Who is the best Spiderman?


Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, Tom Holland the actors who have been Spider-man on an live-action film. But who is the best Spider-Man? At the end it, could simply be answered by your generation. The three actors captured different audience and were special to fans in different ways. Tobey Maguire played Spider-Man from 2002-2007. Spider-Man (2002) became the first movie to reach $100 million in a single weekend. Also, at the time it was the most successful comic book based movie. Andrew Garfield played Spider-Man from 2012-2014. Didn't did great in the first film but the sequel did great. Too bad it wasn't enough to finish the trilogy and they cancelled The Amazing Spider-Man 3. Andrew deserved to at least finish his cycle as Spider-Man. Tom Holland played Spider-Man from from 2016-2021. (Might still continue with another trilogy) Tom Holland started as Spider-Man in Captain America Civil War and later appeared in other Marvel movies from the MCU. But his Trilogy went from 2017-2021. Now Tom Holland Trilogy didn't do that good. In numbers and sales it went great but in viewers reception his movies lacked the classic Spider-Man characteristics. He was portrayed too childish but had the support of the successful MCU movies. They are all Great but I believe Tobey's better. Honestly for me is not just nostalgia. Maybe it was luck but Tobey was in a better project than the rest. Spider-Man 2002 was a standalone project. Still during that time Superheroes movies were heavily criticized and weren't even considered Actual movies for Producers, Actors and Viewers. Yet, it managed to capture A LOT of attention and was very successful at Box-office and Viewers reviews. Many people identified with Peter Parker and some didn't even knew who Spider-Man was. Kids through adults alike. Also was very comic Accurate compared to the rest. Yeah had some adaptations but overall Accurate. So the production and Tobey Maguire as the protagonist definitely did something right. Now, Andrew's Spider-Man was shadowed as replacing past the successful Spider-Man. Even do he did Great, he kind of mainly captured Teenagers audience. For me Amazing Spider-Man 2 was very good but can't say the same about the 1st one. The Amazing Spider-Man 1 lacks many Spider-man virtues. We saw a more cooky Peter Parker and with some inner contained anger because of his parents. But The Amazing Spider-Man 2 saved this Spider-Man. They showed a more accurate Spider-Man starting with the costume. On the 1st movie the costume was completely changed and had this annoyed or angry feelings. But on the sequel Andrew's Spider-Man had a completely change. The costume was more accurate and Spider-man had a more comedy side. Spider-Man was more funny and the Plot between Peter and Gwen was build up carefully and left a great impact in the audience. Now, Tom Holland also did Amazing. But he was already backup by the MCU. But his movies plots/scripts were very weak. Mostly because Sony wouldn't allow Marvel to work freely. Tom Holland's Spider-Man was very childish and many times intervene with the character development. Ironically they avoided Retelling the origin story tin other to present a new take on Spider-Man. But at the end the whole trilogy just worked as Tom Holland's Spider-Man origin story. Tom Holland as Spider-Man alone was great. His fight scenes, swinging everything he did alone was great. The problem came when they involved him with the childish plot of his friends or silly events. Homecoming was pretty bad. IronMan & Vulture took the Spotlight in 1st movie. The second one Far From Home was much better. They included more comic accurate events and Mysterio character was just perfect. Now the last movie, well it was a fan service and his Spider-Man FINALLY mature. Definitely the best of the trilogy. They are all Great in different ways. But with Tobey's Spider-Man and Peter Parker, kids to adults identified with him. Even people who didn't know or like Spider-Man acknowledge Tobey's work and the movie in general. Andrew's Spider-Man captured more teenagers audience and Tom Holland captured more kids audience. But now as we see a more Matured Spider-Man from Tom Holland people will eventually identify with him more since it's backup by the MCU plus Spider-Man will confront tougher threats. Also, Tom Holland will be Spider-Man for way longer than the rest reaching more generations. At least 6 movies own movies plus all the other MCU movies he has and will continue to appear in.

There are still rumors that 3 actors will continue as Spider-Man. Honestly I would have love to see the matured Spider-Man developed on the MCU. The creative team is more eager to be comic accurate and give fans what they want. The Sony movies had been just ok but I feel that's because Marvel help. Leaving Sony alone for the movies might not be a good idea. Sony focus more on Sales than quality. Venom movies were ok but lack more content. Besides they completely change the Venom origins the movie was fun but didn't had much. Yet, Spider-Man might be allow to do more Tougher plots outside the MCU. No Way Home left the story as if Spider-Man will finally mature. Who knows what's going to happen. Also, they confirmed Tom Holland for another Trilogy. But Tom Holland keeps giving that impression that he wants out but sometimes as if he is eager to continue. I believe Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield were going to continue on Sony with some guest appearances in MCU while Tom Holland continued in the MCU. But who knows. Rumors put Tobey Maguire in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. They put Andrew Garfield in talks to finish his third Amazing Spider-Man movie and rumors that Tom Holland's Spider-Man will appear with Charlie Cox Daredevil. In fact, Tom Holland even suggested Timothee Chalamet as Harry Osborne.
