Spider-Man:No Way Home

You know, all these years later, just looking back on No Way Home, I’m surprised Sony/Disney/Marvel had faith in their audience that they’d actually be able to comprehend the fact that there were 3 live-action Spider-Men (Spider-Man’s?) all sharing the screen ay the same time. Anyone else?

Wasn't it a big campaign to get them all together?

Yes huge and the Tobey hype was at an all time high

Nah. Audiences were accustomed to superhero sci-fi weirdness by then. Into the Spider-Verse really paved the way three years prior.

Yeah, but I obviously don’t need to tell you that comic books & tv shows and live-action films are VERY different mediums. So what works in one or two may NOT work in another.

It’s easier for audiences to understand than it is for characters. Millions of people had already watched Tobey and Andrew be Spider-Man before Tom, so for most people it doesn’t feel like they’re introducing something new. Throw Into the Spider-Verse in the mix and this becomes a concept that audiences have had many opportunities to adjust to.

There wasn’t “many opportunities to adjust to” by the time No Way Home came out though really. As far as I can remember, there was Evan Pietro in WandaVision and then no other changes besides obviously Into The SpiderVerse which obviously came out before WandaVision. So 2 opportunities to adjust to it. But then Quicksilver in WandaVision is literally manifested in Wandas psyche so does that really count?

Why did you have to say it? What need did you fulfill by saying it?

Wasn't really a deep question. Kinda just a surface-level search for information. But I appreciate the answer.

XavierScorpionIkari2025-10-20 16:23

You’re welcome.

I'm not entirely sure why the persistent sarcasm, either. Is this how your IRL conversations go? It's very off-putting.

XavierScorpionIkari2025-10-20 16:28

You started it. I could say the same for you. What need did it fill, replying to my comment?

Different versions of the same character meeting has been part of popular culture for decades. It was already a Spider-Man meme.

This is exactly the kind of idea that movie execs get behind easily.

Faith in nostalgia bait? That film was guaranteed to break even from fans of Raimi's Spider-Man alone. Money-wise that was the easiest payday until Deadpool & Wolverine.

We all saw it coming when the Multiverse Saga was introduced. As soon as we saw Evan Peters in WandaVision we just thought of the possibilites of more characters returning or entering the MCU. We're all waiting for old iterations of characters to return like Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, FOX X-Men, Wesley Snipes, and Jennifer Gardner. Whether they do it or not is what's going to make the movies flop.

thedarkryte2025-10-21 19:09

But like, it wasn’t even advertised that the older Spider-Men were going to be in the movie, so I just assume that it was successful because of word of mouth. Which makes all the sense in the world to me personally.

Audiences are awfully stupid, but they’re not that stupid.
