Still like this movie.

okay, maybe Spider-Man is not in the same class as Die Hard, but both are still plot driven, meaning that the focus of the movie rests primarily on the character's goals and actions. So in Spider-Man, his goal and actions is to defeat the Green Goblin and get MJ as his girlfriend, right?

The whole plot-driven and character-driven movies are just categories describing the structure of stories and are not all inclusive. I don't deny that Spider-Man has some substance in the characters, but in the end, it's still a plot oriented movie. I personally wouldn't think of any action movie as character driven, despite how deep the character is portrayed.

Nice observation. Ironic that in the comic books the roles are completely reversed. It's sad really.

Still love it? Yes I do

I still move it as well. The only thing, well 2 things, I disliked about it was:

1. Goblin's suit
2. MJ, I wanted Gwen first.

Spider-Man is the first and only movie that, as it was nearing the end of the film, I was wishing there was at least another half hour. Not because I felt it was lacking anything, but just because I just enjoyed it so much. I like SM2 as well, but other than the incredible fight scenes, I'd probably rather watch SM1.

Totallya agree. SM2 was a good movie but seemed kinda silly at times. And i didn't like the idea of Doc Ock being "mindcontrolled" by his tentacles.

 

[Doctor Octopus]

Still a good movie. But I enjoy Spider-Man 2 alot more.

Better action, better roles for the supporting cast, and a better villain. Dafoe was good, but his silly costume and over the top monologues weakened the character.

I still love this movie, although I do like Spidey 2 a bit more.

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.

I've never really been fond of the wrestling scene...
overall, i like the second movie the best, but the first is still a classic.
