Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 1: Why it still holds up today.
It’s not overstating it to say that Spider-Man is one of, if not THE most popular superhero in todays age. Since his inception in 1962 by Marvel comics creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko (RIP), the web slinger has crawled his way into millions of hearts over his 64 years of being around. It’s pretty easy to see why- Peter Parker, the boy turned man behind the mask was an average person instead of a millionaire, or esteemed soldier, or revered God. People can relate to him because his struggles are ones far different than other superheroes at the time were. For many, their knowledge of Spider-Man comes from the comics of his that they read, and for others it might be from the TV shows they watched his adventures from. For me, My first memory of the icon was when I caught the ending of 2002’s Spider-Man, where Willem Dafoes Green Goblin got impaled by his own glider. As first impressions go I was a little scared since I was only about five or six years old at the time and I saw it on television, but for whatever reason that image stuck with me, and I found myself with an urge to watch the whole movie someday. When I did…. I thought it was really enjoyable, and I’ve watched it several times since then.
