My Revolution of PARTs

Even nearly half a year after its debut, Spider-Man: No Way Home remains one of the hottest topics in the movie industry. Thanks to Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and a handful of their villains officially joining the MCU, the franchise’s third Spider-Man solo outing became the biggest crossover event since Avengers: Endgame . Garfield and Maguire’s long-awaited inclusion in this film helped break the internet at every turn which continues to be the case long after the threequel’s late 2021 debut. Fans have gotten a look at the CGI work that helped bring them back from their solo movies while hearing about how their relationship is becoming closer than ever off-camera. ADVERTISEMENT The two have played as big of a role in merchandising as they did in the story, with clothing items and more promoting their arrival as soon as a week after No Way Home debuted in theaters. Now, as fans enjoy the story via digital release and Blu-ray, a big name in the col...

Marvel Studios is still riding off the highs of Spider-Man: No Way Home , which became the sixth highest grossing movie in history and changed the game for the superhero genre. Now, even with Doctor Strange 2  looming over the horizon for the MCU, Marvel fans have their attention on July's Thor: Love and Thunder , whose promotional tour just showed its first signs of life. Chris Hemsworth's fourth solo movie just delivered its first trailer, and even though it broke the record for shortest promotional tour in MCU history, the footage made its mark on fans quickly. The 89 seconds of material showcased just how wild Thor's first story in a post- Avengers: Endgame world will be, shining a light on both the Earthly and cosmic themes pushing the MCU forward. ADVERTISEMENT Thor: Love and Thunder will tie in heavily to its surrounding MCU counterparts, most notably including Endgame and next year's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 . The sequel...

Spider-Man: No Way Home  arguably had the most anticipation-fueled build-up to release in movie history. In large part, that came down to the promises of a Multiversal event with rumors of returning fan favorites, but the Far From Home 's dramatic cliffhanger   in which Mysterio revealed Peter Parker's identity to the world was also a major factor. After Tom Holland's Peter Parker was able to overcome Mysterio's illusions with the help of his Peter-tingle, Jake Gyllenhaal's villain threw one last twist into the mix as he outed Spider-Man's identity and accused him of murder. These loose ends were integral to the opening of  No Way Home , as Charlie Cox's Daredevil was called in for legal support, but he quickly faded away as the focus shifted to the Multiversal chaos. ADVERTISEMENT With the world torn in allegiances between Spider-Man and Mysterio, the movie revealed the villain had maintained a strong cult following, shown by...

Spider-Man: No Way Home  just wrapped up the most successful theatrical run since  Avengers: Endgame , a true testament to just how high excitement was for the threequel. The long-awaited return of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, as well as five of their classic villains, sent three generations of Marvel fans flocking to theaters, many multiple times. As the movie finally gets its digital and physical home release,  No Way Home  currently sits at a box office total of $1.89 billion, the sixth-highest in history. The theatrical run even maintained success for so long that it led Sony to delay its latest Marvel flick,  Morbius . ADVERTISEMENT Now that the Multiverse event is finally available for home viewing, many moviegoers will be sitting down for only their second viewing. But that isn't the case for one dedicated Spider-Fan, who just broke the world record for the most theatrical viewings of a movie. Do You Think You're a Spider-Man Fan? T...

It was rumored near the end of 2020 that there was interest, likely from Sony, for Tom Hardy's Eddie Brock and Venom to have a role in Spider-Man: No Way Home . However, when asked by the press about this rumor, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige played coy about Venom's inclusion in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In the post-credit scene of Venom: Let There Be Carnage , it was finally confirmed to fans that one of Parker's biggest villains had seemingly arrived in the MCU. But, hilariously, when No Way Home was released in theaters, one of its post-credit scenes immediately booted Brock out of the MCU, only leaving a tiny piece of the symbiote behind and having no involvement whatsoever with the plot. ADVERTISEMENT After previously mentioning that Venom was considered for the Spidey threequel's final confrontation, co-writer Chris McKenna has now revealed a few more details about the version of the plot had the head-biting anti-hero a...

Spider-Man: No Way Home  is a celebration of all things Spider-Man. The Tom Holland-led threequel included a plethora of callbacks to previous web-slinging films, which includes Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man trilogy and Andrew Garfield's pair of The Amazing Spider-Man movies. This all became possible due to the film's use of the Multiverse, bringing back the two Spider-Men and several iconic villains like Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin and Alfred Molina's Doctor Octopus.  One films that was heavily referenced in the threequel was 2004's  Spider-Man 2 . Aside from Molina's emotional comeback as Doc Ock, No Way Home  also included other Easter eggs such as the character's iconic  "The power of the sun in the palm of my hand"  line, as well as alluding to Maguire's Peter Parker having back issues.  ADVERTISEMENT Now, another hidden reference to the 2004 superhero film has been unearthed. No Way Home Includes a Spid...

Spider-Man: No Way Home is the Marvel Cinematic Universe's most recent theatrical release, having broken box office records and the internet alike upon its long-awaited debut in December 2021. With nearly two and a half hours of thrilling action from start to finish, fans couldn't get enough of the threequel as it became the sixth-highest grossing movie in box office history. Now, the time has come for its physical Blu-ray release. Over the past few weeks, Sony and Marvel have shared new looks into how this once-in-a-generation movie came to be, bringing together heroes and villains from all across the Multiverse. This includes everything from high-definition photos of its main stars to multiple hidden details in No Way Home 's script, although fans are looking forward to more on the Blu-ray disc as well. ADVERTISEMENT The Blu-ray disc was said to hold more than two dozen extras and featurettes, including numerous scenes that were deleted fr...

Marvel fans are currently gearing up for the next massive MCU crossover event in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , which will bring other powerful heroes into play like Wanda Maximoff and America Chavez. This comes as the next theatrical movie from Marvel Studios after 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home , the MCU's next line-up in its Multiversal story.  Although No Way Home ended up being the movie that opened the Multiverse for the first time, it was initially supposed to come to theaters after Doctor Strange 2 . After the two films switched places in the MCU timeline, Marvel was forced to make some major changes to No Way Home 's story so that it could still include the Multiversal villains and heroes that drove its plot. ADVERTISEMENT One of the biggest changes came with removing America Chavez, who was initially supposed to make an appearance alongside the web-slinger after being introduced to the Master of the Mystic Arts. Rec...

Spider-Man: No Way Home  was a true rollercoaster for fans, both in terms of the movie itself and the run-up to release. Ever since the dramatic cliffhanger of  Far From Home  saw Peter Parker's heroic identity revealed to the world, MCU enthusiasts couldn't wait to see what was next. But the picture of Tom Holland's third MCU outing changed dramatically when Alfred Molina's Doc Ock was confirmed to be returning along with Jamie Foxx's Electro. The end result was a Multiverse blockbuster packed with excitement, nostalgia, and fan-favorite characters, which changed the game of the MCU forever. Celebrating three generations of Spider-Man meant not just bringing the three legendary Peter Parkers together, but also reuniting heroes and villains of the past for the first time in years. ADVERTISEMENT These moments, such as Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man standing opposite with Alfred Molina's Doc Ock, proved to be emotional for audiences...

In the pantheon of Marvel villains to appear on screen, Alfred Molina's Doc Ock has long been among the best due to his role in 2004's Spider-Man 2 . Seventeen years later, the ambitious, multi-limbed scientist was the first of Sony's former Spidey villains to appear on the big screen in Spider-Man: No Way Home ; but this time, Molina's Ock wasn't just redeemed but cured.  While No Way Home succeeded in bringing all three Spider-Man franchises together, as well as providing some closure, fans are already asking for more. In addition to the push for Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man 4 , the fan demand for Andrew Garfield's The Amazing Spider-Man 3  has become a bit of a movement. ADVERTISEMENT If Sony and/or Marvel choose to revive these former web-slingers once more, the question is whether their signature villains will return as well; and if so, can audiences also expect more Norman Osborn or Molina's Doctor Otto Octavius?  Al...

Spider-Man: No Way Home saw the return of more than half a dozen characters from past Spidey blockbusters, including Willem Dafoe as the original Green Goblin from 2002's Spider-Man . After Tom Holland battled Michael Keaton's Vulture and Jake Gyllenhaal's Mysterio in his first two outings, Dafoe brought a new level of fear for the young hero in his third MCU solo appearance. The man behind the Green Goblin made his mark on the world of superhero movies with No Way Home , setting the record for the longest Marvel career in history, alongside his Spidey co-star Tobey Maguire. Even more impressive was that Dafoe took the opportunity to deliver an even more revered performance this time around, especially after ditching the mask he wore for his first movie 20 years ago. ADVERTISEMENT That performance largely came through alongside Holland, as the MCU's Spidey and the Goblin engaged in some of the most brutal physical battles seen in any liv...

Spider-Man: No Way Home broke the Multiverse wide open, giving fans a preview of the concept of alternate realities. While Peter Parker's identity crisis has already been resolved, the problem now shifts to Benedict Cumberbatch's titular sorcerer. Upon helping the young Marvel hero, Doctor Strange unknowingly destabilized the Multiverse, thus leading to the events of Multiverse of Madness .  Given the two films' strong connections, there's a chance that the sequel will include references to the Tom Holland-led movie.  ADVERTISEMENT In the months leading to the film's premiere, Cumberbatch defended Doctor Strange casting that reality-breaking spell for Parker, pointing out that the teenage web-head did interfere with the spell  "something like six times"  while also admitting that  "it's not all arrogance" and it's a " very calculated risk." The MCU veteran also commented on how the Doctor Stran...

Spider-Man: No Way Home remains one of the biggest blockbuster movies on the planet, even more than three months after its theatrical debut. Thanks to elements and characters from Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's worlds joining the MCU through the Multiverse, the threequel still remains one of the hottest topics in Hollywood. Part of what made No Way Home such a spectacle was seeing Maguire and Garfield reprise their respective Spider-Men, particularly after the latter denied that being the case for the better part of 2021. It went beyond them simply showing up too, as they played key supporting roles in the third act to help Tom Holland's Peter set everything straight in his universe and theirs alike. ADVERTISEMENT While fans are already clamoring to see more of Maguire and Garfield's web-slingers, there was a real sense of satisfaction from how involved they were in No Way Home 's story, particularly in the final battle. Now, a fan...

At the core of speculation from both before and after the release of Spider-Man: No Way Home is Doctor Strange's botched spell. While audiences know it led to Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Spider-Men, along with their slew of web-slinging baddies, coming into the MCU, the question remains as to whether other Multiversal events are to blame? Or whether Strange, played by Benedict Cumberbatch, is responsible for breaking the Multiverse. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is expected to answer these questions; and from what fans have seen from the trailers and TV spots, the leading theory is that the former Sorcerer Supreme will be held accountable for his recklessness in the Spidey threequel.  ADVERTISEMENT However, Doctor Strange's own Benedict Cumberbatch has a different take on the matter and a tease or two about what audiences can expect from his upcoming film.  Cumberbatch Defends Strange & Points to Spider-Man's M...

Marvel Studios has sat comfortably at the forefront of Hollywood popularity for over a decade now. With only a few exceptions, most of the MCU's 27 theatrical entries have achieved great financial and critical success, but there's one area they've always struggled with: critical awards. The one area the franchise has always annually received recognition for is its visual effects but it has yet to actually win in the category. Black Panther  proved to be the exception to Marvel Studios' annual awards snub as the influential blockbuster picked up nominations for its costumes, music, sound, and production design. But most notably, the Ryan Coogler film earned the MCU its first Best Picture nomination at the 2019 Oscars.  ADVERTISEMENT Spider-Man: No Way Home  was the subject of repeated calls to be recognized in the 2022 Oscars for categories such as Best Picture, Actor, and more. After being snubbed of a nomination for everything but Best V...

Spider-Man: No Way Home  recently brought to an end the first complete wall-crawler trilogy in over a decade. For the first time yet, Sony and Marvel Studios' ground-breaking deal allowed Spider-Man to interact with all corners of the Marvel world. Across the trilogy, Holland's Peter Parker ran into Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man, Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury, Cobie Smulders' Maria Hill, Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange, and even the Department of Damage Control. Marvel once had big plans for Damage Control as ABC planned to develop a half-hour, single-camera comedy series starring the government agency as a group of underpaid workers clean up the fallout of superhero conflicts. Unfortunately, after an unsuccessful and unaired pilot,  Damage Control  never saw the light of day, having been planned to air in 2016. ADVERTISEMENT The government department later made their MCU debut in 2017's  Spider-Man: Homecoming  to salvag...

Morbius  is the next villain-turned-anti-hero who will debut on the big screen as part of Sony's Marvel universe. The upcoming movie will feature Jared Leto as the titular living vampire, a character who is a Spider-Man villain in the comics but is being shown as a hero in the project similar to Tom Hardy's Venom. While it is unknown where Morbius fits in the vast Spider-Verse, the film is expected to shed some light on Sony's plan for its Marvel characters. In the past two years, Morbius had its fair share of delays, mostly due to the pandemic. Recently, the film was delayed amidst the theatrical run of  Spider-Man: No Way Home. ADVERTISEMENT Initially, Morbius was slated to premiere on January 28, but it was delayed to April 1 instead. As a result, reports came in that No Way Home spurred the aforementioned delay, mainly because of the film's stellar box office run.  Now, the film's director has shed some light on the subject. ...

Spider-Man is a character who has had a long history on the big screen—rivaling only Batman. It all started with Tobey Maguire in Sam Raimi's original films. After a lackluster third outing, Sony decided it was time for a reboot. This put Andrew Garfield under the mask; another financial disappointment led to the world's third, and current, Spider-Man in Tom Holland. Who would have thought that those three different Spider-Men would ever appear on the screen at the same time? Thanks to the magic that is the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the Multiverse, what was previously thought to be impossible became a reality. If Spider-Man: No Way Home 's success means anything, it's how the experience the project provides is one that audiences worldwide love. ADVERTISEMENT With all the time that has passed since the movie hit theaters, Sony finally started to include both Maguire and Garfield in its marketing. The most notable release was when the t...
