action as it would lack the context of the actor, their films, and their expressions.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Critic finds the whole astral projection scene a bit odd, as even the film itself never mentions how Peter can keep the box away from strange despite not being a sorcerer. He does admit the theory of his spidey-sense would explain it, but not satisfactorily.
-->'''Strange:''' How...are you doing that!?

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Invoked, making it more like What SHOULD Have Been. Critic sees the Goblin's mostly maskless appearance as this for his [[Film/SpiderMan1 original appearance]], as it allowed Creator/WillemDafoe to become a truly expressive and intimidating (and more source-material-accurate) Green Goblin.

'''Release:''' May 11, 2022

'''Film:''' ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome''

'''Tagline:''' It's one of the biggest movies in recent years! Let's see what Nostalgia Critic has to say about Spider Man and Doctor Strange's first decent into the multiverse. Let's take a look at Spider-Man: No Way Home.

!!We remembered these tropes so you don't have to:
* DeathIsCheap: Critic calls upon the death reversals so common in comics in order to ship Osborn with May.
* DontTouchItYouIdiot: Critic's Parallel Universe Gun is marked with a sign that goes ignored by Tamara and Malcom:
-->'''[[BlatantLies NOT]]''' [[BlatantLies A PARALLEL UNIVERSE GUN]] '''[[ShmuckBait DO NOT USE]]''' [[ShmuckBait FOR PARALLEL UNIVERSES]]
* FollowTheLeader: Critic points out that not only is the film's premise very similar to that of ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'', which released four years earlier, but it's also part of the wave of [[Film/BillAndTedFaceTheMusic nostalgic]] [[Film/GhostbustersAfterlife reboots]] [[Film/Scream2022 of]] [[Film/TheFlash2023 several]] [[Film/HalloweenKills older]] [[Film/TexasChainsawMassacre2022 franchises]] bringing back the original casts one last time.
* GrailInTheGarbage: Critic has a Parallel Universe Gun just left in the studio's wardrobe room.
* LookADistraction: Critic is somehow successful in using one to escape Spider-Critic.
-->'''Critic:''' LOOK A GUY POINTING!\\
'''Spider-Critic:''' I think it's clear we're not gonna look because it's an obviously fabricated distraction-\\
<''the camera cuts back to reveal that Critic has disappeared''>\\
'''Spider-Critic:''' AAAAAAND HE ESCAPED WHILE I WAS EXPLAINING THAT!
* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: The scene of Maguire!Spider-Man stopping Holland!Spider-Man from killing the Goblin, which the Critic declares could not have been recreated in animation with the power and emotion it carries in live action.
* SpecialEffectsFailure: Critic describes the film's CGI as hit-and-miss, but singles out the Lizard as the worst offender despite not looking much better in his [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan original appearance]].
-->'''Critic:''' He wasn't that great an effect to begin with, but now he looks like a ''Film/SuperMarioBros'' movie Goomba cheese sandwiched with the Advertising/{{GEICO}} gecko.
* WeirdnessCensor: Oddly defied by the joke with Peter and friends thinking that Doctor Octavius' name is an AtrociousAlias, considering that ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' had a similar joke involving Peter thinking the same of Doctor Strange's name, as well as ''Film/SpiderMan2'' quipping about Octavius' name after he gains the mechanical tentacles.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Critic sees the Goblin's mostly maskless appearance as this for his [[Film/SpiderMan1 original appearance]], as it allowed Creator/WillemDafoe to become a truly expressive and intimidating (and source-material-accurate) Green Goblin.
* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: In addition to a quip about Creator/PaulGiamatti's [[FakeRussian Russian accent]] in ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan2'', Critic also pokes fun at the [[FakeAmerican American accent]] that Creator/BenedictCumberbatch puts on for his role as Strange.
