Spider-Man

my first rewatch since i was a kid: william defoe didn’t need to go this hard but he did obviously. tobey maguire has the aura of a wet napkin for the first 40 minutes and somehow it WORKS. mj spends the entire movie being passed. harry is fighting demons that have not even happened yet. aunt may is serving and a QUEEN. uncle ben dies and it’s his nephews fault. the green goblin suit is objectively ridiculous. i would change NOTHING. “you know, i’m something of a scientist myself” OKAYYYY and that upside-down kiss??? CINEMA. unfortunately it also convinced an entire generation that kissing someone while they’re soaking wet and unable to breathe is romantic. the final fight is genuinely insane though. why did goblin beat peter’s ASS like he owed him rent?? that brick wall was personal. the opening credits make me feel like i’m about to witness the most important event in human history.
