1; A good Jonah and Peter, believable enough, and I don't like Toby as an actor.

2; Great fight scenes, Molina stole the show with his Doc Oc.

3; Probably the biggest trash ever, three villains, horrible black suit segment, and Topher Grace as Venom....at that point Raimi quit.

I realize they sucked back then, but then I also realized these movies are for an audience that is one part soccer mom, one part child, and one part cringey nerd in real life. A lot of what Parker represents isn't only the underdog, but the simps we all knew in High School and at work. The majority of the populous aren't cool like T'Challa, or witty like Iron Man....they're quiet nerds/type b personalities, who live vicariously though great people. So in that essence, the movies are stellar, still cringey but "fun".

I prefer Andrew Garfield.

Not much a fan of the Rami flicks. Part 1 is ok but Tobey sucks. Rami also gets too campy and I know that's his thing but just always felt the movies were way too cheesy.

I do remember how anticipated part 1 was, I had been waiting for that movie for years, so it was cool when it first dropped but hasn't aged well.
