Garfield and Emma were leaps and bounds more believable as highschoolers than kirsten and tobey, but they also had to be considering one whole film was based in highschool, where as Spider-Man 1 just began in highschool and transitioned relatively fast to college.
Michael Massee, who played the Gentleman in the Amazing franchise, has passed away. Real shame, he was a really underrated actor. Woulda made a great Norman had they gone that way. RIP.
Variety
LOL
See, it's funny because he has an incredible career (and possible Oscar) ahead of him.

^well, he would have at least been age appropriate if he was first cast in the Raimi's movies and those films could've carried on a lot longer without him getting too old for the role
I still feel as though none of the first 2 incarnations of Spider-Man got his humor right. Tobey & Andrew both had some cringe-worthy lines. We haven't seen enough of Holland yet to compare, but I have a feeling being in the MCU will help in that area. They seem to excel in that department.
It's not necessarily as easy to translate Spidey's brand of comic book humor to film. I agree there have been a handful of cringe-y lines in the previous installments, but I also thought each one has done a decent to pretty good job with the humor as well. They may not have been perfect, but I just don't see how you could necessarily do it that much better
Even CW, it was pretty good but still seemed very forced a lot of the time imho. It's just really hard to do
The only genuinely funny quip in any Spider-man movie was Garfield's "you've found my weakness, it's small knives" line from ASM. The rest range from fine to intolerable, up until CW, which had a few good quips, including the Empire Strikes back line.
"That's a cute outfit, did your husband give it to you?" was the best quip, imo and funny enough...it was the first one.
