I was watching Spiderman 1 yesterday. And I realized that I still enjoy this movie. The over the top wrestling scene is good Raimi, not the actual fight between Bonesaw and Spidey, but everything leading up to it. The running on the roof top was a good style choice. Uncle Ben's final scene always gets me tearing up.
The only thing I don't think I like is how Mary Jane is portrayed. I mean it works for the movie. Even though I never read any of the comics, I expected Mary Jane to be more of a fire crakcker than a just a popular girl at school. I don't even mind that they grew up together, it helps explain Peter's love for her quickly which is needed for the movie. But I don't really see how she cares for him other than "Wait a second, I've had it all along" Peter has alot to offer MJ, always has, but what does MJ have to offer Peter, you know? I think the cartoon did an excellent job of capturing what I know from the comics to be acurate "Face it Tiger, you just hit the jackpot" Where's that in the movie.
