radio of the 2000s decade, according to Nielsen data. While many today may scoff at a Nickelback leading the soundtrack, let us not forget that 2002 was the year that “How You Remind Me” was named Top Single of the Year by Billboard it ended up as the most-played song on U.S. Treading a fine line between relatable and edgy, Music from and Inspired by Spider-Man swung in right at the height of the post-grunge rock radio explosion. The album homed in on the “friendly neighborhood” aspect of Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) by saying: This is totally music that a guy would listen to right now.

Much like Sam Raimi’s franchise-starter - which had to establish a superhero movie language outside of films like Blade (1999) and X-Men (2000) - Music from and Inspired by Spider-Man felt fresh and edgy at the time, but is now delightfully dated. Notable artists: The Strokes, Sum 41, Aerosmith Most “Spider-Man” lyric: “They say that a hero can save us / I’m not gonna stand here and wait” Where to watch it: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is available to rent or buy from Amazon Prime Video.Lead single: “Hero” by Chad Kroeger feat. It doesn't hurt that it's the only Spider-Man film brave enough to let Peter Parker grow up and move on, either. This Spider-Man is saving us from the mediocrity of another by-the-numbers animated film. That being said, Into the Spider-Verse is so much more than just the best superhero movie - it's an animated feature that experiments with visual aesthetics, variable framerates and groundbreaking techniques to present us with something completely unlike any other piece of feature animation on the market. It's as unforgettable on its tenth viewing as it was on the first. Into The Spider-Verse sidesteps tropes and creates a world so dense with details it rewards multiple, multiple viewings. The rapid fire pace, the visual flourishes, the razor-tight script, the pitch perfect characterization. Into the Spider-Verse isn't just the best Spider-Man movie ever made, it's the best superhero movie ever made, period. Into the Spider-Verse is so good, we have two entries on the point. Where to watch it: Spider-Man is available to rent or buy from Amazon Prime Video, and also available to stream on Starz, which costs $8.99 per month. It's not all solemn faces and punching! All in all, it's worth it just for the performances from JK Simmons and Willem Dafoe alone. Sam Raimi balanced the silly with the serious - something more modern superhero flicks should take inspiration from. Sure, watching it back now has me cringing at some of the memes, but it's a genuinely great starting point with some impressive action and exactly the right amount of ridiculousness for a superhero movie. From the overwhelmingly theatrical portrayal of Green Goblin through to some genuinely moving moments (Uncle Ben, I'm lookin' at you), the whole thing was a ride from start to finish. Where to watch it: The Amazing Spider-Man is available to rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video, and also available to stream on Starz, which costs $8.99 per month.Īs someone who is deathly afraid of spiders, I held out on watching this for the longest time, but despite some moments where the arachnophobia got its fangs into me, it's well worth the watch. Garfield is underrated and I hope he gets another chance via the multiverse in Marvel Studios' Spider-Man 3. If only there weren't so many depressing deaths. If only its comedy wasn't so cringe and forced. Andrew Garfield's stutter, jazz hands and general endearing weirdness. 'Til Kingdom Come, originally written by Coldplay to be performed with Johnny Cash, playing over the skateboard scene.Īnd then there's Peter's Spider-Man movements actually mirroring skateboarding moves, as well as being more spider-like than his counterparts. Peter goggling at Gwen from across the classroom. The fittingly named Marc Webb, who directed (500) Days of Summer, made the whole first third of this movie feel like a small independent film. I'm here to tell you that this movie's rap for being a fairly mediocre film is - well, it's only somewhat fair.
