Spider-Man 2 | Episode 129-This Podcast Takes Tokens(Vigilantes & VHS Summer 9 of 10)

We're swinging back into the Raimi-verse to tackle what might just be the pinnacle of superhero cinema—or at least the one with the most aggressive amount of unprovoked screaming. Spider-Man 2 is on the docket for our Vigilantes and VHS summer series, and we are breaking down everything from Doc Ock's surprisingly sentient (and meticulously named) robot arms to Peter Parker's unnecessary dedication to channeling his inner Clark Kent dork mask even when he's already hiding behind an actual mask. We marvel at the incredible practical effects, throw shade on the wooden CGI, question the physics of swinging from mid-air cranes, and call out Aunt May for casually swindling neighborhood kids. It's a miracle Harry Osborn has time to run a multinational corporation in between his cartoonish temper tantrums, but we still love every chaotic minute of this 2004 masterpiece. Grab a 30-minute-or-less pizza—just don't steal it from the delivery guy—and let's get into it. Love quoting old movies? Join the conversation LIVE every Thursday on YouTube!
