  • Episode #113 – Spider-Man 2

    You don't get to the MCU without first going through Spider-Man 2. In this episode, Derick McDuff of the Underrated podcast joins to have a look back at what is still considered one of the best superhero movies ever. We talk about what still holds up really well, like Peter Parker balancing his personal life with his web-slinging, the standout performances from Molina and Franco, and some things that don't hold up, like the treatment of Mary Jane. Also, we discuss some of the tropes this film helped cement that still appear in superhero movies to this day.
