10 Trilogies That Actually Get Better With Each Movie
6. The MCU Spider-Man Trilogy
As popular as the character is, Spider-Man has historically struggled with finishing trilogies. Spider-Man 3 was easily the weakest of Sam Raimi's efforts, The Amazing Spider-Man 3 never happened, and even Beyond the Spider-Verse has been riddled with issues and is dangerously close to development hell right now.
However, this can't be said of the character's time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017 gave a refreshing look at Tom Holland's Peter Parker as an actual teenager, the balance between his personal and super life, and trying to live up to Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and the Avengers. Two years later, Far From Home had the unenviable task of following on from Avengers: Endgame and almost bringing audiences back down to earth. Peter had grown and was now having to operate without the guidance of Tony while still trying to live up to his role model and father figure. The Parker character only grew, but no matter how good his second MCU outing was, No Way Home was going to be better.
The fact that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield returned for something of a live-action Spider-Verse film was a groundbreaking, history-making moment, and throw in Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin almost leading a Sinister Five against a more mature and angry Spider-Man, and you have the best version of the Web-Head that Marvel Studios has put out yet.
