427: Why Peter Parker Still Matters
from NetHeads Hosted by Will Wilkins
Spider-Man: Brand New Day may be the best live-action Spider-Man movie yet—but not because it delivers bigger action or more multiverse spectacle. It works because the movie remembers something essential: Spider-Man cannot exist without Peter Parker. In this spoiler-light review, Will explains why Peter’s loneliness, humanity, and personal history make Brand New Day hit differently—and why Jon Bernthal’s Punisher nearly steals the entire movie.
