Marc Webb's Spider-Man also did not punch his villains. I think he only punched Lizard once, and that it's it. Raimi's Spider-Man, on the other hand, was beating the crap out of his villains all the time. -

I'm pretty sure he punched Harry at the end of Amazing Spider-Man 2.

As much as I liked SM2, Spidey punching Doc Ock so much didn't make any sense. Because Ock really shouldn't have been able to take all of those blows.
Its amazing how people hang around message boards of movies they dont like -

Some people therorize that he couldn't be knocked out because of the AI in his tentacles having taken over his brain.

With enough time for remembrance, I could list for you hundreds and hundreds of blows to the head in movies and TV shows which should knock people out yet don't.

or it could be dramatic license.
Which in and of itself is a writing flaw. There's no reason he shouldn't be able to be knocked out by all those punches. Much less not get hurt by them. It's like they just wanted to make Doc Ock invincible.

But yes, it does bothers me that Spidey doesn't punch anyone but I don't think thats gonna be permanent.
What Marvel is doing is touching on Peter Parker's high school year where he's still a rookie and not confident in pulling his punches. In Civil War he didn't punch anyone but his action sequence was awesome. -

Yeah, I remember when I first heard about this I almost thought how stupid it would be
But then I remembered the game Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions, and remembered how the 616 fought, instead of throwing punches, he would actually use his webs, grabbing objects or ripping up the ground and beating up enemies that way If they went that route, I would be impressed -

Yeah and people try to compare this to the lack of punching in the 90s Spider-man cartoon. That show's action sequences had problems, but the lack of punching was really a minor one. The show's stiff animation meant that Spider-man couldn't even move like Spider-man.
There's a difference between not punching due to censorship and having it as an artistic decision.

While I hear both sides of the debate, and a fight can still be well choreographed without having Spider-Man throw punches, what I struggle to comprehend is why they have made it a matter of philosophical principle.
Webbing a brick, (or a manhole cover) and slamming it into someone is NOT in any way less violent or less dangerous than a punch nor is swing kicking someone to Timbuktu. This is exactly what Spidey did to Falcon in Civil War when he swung into the terminal in pursuit of Falc and Winter Soldier.
Falcon, should anyone need reminding, is a normal non-enhanced human who's powers and abilities are pretty much as close to the Vulture as you can get. So presumably Spidey would be OK with kicking the tar out of Vulture but not punch him? Sound's like really bizarre logic to me, but whatever.
