About Spider-Man Movie:
After incorporating elements of comic book style and design into many of his films, director Sam Raimi helms this straight-ahead, big-budget comic book adaptation, which also marks acclaimed young actor Tobey Maguire's first dip into live-action blockbuster filmmaking. Spider-Man follows the template of the original Stan Lee/Steve Ditko source material, with hero Peter Parker an orphaned, intellectual teen loner living in Queens with his aunt (Rosemary Harris) and uncle (Cliff Robertson), and dreaming of the girl next door, Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst). On a field trip to a Columbia University lab, Peter is bitten by a genetically altered spider and overnight he gains superhuman strength, agility, and perception. At first, Peter uses his powers for material gain, winning a wrestling match with a purportedly lucrative prize. But when Peter apathetically fails to stop a burglar from robbing the wrestling arena, a tragedy follows that compels him to devote his powers to fighting crime -- as the superhero Spider-Man. When he's not busy fighting crime in a spider suit, Peter moves into an apartment with his best friend, Harry (James Franco), and begins work as a photographer at the Daily Bugle. Meanwhile, his do-gooder alter ego finds a nemesis in the form of the Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe), a super-powered, megalomaniacal villain who happens to be the alter ego of Harry's father, weapons-manufacturing mogul Norman Osborn. Spider-Man was written by the prolific blockbuster scribe David Koepp (Jurassic Park, Panic Room).

I like the way Uncle Ben smiles a little bit when he sees Peter, like he's so terrified to die on that street corner surrounded by strangers, but then his beloved nephew shows up, so at least he can be with him one more time before he dies.

"I missed the part where that's my problem." savage

Raimi absolutely nailed Uncle Ben's death. The way we get to see his relationship with Peter, his talk with him about responsibility, and the way he looks genuinely scared about dying is beyond pitch perfect. No film could've captured this scene more beautifully.

“My Uncle Ben was killed. It was my fault. The night Ben died, I hunted down the man who I thought did it. I wanted him dead. I got what I wanted. It didn't make it better. It took me a long time to learn to get through that darkness.”

"Stop that guy!" Peter : Trips robber Credit rolls

It REALLY hits differently after watching Across the Spider-Verse now.
-
2:50 The moment he stops crying... absolutely terrifying. I've been rewatching the Spidermen movies a lot recently, and the fact this is when he is about to web swing efficiency for the first time, the end of sadness to focused rage, the steely determination... it blows my mind that people think Andrew is the "darker" spiderman, when Tobey sheds his sorrow and is enveloped in rage in but a few seconds and just starts hunting the other down.
-
That cop had no right to reprimand Peter though. Technically speaking, the safest thing to do was to get out of the thief's way, since he had a gun.
-
He really felt like a real uncle, no one will ever top him
-
"I looked at my uncle Ben and then...." "Uhh, let me guess, he died?"
-
So sad. That whole day uncle ben must've felt bad. Peter telling him he isn't his father even though he raised peter, uncle ben waiting outside by himself for peter to be done, runs into a robber and gets shots, just laying on the floor by himself dying. Even after all that, still put one last smile just seeing peter there. Smiled like he saw his son.

"The hardest thing about this job is, you can't always save everybody." -Spider-Ham
-
This scene perfectly captures the birth of Spider-Man right here, as it wasn’t the spider that turned Peter into Spider-Man but rather his uncle’s death and the lesson of responsibility that did
-
This hits a whole lot different after seeing Across the Spider-Verse..
-
One of many canon events across the Spider-Verse
-
This is the saddest scene in Spider-man history. R.I.P the actor. he did an amazing job
-
Most realistic crying i ever seen bravo Tobey Maguire. You'll always be MY spiderman
-
I thought it was really cool how Across the Spiderverse showed that a canon event is not just when a Spider-Man's uncle dies, but when a Spider-Man experiences the death of somebody close to them that proves to them that with great power comes great responsibility, thus making them a true superhero.

“Uncle Ben, what happened?” “Squid Games‼️”
