misunderstood, Spider-Man is for people who might accidentally lose their nerves and then people exaggeratedly judges them. That’s how MCU Peter is like, a frustrated kid who life constantly shuts down, and screws things up more than he saves things, and is being judged negatively by everyone…from iron man himself to J Jonah Jameson to the public. And fans say “he’s iron man jr” fans are so unbelievably dumb.

[@juicebox7372]

@Warfox I don't care that he's a tech character I care that he has to ride off of someone else. Spiderman has always been a one man band besides the casual team ups. He doesn't make cool qips anymore he makes stupid pop-culture references I don't know if you know this but we kids AREN'T ACTUALLY LIKE THAT. They took away his common sense something that he usually has, spiderman is supposed to be some type of child prodigy Edit:I feel that Mcu spiderman is at his best when there is no iron man involved he only ever made pop-culter references around him and his whole entire personality seems to revolve around tony when he's around I liked the last mcu 2 spiderman movies honestly but the first one and spiderman's first introduction not my vibe.

I actually thought Tom Holland was fine. He's not my favorite, but I didn't think he was bad. A lot of these issues come down to subjective issues you take with the character. Your first one being that he's a kid? I mean, in the comics AND in the Toby McGuire movies he was a high school student starting out, ya know? Why can't he look and sound like one? (lord knows Toby didn't look much like he was in high school in the first movie) And as for the heroes talking down to him, well yes...because he's inexperienced and he's walking into a world he barely understands. That was the character arc for the hero: A young kid who dreams of being on par with the Avengers but is a rookie and needs to learn to not only handle his powers, but also learn what it means to be someone who can stand among giants. The David learning how to face Goliath. He makes mistakes. He makes poor choices. He has to suffer for them. But by No Way Home, he actually finishes his character story arc and comes into his own as a hero. The way you talk about it, I have to wonder...what if a teenage boy in high school DID get superpowers and wanted to be a superhero? Would you say he couldn't because he was too young and superhero work is an adult thing, only reserved for people over 21? You have to be old enough to drink to fight crime? XD

[@remc0s]

Stan Lee created Spider-Man as an anti-thesis to other 15-year old super heroes. Whereas they were always sidekicks to adult super heroes, Stan Lee made Spider-Man his own man who made his own costume and web-shooters. Besides the occasional team up to boost sales, Spider-Man never needed mentors or sidekicks. That is until the MCU decided to turn Peter Parker into a typical Gen Z kid who worships Steve Jobs and Elon Musk-like tech moguls and made him a pathetic Tony Stark fanboy ("Yes, Mr. Stark. No, Mr. Stark"). Tony basically tells Peter that if he wants to be a serious super hero, he NEEDS to upgrade to a Stark tech Spider-Man suit and web-shooters. This is why i don't like Holland's Spider-Man; he is basically Iron Spider and too dependent on Tony Stark. In defense of the "childish" spider symbol; this is actually how John Romita designed and drew the original Spider-Man costume and it has been drawn like that in both the comics and cartoons for decades. It actually IS iconic, unlike the modern spider designs you praise so much. Also, Peter Parker became Spider-Man when he was just 15, so Tom Holland is not too young, Maguire and Garfield are too old. This is exactly my problem with people who only watch comic book movies and shows while never having read the actual comic books (as REAL fans would): They always complain about things that are actually correct.

[@vasilkousev3057]

That's the best comment here. Dude's whole video is based on nostalgia, his obvious hatred towards Tom as an actor or a person or idk and he has ZERO comic book knowledge. The only argument that could be valid is the Tony Stark hardcore influence over those 3 movies. Thank god they fixed it at the end of NWH.. hopefully we will see some real Spidey next time.

[@windandcloudshadow158]

True Peter Parker was only 15 but he was also very nerdy and almost a boy genius something I never got from Tom same with Maguire and Andrew I very much like them all for different reasons I also think it was a very bad idea to have Spiderman be a sidekick to Tony that was just lazy writing trying to make Tony the center of all mcu which I hated as well lol.

I think people forget that Spider-Man in the comic books idolized the Fantastic Four like MCU Spider-Man idolized Iron Man. Just like in the issue #3 of The Amazing Spider-Man Peter talked about how the Human Torcj wouldn't have failed against Doc Ock and then the Human Torch changes his perspective and tells him that he isn't so good as Peter thinks and he has his insecurities too; note that Far From Home mirrored this in the scene with the talk Happy gave to Peter I highly recommend this video that gets deeper about how good this trilogy adaptates the highschool era of Spider-Man in the comics

Peter also saves the day with his homemade suit and not the Tony suit. Far from home and no way home lean way too much into the typical MCU spectacle where as homecoming is more grounded and realistic.

But Flash thompson wasn't the goofy small version of a bully. THe character was celarly defined. Let the character remain the chracters.....that waht made them good in the first place.

You sir, have no idea who Spider-Man is. The genius behind the MCU, that no one appreciates, is that they were the first ones (in live action or cartoon) that showed how Spider-Man was in the first 28 issues of his comics. Aka the ditko high school era. Spider-Man doesn’t start as an inspiration in these comics, Spider-Man starts off as an unlucky frustrated little kid, who constantly tries to proof himself, and constantly fights an unfair world. It’s was also silly, entertaining, and very comic, because when Stan Lee started writing Spider-Man, he wrote his stories as a gag because he was so sick of the stuff he used to write all the years before he started the Marvel heroes. They were stories full of silliness, and cheesy situations, sprinkled with serious criminal drama. And that’s exactly how it is in the MCU. For example, you'll see Spiderman making plenty of mistakes like in homecoming and far from home. You'll see peter arresting criminals before they do a robbery and they call the police and him just standing there like an idiot (homecoming vibe), you'll see him getting scammed and being played by mysterio (far frome home vibe), you'll see him having an adventure with Dr. Strange around the time of his graduation (No way Home vibe), you'll see him comparing himself to johnny storm and and the fantastic 4 (like he does with Tony and the avengers in the MCU), you'll see him doing naive things like trying to cash in a check without writing his name (homecoming vibe), there is no Mary Jane, Harry Osborne, or Gwen Stacy in the ditko era (same as MCU), his life has completely changed at the end of no way home like it kinda did at the end of issue 28, Uncle Ben is barely mentioned (once or twice) in the first 30 issues (exactly like the home trilogy). There are no real consequences in the ditko era during high school (there are no real Consequences in homecoming and far from home), Peter is a happy go lucky kid who enjoys being Spiderman and sometimes thinks irresponsibly because he's just a teenager (unlike the raimi movies and just like the MCU). Peter's identity was in crisis in issue 12 (and it was in crisis in the home trilogy). The high school and friends interactions are heavily emphasized in the ditko comics (unlike the raimi and Webb movies and just like in the MCU). The things the MCU made different from the comics have a very good reason to, like making Tony stark build him the suit (a story telling tool that shows the evolution of Peter Parker until he makes his own suit, highlighting the growth and maturity of the character) Aunt May has a way more satisfying arc in the MCU than she did in the comics (by making her younger and more important to Peter). Peter having EDITH (to emphasize Peter's terrible luck in no way home and to be used by mysterio to frame him just like in the comics).

[@Mr_Wayne2012]

too goddamn young Stan Lee said "I can't believe it. It's as if we created a living being to be Spider-Man, and it turned out to be Tom." Tom's Peter as opposed to Tobey or Andrew who were 17 to 20 during their movies. Tom is just 14 years old during Civil War. and is just 17 during No Way Home ending. He looks like a boy of that age of that age. Unlike Tobey and his class who were all guys in their late 30s playing "17 year olds", they literally all seemed to be the same age as their teacher. Tom and his class do look like young people between 14 and 17 years old, it is assumed that Spidey in his original comics was 15 years old when the spider bit him. Furthermore, the fact that the other heroes who are clearly older adults are reproaching a CHILD for things is nothing strange, even when it comes to Spider-Man. Spider-Man is not the mdf Batman, a serious man who leads the heroes. He's just a random guy like you and me and especially in this version, he's just a guy under 18 in a world with heroes who are in their 30s and 40s, it's common sense. Obviously when Peter grows up and is an adult he will stop being seen as a child and will be an equal to other heroes of his generation, literally this is what happens in the comics where he has had his problems with Ironman. We literally see a bit of this in NWH, we see Peter oppose Strange and confront him, in a fight of ideals in which Peter wins. Also, what kind of hypocritical argument is that? With that rule of 3, what the hell is the Raimiverse doing treating Peter Parker/Spider-Man, one of Marvel comics' greatest heroes, like an idiot? A fool who gets everything right wrong, he is unfaithful to his girlfriend and then they are unfaithful to him? a common loser? Where is the brilliant mind of Marvel and the Hero he should be? You never saw the movies, "in these movies they treat him like an Ironman apprentice." WTF?In Civil War Peter literally refuses to help Stark at all times, it is not until Tony messes with his aunt and tells him that he will tell him his secret that Peter decides to help him, he does not decide to go help him because "oh my god "If Stark I'm going to be like him," he does it for May. Of course, like any boy his age, he gets excited about the trip and the experience. In Homecoming Peter literally rejects Ironman and the Avengers to be his own hero, to be Spider-Man, not Ironman Jr. In Far From Home, after pressure from people, he feels that everyone places him as "the new Ironman", which confuses and stresses him because he doesn't know if that could be it. In the end Happy makes him remember the facts, he is not and will not be like Ironman, he must be Spider-Man, Peter reacts and makes a new suit. And in NWH there is literally no Stark influence whatsoever. Now, the suit, the design of the suit is really subjective. To be fair, Tom's is the one most attached to the comics, the web is supposed to be from the design of the suit, not a metal web that surrounds and protrudes from the entire suit like Raimi and Webb did. The difference in why everything goes wrong for Tom and not for the other 2. It's because he's only 14/15 years old. Tobey was 19 in his second film and Andrew was almost 20 years old. You cannot compare the effectiveness of a young man who is almost 20 years old with that of a child who is just entering puberty.

That magic scene with thanos was hilarious

[@riaali9429]

I liked him at first and i thought he could be my 2nd favorite but over time I realize I prefer Andrew and Tobey over Tom. There's nothing wrong with Spiderman being a kid. In fact I was excited they were going in a younger rookie direction. But they dont seem to want him to grow. And I guess it's kind of hard to, because tom will always seem 15/16 years old. If he was actually that young when he started and was able to grow with the movies. I think Tom would be fine. But after watching no way home I completely realised how much more I enjoyed the other spidermen/old villians returning than I did Toms portions of the movie. And the other characters are hands down the worst. Tom and Zendaya are better in real life as a couple than peter and mj. Flash is a dork. Aunt may meant little to nothing. Ned is cool.

[@John-ct9zs]

He might have looked 15-16 in Civil War back in 2016, but no way is Tom's Spidey from No Way Home a 15 year old boy. Dude looks like a grown man in his 20s, and Tom is a 25 or 26 year old.

[@spider-man500]

MCU fanboys claim we hate a young and youthful Spider-Man. Those air heads never saw the problem. I like a youthful, young Spider-Man, Heck it's the only reason I got excited for him before Civil War came out. Thought we would get a nice adaption of Ultimate Spider-Man. The problem is the world around him. Daddy Stark, the terribly inaccurate side characters, the abandoning of his origin story and Uncle Ben. It just sucks ass. And they all do this because "it's more realistic for the MCU" fuck no it isn't. It's just to squeeze him into the MCU to the MCU's modern standards. The right way to have gone with the character would of gone like this; (Sidenote; he never appeared in Civil War. This predates that movie, and his side characters are completely different. Ned doesn't have the same role, and Aunt May isn't like the MCU version) Spider-Man Homecoming Re-write. - Peter Parker, months after the death of Uncle Ben, is only now starting to truly get better, if onlt a little bit. Months of fighting criminals as Spider-Man in his homemade suit, he has started to get the hang of it a bit, but in the grand scheme of things, his help goes unnoticed in the eyes of New York due to the large population of Superheroes, namely the Avengers fighting world ending threats. But a new threat arrives in the form of Vulture, a sly and bitter individual using his tech to make his way in the world, by threatening anyone and every who treated him and his family badly. Peter ever so eager to prove his worth, seeks to beat his first supervillain, but gets a head of himself when he not only gets clumsy as Spider-Man in his eagerness, but forgets about his life as Peter with Aunt May, his only living relative and mother figure(Though he hasn't said this yet) and absent in his school life as well. Through all this, he leans to noe focus on his pride as a standout hero, but by following his Uncle's words. With a new mindset, he finally stops the Vulture the RIGHT way, without caring about standing out, and return home, to focus, listen and get involved in his life; to Aunt May, and as Peter Parker as a whole. This makes so much more sense because it does three things; 1: It still puts him in a superhero infested world 2: it starts him off in his very youthful and careless stage 3: Despite all this, it's about him learning to be more responsible in a much more Peted Parker way, on his own terms without other heroes, NO TONY STARK SITUATION. (It doesn't HAVE TO be exactly like this, but I find this kind of route to be much more inline with the character while still existing in the MCU.) I have rewrites for the rest of the trilogy and his roles in his other appearances.

Peter played a massive role in Civil War, he joined Tony's side, revealed his identity which almost got MJ and Aunt May killed leading to Peter joining Caps side and becoming a fugitive.

@@MrPikaGammer I am well aware of the COMIC Civil War. And I wanted the movie to be like that, but because of the way the movie went, there is only so much I can change within the MCU regarding Spidey. We would have to completely change the MCU as a whole to make the movie more like the comic.

[@Jdudec367]

Stark isn't an issue though. The side characters are fine and they are accurate enough. They didn't abandon anything. It's not all bad. Not true...they do it to make things more interesting. There is no "right way" there are many ways to make the character work well including how he was written in the MCU. All of that is in the MCU including 3 for the most part.

[@Nightbanekaizer]

By the end of the video your saying Tom Holland's spiderman suit is the most comic accurate. I disagree. Because despite Toby's and Andrew's suits looking like they're made of cool fabrics and their logos have a cool sharp design, those versions are more closer to classic spiderman than Tom Holland's. Sure Tom makes a new suit by the end of No Way Home that's a complete nod to the comics but it doesn't impress me with its visuals. Even PS1 games had Spiderman looking cool. Granted the first game missed the web lines. But the second showed how much better Spidey was becoming.

[@JayX2099YT]

His newest suit at the end of no way home is probably the most comic accurate suit after Andrews tasm2 suit, that's just my opinion tho

I may be a couple years late for this video but I’m glad I’m not alone! What really ruins it is the fandom in general because every time I bring up the issues of the Tom Holland version I’m usually greeted with responses about how he’s the most “comic” accurate mainly because he’s a high schooler and the way his eyes on the mask move! Plus their comparisons of Maguire and Garfield now it’s like all of sudden I’m a being called a hater because I don’t like the MCU Spiderman movies in comparison with the other 5 movies!

[@funtimefoxygamer1295]

The first superhero movie I ever saw was Tobey Maguires Spider-Man 1 and he’s my favourite spider-man since he sticks with canon and an amazing actor and the story for spider-man was the best in my opinion and Andrew Garfield in my opinion is the second best for the sticking with comics like Tobey’s movies

[@sdseals2076]

Spiderman is a teenager, and I would not expect him to have the money for a high-tech suit.

[@Jayphil1]

I found it odd in No Way Home how reckless Peter Parker was. The entire conflict was basically caused by his decisions. It was a good movie but only for fan service and not much else

[@Hewasnumber1]

Wasn’t even good fanservice. I hated how they made bad jokes about genuinely important plot moment in previous, better movies. For example: when they made a joke about Harry’s death, I actually wanted to tear my hair out. You DON’T make jokes about the depressing death of the protagonist’s best friend!

[@davedarius7346]

Yes, their trick to hide the big flaws was by bringing Tobey and Andrew back, that was their smoke screen and it WORKED!
