** Otto Octavius knows Norman Osborn was the Green Goblin -- in their home universe this wasn't commonly known (Norman's own son didn't know about it for a long time), and even if Otto just guessed it, you'd assume it'd have come up when he was interacting with both Peter and Harry in ''Spider-Man 2''.

''Spider-Man: No Way Home'' is a 2021 superhero ScienceFantasy film directed by Creator/JonWatts, which serves as an IntercontinuityCrossover between the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse, the ''Film/SpiderManTrilogy'', and ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries''. It is also the direct sequel to ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'', the 27th theatrical film and 32nd overall installment of the MCU, the 9th installment of its Phase 4 slate, the third co-production between Creator/{{Disney}}'s Creator/MarvelStudios and Creator/{{Sony}}'s Creator/ColumbiaPictures division, the ninth installment of the ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' film franchise overall, and the conclusion to the Film/SpiderManHomecomingTrilogy.

* GrandFinale: Of the ''Home'' [[Film/MCUSpiderManTrilogy Spider-Man trilogy]], as while a second trilogy is in development and Spider-Man is confirmed to play a role in other non-''Spider-Man'' films, this concludes Peter's life as a high-school student and his character development into a superhero of his own right outside of Tony's shadow.

The film was released exclusively in theaters on December 17, 2021. While this film wraps up [[Film/MCUSpiderManTrilogy the Spider-Man trilogy]] that began with ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'', it will not be the last ''Spider-Man'' project set in the MCU, [[https://www.fandango.com/movie-news/spider-man-no-way-home-producer-amy-pascal-reveals-more-about-the-historic-film-and-confirms-tom-hollands-future-as-spider-man-754461 as a second trilogy is planned with Holland returning as the webslinger]]. Sony has also indicated that Spider-Man will be able to appear in their own franchise with ''Spider-Man''-related characters, ''Film/SonysSpiderManUniverse'', as he briefly did during the post-credits scene of ''Film/VenomLetThereBeCarnage''.

** Doc Ock's asserstion that he "should have killed [Peter's] little girlfriend when I had the chance," serves as a reference the finale of ''Film/SpiderMan2'', where Otto captured Mary Jane Watson to lure Spider-Man in. MCU Peter, however, misinterprets this to mean ''Michelle Jones'' and [[TheGlovesComeOff begins to fight in earnest.]]

** Like a lot of memes, MCU Peter brags about how he's a part of The Avengers. The other Spider-Men have no idea what it means.

*** During the climax, Peter asks Dr. Strange to redo the original amnesia spell to make everyone, even his friends and family, forget that "Peter Parker is Spider-Man," but Strange said they've passed the PointOfNoReturn. Peter then asks him to create a fresh spell to negate the old botched one: [[spoiler:"Make everyone forget Peter Parker." When the spell is completed, there are implications that the events of the movie still exist in one way or another, but as far as Peter Parker is concerned, no one knows he's Spider-Man because ''he doesn't even exist'' in people's eyes.]]

* UncomfortableElevatorMoment: In a DeletedScene readded to the extended "More Fun Stuff" cut, Aunt May, Peter Parker, Norman Osborn, Max Dillon, Flint Marko and Otto Octavius are [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARXUHxI6BcA taking the elevator together to Happy's apartment,]] making for quite the awkward ride. Especially since Doc Ock, front and center, is still wrapped in his own tentacles, and even ''one tentacle tip'' seems to be following the unspoken protocol.

* DiggingYourselfDeeper: When Ned is interrogated by an agent of Damage Control for his involvement in Peter Parker's career as Spider-Man, the agent accuses Ned of staying quiet when he learns from MJ about Spider-Man's true identity, prompting Ned to immediately corrects him that ''he'' knew that Peter is Spider-Man [[Film/SpiderManHomecoming way before MJ did and that he even helped Peter out in his fight against Adrian Toomes/The Vulture]]. The agent then turns this around by saying that this would make Ned an ''actual accomplice'' in Peter's "crimes" instead of just a suspect as he initially assumed.

* BittersweetEnding: Possibly the most bittersweet across all the ''Spider-Man'' movies, [[ExaggeratedTrope which is saying something]]. [[spoiler:Peter Parker is able to redeem the supervillains with the help of his alternate selves, who return to their home dimensions with their respective Spider-Men, and his secret identity is once again restored. However, our hero loses '''everything''' in the process -- Aunt May is dead, meaning his emotional rock is gone and he has no means to financially support himself, the entire world forgets that he exists (including MJ and Ned), and he has to get a GED because he had to drop out of high school, now living alone in an empty apartment. Nonetheless, Peter reaffirms his motivation to do good for its own sake and soldiers on as he continues his journey as a superhero, starting all over again. As for the villains and their respective Spider-Men? Norman can go home to his son, but is forced to live with the guilt of the lives he took. Otto can finally have the clean energy machine he always wanted, but his wife is still dead and his crimes can never be undone. Flint can finally go home to his daughter, but he's still a wanted criminal. Connors is cured and won't have killed Captain Stacy, but he still will be arrested for his crimes. Max finally has a friend he can count on, but there's still a lot of damage he caused back home. And while Raimi-verse Peter and Webb-verse Peter can put the guilt they had of not being able to cure Norman and failing to save Gwen behind them, nothing in their lives has changed. And Eddie? He and Venom have to go back home and stay on the run as fugitives, unaware a small sliver of themselves has been left behind.]]

* NoJustNoReaction: Webb-verse Spidey's increasingly annoyed attempts to deflect MJ increasing demands to prove he's Peter Parker, even after demonstrating his powers.

** When Strange takes back the box from Green Goblin, we get a shot for [[spoiler:each Spider-Man.]] The reason? [[spoiler:Their Spider-Sense going off to reveal Goblin slid a Pumpkin Bomb into the box]].

** [[spoiler:Ned is suddenly able to cast teleportation portals much like Strange's and Wong's]], with only one line from Ned mentioning how his Lola said that their family has magic and him bringing up how he gets occasional tingles in his hands as foreshadowing that he was capable of such a thing. This does mean the heroes are able to use this ability to their advantage without involving the film's trained magicians, but the newfound ability is also subject to HowDoIShotWeb, making [[spoiler:Ned and MJ targets for the villains.]]

** During their fight, Goblin demonstrates one of the many reasons ''why'' he's such a deadly enemy: [[spoiler:He reacts to Peter's punches by simply grinning maniacally, ''laughing'' as Peter begins punching harder, and piledriving Peter through ''every floor'' of Happy's apartment building down to the ground level.]]

* RiddleForTheAges: We never do find out [[spoiler:how Peter is able to remotely puppeteer his physical body even after Doctor Strange separates his astral form from it]], though it's highly implied to be as a result of [[spoiler:the physical body's SpiderSense]].

* AlternateSelf: The Raimi-verse and Webb-verse versions of Spider-Man are counterparts to MCU Spidey. Doc Ock explicitly points this out when he has MCU Peter in his grasp and sees his face, saying, "You're not Peter Parker."

* AlternativeSelfNameChange: As both Spider-Men played by Creator/TobeyMaguire (''Film/SpiderManTrilogy'') and Creator/AndrewGarfield (''Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries'') return to team up with the MCU version played by Creator/TomHolland, they remedy the confusion of all being named Peter Parker by addressing themselves as Peters "1" (MCU), "2" (Raimi-verse), and "3" (Webb-verse).

* DecompositeCharacter: It is not in fact Uncle Ben who taught MCU Peter the mantra "With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility", even though it's heavily implied that Peter learned that lesson from his uncle based on his line in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar''. [[spoiler:It's in fact Aunt May, who appropriately dies soon thereafter.]]

*** During the climax, Peter asks Dr. Strange to redo the original amnesia spell to make everyone, even his friends and family, forget that "Peter Parker is Spider-Man," but Strange said they've passed the PointOfNoReturn. Peter then asks him to create a fresh spell to negate the old botched one: [[spoiler:"Make everyone forget Peter Parker." When the spell is completed, there are implications that the events of the movie still exist in one way or another, but as far as Peter Parker is concerned, he doesn't even exist.]]

* ShotReverseShot: This technique is used at least twice in conversations between characters who aren't in any other shots from that scene together. This appears to be one of the many effects brought upon this movie by [[UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic a certain pandemic]] that was in full swing during its production.

* ShotReverseShot: This technique is used at least twice in conversations between characters who aren't in any other shots from that scene together. This is likely due to the movie's actors having scheduling conflicts.

'''MJ:''' Nuh-hu.
