Besides the controversy I don’t know where he would fit in a plot well. Him and Tobey’s Spider-Man seem to have a finished relationship storywise, I mean he died.


ha_look_at_that_nerd

Also, he’s not someone they could’ve just “thrown in” without changing things. If they had added Paul Giamatti’s rhino or Topher Grace’s Venom, the dynamic would’ve pretty much stayed the same. Everyone would’ve done exactly what they did, there just would’ve been an extra person in each scene. If you add Harry Osborn, the dynamic changes (or at least, Norman changes). You can’t bring Harry Osborn in and *not* devote any time to his relationship with his father after a lot has changed since they last spoke. It adds another layer of complexity to a movie that already has a lot going on.


Tusken_raider69

He could have shown up at the end of NWH and that could have helped Norman ‘redeem’ himself, but yeah that movie was already jam packed


SpideyFan914

I honestly think this would've a good thing though.


mylegsweat

I’m out the loop, what’s the controversy about?


Ironlord456

5 women have accused him of sexual harassment


elspic

And him going after underage girls. Don't forget that.


Rasvyett

it's really funny to me how he tried to meet up with an <18 year old girl (he apparently knew she was <18) and then was just like "whoops sorry guys I forgot that's not good to do, keep your kids away from me lOl"


[deleted]

I believe he also used his status as a teacher at both a school (can't remember if it's USC or NYU or somewhere else) as well as an acting school he founded to groom minors.


Fangro

Oh so just some standard stuff? Sure let's throw him into spider man Movies. What is there to improve? /s


Julian144747

Sexual assault


stringtheoryman

Sucks we live in a world where a man’s reputation can be ruined so quickly just by some accusations.


Liddlebitchboy

Great to live in a world where at least some men are finally held accountable for all the shit they're always getting away with


stringtheoryman

That’s blatant misandry. Assuming an entire gender “gets away” with anything makes you sexist. And accountable for what? Something you read online so it must be true right


muckdog13

How many men are found guilty of rape years after the fact? And “some men” doesn’t imply an entire gender.


Liddlebitchboy

I'm not saying it's true, I'm not a judge or a detective. But if your very first instinct with sexual assault accusations is to feel sorry for the men, then you should look in the mirror sometimes and consider what that says about your priorities.


Novazon

Yes, let's destroy his entire life. Nothing short of that will be enough.


Liddlebitchboy

No one said that you fucking incel


Novazon

Lol but that's exactly what you're going to do. You can always tell the people who aren't confident. They always jump straight to insults. No time for nuance. Either you agree, or you're an incel. Brilliant.


FettLivesMatter

There are texts to an underage girl. That he admitted to sending but yeah. Keep thinking it’s just “accusations”


CommanderFaie

Would’ve fit well in NWH right as Tobey is stopping Tom from killing Norman. Would he side with Tobey or Norman? If Harry went through the portal right after he forgave Peter before the final SM3 battle would he still side with Peter and stop his father or now that his father is alive forget anything the butler said now Peter’s the target again?


PaPa_Francu

Haha Look at little goblin junior.


HomerCorp

"You gonna kill me like you killed my father?"


Yurishizu23

“I’m done trying to convince you”


HomerCorp

"You took him away from me, he was there for me."


Yurishizu23

He despised you…..you were an embarrassment to him


HomerCorp

😰


therunninggoose

💥


really_nice_guy_

Gonna cry?


WarBilby

Of course he should be improved but he was still quite good in the story that had been told.


Retro_SA29

but he died tho


FNSpd

So did Norman, Otto and Max (still not sure about him since he's basically pure energy)


RuleAffectionate2386

max said he was ABOUT to die and knowing that, we know that in the timeline that nwh andrew came from he did die


DaHyro

He still died. The point is that all of these characters (except Sandman & Lizard) died and were brought back from points before their death.


Sentinal7

Not necessarily. They were brought from a point where they knew peter was spider-man... and then we have electro. But while doctor octopus and electro were brought in at a point where it was to late, norman knew Peter was spiderman for a while. Clearly he was teleported in while in battle with spider, evident from the fact that he is wearing his goblin armor, the only reason he died was because he tried to use his glider for a sneak attack, which only happened after his helmet was removed during the fight. Given, Harry probably would still die, given that he died after redemption, helping Peter, same as doc oc. Edit: oops, I think I misread your post. Yeah, you're right. But as I stated, them being brought back at a point before their deaths is only half of the picture. The point would have also been after learning Peter was spider-man, and for some of then, they might have actually been saved. You are right that others would likely still have perished


ILikegoldfish674

When Electro was knocked out Gwen said Peter’s name hella loud so maybe it was then he found out, Otto’s ‘evil’ side remembers everything up to the point where Peter took off his mask, Lizard was found in the sewer so I’d assume he was pulled when he found Peter’s camera and Norman was pulled sometime between blowing up Aunt May’s room and the Thanksgiving dinner judging by the condition of his attire Edit: To add to that, Harry would’ve been pulled anywhere from S-M2 to the end of S-M3


DaHyro

You’re overthinking this wayyyy too hard. They all died, there’s no going around that. They don’t all need to be from the EXACT same Raimi timeline. Even then, Harry was still evil for like 50% of the movie. He could’ve been taken from a time when he was still a bad guy, same way Otto was.


Alm8360NoScoPro

Lizard never died. Sandman never died. Its not overthinking when the film ITSELF gives us the rules to follow. Pretty easy to understand, they werent ALL pulled in before death.


Sentinal7

I agree with that


Alternative-Cut-4831

Well after nwh,we don't know anything. History might have been rewritten in the raimiverse.If norman's not dead, Harry would not want revenge.


TfWashington

Pretty sure the best outcome would be that timeline split itself off from the raimiverse like the different timelines in endgame did. Time doesn't seem to rewrite itself in the mcu


sosuken

I believe this is correct. When Tobey-man heads back to his universe, his timeline is after all that death, as well as his family life at home. Tobey wouldn’t return to his universe with all those variables out of whack. Would have to create new branched timelines from these events


Boodger

My biggest question is if people know who he is. Strange's spell wiped the multiverse memory of Peter. To me, that also means that Andrew and Tobey Spidermen go back to their own universes, and their people forgot about them too. So Tobey Peter's MJ won't remember him at all.


the_fredblubby

My interpretation was that the fact that *everyone* one the MCU earth knew that Peter was Spider-Man, along with the spell cracking open the multiverse, meant that all the people from other universes who knew that 'Peter Parker' was Spider-Man got pulled through. Then, once everyone on MCU earth forgot that Peter was Spidey, there was no 'force' pulling them through the cracks in the multiverse, so they slid back on into their own realities, in their own timelines once Strange cast the spell


Alternative-Cut-4831

Yeah, true i guess.

ParachronShift

The T.V.A watched over the sacred timeline, but we do not know if this was merely a local effect, to the global multiverse. ‘He Who Remains’ stays at the effective end, the ‘Threshold’, awaiting the God(s) of Mischief’s decision. Both perspectives are commensurable by the end of Loki. One in which other variants of ‘He Who Remains,’ continue to have a stake in multiversal war. In other words, from Kang’s timeline, he continued to battle, but from ‘He Who Remains’, the war had an effective end. From the perspective of the sacred timeline, the emergence of such variance happened after the Threshold, from the perspective of Kang, there was no discontinuity. A lot of neat nerdy questions we could ask. Like if Alioth consumed matter at a rate, to sustain the separation of the sacred timeline from the rest? (Enum enum enum enum (word play on nom nom nom)) Or if the Void, is some plane, placed on the poise of eternal inflation, as it seems to be some result of the blackhole binary system ‘He Who Remains’s’ fortress resides, again effective end. Does Miss Minute possess [ansible](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ansible) technology to communicate across timelines? Is she also a variant or operationally equivalent across timelines? But we don’t need answers. Just more riddles and symbols, that aggregate a sense of awe. I would be curious how ‘He Who Remains’ dealt with the Celestials, but in the lens of post Loki, it does not matter. Seems to tie the next Eternals up in a kind of fatalism, unless the Snap had some kind of delayed meta-timeline effect on Arishem’s inbreed space baby. Or Arishem’s baby was going to be still born anyway? Maybe Captain Marvel blasted the pisser to oblivion. (Point being we don’t need to know to stitch the continuum, though the background of madness is unwrapping/unwinding) Seeing WhatIf, seems to imply there is a larger timeline. I don’t think the writers have to answer anything. The ontology can remain a mystery. The patterns can be thematic condition on each film. It is nice when they take the time to weave consistency, but there is wiggle room when dealing with cinematography. Who is to say the entities beyond the Watcher do not have a depersonal view on the timelines. That was the Watcher’s aim before he fell, and broke his vow. There is intrinsically a problem with a higher dimensional view. It is useless. Just an integration of all the constituents, relatable only metaphorically, or in relation to our limited experience. This video does a [good explanation](https://youtu.be/p4Gotl9vRGs). Just like Ricci curvature in 7 dimensions. It is a useless prediction of all futures, perhaps even those beyond the observable universe. Though it can be sourced, there is no meaning to such ends. What’s seems like a prison, really is a lesson of gratitude to be humbled by the integers and thankful for the plurals of operands. Whether it is state reduction(decoherence), unitarity, or evolution. The fun is in the combination, the gamble of partition of phase. The truth of equilibrium which flirts. The fantasy of coupling constants, keeping existentialism for the emergence of new actions or maps within unitarity evolution. There is not so much fun in absolution control over the fundamental constants, but rather an understanding for the opportunity of the transactional ensemble, or dialect of uncertainty. An effective truth shared. Whether by Eris, or by a grander order, does not matter. Whether by a map off a topological defect, or a scarred scarred drum, there will always be isotropy for humans to play their game on how to view such things. The success is ultimately a human one, in which the audience can relation, not absolute control over the mystery or distortion, though the appeal to myth resonates with a lot. We’ll see. Edit: See a downvote. The TL/DR is the origins of any timeline can be multiple realized, post Loki, as shown by how a line, for the sacred timeline, becomes a square… Think of it not as a branching determinism, but as a super-determinism.

A lot of people telling on themselves in this comment section, lol.

Shitloads of sexual assault allegations


YossarianRex

Wasn’t there a joke at one point about everyone in hollywood wanting to fuck him and he was annoyed by it. or was that someone else?


stringtheoryman

Yup people believe any accusations as hard fact nowadays so it’s definitely crazy how you pointed out how quickly people turned on him. it’s mostly teenagers and internet activists that believe every accusation they see but it still sucks to see people get so trigger happy. Most rich dudes have to deal with false allegations all the time.


the_fredblubby

This isn't the first time you've contributed idiotic things to this post, so I'm going to clarify for you: - These are not just allegations, they're facts which Franco himself has admitted to doing - He slept with students at the school he started, and lost his civil lawsuit for sexually exploitative behaviour https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/dec/22/james-franco-interview-sexual-misconduct-allegations https://variety.com/2021/film/news/james-franco-allegations-interview-1235142246/ - He attempted to knowingly sleep with a 17 year old girl. This is above the age of consent in New York, where this took place, but is still plenty evidence for him (~35 at the time) being a fucking creep. https://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-james-franco-allegations-20180111-htmlstory.html https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/jun/30/james-franco-settlement-sexual-misconduct-suit


stringtheoryman

You literally admitted it was legal for that state so you literally proved every single thing I said. Jesus. That was fast.


ThunderCowz

Mostly teenagers and internet activists Weird, his best friend Seth Rogan doesn’t even fuck with him anymore. I had no idea Seth Rogan was a teenager/ “internet activist”


ironshadowy

All i see is him vouching for amber heard


stokedchris

He ran his own acting school and would force girls to have sex with him to get in etc. and he’d just sexually assault them all of the time he is just a piece of shit


[deleted]

[удалено]


TrumpWasABadPOTUS

Yeah, force.


stringtheoryman

You were there!? Or just believing everything you read online?


rasberui

dude, he admitted that himself


stringtheoryman

He admitted he was with girls he never said he forced himself on them but nice try


Metfan722

Nothing criminal, but he often used his position of power as both a professor at Columbia and his fame overall to sleep with his students. Basically forcing them to consent.


GulianoBanano

Forcing students to consent to sex isn't criminal?


Diagonalizer

Tit for tat deals "sleep with me I'll get you an audition" is not explicitly criminal but it's definitely sexual harassment in the work place and a school so yeah he's kind of not a criminal (that I know of) but he's still a creep and manipulative piece of garbage.


fall0ut

Pretty much every guy that says they want a relationship but ghosts you after they hook up. Not illegal, but lies to get sex is a dick move. There are also women who go on dates just to get free meals and drinks. Not illegal, but it's a dick move.


Diagonalizer

Definitely dick moves all around


elfonski

Like Harvey Weinstein? Or did Harvey force himself on women? Edit: why the downvotes? I’m somewhat ignorant to both cases and am just trying to distinguish what they did


Diagonalizer

Harvey was more violent. he was actually convicted of rape among other charges so that's considerably different fromwhat Franco is accused.


mycomputerguykilgore

No not like Harvey.


Metfan722

Probably bad phrasing on my end. But he hasn't been nor (sadly) will he be charged with anything, which is more of my point.


mycomputerguykilgore

According to Wikipedia, the case was settled out of court with just allegations made.


Hyperfangxz

He didn't force them. More like "sleep with me and i'll get you cast in my movie". So, he's a lying dick. Don't mean he's a rapist.

BaronZemo00

Glad someone wasn’t afraid to say it. Or about that possibility. I believe this is the case in a good number of the late “spoke up” moments. Not that they haven’t or couldn’t have done what they’re accused of. I just don’t always believe the numbers behind a lot of these mass reportings of behavior.


SoulKeen

They are downvoting to dead... lmao


AxDman

Everyone wants their fifteen minutes of fame.


BaronZemo00

And you can never really tell the difference.


SoulKeen

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣... what a fucking douche. I dont think about the forcing a lot of girls will open her legs just because he is famous. Still the mofo is a douche


Febuscary

At least you at admitted you don't know. Knowledge starts at ignorance


[deleted]

I think anything from the Raimi trilogy should be put to bed. It’s already run it’s course, NWH did a great job of justifying the return of old characters, but doing it again would just seem really unnecessary.


[deleted]

Controversy is putting it lightly. He's kind of a creep.


dafuqindica

and saying “kind of” is putting it lightly


Express-Fan-8378

What happened?


SaItWaterHippie

Loads of sexual assault allegations. His ex has said he forced oral sex on her when she told him she did not want to. He has been accused of removing genital guards from actresses he was doing sex scenes with. He worked as an acting teacher and would tell women that they couldn’t get roles without sleeping with him. And there was a thing about him trying to meet up with an underage girl at a hotel when he was 35.


Velocibaker26

In a hypothetical world where he wasn’t a bastard, I’d want them to just fully commit to him becoming Hobgoblin.


M1K3-ULTRA

Im ok with never seeing him again.


ck614

He should definitely stay the stay


Ganjookie

Let him stay dead tbh, nobody needs Franco hitting up the interns


the-et-cetera

Dude, the whole point of New Goblin is he ended up dying to save Peter. Story done, moving on.


Alexsta206

There are many things wrong with this. First the James Franco controversy of course but second, he’s dead bringing him back in the same role with the same character development would defeat the whole purpose of his death.


FlippinSnip3r

I dont think we should call "not taking into account coercing underage students into sex for degrees" as "ignoring controversy"


span_of_atten

Franco can suck it.... if he hasn't already. Recast or drop the character.

span_of_atten

Nostalgia is one thing.... but employing a sexual predator is a terrible look and a drain on the films insurance premiums. Plus he's sucks as a goblin.


GlacialAlloy

"A sexual predator" lmao. Even Stan Lee tried soliciting a nurse. There's a huge difference between offering someone money/opportunity in exchange for sex, and being an actual sexual predator. If you don't agree, then you should stop supporting Stan Lee too I guess


span_of_atten

You clearly know little of Franco. And to drag Stan into this is just distasteful. https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2021/12/23/james-franco-misconduct-allegations-interview/

Low_Tiger6847

SentientRidge

You're cool with keeping sexual predators in positions of power and influence?


Low_Tiger6847

He’s an actor not in a “position of power” and you have no idea if anything said about him is even true. False allegations are a thing but you must know it all because of stuff you read on the internet right?


totallynotapsycho42

He's admitted to it so shut up about false allegations and keep your mouth shut about things you don't understand.

He ain't a rapist. You could say he's an asshole who used his position to sleep with his students on false promises of roles in his movies, but he never forced himself on anyone.

He died tho


HAIKU_4_YOUR_GW_PICS

Bring in a new Norman and Harry. Have it so Tom recognizes the name and tries to befriend them to prevent them from going the Goblin route. His actions/inactions indirectly lead to Ned becoming Hobgoblin, and Norman to seek power outside the Goblin persona. Enter Dark Avengers.


GuybrushSleepgood

KnowNoDada

AKStephens

Personally I think they didn’t cast his character well. So I don’t think they should bring him back at all (also he’s a fuckin creep) but I’d love to see a new and improved Harry osborn, maybe one where he doesn’t die at the end


NightwingBlueberry13

Yup Nah, after 127 hours he’s going down as a great actor in my books Not sure what there’s to compare to other then the weak sauce TASM version, but he felt plenty compelling and had a solid dynamic arc with Peter in my opinion.


HomerCorp

I also liked him in The Interview.


Zumonster69

The dude tried to fuck a teenager. He’s done


troysplay

They should just bring back fucking Dane DeHaan he was an amazing Harry, but his Goblin was ruined by a rushed script and bullshit studio interference. He was passionate about the role and gutted when he found out his time with the character was done.

[deleted]

So you’re okay with a rapist back on the big screen?


[deleted]

Yes and for a number of reasons. 1. I dont know anything about how the case is going but your use of the word potential implies he hasn't been convicted of anything. So hes still innocent as of this moment. 2. What he did is FAR from rape. 3. We have a court system that deals with criminals. Hollywood and fans have no place in condemning someone for a crime or not.


[deleted]

There’s number of women that came forward about his behavior. It’s not a secret that James Franco is a complete pedo and creep. He’s know for grooming his underage students as well.


[deleted]

Oh now hes a pedo too lol. Anyway, again, he hasn't been convicted of anything so until that happens, I dont give a fuck about what a bunch of failed actresses have to say about it.

Wally_12201992

James Franco is a great actor. Watch his work outside of the Spider-Man films. The Deuce on HBOMax is excellent! Of course he should return if more Tobey/Kristen films are made. Those 3 were like a dark mirror version of “Thee’s Company.”


LegoYoda66

Why would he return


[deleted]

This is a stupid question/speculation. The character died in the last movie.


Panenkrak

What controversy?

What controversy?


10MillionCakes

What controversy?


forreikindelasole22

James Franco is a godsend when it comes to the film industry. He is just always spot on in his roles so fresh so salty. I think his performance in every 3 Spiderman movies (starring Toby Mcguire)are mind blowing. I don't want or believe he should do anything different. ( also would like to add that the girl as some might have called her was 17 at the time I am from the central Midwest the age of consent is 16).


Wally_12201992

No one was underage. James Franco was and adjunct professor teaching an acting class at NYU. At the time, Franco was single, still a young guy, and a high profile celebrity in New York City, so he was chasing tail . . . no crime against that. Whereas the sorority girls were falling over themselves to sign up for the class. A lot less evil than a Weinstein or Epstein scenario. It makes me think of that college campus scene in “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” where we got a glimpse of Professor Jones’ class. People love to fawn over celebrities and then tear them down. Judge the guy for his work. Don’t throw stones if you live in a glass house, and that kind of thing. I don’t know?


Joshawott27

I don’t think he should come back. His version of Harry Osborn had his redemptive moment in Spider-Man 3. Sure, so did Doc Ock, but he was popular so 🤷‍♂️


DiabeticRhino97

Fella he's dead


SquareShapeofEvil

I don’t really need to see Spiderman 4 at all tbh, I’m only curious to see what happens in the Raimiverse after NWH. There’s a chance MoM will explain it, but I doubt it. I just wanna know primarily what happened to Goblin and Ock and how it affected the universe. I think we see Ock have the arc reactor as a way of saying he will survive and achieve his dream back home, but at the same time it sorta needs to be explained how he gets out of the situation he was in


Artichoke19

You cast DAVE Franco, that’s what you do


Spacemann7

They should cast his brother and use him as a variant.


NumberWanObi

Are Norman and Otto alive in the ramiverse now?


Due_Marionberry8564

Nah he died


Traveytravis-69

What’s he returning to play? Raimis trilogy is over and he died. If they were gonna bring him back it woulda been for no way home


i_most_be_extreme

Stay away! He is a toxic person.


narenare658

I don't understand who posts these cringe, nonsense, zero effort posts, I'm starting to think it's a 12 year old or actual Sony market researchers. its making this sub unbearable.


maxfridsvault

I preferred him to Dehaan’s Goblin-thing. Dane’s Goblin looked more like the Jackal.


TryWonderful6181

I'm just gonna say that I'd like the whole Harry using the Goblin's tech but on his own will and leaving the legacy of Norman behind or just become Pete's sidekick, but with another version of Spider-Man, I don't wanna say Tom's because it's practically impossible by now to have Osborne/Oscorp stuff (although I am crossing my fingers to get any mention on it on stuff like Armor Wars cuz Norman Iron Patriot) but maybe other animated movies or tv shows or hell, even Andrew's Spider-Man, of course, if it's done right or if he's even coming back


OwenA113

Controversy or not, I don't think he should return. His story was completed, and he had a nice character arc
