Spider-Man 2 2004
loved it since childhood but hadn't seen it in 10+ years. still absolutely amazing. everything you could ask for out of a superhero movie imo. raimi understands what makes Spiderman so great. just look at how little swinging we get in the new movies!!! the swinging in this movie is sooooooooo good

I can tell Denis loved making this movie. So happy with it

I'd mentally lumped it in with like spy kids and stuff for some reason but I suspected I'd still love it watching it again
