just a bunch of au thoughts where no one got sent back to their universes and like. okay its a spidermans version of the classic "the avengers all live in the avenger tower together" trope. its a good trope
- Peters all live in one apartment
- It is called The Web
- Because spiders.
("Gotta get back to the Web," Says Peter from the MCU.
"What's the Web?" MJ, from the MCU, replies.
"It's a little complex to explain -"
"Is it your apartment. Do you seriously call your apartment the Web.")
- It is, of course, a pretty shitty NYC apartment.
- It's a rotation of who has to sleep from a spiderweb hammock on the ceiling, who gets the couch, and who gets the bed.
- The landlord, of course, only thinks there's one guy living here. Old man that he is, cannot tell any of them apart.
- Not to mention they're all, legally, the same person.
- Personally I'd love to throw the villains in too but the most I got is Doc Ock and Norman living nearby as a very petty neighbor couple. Shenanigans ensue.
- Eddie Brock and Venom of COURSE are nearby and are constantly searching to find Spiderman and Peter Parker. But they're pretty terrible at finding anything.
I'd love to hear everyone else's thoughts <3 just a silly little ideas list I thought of for anyone else who's been liking the goofy "everyone lives in one house together" au. It's one of my favorites for a reason!!

This post contains MAJOR spoilers for Spider-Man: No Way Home. Read at your own peril!
“With great power comes great responsibility.”
I watched Spider-Man: No Way Home yesterday!
This was probably the most anticipated marvel film of the year AND IT DELIVERED!
SNWH is the film that we wanted and most definitely the film that we deserved - especially for those of us who grew up with the Maguire and Garfield era of Spider-Man (this film had major nostalgia!).
⭐️ Film rating: 9/10 ⭐️
What I loved:
(So, so, so much! Here goes)
Warning: this list is loooonng!
🕷 Tom Holland. I remember when it was first announced he was going to be playing Spider-Man- I was hesitant; to me, he was unknown. However, Infinity War and Endgame showed me that this guy could act! Especially with emotional scenes and SNWH just took that even further.
🕷 When Peter took MJ away from the melee after his identity was revealed, they’re at the top of the bridge, with Peter face-timing Ned and they’re both going “Dude!”, whilst MJ is trying to maintain her balance
🕷 “Not the subway! Let’s not do that.”
🕷 Daredevil’s appearance, catching that brick and “I’m a very good lawyer.”
🕷 Flash Thompson’s response when he learns of Peter being Spider-Man: “NO!” and then later, “I’m Spider-Man’s best friend! Read it in my book!”
🕷 Wong being Sorcerer Supreme.
🕷 When casting the spell, Dr Strange being all like “What is a Ned?” “No, I’m not happy, I’m annoyed.”
🕷 Peter putting the fate of the universe at risk, before making the call to plead his case - this was Strange: 🤨.
🕷 Strange’s “Don’t call me sir.” Peter’s hesitant “Stephen?” and Strange’s “Feels weird but I’ll allow it”.
🕷 Dr Strange saying that given all they’ve been through, he forgets that Peter is just a kid (it’s easy for the audience to forget this as well).
🕷 Doc Ock’s entrance on the bridge! “Hello Peter.”
🕷 Peter gaining control of Doc Ock’s arms and playing with them in wonder - his thoughts: this is so cool!
🕷 Peter putting Doc Ock in timeout, saying he won’t let him out until he stops trying to fight him.
🕷 Green Goblin’s entrance and Doc Ock’s “Osborn?”
🕷 MJ’s “I know some magic words, please for one.” and Strange’s “Scooby-doo this shit, please.”
🕷 Doc Ock’s increasing confusion of being in another universe: “You’re not Peter.” “What is that?” “Magic?” “Who are they?” You could tell he was getting more and more exasperated 😂.
🕷 When the Spidey villains are trying to remember events past their death.
🕷 Ned and MJ supporting Peter in his decision to not send the spidey villains to their fate, giving them a second chance.
🕷 The whole Strange and Peter fight sequence! Peter defeating Strange with math! “This is geometry!”
🕷 Osborn being impressed with Peter’s skills and offering him a job, if he is willing to commute between universes.
🕷 May offering Doc Ock salt water because, you know 🐙
🕷 Doc Ock returning to himself, with the new installed chip, seeing the good person that he really is.
🕷 Peter’s tingle and the realisation that the Green Goblin is actually in control, not Osborn - Willem Dafoe’s acting and transformation in this scene!
🕷 The fight scene between Green Goblin and Peter - especially when Green Goblin is laughing maniacally as Peter punches him and also when Green Goblin is pulling Peter’s head back, Peter is bloody and bruised and telling May to run.
🕷 May picking up a metal pipe, ready to fight, as Green Goblin has Peter.
🕷 MAY’S DEATH SCENE!!!! 😭😭😭 May telling Peter that she just needs to take a breath and that he made the right choice. “With great power comes great responsibility.”
🕷 Ned using magic and creating portals! Seeing Garfield and Maguire!!! 🕷 🕷 (this caused a lot of surprise gasps in the theatre)
🕷 Garfield having to prove he’s Spider-Man, whilst MJ is armed with bread rolls.
🕷 Maguire coming through the portal in his civilian clothing and Ned being like “Oh, thank god, he’s just a regular guy.” (this caused many laughs in the theatre)
🕷 Garfield and Maguire having the talk with Holland, saying they understand loss (having lost uncle Ben - and Gwen for Garfield) and how going down the dark path doesn’t help.
🕷 When the three Spider-Men are working in the lab and Ned calls for “Peter?” They all turn responding “Yeah?” Ned trying to clarify “Peter Parker?” Garfield responding “That’s all of us.”
🕷 Ned promising, as his best friend, not to turn into a villain and killing Peter. Peter saying “Ok” 😶, whilst Garfield taps Ned on the shoulder and Maguire nods.
🕷 The Daily Bugle progressing from a green screen in a home to a full-on news studio and Jameson’s reaction when the Lizard came out of the van, “Did you see that?” 😶
🕷 The major and climatic fight sequence at the end between the three Spider-Men and the spidey villains (particulars are below).
🕷 Garfield clicking Maguire’s back 😂
🕷 Holland and Garfield asking Maguire about his ability to generate webs without shooters. “It’s like breathing”.
🕷 The three Spider-Men comparing their hero experiences. Garfield saying “I want to fight an alien!”
🕷 Garfield saying, of the 3, he’s a lame Spider-Man and Maguire telling him no, you’re amazing.
🕷 Garfield telling the other Spider-Men that he hasn’t known them long but he loves them. The Spider-Men replying “Ok.”
🕷 The slow-mo scene of the three Spider-Men mid-jump, meeting the oncoming spidey villains, atop the Statue of Liberty.
🕷 “Wait, I thought I was Spider-Man 1.” “No, you’re Spider-Man 2. I’m Spider-Man 1. You’re Spider-Man 3.”
🕷 Garfield and Maguire admitting they don’t know how to work in a team, they usually work alone. Peter saying “I was in the Avengers.” Maguire: “Yeah, yeah…what’s that?” Garfield: “Is that a band? Are you in a band?”
🕷 Garfield saving MJ as she falls, especially after he mentioned losing Gwen, and MJ asking if he’s ok.
🕷 Electro thinking that Garfield was a black Spider-Man and saying “There must be a black Spider-Man out there somewhere.”
🕷 Strange returning and saying he was stuck over the Grand Canyon for 20 hours!!! (This reminds me of Loki falling for 5 hours 😂)
🕷 Peter’s final fight scene with the Green Goblin, with Peter’s intent to kill. Maguire and Garfield giving the head nod to each other, knowing what they need to do. Maguire stopping Peter from killing Goblin, saying no words, just willing him to understand.
🕷 Maguire getting stabbed!!! I was 100% worried he was going to die. Garfield supporting his weight.
🕷 Peter’s self-sacrifice of letting everyone forget him.
🕷 Peter not knowing how to thank Maguire and Garfield, with Maguire responding “You know. It’s what we do.”
🕷 Garfield’s peace out sign as he returned to his universe.
🕷 MJ and Ned throughout the whole film - they were awesome!
🕷 Peter’s continuous selflessness - how he was trying to get admissions for MJ and Ned only and how he doesn’t tell Ned and MJ who he is, choosing to not let their life be affected by knowing Spider-Man.
🕷 Peter and Happy meeting at May’s grave - Happy’s affirmation that those that are left behind will continue in the name of those that have gone.
🕷 Peter getting his own apartment and sewing his new suit.
🕷 The continued parallels between Peter and Tony Stark.
🕷 The post-credit scene with Eddie/ Venom - “Aliens don’t like rocks. ALIENS LIKE BRAINS!”
🕷 The second post-credit scene with the sneak peek of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (this film is going to be spectacular!)
Thoughts and Predictions:
🕷 It would have been great to see Venom play a more central role than just being present in the post-credit scenes but I can understand why they did that.
🕷 A new Venom-child may be the next Spider-Man villain, especially with that post-credit scene.
🕷 Ned must get training as a wizard, given his potential for magic and maybe he’ll feature a bit in the next Doctor Strange?
🕷 Ned may eventually become a villain (I really hope he doesn’t!)
🕷 To pay for his apartment, I expect Peter will sell pictures of himself as Spider-Man to the Daily Bugle. This would no doubt lead to him becoming the Spider-Man photographer.
🕷 The classic MJ and Spider-Man falling in love storyline may happen - maybe even the upside down kiss scene?
TL;DR: Spider-Man: No Way Home was awesome! If you’re into these movies, watch, watch, watch it!!!!
