George Stacy

I don't really care for Peter Parker in this one.

I mean, his main conflict with Gwen is Captain Stacy dies at the end of the first Amazing Spider-Man and dies telling Peter, please don't date my daughter.

Yeah.

And then throughout this movie, Peter gets visions of Captain Stacy and is trying to decide whether or not to actually go back and pursue her.

Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, I think, do have very good chemistry.

Yeah, of course they do.

It's...

So silly.

Peter.

Go, Stacy.

I don't know why we got so scared of big mask eyes, because it looks so much better.

Please welcome Gwen Stacy.

There's like so much more saturation too.

It looks

Like, oh, we're going to start this one off different than the last one.

Everything's going to be great.

from the Insomniac game.

She's the Captain Stacy of this film.

So she's going to die next movie, probably.

Do you think Tombstone's going to do it?

So I appreciated that.

Emma Stone's Gwen Stacy blows Bryce Dallas Howard's Gwen Stacy out of the water, and I like what you said when I mentioned that during the film, Jack.

Why don't you go ahead and say that?

Because Gwen is an actual character in this film as opposed to being a studio mandate.

And Emma Stone is just a fantastic actress in her own right.

Not to take anything away from Bryce Dallas Howard because she has proven that she has chops as well.

But this Gwen Stacy is confident.

She is smart.

That's right.

Where, where's amazing friends, George Stacy.

I I'm asking, I'm asking the question.

I mean, like, look, if you, if you squint your eyes, you could mistake Joe Kelly and me any day of the week, but my ego is not big enough that I'm going to say that that's me on, on the page there.

yeah yeah he plays Captain Gwen not Captain

Gwen Captain Gwen Stacy we've got an expert here folks we've got a super fan

Well, Gwen is actually the

daughter.

It's Captain Stacy.

But they go on about a joke he makes.

Okay.

Obviously, the big thing we always think about with Spider-Man is his choice to not stop a criminal, and that ends up costing him his Uncle Ben.

But then with George, Stacey, and then much more famously with Gwen, he's doing the right thing.

He is trying to stop the villain.

he cares about and dies so that is almost an interesting kind of bookend of tragedy that he carries so heavily so I think that that is more the message here at least that's what I'm picking up and I thought this was an excellent story and I thought Gleeson did a phenomenal job

And also at the warehouse at the end, where he confronts the burglar, in retrospect, everyone's there.

They have added everyone to that scene over the years.

George Stacy's supposed to be there.

Nate May's supposed to be there.

But anyway, so then Spider-Man [laughs] finally does something he should have done several months ago.

He gives the tablet to George Stacy.

How hard was that? [laughs] You've got a friend on the police force.

[laughs]

Like, he's been acting the whole time like, "I can't hand the tablet over to the police because they think I'm a bad guy." Well, George Stacy doesn't, and he finally hands it over, which to me makes this whole issue tremendously worth it, tremendously worthwhile to finally get the tablet out of there.

And then, but just as he's thinks his problems are solved, here comes Quicksilver, who is running all around beating him up.

I feel like Quicksilver is running up and down the fronts of buildings more than-

... more Quicksilver, uh, material in my life." You know, I, I get enough of it, uh, through his regular appearances in other stuff.

And this is not a, a harsh judgment, I'm just making a point.

Peter Parker made a promise to Captain Stacy that he would stay away.

Mm-hmm.

And I can understand his instincts.
