Looking at you, Michelle Jones.


Oh my God, Michelle. The time when the filmmaker didn't even have the guts to back his "twist" and immediately began the backpedal of, "Well, I mean, obviously she's not the MJ..."

Haha, like you said, easy to see coming. Though for an alternate MJ in another universe, I really don’t mind her.

Yeah, I'd respect it more if they had just said, "This is our MJ. Suck it, nerds." I may not like it, but I'd respect it.

I like Michelle a lot, but I also consider Homecoming my favorite Spidey film.

If it was a half-decent actress, I'd feel better.
If they hadn't done it in a hackneyed way, I'd feel better.
If they hadn't tried to lie about it and then backpedal, I'd feel better.

I wouldn't feel good about it, but I'd feel better.

I definitely disagree with this take. She's more than halfway decent.

Meh. If they had said, "Yea she's our MJ" people would lose their minds because "ZOMG BLACK AND NOT REDHEAD". If they said "Hey she's MJ but not the normal MJ you're used to" people would bitch about that. I'm fine with them doing what they did and then having a very comic-booky winky moment at the end

Yeah, Zendaya has come a long way since a crappy Disney sitcom about dancing. I think she has excellent timing and more range than she really should have.

Homecoming is probably the best Spider-Man movie for a lot of reasons, Zendaya's performance being one of them. That said, the main reason it's above Raimi's Spider-Man 2 is because of Michael Keaton.

I’m not sure I think Michael Keaton is better than Alfred Molina or not, honestly. The only problem I have with Molina’s Octavius is that he doesn’t have an obnoxious German accent.

I get *why* most people still think Spider-Man 2 is the best Spidey movie, but I just cannot abide by Raimi's version of Peter Parker.

Molina's performance is great, but I'm not a huge fan of "Actually the villain is a good guy and ______ just makes him a villain against his will!"

I like “good guy corrupted by technology/thing” approach, personally. But yeah I’m with you on Raimi’s Spider-Man ideas. I feel like they are boring as piss.

I'll forgive this blasphemy because Homecoming recreated ASM #33 damn near perfectly. (And because Homecoming is legitimately good.) But there's a few reasons I can't, in good conscience, call it the best Spider-Man film.

I'm about to cause more controversy. The Amazing Spider-Man is my favorite Spider-Film. I'm weird.

I'm actually right there with you.
ASM 2, definitely not. They fucked that up as badly as they did Spider-Man 3. But the first ASM was spot-on.
So, this one time, Mike, you're not weird. Just this once.

I had notes with good things to say about your writing, but now a mysterious masked gentleman has stolen them from me and is flushing them down a toilet. A shame, really.

Ugh. The Amazing series had so much potential. So much squandered, destroyed potential. The first 10 minutes or so of ASM2 is some of the best Spider-Man action on film. Too bad the rest of the film exists.
