That film was positioned as a springboard for a whole universe of Spider- Man films, including spin- offs based on The Sinister Six and Venom. Unfortunately for Sony Pictures, TASM2 was a relative under- performer by mega- blockbuster standards ($7.
Spidey film to date), and the whole Spider- Man Cinematic Universe was quietly scuttled.

Spider- Man – Using Spider- Sense For The First Time. The original Spider- Man film was a revelation for the superhero genre. Marvel’s properties were already slowly making their way to the big screen, from Blade to Bryan Singer’s X- Men, but Spider- Man was a massive critical and commercial success, a true superhero origin story on par with Richard Donner’s Superman: The Movie. In the early stages of the film, Peter Parker discovers his newly- gained abilities before applying them to battling crime. He stumbles upon his enhanced reflexes and “Spider- Sense” while casually eating lunch in the high school cafeteria. Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst) walks by and slips on a puddle, flinging her tray and all her food up in the air.
In one deft move, Peter saves her from falling, grabs her tray, and perfectly catches all the food without making a mess. Tobey Maguire performed the stunt himself, with no CGI assistance. It’s a great little moment, and it fuels the next beat, in which an accidental discharge of his web- fluid leads to school bully Flash Thompson (Joe Manganiello) starting a fight with the nerdy outcast. In the heat of the moment, with the threat of Flash’s fist looming in his face, Peter discovers that his new abilities also makes him adept at dodging attacks and laying down some major pain in a combat scenario.
In a situation every nerd has daydreamed about, Peter evades all of Flash’s punches and incapacitates the jerk jock without breaking a sweat. Spider- Man 2 – Revealing his identity to Doctor Octopus.
By the end of Spider- Man 2, Peter Parker is a far different man than he was back when he first discovered his potential to fight bad guys in that high school hallway. Otto Octavius is a fatherly mentor figure for Peter Parker, but he considers Spider- Man to be his arch nemesis, the only figure who can get in the way of his plan to (unwittingly) obliterate the city with his doomsday science experiment. Watch Driven Torent Free. Throughout the film, Peter is struggling to maintain his double life as both Peter Parker and Spider- Man, even going so far as to give up his web- slinging identity for a period of time. During the final battle with Doc Ock, Peter has to embrace the non- duality of existence and resolves his conflict with Ock – and himself – by revealing his identity to the deranged scientist.
He is Peter Parker, and he is also Spider- Man. He can’t compartmentalize both sides of his life; he can only be whole if he acknowledges that he needs to embrace the wholeness of being. Yeah, it gets pretty spiritual!
In any case, the shock of discovering that Spider- Man and Peter Parker are one and the same is enough to convince Octavius that his own one- dimensional pursuit of science glory can only end in death and destruction, and he ultimately sacrifices himself to atone for his mistakes and save the city from certain doom. Amazing Spider- Man 2 – Web- Slinging Intro Vs Rhino.
These days, The Amazing Spider- Man films are generally dismissed as being desperate stopgaps made to keep the rights to the character from returning to Marvel Studios, but the adventures of Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker certainly have their impressive moments of heart, character, and spellbinding action. Need proof? Look no further than the first scene of The Amazing Spider- Man 2. Right after a brief prologue, the film jumps right into Spidey swinging through the city and battling Russian gangster Aleksei Sytsevich, better known as Rhino. The CGI work on the web- slinger as he navigates the city is nothing short of incredible, giving our hero the grace of a ballet champion with super strength as he deftly swings between buildings. He even has a short interlude with Max Dillon (Jamie Foxx), the mild- mannered scientist who will eventually become the supervillain, Electro. Several subplots are set up in the film’s hyper- kinetic intro, with Paul Giamatti hamming it up as the heavily- accented, tracksuit- wearing Russian mobster. Unfortunately, TASM2 veers wildly off the rails after its exciting opening.
Still, it’s important to remember, especially as the years erode the relevance of the Andrew Garfield films in the fans’ minds, that it wasn’t all bad. Captain America: Civil War – In The Bedroom With Iron Man. Captain America: Civil War is a film about Steve Rogers and Tony Stark in an ideological battle of wills, with each side refusing to budge.
Captain America is loyal to the American Dream and not the suits in power, while Iron Man knows that The Avengers need to adapt or die, and that accountability is key; he should know, being the man who created Ultron and doomed Sokovia just a year before. Most of the heroes who participate in the film are established figures, with two key exceptions: Black Panther and Spider- Man. During the movie, Tony (Robert Downey Jr.) makes a detour to Queens, New York, where he meets up with a young teenager, played by Tom Holland, and his “Aunt Hottie,” played by Marisa Tomei. This scene is the formal introduction of Peter Parker and Aunt May into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it consists mainly of Tony and Peter shooting the breeze in Peter’s bedroom. The scene is packed with rapid- fire humor and the kind of tap- dancing dialogue that RDJ has come to be known for, making for a perfect trial- by- fire for Tom Holland as an actor; if he can match Downey’s pace, he’ll make it in the MCU.
Indeed, he does, and even without seeing Peter donning his iconic red and blue outfit until much later in the movie, Spider- Man’s MCU debut leaves an immediate and lasting impression on viewers. The Amazing Spider- Man – Peter Asks Out Gwen. Even among the many detractors of The Amazing Spider- Man films, it’s generally agreed upon that the chemistry between Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker and Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacey was one of the main highlights of the short- lived series. This is especially evident in an adorable scene early in the first movie. After Martin Sheen’s Uncle Ben masterfully (but deliberately and endearingly) embarrasses Peter in front of Gwen, he leaves, leaving his nephew an exquisite opening to ask his crush out on a date.
