Ep 185 Spider-Man: Do You Expect Us To Talk?

Posted on by

Do You Expect Us To Talk? returns with another series and to Marvel, long before the extended universe became a thing. In many ways Spider-man gave super hero movies the big push to the big screen. Directed by The Evil Dead’s Sam Raimi, it stars Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker and follows him through high school through to getting bitten by a genetically engineered spider and gaining spider-like powers. With great power comes great responsibility, Peter becomes a masked crime fighter, while new nemesis, The Green Goblin emerges.

Follow Becca, Dave and Chris as we discuss, how crap screen versions of spider-man were before this film, does Spider-Man 2002 hold up today, why it would make sense for Peter to let the robber with odd memorable hair pass, villains that die leaving the hero not accountable, high schoolers in their 30s, Harry Osborn is a terrible friend and why would MJ ever be interested in a weird stalkery crybaby.
