Spider-Man: No Way Home

Trivia: Charlie Cox was told by Marvel to see this film on its opening weekend so that he could see the crowd's reaction to his surprise cameo. He went to a theatre in his hometown in Connecticut and was snuck into the theatre by the manager. It turns out that his appearance elicited no significant reaction from the crowd, with a lone member of the audience saying, "Oh, cool."

Trivia: Although they are friends in real life, neither Andrew Garfield nor Charlie Cox knew the other was in this film. Cox texted Garfield when he arrived in Atlanta for shooting and said he thought they were doing a film together, as Garfield was heavily rumoured to be in it. Garfield responded by saying he was filming "SM," to which Cox affirmed they were doing the same film. Garfield then clarified that "SM" meant "Spider-Man," to which Cox also affirmed. It turns out they weren't in each other's scripts.

Plot hole: Otto Octavius in this movie instantly recognizes the Green Goblin as Norman Osborn, a fact that was never public at least as long as Ock lived. On the other hand, he does not react to Lizard being revealed as Curt Connors, who was a colleague of his in 'his' universe but never a freaky mutated dinosaur like in the 'other' universe.

Suggested correction: Green goblin died and his identity would've been public after his death.

Wrong. Peter placed Norman's corpse on his bed and was discovered by Harry. It's not like he left Norman's body in the building ruins to be discovered by the authorities. Harry himself didn't even know his father was the Green Goblin until the very end of Spider-Man 2. Even Norman's dying wish to Peter was to not tell Harry the truth about him.

Question: When Dr. Strange separates Peter's spirit from his body how is Peter still able to make his arm move?

Answer: His spider-sense is probably somewhat aware that his astral form has been separated from his physical body, so it is taking over and controlling his movements.

I concur with your answer because while he is separated from his suit you can see the aurora of his spider tingle all around his head.

Answer: I guess I missed something because I thought that suit was made with Stark tech and has nanotech in it. I figured it was the suit keeping the box away and Doctor Strange thought it was Peter.

That's a possibility I didn't think of, and it admittedly makes more sense than my answer.
