I can't say I'm a huge fan of Iron Man Junior or totally-not-MJ-we-promise-wink-wink, but one thing about the Homecoming Spidey that made me squee like an idiot was his homemade hoodie/ski-mask costume, because way back during the first version of All-Star Marvel, I wrote a Spidey with a costume almost exactly like that. Put a big dumb grin on my big dumb face.

'Tis a strange day when picking Spider-Man 2 as the best Spider-Man film is picking a hill to die on. Alas.


I flip flop between Homecoming and 2 constantly, but lately I've found myself settling more and more on Homecoming. But hey, maybe it's recency bias.

For quite a while, I was right there with you. And honestly, I wouldn't put up much of an argument against it to this day.


Honestly I think the reason I like it so much is because I remember Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin better than Alfred Molina's Doc Ock. No clue why. Think it might be the hamminess of his delivery as Goblin.

Currently writing a one on one gun-fu battle between Punisher and a random assassin guy. So be on the look out for that, peeps.

And, uh, I'll just be the guy whose favorite Spidey movie was the first Raimi one.


Same, actually. I hold it and Homecoming in the same regard. The first Raimi film has a slight indie film quality that fits the character perfectly, and Willem Dafoe is extremely underrated as a perfect Green Goblin.

I never particularly felt like Tobey was a solid Peter Parker either – Holland I feel has a good script and good direction for both roles, but I think Garfield gets more criticism than he honestly deserves given what we had experienced [on film] with Spider-Man up to that point. We actually saw a Queens accent, the mainstream personality of Spider-Man, and some other aspects that Homecoming basically owes for getting the boat going cinematically speaking. Amazing Spider-Man had the wit, energy, and cast the character needed. It’s just a shame the studios got greedy and Garfield pissed off the wrong people. In another universe, it’d be Garfield in the MCU without any of the stupid Iron Man sidekick bullshit.

And it's a damn shame.


I'll hold my hands up and say I enjoyed Homecoming more than any of the Spider-Man movies we've been given. That said, I would have given the film more props if it had stuck to its guns with Peter rejecting the Iron Man suit at the end. Tony basically just giving him the suit afterwards difuses any real sort of growth in Peter's character. In the context of repurposing the ideas of power vs responsibility I'm fine with the suit and Iron Man being there. Most of the changes to the source material work for me, though Flash just seems mishandled more than miscast. For me personally there's more substance than just 'Spider-Man for the Twilight Crowd' which is all ASM really boiled down to for me.

And Vulture is great.
