《A spider in the arrow-verse》I'ma say it

......I hate Tom Holland's Spider-Man.
Now before all you guys start attacking me let me just explain first off I'm going to tell you my favorite Spider-Man in order.
1)Andrew Garfield
2)Tobey Maguire
3)Tom Holland
The reason both Andrew and Tobey our first and second is because I grew up with Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man. So it felt like a classic to me and he was the first one I saw and that's what got me hooked on Spider-Man so much which lead me to go out and find out more about the others.
Andrew is my favorite because I like the way he tries to operate with his villains. Like he's not going to go in starting swing and he's actually going to try and talk to them. Not to mention unlike the other two Andrew actually cracks jokes while he fights like Spider-Man should. No I'm not saying Tom doesn't do this it just when it comes to him doing it it seems very annoying.
Tom is just iron man Jr. And he's practically the weakest I know a lot of people want to say that he's the strongest or try to come at my throat because I'm saying that. But honestly he pretty much is, here's why a lot of you Tom Holland fans want to try to use him picking the rubble up off of himself when he was fighting vulture, then you want to use the boat scene, and lastly the Bridge scene in the movie with Mysterio.
All three of those would be valid arguments if they all failed in comparison to the others. As you guys already know Spider-Man has the proportionate strength of a spider.
That is still very terrifying because a spider can lift 170x it's body weight. Now imagine a human being having that ability, which means however much they weigh they'll be able to lift 170x that amount even if it's a proportion of that strength it's still dangerous.
Tobey was able to lift 1/4 of a entire building that was going to crush MJ in Spider-Man 2. Tom only lifted the rubble and it clearly showed that he was straining himself or at least putting everything he had into lifting that.

In both of his movies Tom is still basically a teenager. While in the other two's first movie they were just getting their powers and still learning how to use them. By the time that their second movie comes out they pretty much got this thing down and our young adults meaning that they have gained some weight. Because when we grow older we get fatter, even if you work out you're still going to be gaining weight because your muscles are getting bigger.
Tom wasn't holding that by himself remember he had other webs holding it in place before it just sunk. And it was just enough time for iron Man to show up so he can actually stop it.
Even when the web started to break and he was holding it on his own it wasn't doing anything.
Tobey was pretty much trying to stop a train doing the technical same method. However there are some major key difference here he was actually doing that all by himself. Because the building sure as hell didn't hold up with all that weight that was going on. I mean true some did hold but not all of them because some of the city did get totaled.
This is the one that needs to chill out the most.
My guy, my dude, bro come here, just come here, come closer, come closer
..........
My guy I cannot give you points at all for that because you're acting like the others can't do that. True and their movies they didn't touch up on it like in Tom's but, I'm pretty sure they can still do that.
I can't even give you points for that because he didn't even know what it was at the time. He literally just called it his he even called it that himself before he did all that stuff. I am very much sure that both Tobey and Andrew can do all that they just didn't have the budget in their movies because of the time. Especially Tobey.
See all that? That wasn't just for dramatic effect that was literally his spider since going off telling him what exactly is going on and where everyone is. If you play this in real time and not in slow motion like it was on some scenes. This man has some insane reaction time.

Do I even really have to say anything for this one?
Andrew and Tobey made theirs by hand Tom got his handed to him. And even if he did "Make His Own" it was with Stark tech. The web shooters I'll give him a pass because he did make his own prototype along with his first suit. But that's it seriously he has so much crap in that suit he didn't even know what to do with it. And that's not even me over exaggerating that is me being literal, his first Solo movie is pretty much proof of this claim.
I don't have much to say about Tobey's personality. Because at that time they were trying to focus on making the cartoon Spider-Man a real thing. Like the whole with great power comes great responsibility thing so he needed to be responsible and act mature. He did make jokes or do some funny stuff but it was more or less like the third or fourth thing he focused on. The OGs know what I'm talking about
Andrew was perfect, he made jokes when he needed to he was still acting serious when it came down to it. Even when no one was around he was still making funny lines.
Tom is annoying, like seriously all he does is talk and not in the funny way it's very annoying. You're not to mention his version of Spider-Man just asked to immature and new. You can make the argument that and like in some of the other Spider-Man TV shows he's kind of the same but to me no.
And I know that the new movie is coming out but thanks to the trailer I have better ammo. Because Doctor Strange was in the middle of doing the spell that made everyone forget he was Spider-Man.
And he was dumb enough to ask questions like
Like dude this was literally what you were asking for why do you choose now to act like you didn't know!!! And to make matters worse he kept on bugging Doctor Strange about people who he needs to know he's Spider-Man!!! You're acting like you just can't tell them again he didn't say you couldn't!!!!
The entire multiverse got thrown out of whack all because he didn't shut up.
And then lastly you have the city. Now for me I feel like when you're talking about Spider-Man the city itself is also a character.
When Tobey was trying to keep that train card thing from falling into the ocean that had people in it and Green goblin was trying to mess with him. The people of the city had his back and started throwing stuff at goblin so he wouldn't mess with Spider-Man trying to save other people.
Andrew I'm pretty sure you saw it in that video that when he got shot in the leg and needed to get to Oscorp Tower. The father of the kid Andrew saved got his buddies to move the crane so he can easily swing and get there faster so he can save the city.
Tom's city didn't have his back at all. That is according to the trailer, all these people were judging him pointing fingers holding up signs. It's like they all just thought Spider-Man was a menace even though that he has saved the day.
And to me that is very messed up because like if I wear this superhero and I've been trying my hardest to save you guys and I've nearly died countless of times trying to save the people of the city as my superhero alter ego. And when you guys finally find out who I am under the mask you want to criticize me and treat me like I'm a bad guy.
Like seriously tell me I'm wrong with this one. Even though his new movie is coming out you're not excited to see him you're excited to see The return of old villains an old Spider-Men.

Ogre Tyrant
Tim wakes up to find he is naked and alone in a fantasy world. However, he is not as alone as he first thought. There are other people running around all over the place fighting monsters for a living. Unfortunately for Tim, he seems to be one of those monsters. Desperate for any degree of safety and normalcy he can find, Tim must tread a fine line between freedom and subservience to survive. All while trying to keep alive a trio of adventurers hellbent on becoming legends. However, unfortunately for Tim, he is not the only one from earth to awaken in this world and the other Awakened aren't nearly so benevolent. Warning: The protagonist begins the story quite cowed and meek but progresses into a more assertive and situationally dominant personality. This is partly due to growth, but also a result of the character overcoming initial shock and longstanding depression. If you think I could have handled a segment better, by all means, point it out and provide your reasoning and suggestion. Everyone's experience of depression is different, and Tim's is a close representation of my own, so it won't necessarily 'vibe' with everyone. Chapters are around 15k words and released approx 1/week over the weekend. Has been reduced to around 7.5k to 9k to better fit my schedule.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
