This week on the program, haven't we seen this movie 10,000 times?
It's the Amazing Spider-Man.
I'm Andrew Jupin.
Stephen Sadeh.
Chris Cabin.
The Amazing Eric Siska.
And we saw that coming.
Hello, everyone, welcome to we hate movies.
Thank you for tuning in, as always.
That's right, the 2019 summer blockbuster extravaganza rolls on with the amazing Spider-Man from the year of our Lord 2012,
the year this whole thing was supposed to fucking end and it didn't, directed by,
Mark Webb.
You mean the world?
I meant the planet at large.
I would have been amazing if it did.
Like that guy that had that van outside the garden for all those months leading up.
It was like, come on, baby.
And it turned out that lunatic was wrong.
Tail getting the apocalypse.
I like it.
I mean, we really should have all died in 2012.
We wouldn't have had to live through what we have these past few years.
Oh, fuck.
Wait a second.
Fan theory.
We've been dead the whole time.
We've been dead the whole time.
For reality?
This is our afterlife.
He's a fan of reality, Chris.
Just a message
to the maker, you can hit send on that
email anytime.
You know what I mean?
Like, just because you missed it in 2012
doesn't mean you missed the window.
Yeah, man, nobody's going to be checking time codes.
You can just send that email.
He's going to wake up in like 2030.
Oh, shit, that's still a drafts.
No, I said, I ended that.
Oh, what? Oh, what?
Oh, I got...
This is ridiculous.
I got hung up on whether I should have said
thanks are best at the end.
This movie, of course,
was the first Spider-Man reboot.
Right. And it's 2012, which we should mention,
yes, is breaking our usual 10-year rule.
Yeah, nobody cares.
Yeah, exactly.
At least the four people in this room who run the show.
The thing is, there's a Spider-Man movie out.
Right.
And we're going to talk about it, Spider-Men's when the movies are out.
And it's Spider-Man, it's Funer and Far from Home
after Homecoming.
what's what's the third one going to be we're going to keep home
Spider-Man home cooking dude
just to make it a sandwich
Spider-Man housekeeping
oh actually if it was Spider-Man home cooking
it takes place around Thanksgiving
and like the vulture gets out of jail
and they cook them
Spider-Man Home Alone could happen
oh dude Spider-Man homeless
Aunt May can't fucking keep up the rent
and for some reason
their refused entrance to
the Avengers compound or Stark Tower
Spider-Man Homeowners Association, that's the difficult one.
Oh, right.
Oh, it's him just fighting people about the color of his siding.
Yeah, bureaucracy at the wazoo.
They wouldn't even let Spider-Man have a garden.
How about the Spider-Man retirement home?
Come on, that'll be the last one.
Yeah, that's right.
Old Man Spider-Man.
Steve Sadek, you're the expert on Spider-Man.
No, I'm not.
Has there ever been an elderly Spider-Man?
I'm sure there has to have been.
There was, yeah, like that Earth X was like a future-y kind of a thing.
I don't know. I don't think you've ever seen like a really old
Earth X, that's when Professor X owns the planet.
It's like a whole fucking thing that was like kind of trying to be kingdom come from
Marvel. They got the same artist.
Oh, really? So it was the same painted?
Yes, but this son of a bitch only did the covers and I was like, I'm out.
That was like, oh, I'll do the covers and the right, yeah.
I kind of wish I had the comic continuity for all the stuff I like because with comics,
it's just like, yep, that happened.
At some point.
Everything has happened.
Let me say, though, I think.
think the idea behind Spider-Man retirement home is he has some sort of terminal illness, and he
convinces Jay Jonah Jameson to help him with assisted suicide, and Jay Jonah Jameson puts his thumb
on the web slinger button and helps him press it, and it shoots a web right on his face, and he suffocates
himself and he does. That'd be great. Right? The thing is, yeah, because he's got like Parkinson's now,
he's just shooting webs on the floor all the time. So it's like sad.
God, that is fucking sad.
Yeah, I can still, I can still do the, I'm still the web crawler.
I can crawl, but it's only on the ground.
All right, Mr.
All right, Mr. Fury.
I'm going to go help you in a minute.
I just have to go to the bathroom.
Ha!
Oh!
It's just difficult.
It hurts what he peaty stones, spidey stones.
Passing all of these spidey stones.
The webbing's like dusty.
Oh.
Well, he ain't there yet, but,
This Andrew Garfield was pushing 30 years old, making this movie, by the way.
We did the math, Steve.
What was he, 28, 29 years old?
29 years old, yeah.
Oh, really?
Now, previous episode, if you don't know, we did the sequel to this movie already.
We always like...
Oh, we're working backwards.
Exactly.
Our Spider-Man trilogy is as such.
We did Amazing Spider-Man Part 2.
Then we did Spider-Man 3.
And now we're doing Amazing Spider-Man.
Whatever, you guys.
It's the summer, and I'm on vacation.
We did one on screen for far from home,
and we're going to have to wait for a double-
W-LM to do the first two.
Yeah.
A home-coming.
Homecoming, yes.
Far from home, maybe we'll get to it.
I re-watched the first two Ramey movies back when I got that PS4 game.
They're great.
They totally hold up.
I think the first one is really, really good, and it's a little cheesy but fun.
I like it, but that's also like, we just have 35-year-olds going to high school.
Everyone is too big for like the chairs in that movie.
It's like Homer when he has to go to parent-teacher night.
But at least he graduates in that first movie.
They kind of rush him off to college.
They got to look at Toby McGuire.
This guy's got to go to college.
But now, Andrew Garfield, who I do not like.
Really?
The author I get the less I like him.
He should, no, you look at him in this movie.
Why is he not playing Slender Man?
Because this guy is a beanstalk.
In a Spider-Man movie, Slender Man now gets into this.
How about Spider-Man v. Slender Man?
in that Slender Man movie though
was it played by a person
or was it just like CGI? I think it's mostly
just CGII. Maybe Doug Jones
showed up probably. Doug Jones is
in a rip-off Slender Man.
Are you serious? Tell me of this.
Okay. We should get Doug Jones to stand
on top of his head, his own head, like
CGI that. Sure. To make your
Slenderman. I want like a
person portraying Slender Man.
I don't not want this
CGI's. I liked
one of the, I'll full
disclosure. I liked this movie when it came out.
I remember, like,
that was all right. That was pretty good.
Yeah, it wasn't crazy about it, but I was like, oh, it's a
step in the right direction, because everyone
was so burned by Spider-Man 3
or most people were. Some people
will defend that movie. That's fine.
Oh, no, Doug Jones was the by-bye man.
Yeah, he was the by-bye, not the Slender Man.
No, but, oh, right, excuse me.
I'm mixing up stupid things I don't like.
Don't think it's saying. I got to find this other
movie. It's here somewhere. Keep on.
Beware of the Sender Man or something like that.
But one of the things, one of the things I liked about this movie was him, and I did like the slender Spider-Man, because it's like, that's of akin of how Spider-Man kind of...
I want a chunky spider-man.
I thought, Tobin McGuire Husky?
What are you talking about?
Is it a little thick, dude?
Is that right?
Listen, in 2002, Toby McGuire was thin as a rail.
Sure.
But they keep moving the bar on me, and I keep getting fatter every year.
Well, no, that I know.
I mean, I'm never going to be thin.
That's okay.
But Toby McGuire is a small man.
He's like the size of a Rubik's cube.
He played a jockey in the sea biscuits.
Yeah, that's true.
No, I mean, I don't know.
But if you look at the stills between the two,
he's a little...
You want the Sevelte Spider-Man so you can jump around the building.
You want a tall Spider-Man.
Yes, that's a taller, skinnier kind of...
That's like tradition.
You've become everyone you hate.
Well, that's the problem I think, like,
from the beginning with this movie,
is that it's not very, it's all very trying to be adultish.
Yes.
Like, from the beginning, like, centering it on his parents being like him and his parents being
the first thing out the gate rather than in Homecoming where it's like literally, well, it starts
with vulture.
It's not a great idea when you're writing your Spider-Man movie to have Batman begins on in the
room you're writing it.
Like, it's just, you want to watch that movie, then turn it off?
Yeah, it seems like this movie is trying to go for that, like, the weight of the world.
It's got a real
There's a lot of brown in this movie
I will say this movie is kind of nice
In terms of like the grandeur of the city
We get a lot of shots of him on top of a building
That actually feels scary and large
The world feels big in a way
I don't think any other Spider-Man does
Yeah and I don't know what
If any they filmed in New York
Well I know that the Ramey movies
We're here quite a bit
I mean, yeah, I see what you're saying, though.
There are better shots of, like, the city on the whole, which I do like.
And they removed most, if not all, the camp from the, like, you know, obviously those first,
and the third one went obviously way too far, but the first two.
It seems like it needs some.
Those rigs, yeah, I kind of think it needs a little bit of slapstick, like, kind of camp.
There is a fight sequence later on where Spider-Man goes full Mr. Bean.
So there is a little bit there, but not enough.
So did you find your Slenderman movie?
I can't find it, because it's just got some bullshit.
a title and I'm not just going to
call it. I'm just going to call it. Yeah.
Doesn't exist. No, this thought is
fucking DOA.
It's all right. The, uh, yeah, so
we start on, it's
a young Peter Parker, which we've not
seen before. Thank God we get to see
him as it's true. And he's
playing hide and seek with his father. I
do appreciate the mad about you that's
on in the background. Anyone see that?
No, I missed it. They're a mad about you
household. Tell me why.
I live like I do.
this from this makes us a must see Tuesday and a must see Thursday that was always like the the bastardization of the must see Thursday yeah Andrew I found it in like a second that's great always watching a marble hornet story 2015 American found footage supernatural horror film starting Doug Jones as the quote unquote operator who then just looks like slender man got it that's what it was so one thank you I'm not crazy but also uh the reason I wasn't going back that far was
because this was something that we hadn't offered to, like, do a screening of literally last year.
Really?
Yeah.
So that's, that explains.
And you didn't ask Mr. Jones in?
I was like, we should do this screening if Doug Jones can come.
And it was like, we're not offering.
You know, it's a cheap idea to do.
And what do you guys think about us making, like, fat man?
A fat man?
A fat dude in the woods.
I mean, he's going to be less convincing, less seductive than Sender Man.
What are we getting at here?
Because we can do that this weekend.
We've been training for it for a while.
I think we could all play The Fatman.
So, yes, it's Young Peter Parker.
It's Must See Tuesday.
And this is the thing.
Sure, these movies, at least this one,
I really don't remember what goes on in that second one
other than Jamie Fox.
But like this movie, yeah, it might be absent of that camp.
Yeah.
But when what it takes away in the camp,
it adds in a totally needless
and never really again address.
conspiracy theory about Peter Parker's parents
and what are we even doing?
It's one of those things where it's like,
no, save it for the sequel.
No, no.
And then the sequel comes like,
no, no, save it for the next sequel.
Guess what?
You never fucking told that story.
Nope.
It's so enraging when movies drop the ball.
Tell me the story you want to tell me now.
You've got me today.
Yeah, what you want to tell now, tell me now.
Exactly.
We're telling you now now.
Guess what's interesting about Bruce Wayne's parents?
They're fucking dead.
That's the whole thing.
But he gives a fuck.
Well, that's the thing, too, is like, this, and Andrew and I were talking before you guys got here,
it's like, the movie is like two hours and 15 minutes.
The first 45 minutes can be told in 30 seconds because that's what we already know.
Like, we've seen that movie before.
I don't know why they-
Dennis Lurie doesn't even show him for 55 fucking minutes and his death is pivotal at the end.
Right.
And I don't know why.
Like, I really wish someone would explain why they felt they had to tell this again.
At least in fucking homecoming.
you start and Uncle Ben is dead.
Yes.
You at least have that out of the way.
So it's him just becoming Spider-Man, which fucking whatever.
It really is fucking crazy because you know,
now so many people complain like,
oh, they're making too many Star Wars movies.
Could you imagine if multiple of them, most of them,
were just like, oh, yeah, here's the story
of Luke Skywalker again.
Exactly.
Everyone knows Spider-Man.
Every single time he has to go to the fucking,
there's always the scene with the Jawa's where the first droid.
is going to blow up, and the second
droid has to come. Like, we don't
need every detail shot for shot.
It's crazy. He's looking at the twin sons again.
Well, there was that one Star Wars
reboot where we already
started with Uncle Owen and Amperu were already
crispy creditors, so that was nice.
That was a great one. I like the Star Wars
reboot. We finally got to the Tashi
Station, and we saw the power
fucking that was going on there.
I think Tashi Station, by the way,
my theory about Tashi Station is like,
yeah, you're going there to check
the power converter situation.
That's just space prostitutes.
Really? I thought it was like code for like whippets in the parking room.
Yeah.
Oh,
it's weird.
It's dude. Like fucking weird canisters.
Oh, dude, Tashi Station is just the
Star Wars equivalent of a Taco Bell and you're just in their parking lot getting high.
Exactly.
It's just a chain restaurant.
So it's like, you're not going to have you eat that cheap doback meat again, Luke.
I get to stay home and have a real meal.
I get heavy duty grease West Side Story feeling from Tashi Station.
Like he goes up there and there's going to be like people.
right with the lasers
yeah
little vibro blades they cut you with
those those are the
wombrats that's another
that's another gang
when he says we shot womprats at home
he was killing people
he was killing a rival gang
killed Johnny and Jimmy from the
wombrats
my T-14 back home he used to bomb these
fuckers
and actually what he was trying to get
a power converter is actually hair gel
because what Luke really wanted to have
was the duck's ass haircut.
He has it normally, but he just ran out of
hair gel that day. That's where I get the flop.
You know, this could have easily happened with George Lucas
behind the helm, just make it like a fucking
greaser car movie.
It's not a hair gel at that point. It's just
du back sweat.
And dubeck sweat that you just put
through your hair. You just mix some sugar in it
dude and stir it for a bit and bring it
to a boil? That's your hair gel.
That's Star Wars hair gel.
Whatever.
The most bone-chilling bit of hide-and-seek I've ever seen.
So Campbell Scott is the father.
What's his name, Ray?
Richard.
Richard, pardon me.
And he's playing hide-and-seek with Peter.
And he does this creepy thing where it's like he's got like little shoes sticking out from behind these drapes.
And then like Peter pulls the curtains.
And it's a hat and a fucking broom falls over.
I would have been shrieking.
And then all the doors lock it simultaneously.
You're mine now, Peter.
I thought this was a ghost movie at first.
Want to play a game.
Also, Dick Parker, I hardly know her.
So he goes into his father's study.
It's been burgled.
He yells for his father.
His father immediately starts erasing spider equations from the wall.
Yeah, got to get that spider math off the wall.
And I think I was very forgiving the first time I saw that.
This time, and it's the only second time I've ever seen this movie ever.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, yeah, that's stupid.
Why would you need to doodle a spider on a chalkboard?
I know that I'm talking about spiders.
This guy's a little friendly.
Oh, I'm going to give him a couple cute little beady eyes there.
I think Riesifans was like just running off his mouth on the phone.
They're on the long conference.
I'm going to draw a little spider here.
Is that a tick?
A flea?
No.
Oh, a spider.
Okay.
And it's the one thing you never want to have your parents do is like essentially just like cut and run.
Yes.
Like, all right, we're packing a bag tonight.
We've got to get the hell out of here.
We're going to drop you off.
Oh, perfect for the theme of the evening.
evening it started raining really hard and Mbeth Davis is the mother oh right and she has a line in
this movie maybe well save it for the sequel dude when she's screaming in that playing crash oh that's
right speaking of Batman just watching those Batman movies tell me what Bean wears a mask like it's
it's the same scene um so he he drops Peter off at his uncle's uncle and aunt Martin Sheen and
Sally Field there.
So now that Richard Parker
and Mrs. Parker
are in this storyline
now, and I do not
follow Spider-Man comics. I watch the cartoon
a little bit when I was a kid. That's it.
So I never
really understood that he had parents
at any point. I mean, you know what I mean.
That his parents were ever featured
at any point. Yeah, is this a thing?
Yeah, it is. Is it? A little bit.
So is Richard, like,
Ben's little brother? Are they
related that way? I think they're brothers.
I don't remember. There's
a couple things. One, there is
like the spy element. Richard Parker
worked for the CIA, I think.
Oh, so this is canon. Yeah, it's dumb-ass
shit is canon. I don't think he was the scientist.
He was like an actual spy.
Oh, I see. Disabilizing Iran or something.
Oh, totally, dude.
That's funny. I put spiders in their water or something.
In this movie, I got, I smelled
heavy college roommates or something.
Like, this did not
smell like, oh, we know each other by blood.
Yeah, the Uncle Ben was like
Dark Helmet to Lone Star kind of thing
Your brother's former roommate
But like Martin Sheen is significantly older than Campbell Scott
I dude man this doesn't make sense
Well they're not de-aging Campbell Scott
No he's like present day or 2012
Campbell's got a little you know he's got a bit of a case of older parents
Kind of a situation right yeah well they're you know
They're both intellectuals man they were concentrating on like
dissertations and research
and whatnot. But he drops his kid off
and he drops off $0 to
take care of him. They're in a beautiful brownstone.
He's got fucking Oscore money
somewhere. Yep. And now
fucking like, you know,
Ben Parker's got to work three shit
just to get afloat. This is Star Wars
because they didn't give him glowing any money.
No, he didn't get a red
credit, dude.
Yeah, you're totally right. And yeah,
it's like, we're going to leave
our Manhattan townhouse. You know,
you know, and take you out to Queens and live in this, you know,
not as nice house. Yeah, whatever. Yeah. And he's shown
to be a mechanic or something, Ben Parker is a little, he's wearing a little
a jumpsuit for the most part. Right. He does say something about it. He had to
like, but he's working like a night shift or something. It doesn't
really matter. It's like this Dickie's work shirt or something. Yeah, I don't know
what he's doing. He's just a real, you know, lunch pale and cup of coffee kind of guy.
He has the same job he had in Wall Street.
I wish he had the same death
that he got in the departed,
which is my favorite thing in the world.
Jesus, that's great.
Thrown off a building
and run over by a car.
Yeah,
time.
Like any you mugs got a light
and somebody throws him off a roof?
Dude,
the slow motion,
him just fucking falling.
It reminded me of
in the Fresh Prince
with Jazzy Jeff
would get thrown out of the house.
Yeah,
you know what I mean?
Jazzy Jeffed off the roof,
dude.
I want to hear this conversation
because the way they set up the scene
is like the four adults
are in the kitchen,
they're at the table.
and little Peter's
like out in the other room and whatnot
I want to hear like
all right man listen
I promise we're going to come back
for this kid
I promise you
we will be coming back
for this kid
it's gonna be like a week tops
don't worry about it
and yes I'll definitely
wire the money
like he's just making
all these empty promises
knowing he will later be murdered
what if Martin Sheen was like
his guy
his bookie and he's like
you gotta leave that kid here
for collateral
oh yeah
totally we'll skip out
yeah just call me uncle
uncle
Ben's hiding all the letters that fucking Campbell Scott is sending to Peter Parker.
Oh, gosh.
He throws him in the incinerator.
Still owes me 25 Lodge.
So, yeah.
I mean, that's pretty much like the origin story here.
And then it just,
it cuts to Andrew Garfield in high school somehow.
Getting a basketball thrown to his noodle.
Right.
And this Peter Parker, he's skateboards.
Yeah.
By the way, I say noodle because his head's so thin.
because it's portrayed by fucking Andrew Garfield.
You see, like, his day-to-day routine,
and it is much like every other iteration
of Peter Parker having to be in high school.
He's picked on by Flash Thompson.
I got it.
I got it.
Oh, what do you got it?
Oh, no, I mean, that's what I'm saying.
I totally understand this.
Because you're looking at your cell phone right now,
so I thought you were pulling up some grand piece of evidence about something.
I'm just trying to figure some thing.
But, yeah, you see him skateboarding.
He heads of the basketball throwing against his head.
There's this really weird thing where, like,
these two kids are making out fucking.
hard against his locker.
Welcome to sex high, dude.
Totally sex high. I was like, where's any school
administrator? This is really inappropriate.
Fucking tongue kissing
before science class. And it's supposed to be
like a joke. It's one of those things. There's a few of these
big jokes where like physical like
they keep rolling onto another
locker that he's trying to get to.
Correct. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's really
annoying. It's yeah. And it's kind
of not funny. And in a movie that is
almost entirely like
comedyless, like,
let's just get to it
I mean it is
this movie is more like
trying to be subtly funny
like there's a lot of like
quippy stuff around
but it's not like
right no no overt
gags like this I guess is what I
meant yeah
I don't even think what he says
is that funny
it's the way Andrew Garfield
speaks yeah he's like kind of a wise
yeah he's got like a sing-songy way
of doing all of his dialogue
I prefer a good wiseacre
to Toby McGuire
who's like hey gotcha
there's and like
this is this ain't your
Mama's Spider-Man movie, he gets
the shit kicked out of him by Flash Thompson.
It's like a fucking scene from Goodfellas out of nowhere.
Oh, he's fucking brutal.
Hounding this guy's face. It's ridiculous.
I think they're trying to go realistic here
because they have him being beaten.
And then, like, a minute later, it's like this
introspective, quote-unquote,
like, indie rock music.
And it's like focusing on Peter just like
living his shit life.
I don't know, dude. He sees this one kid getting bullied.
He starts mouthing off to this much bigger kid.
Big mistake, Peter.
Absolutely. You keep that head down.
You're just trying to make it through the day, dude.
this soundtrack though is like hardcore uh
2012 though I feel
I was trying to look up oh yeah so here we go yeah we got
like the shins and phantom planet
there's a cold play song in this movie there certainly is
that's really what seals the deal is like it's like it's like a
ladder period cold play song and they double that up in the sequel
where like Pharrell is on there okay go is on there
doof I don't I don't like
pop music in superhero movies
I don't know I mean it's it can be used effectively
I think I think the only time honestly I think it's really
affected me in any way is when they play Ramones and
Homecoming yeah and I was like oh that
thematically and yeah I mean it has to be specific it has to be like
this is what we're seeing or this is what we're doing right
you're just playing this fucking cold play song
so you're saying like Macy Gray and Spider-Man 1
oh that's an element of that film that doesn't hold up
thank you for reminding me
I try to sling a web and I choked.
Oh, man.
Try to catch the goblin.
I stumble.
Macy Gray would have been a great Spider-Man.
Oh, sure, dude.
She's just drunkenly throwing webs at people.
She, so he, whatever, he goes home with a black guy.
He's beaten in.
Yes.
And his uncle's like, oh, what happened?
What's the other guy look like?
A Mott and she in this movie.
I'm kind of working class.
Am I ever going to call somebody's father?
I'm so working class.
I'm going to waste a giant piece of steak on you.
Dude, you're putting on your fucking face.
It's cold a fucking ice cube,
no, brother.
It's 1950, and we just have a fucking giant ice cube in the basement and 50 stakes around.
The only time I have seen that ever, like, realistically addressed,
and I'm using realistically loosely here, is that episode of Seinfeld,
it's like later period Seinfeld where Kramer, uh,
takes showers for too long,
so he's in the locker room
and he's taking notes
and the guy punches him.
Jerry gives him a steak
and he puts it on
and then the end of the scene
Kramer takes the steak with him
to go cook and eat it later.
And I was like, exactly.
Of course you would.
Well, Peter,
the only thing your piece of shit father
actually keeps sending me
is a monthly Omaha steak package.
So this is the one thing
we've got from your piece of shit father.
We're fucking choke it on steak over here, Peter.
We're choking on it.
And you know, your uncle can't have
red meat as much anymore, Peter.
He's trying to kill me. Your father's trying
to kill me from afar now.
And then when they're in their basement, they find
like a bag that's from
Dick Parker.
It's Dick Parker's like work bag.
Excellent dad bag. It's a great dad
dad bag. Totally love this dad bag.
Ben Parker is like, yeah, you find any money
in it, it's mine. Yeah, just
FYI, that's all mine.
Check out for a secret compartment.
He's a real sneaky fuck your father.
Every tell you how much of a cheap
skate your father was it's been down there
forever no one knew it was there
well he says something he's like oh
we forgot about that yeah something like
that it's like hidden under the stairs
and he
takes it up to his room he
he's got he looks
he finds a secret compartment
not really it's just like the back it's zippered
he finds a big full it's just a pouch
yeah he finds a folder filled with spider
formulas and all this shit it's like great
so many spider formulas and he
uncle Ben comes in he's like hi everything
okay champ and like as he's doing it he's got this matt lower slash fucking jerk off button that like he
can electronically lock his door from afar it's definitely i got the pornography going oh absolutely
but i mean what a what a pleasure to have such a thing where you're a high school boy absolutely
you know what i mean just like click oh what's that not for nothing he's got fucking emma stone
who he's they're not friends they're not uh they're certainly not going out together right she's his
desktop background.
Oh my God.
Later in the film when he's like,
he's got you on his computer.
Yeah.
Yikes.
That's enough to kill him right there.
I mean,
have him gun down in the school.
At the same time,
maybe he should be because this guy
seems like a dangerous stalker.
Yes, he does.
She doesn't even know he's alive.
Well,
she knows him a little bit.
Like they,
they're like aware of his existence.
Yes.
Like when the flash and him are
about to fucking go at it and she
stops him.
She clearly gives him a little wing.
His home page is that picture of her on Facebook that she took at her friend's pool party.
That's it. That's it.
Yep.
No, exactly right.
And the picture is like some other couple of friends of Gwen Stacey's like posing for the photograph.
But then in the background, it's Gwen Stacey picking a frisbee up off the lawn.
And he's always in a bathing.
And she's not tagged in it.
She is untagged herself.
Absolutely not.
And he's always accidentally liking it at three of the morning.
He sits next. He sits next to him at lunch, and he doesn't know it.
And then he's like, so only one pieces, huh?
Can't spring for the two-fers.
See, if it was that bad, yeah, I'd say he's the creep of the year.
I think he's just got a crush on it.
So he realizes that his father used to work for Oz, Corey.
And I guess he never asked, like, Uncle Ben, like, hey, what did my dad do?
Well, there's a photo of, like, Kurt Connors.
Is that the name of the Lizardman?
and he brings it up with Martin Sheen and Martin, she's like, well, I wouldn't know much about that.
I've got, I've got like the education of a 10-year-old boy.
He says, like, how much smarter Peter Parker is.
He's like, he clipsed his education.
So he's never graduated high school then, which is fine.
But I just thought it was a funny lie.
Yeah, he only has a great school education and he's a boomer, so that means he's got a house.
he owns his own home in New York City
Thank you very much
This house is worth like a million dollars
You know people outside of the city
Would be like, wait, what? But it's true
Yes, it's totally true and in reality
If they sold it, it would be sold to somebody
Who would turn it into three different apartments
Without question
That's what they should do when fucking Ben dies
Just flip that shit
Move into a nice little apartment
Then you got Peter's college fund all settled
Absolutely
Instead of living in destitution like they do
Yeah, they could move to Jersey or to island.
Yeah, totally.
Live in a lap of luxury.
Totally, totally could.
So, yeah, but the other thing that Uncle Ben says about Kirk Connors is that he fucking
ghosted the funeral and never came back.
He's like, oh, I remember that guy, Connie.
He was like, your dad's best friend.
Haven't heard fucking shit from him lately.
But am I remembering this wrong?
Because when he shows in the photograph initially, he's like, like Uncle Ben's like,
Oh, yeah.
And then later he's like, I shouldn't have lied to you.
That's Dr. Kurt Connors.
he was actually your father's partner and best friend
and definitely ghosted that funeral.
I think that did happen, yeah.
But what,
I don't understand what happened to Ben Parker
between saying, I don't know who that guy is
and then coming clean.
Because there's some, it's all about whatever they talked
about that kitchen table that's never going to be told
to us, the audience, because this franchise failed.
Right.
It's like, oh, the big secret that happened at Oskore
that you're never going to know about.
It's all working up to just making Norman Osborne,
the Green Gobblis.
That I think...
Wow, that'll...
Which happens
in the first 25 minutes
in the last fucking movie.
Exactly.
But like talk about...
Like, this is already
two hours and 16 minutes.
You want to shave some time off?
How about the first time?
Who the fuck is this in the photograph?
It's Dr. Kirk Connors.
Let's get on with it.
You could cut out,
like Steve mentioned,
50 minutes in the movie, easy.
Like the first 50 minutes,
you start out with...
We already know who Spider-Man is.
Sure.
We know everything about this shit.
Because you bought a ticket.
Martin Sheen could be a fucking photograph.
Totally.
And then you just start out with like, oh, fuck the lizard.
And then you get that dichotomy of him just going to do this internship and not really realizing that the lizard is also his mentor.
I don't even think they say his name in Homecoming.
I don't even think you get an Uncle Ben.
No, they don't.
There's one.
There's a, I don't know that they say Ben, because I remember thinking this, there's some line where.
Aunt May's been through a lot.
Yes, that's what it is.
That's what it is. That's what it is.
That is the whole of what they do with, and it cuts so much bullshit out of that movie.
Because everyone who fucking saw Homecoming was like, oh, Uncle Ben, got it.
Yeah, immediately.
And if you didn't, it doesn't matter.
And I don't have to deal with the training.
My God, the training.
So much training and gadget development, which we'll get to.
So, yeah, it's like, oh, this is Kirk Connors.
He works at OzCorps.
So Peter goes to see, you know, try to meet him or whatever.
He winds up ruining this one kid's entire future.
Ricardo Guevara?
Yes, I think that's correct.
So he goes to the Oscourt lobby.
It's like the receptionist thinks that he's there for an internship program.
She's like, without asking for an identification from this kid at all, like, oh, grab your name tag off the intern table to the left.
He steals one and then gets up with the group.
Gwen Stacy is the tour guide.
She's also a current intern at OzCore.
She's the head intern as a high school student?
Yes, thank you.
How is this even legal?
What is going on here?
How is this scientist from one of the like Fortune 500 companies?
Well, this was 2012, dude.
So this was still a few years before we started making a stink about paying interns.
Well, not only that, but like, it's a college kid.
It's like an underage girl that's the head intern under like this known scientist.
She's doing science in this movie.
You would think there would be like graduate students.
or something that might be a little more qualified.
She's opening the mail.
She's getting, you know what I mean?
That's really what it is.
She's picking up the drugs and queens for it.
I mean, this is some shady shit.
And it's for what would be like the top AI guy right now,
like the most important scientist in New York.
I mean, to be fair, she's wearing a lab coat and giving it to her.
I don't know how much access she actually has.
I still think that's too much.
Do you think it would be in the service of using a grad school's time,
grad school students time wisely
to give a fucking tour of a facility?
I wouldn't get a high school intern for this show.
Imagine if I had a fucking laboratory.
All right.
When you put it that way, now I completely do.
What does an intern do for this show?
Adam Cure a lab code.
First of all, mandatory wearing a lab coat.
Hi, welcome to We Hate Movies.
I don't know.
They could that take over some of the soch?
Soce beerfeiture.
Beerfatcher.
You could give a tour of the studio.
it would be like when they take a tour of the guy's office at the box factory on the Simpsons,
follow this yellow line.
It would take one and a half seconds.
Sure.
Definitely answer emails pretending to be us.
Boy, I would appreciate that.
You could ride the Wikipedia as we're talking about.
Oh, you got that wrong.
No, you got that wrong too.
Could moderate that Reddit, start deleting threads.
That'd be good.
Eric really wants an intern now.
Delete the world.
It would be fucking red, honestly.
But definitely mandatory wearing a lab.
code.
Of course.
You have to
I might start
wearing a lab
code.
And maybe be over
18 years old.
Yeah.
Well, that's the other
thing too.
You got to be at least
18 years old
to end of this
apartment.
That's all I'm saying.
Thanks anyway.
I don't need any
underage kids floating
around here.
I'm going to bump it up
to a 21.
Yeah, that's a
cool.
You know what?
There's alcohol.
There's a lack of pants.
I am wearing
Daisy Dukes right now.
And it's not a
criminal lack of pants.
No,
but it's there.
It's just a lack of pants
brought on by
General
lays. Someone walks in here. They could read
the situation wrong. That's exactly
right. So that's where we need. 21 years old.
To be fair to Gwen Stacy.
We're bumping it up.
I think 50's good because they know what's what.
I'm starting over. Yeah, Martin
Sheen's going to get this internship.
What did you say about Trump?
What'd you say about Trump?
It's Robert De Niro from the intern.
Oh, yes. My God.
Oh, that movie's awful.
But yes. Very good.
Um, so she's the head intern and, uh, so, uh, Reese fans, Reese, am I doing that right?
I think it's Reese, yeah.
Risa fans is the guy, is Kirk Connors, he shows up.
And his first lines is movie are amazing is just like, yes, I'm, he's like, I'm a scientist, but I'm not crippled.
And everyone's like, wait, nobody, hi, nobody said anything.
And then they're still reeling from how uncomfortable that is.
And he's like, and as you can tell, I'm also definitely a Southpaw.
Did anybody else hear the screams in this scene?
No.
it's Dylan Baker outside the office
and you stole my fucking job
I was thinking about that
Chris when I was watching it
I was like how fucking furious
what that man must have been
would it be that big of a deal
to have him in this movie
and just recast everyone else
like why not
how much more did fucking
Reese Effens cost you
it didn't take me that much
to figure out when Screech
was unsaved by the bell
the new class
Hey uh hey uh is this uh reese
yeah Dylan Baker
how's it going
yeah thanks uh you're starting
that amazing Spider-Man tomorrow huh great
That's amazing.
Congratulations.
I hope you get fucking diarrhea and die tomorrow, you piece of shit.
I am outside your house right now with a gun.
So you have kids, huh?
That's interesting that you have kids and a wife.
I bet they go outside every day and you don't know what could happen to them.
And you know what?
It's weird.
It's funny.
Thanks again for taking my call.
It's weird that your wife is wearing that red sweater right now.
I heard that that's kids plural, right?
What if it was just singular?
All righty. Well, I'll let you go.
I left you my real and happiness.
You know what I'm talking.
I mean, he must have been so fucking furious.
Three movies.
And I guess the deal, though, is some of the story here,
just from reading about what Ramey's Part 4 was going to be,
there's a little bit of that here, including he was going to finally fucking do it.
Yeah.
Well, because they spent like $100 million.
dollars in Spider-Man 4
which just never happened.
You know what I mean?
All the people got paid.
All the script got written.
Like, it's just nuts.
But it was such a, it was dumb.
I mean, I understand in the, in the heat of the moment,
but having like the Thomas Hayden Church Renaissance
being in Spider-Man 3.
It's tied to it now forever.
Like, why?
Like, that was Kirk Conner's spot.
God damn it.
Yep, you're totally right.
That's Kurt Conner's jacket.
Stacy, I'm fucking over.
I'm so pissed about that
because like the fourth one
would have had Malkovich's vulture.
I would have loved that.
All right, Sam, I'll do Spider-Man 3,
but you're promising me Spider-Man 4,
you promise on your wife's eyes, right, Sam?
It's not going to be that CGI garbage.
It's going to be Dylan in paint.
Well, jokes on him.
My wife is blind.
He ripped out her eyes for nothing.
it just feels so terrible
and also I like recent
e-fans fine enough
I think he's actually pretty good in this movie
he is good in this movie but I will say
I like Dylan Baker more
yeah sure and just because
he spent three years
waiting or three movies dealing with this
that he would have been fucking rocking it
in this movie he absolutely would have
so it's not him
he's a the famous
Dr. Kirkconnor says one arm
and the idea is he's going to become the lizard
because he hates not having an arm.
This is so stupid.
I don't know.
I mean,
you know,
he's,
it just,
he seems okay.
Like,
you don't mean?
You're a fucking scientist.
You've conquered life.
Don't get over it,
man.
Like,
listen,
where we're going,
none of us are having limbs.
Well,
also,
I mean,
and I don't know,
you know,
maybe it's not necessarily
his area of expertise in science,
but,
uh,
three words,
man.
how about robotics sure get a cool fucking android arm or that's the thing how about a hook well also that
but norman osborne is probably being like no no no you finish the thing that saves my life then you
get your precious arm so when you get your bionic arm right i'm a jig i'm sorry what is going on
with norman osborne in this movie he's like in cryostasis like Walt disney yes he's got some
debilitating disease that is the goblin disease i guess that you see in the second one i think i got
the goblin disease.
He does.
He just has like goblinitis
in that second one.
At the end of that movie he's like,
yes, my son.
Oh, right.
And wait,
Chris Cooper, man.
That's right.
He started crying when he saw that Nazi plate.
Which I wish,
I thought they had teased that in this one,
but it's not.
No, it's a really bad case
of we have no one to play this character yet
because when he walks into Oscar,
there's this massive screen in the lobby
and it's like Norman Osborne.
And it's like, it's literally a cartoon character in silhouette.
Yeah.
It's like, you need to figure that out.
Like, you listen, you're making a Spider-Man movie.
Odds are you're going to have at least one sequel.
See, that's the thing is they were thinking they were making a trilogy.
And they weren't.
Hey, is this Mark Webb?
Hey, it's Dylan Baker.
How's it going?
Awesome.
That's fantastic.
First of all, Mark Webb directed Spider-Man pretty funny.
Can I play on Roman Osborne by any chance?
You got anything, Peter's biology teacher?
Hello?
Son of a bitch.
I just don't get...
I'm going to have to kill his kids.
The new Spider-Man, the executive producer,
oh, so you hired Rob Zombie to voice
the amazing Spider-Man Kirk Goddors.
That's interesting.
That's really interesting.
That was in the MTV cartoon,
which, by the way,
is an animation damnation on Patreon.
That's right.
Would you like to know
which one of your cars doesn't have brakes?
It's just vapor lock.
So there's a, you know, there's a weird thing where Kirk Connors gets like super hard when Peter Parker can answer the science question correctly.
Because he's like, how do you think I'm going to grow my limb back?
Someone says stem cell research and he's like, oh, that's adorable.
No, try again, stupid fucking kid.
Excuse me, try something made up.
Also, we're not at our best right now because you're making us incredibly uncomfortable.
Because you're talking about like how uncomfortable you are.
with your own disability
and it's making
everyone very uncomfortable.
And so
Peter is like,
oh,
you would cross,
you know,
the genetics of some animals
or some shit.
And he's like,
oh my God,
that kid gets.
Um,
yeah,
you would like do the ninja turtle
thing where you like,
do like radiation with a thing.
Something,
something.
He's like,
there's a fish that can,
whatever.
You get to mutagen going around.
All right.
That's around.
So I believe Dr.
Connor's the answer
is you'll be using
the secret.
of the use.
Yes.
The,
and then he starts
flirting with Gwen Stacy
and these are the best parts
of the movie.
Flirting hard.
Well,
because the best part of this movie,
the best thing
this movie is going for it
was that Andrew.
Andrew Garfield and Emiston
were fucking at the time.
That's it.
That's the whole point of the movie
is that they were actually
fucking at the time.
God bless America.
They are making fuck eyes
which is something you can't pretend.
Oh, right.
And they have insane chemistry.
Like, it's not just the,
I mean, the fuck eyes are there.
Yeah, the fuck eyes are true.
They respond to each other very well in this.
Yeah, no, they're very good together.
Meanwhile, while they're flirting, this poor Rodrigo Greveri,
you see him down to the lobby getting hauled out by the NYPD.
That kid's future's over.
Yeah, that kid's like, oh, I guess I'll just go back to my shitty apartment.
That was my one chance to make it out of here.
He shouldn't have been the villain in the second movie.
Oh, shit.
They would have to play that one, like, two-second shot from this movie.
Hey, I could play Rodriguez-Gavera.
Just FYI, Dylan Baker here again for Mark Webb's assistant.
I mean, we hate movies as a 50-old intern.
Why can't OzCorp have a 50-old intern?
Yeah, Suzanne?
Suzanne, it's Dylan Baker again.
I mean, we're just been talking to each other so much on this phone that I feel like we know each other.
Is a janitor role still open?
Because I would even take that, honestly.
I saw Dylan Baker once at Barnes & Noble.
Oh, that's awesome.
On Valentine's Day.
Allegedly.
Buying chocolates.
It was a real, oh, fuck, situation?
I got some chocolates for you, baby.
Yep, bookstore chocolates.
Is he, like, married, or do you think there's a side piece?
I imagine he's married.
I think he's actually married to a woman.
I think they might be, like, New York theater people.
I think she's some sort of artist or something, too.
And it could have been something for somebody.
Although, I don't know.
Find chocolates for myself at a bookstore.
After those chocolates.
Valentine's Day to me.
It might have been curtains after those chocolates.
Hey, baby, you know, I got these chocolates for you.
Look, it has Warren Peace on the cover.
It looks, you know, it looks like a book.
It looks just like a book.
So you open this book, and it turns out there's chocolate.
It's a Walt Whitman sampling.
All right, that's actually pretty good.
Once every 10 years ago.
They're all good, dude.
They're just not all for you.
35-year-old interns, Steve Sadeach from the internet ticker says that he's married to Becky
Ann Baker. Oh, that's right.
That is right. And what's her current address?
Okay. Everyone got their pens out?
You're going to docks them.
So,
whatever, Peter sneaks off from the tour
after Gwen Stacy sexily threatens
that she's going to get him kicked out if he does so.
And then he goes into the spider reactor?
What is this fucking thing?
What are the odds, dude? You just accidentally
walk into the spider reactor. This thing is
fucking weird. He sees Iffron Khan
who's in this movie who's like the
he's just like
Norman Osborne's
like number one guy
kind of a thing
and again
one of the world's
greatest living actors
Irfan Khan is fucking awesome
and in this movie
he's like
yes you will do this
for Mr. Osborne
goodbye movie
Irfan kind of
ducks into the spider room
real quick
he puts in the pass code
he needs to get
something from the spider room
which is not a spider
who I didn't realize
it was occupied
forgot my keys
Occupied. It's just all these spiders.
Here's your keys. Look, nobody comes in here. This is the best place to get a work jerk in.
Oh, man. Yeah, classic. Amongst all these webs, no one will notice. It's just a human web.
He ducks it, ducks out. Peter goes in because he sees his code.
He's like, wow, I'll get all these spiders. Ouch! And it's like, great, dude.
I at least appreciate that I didn't have to see that cartoon spider chomping down.
It gets into his shirt collar
And then he's like, owie
And that's it
But then that night his neck starts
Coming webs
Like there's a web come
Right, it's more of a dribble
It's kind of great
Well he passes
He leaves
He's feeling all fucked up
From the spider
He passes out in the subway
In the most asshole way
When I see people like this on the subway
I'm just so furious
Lying down on the bench
You got your foot up
You're passed out
Wasted
Well, you've got ourselves a sick passenger here, guys.
We better stop the train.
Yeah, we better take 35 minutes out of people's day to deal with this fucking loser.
Got to get up the train.
I don't care what spider are you a bit by lady?
I got to get to work.
It's kind of great because it's at the middle of the day,
he's on the queue train going downtown, middle of the day.
And the only people on this subway car is this rowdy gang of drunks who are in their mid-30s.
And, like, there's, one guy is, like, putting beer on his head.
Yeah, I was like, what is this, Santa Con?
I mean, this is getting towards the end of the line.
We're near Coney Island at this point, so.
He's pulling his Steve Saneck, by the way.
He's falling asleep on the train and going in the wrong direction.
That hasn't happened in many, many years.
Well, thank God, dude, because we're almost 40 years old.
Oh, God, I wish.
Those were the days, though, man.
Oh, I, well, for us hearing it, for Steve, I imagine it wasn't the days.
Yeah, one time I.
This was 20 years ago?
This is 25 years ago.
It was like right out of college.
It was like 23 or 24.
I was going to the Bronx at the time.
I got on at Union Square going uptown at like 2 o'clock in the morning.
So this is like downtown Manhattan for those who don't know.
Going uptown.
Going all the way uptown.
It's like an hour trip.
It's a local train.
It's fucking 2 o'clock in the morning.
I fall asleep.
I wake up at 5 o'clock in the morning at Astor Place,
which is exactly one stop further downtown.
So I rode the train all the way up.
It stopped.
They cleared.
Probably the guy did the thing with the dust pan.
Went all up and down.
It dusted you.
I just, I love this so much.
I just love this story.
I just picture Steve sleeping on the train.
It's like actual time travel.
Like I literally just lost three hours and a block.
dude maybe you were like abducted by aliens or something oh that could have well I did have spider powers for a couple of weeks but they didn't take can I tell one that doesn't involve me but it involves Chris Cabin and I don't know if you remember this because of the state you were in it's a little tale that involves our friend Chris Cabin and friend of the show and friend in real life our good friend Justin J. Case been on the show multiple times the way JJ tells this story so he's getting up early to go for like a job interview or he's
got something where
he had to be at some place at like 8.30
in the morning. So he's
this is you guys were living in Brooklyn time you're living in
Williamsburg. So
JJ goes down into the subway
it's super early in the morning
he's fucking exhausted.
The train, the Manhattan bound train
so it's coming from deep in Brooklyn
the Manhattan bound L train
pulls into the station
and they're passed
out on the bench in the subway car
is Chris Cabin. So
Somewhere, you were riding back and forth all night between Manhattan and Brooklyn.
Yeah, that makes sense.
I don't remember that.
He's just like, all, goodbye, Chris.
Yeah, no, he didn't wake him up.
Yeah, that sounds right.
I love it.
I think we've all flown asleep on the train.
Oh, I used to do it all the time.
The problem is you're a little bit inebriated.
The train is very soothing.
You get a seat.
You just pass out.
Yep.
I'm listening to what I like to call nighttime music.
So that's not helping anybody.
I'm just getting swayed by the train passing out.
That's what they think.
that of my brother once
and he lost his jacket that way
he was wearing a leather jacket
woke up at Cornell and not wearing a leather jacket
dude that's what happens in Weekend of Bernie's too
but that's about to happen to Peter Parker
but he's got spider powers
and like he doesn't have to control him
this is when like he
he rips a lady's top off
for a minute. This is very weird because she's
like you spilled beer on me or something
because he knocks into someone else who then
I think spills whatever on her
and then to apologize
he starts patting a stranger
in New York
in Brooklyn on the subway on the shoulder
like tap tap tap tap it's going to be okay
I'm going to be not only am I trying to apologize
but I'm being patronizing on a piece of shit right now
and I'm touching you
don't be touching forbidden
NBT
NBT never be touching
never touch another person
ever
This is what you're talking about this is the Mr. Beaning
Yes because then his spider
comm is all over his hands and it's sticky
fuck so it rips her shirt off and everyone's like great this dude is sexually insulting this woman
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh no and then it's crazy like peter tries to like web that one dude and then
he gets a turkey stuck on his head he's so wild it's kind of like that because at one point
he grabs like the the the pole in the subway and he breaks it off and he's just like oh
terribly sorry and he's smacking everyone in the head with it oh i'm sorry your majesty it's
totally mr b when when does he ruin whistler's mother
in the sequel and he loses teddy bear um he winds up he winds up coming home at like four o'clock
at the morning and and may and uncle but sally field by the way has nothing to do in this movie
this might be a good time to explain why uh just really quick uh plugging sally field uh she's
in the movie forest gump oh the film forest gum right yes she was she was mother gumps mother she's
known as mother gump uh that is going to be our patreon exclusive episode this month
So if you want to check that out, go to patreon.com.
And we're also doing Lincoln later this.
We're not doing Lincoln, but Forrest Gump is happening.
Hold on to your hat, and it's okay to like a movie, and it's going to be fine.
It's also okay not to write an email.
Yep.
Now, Sally Field, yes, as Aunt May has nothing to do in this movie.
And this in from the internet ticker, the IMDB Tribune,
the greatest source for entertainment news and fun tidbits.
while a guest on the Howard Stern show in 2016 Sally Field was asked if she liked the amazing Spider-Man
and her answer was quote not especially it's not my kind of movie but my friend Laura Ziskin was the producer
and we knew it would be her last film and she was my producing partner and she was a spectacular human
Laura Ziskin died of cancer a few years ago when Stern asked her how much effort she put into
preparing for the Aunt May role
she said quote not a great deal
it's really hard to find a
three dimensional character in it and you work
it as much as you can but you can't put
10 pounds of shit in a five pound
bag
Sally Field rules
oh no no it makes sense she'd be that honest after riding the
Sibian
oh Stern didn't ask her to
ride the Sibian the Sibian
days of the Stern show are over
but Bert Reynolds asked her to do that
yeah for sure
that was his mustache's name
What kind of Sibby in your ride?
You want to sit on this fuck saddle?
I'm just so glad that she's at a point in her career.
And I mean, like, just where she's like, fuck it.
I mean, and she's also Sally Field.
Like, she got a little lose.
Because, like, so many people do, like, oh, you know, I played the Joe Chill and the Batman Begins movie.
Who kills Batman's parents?
I read all the comics.
I spent weeks ported.
Like, no, you fucking did not.
And if you did, jokes on you, buddy, because you didn't have to do that Mr. Chill.
Because it's a comic book, you got it, you're good.
Like, you don't even look, yeah, maybe you get the role of Batman.
You want to read about Batman.
I think you're pissing off a lot of people right now, Steve.
Sure, the dude who played Joe Chills was...
Also, though, I just appreciate...
I'm sorry for what I did.
I'm sorry I made funny you, Mr. Chill.
Now I'm using your voice.
The whole courtroom thing.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
If I could take back what I'd done, I would.
I'm sorry for what I did.
Her pearls, they were just everywhere.
Hey, Joe, Falconey.
says hi it's shot that man begins rules it does um no but the other thing that sally field
does not do here is the thing that you see a lot of uh people like actors who get involved in comic
book films i'm looking at you tommy lee jones this makes me think of him of like why did you
take this role and it's she could have been like well my grandchildren just love the spiderman
pictures so much it's like nope my friend was dying of cancer and i wanted to work with her that did
this piece of shit movie irf and con pulled that shit he did
I read that too.
He's like, I didn't want to do it.
I thought it was a stupid fucking character.
And it shows.
And it was like his three kids wanted him to do it.
This motherfucker have that same line for Jurassic World.
Thank you very much.
Was that character anymore?
This guy gets paid in duffel bags full of money.
He's fine.
Like, you know, his kids don't give his shit.
So he kind of has, and like he walks in.
He's got like spider munchies, I guess.
Dude, that's what's hilarious.
And they don't take it to the next.
level yeah because the gag is he comes in with the munchies and aunt may needs to be like oh peter
was there some of the devil's lettuce in there yeah you have some of that wacky tobacco any of that
like oh you know me and your uncle ben back in the 60s any kind of joke about weed because he's
clearly supposed to look like he's hot yes so i don't know if they like cut a line or something
he should be eating bugs he should be like i need bugs i need to go outshed he should come
Renfield for like 50 minutes
he wakes up the next morning
he still has the spider powers
and the whole gag here is like he keeps
grabbing and sticking to stuff he like
rubs his eyes I was like it'd be fucking cool
if he ripped his own eyelids off like
oh totally like you know what I'd be great
oh Frank Miller Spider Man
sounds good to me
now with 50% more
terrorist related racism
I really love the thing
where he's experiencing like he's got
super hearing and there's this
shot of he's got like this rack of old skateboards and there's a spider crawling across one and
they like he looks at this spider like all no pun intended bug eyed and then like they zoom in on
this like CGI spider just like walking across this skateboard and the spider I imagined was like
how's it going like that spider shouldn't talk hey welcome to the club yeah totally I didn't know
you like to get wet what do you mean you know PCP what did you give me
hi there Peter
Yeah, it's Dylan Bicker.
This is how I got into your movie.
Doing the voice of the spider.
I'm a voice in your spider friend here.
Oh, the rest of my spider roll got caught.
I was his sidekick.
Spitey.
So whatever.
Like, he goes to school.
He gets into it with Flash Thompson.
He beats the shit out of him, right?
Brutely getting into fight.
Oh, no.
Well, this is, does he beat him up right here?
No, he just humiliates him.
Oh, that's basketball.
Oh, that's basketball practice.
Flash Thompson throws a basketball at this girl who's making like a little
banner and knocks over to.
and knocks over like the paint can
and he
Peter grabs the basketball
and starts like palming it
with the spider grip and whatnot
this all ends in a good old
fashion 1993 shack attack
I couldn't believe I saw this in a movie
in 2012
it is exactly like almost 20 years too late
like it's like what are we talking about
I'm just glad nobody said it
oh man it would be great it was like blue chips
and Nick Nolte came out and recruited him
get over here god damn it do that again
did you take the money
did you take the money
Peter Park and you take the money
throw it all away
that's a movie we should probably do
I mean that movie kind of rules
but it also kind of sucks
it's kind of great
it's right online but I would do it
just for that just to say
that I had a reason to watch blue chips again
but for younger listeners
the shack attacking
is breaking the he's dunking
and he breaks the backboard
correct which was something
that was known for
so then like Martin Sheen gets
called and like this is the beginning of martin she and like dude just fucking take a chill pill
like he's like ah you you embarrass that kid in front of your whole all your whole class right
humiliated yeah and he's like yes i did like oh you feel like a big man now like well whatever
dude this guy beat the shit out of me two days ago and he's beating up little kids he's fucking
with girls trying to make banners but martin fucking sheen from the beginning was like like when
he came back and beat up by flash the first time he's like so how did you do with the other
guy. I'm like, you have been doing
this the whole time. No, but here's the difference
that happened, because this time the school called
him and he's pissed off because now
he's missing work. Yeah.
He had to switch shifts. Right.
It's a mysterious job. We don't know anything about.
But he had to switch shifts, and now he's working on the night shift,
which means he's fucking missing wheel.
Also, he's missing
wheel, but he also identifies
with Flash Thompson, and he's just
like, he sees himself
and Flash not. Oh, I see that.
You know, Peter, if I was, if I was
your age, I'd beat the shit out of you
too. Exactly.
He gave you a nuggie, huh?
That's pretty cool.
You know, I didn't like it when I saw you come home
with the black eye. I thought, you know, you should really beat that
a guy. But I just met this flash guy.
He is built like a
fireman. Have you ever seen this guy?
This guy is just handsome.
He looks like a deflated Jai Courtney.
I wanted to kiss him right on the
mouth. You know, me and
Flash Thompson got to talking outside
the principal's office, Peter, and he's a pretty cool
guy. We really hit it off.
You know, you made Junior
Varsity? You know, Peter, I
invited Flash Thompson to move into your
bedroom. You saw old
pictures of princes. He looks exactly
like an old prince.
Like someone who'd ruled over England.
While you look, I mean, you look. He's going to be
helping me out of the shop for a while,
whatever that is. So yes, you'll be seeing
a lot of them. So he's like, oh, by the way,
Peter, now that I got to switch, I had to
switch shifts, you have to walk
your aunt home from the, the, the, the,
subway stop or whatever.
Yeah, yeah, I'll do.
It's got to be there at 8.30 or something.
Take a fucking cab.
Take a, or just that whatever.
Well, they'll bankrupt them.
Good luck getting an exact time and when a subway is pulling in.
Yeah, you're right.
Because I think the line is like, you have to meter at the subway station at 9 p.m.
Yeah.
What is his Amtrak?
So, Spider-Man goes off to be, he's like, this is the cold play training sequence.
Well, because he's excited for two, it's a two-fold excitement montage here, Steve.
he's excited because he's testing out
these Spider-Man powers, but also
he's asked Gwen's
Stacy out to like hang.
Got it. So
like they do, they do little, not yet,
not hang a brain just yet. And unfortunately
before he can hang brain with her,
she's murdered.
Right? They don't, they don't
they've been fucking. They're fucking in that second movie. That second one
they're fucking. Oh really? They're slapping brains.
A hundred percent.
And what? Slapping brains.
Ask your mother
Is that what they do with Avatar?
Ask your Aunt May about slapping brains.
Ann May, what's slapping brains?
I wish your father was alive to tell you this.
Okay, slapping brains is
Stupid spy get himself murdered.
So he's like doing all sorts of fucking tricks and traps.
I will say just really quickly,
I regret my initial position on this movie
the first time I saw it,
but I will say one thing that stands,
I appreciate the fact that a good chunk,
not all,
but a good chunk of the spider-minning scenes in this movie
is wirework and not CGI.
Yeah, including right here.
Because that does stick out in a couple of those first,
even those rainy movies,
which I really do like,
but it does turn into a cartoon.
Like, every time he's about to swing off,
it's like Superman running behind the fucking phone booth
and coming out of cartoon.
Exactly.
It's very cartoony.
What I miss is that he's doing all this
at a construction,
like an abandoned
Some, sure, yeah, in the middle of nowhere.
And there's no guy saying,
Hey, you piece of shit, get out of my fucking chainsaw.
Excuse me, Chris, Cabin.
It is not the middle of nowhere,
because when you see the view of lower Manhattan,
you realize he's in like the Brooklyn Navy Yards.
There's no way you're fucking swinging webs in that place.
One thing I don't like is the addition of the skateboarding.
Yeah.
Skateboarding Spider-Man.
So now we've got the training with the skateboarding.
And what is it is usually going to be Tony Hawkman?
Well, you can play as Tony.
Spider-Man?
You could unlock, do you remember this, Steve?
I do.
You could unlock Spider-Man in Tony Hawk Pro Skater Dose, I think.
It might have been too soon.
So this was like an Easter egg for that?
Yeah.
I guess it was like a little gag.
Because you could unlock him and he could, you'd skate around to Spider-Man
and he could like sort of do some Spider-Man abilities.
Yeah.
It was kind of cool.
That game rules.
That game was part two specifically.
Yeah.
That's when it got good.
That's when a lot of people like me and Steve started wasting a lot of time.
that's when the plot started to flesh
out a little bit. Yeah, big time. They really
fleshed out a lot of the bios for those
skaters. Unlocked Zephyroth. Yeah, and they
killed off Tony Hawk's entire
family after the first one.
I'm sorry for what
I did to Mr. Hawk.
I'm sorry, Mr. Hawk for what I did.
I can't take it back.
I love Joe Chill in that movie.
He winds up
going back home a little late,
a little late. Aunt May had to
walk. And she's totally
fine with it. And he said, hey,
you go in there and be a man
and apologize to your end.
And this is, it's so uncomfortable.
She got ravaged by savages on the way home.
Marauders
came by on their motor
vehicles.
It's mad max.
You know, the great
humongous grabter.
What the fuck's going to happen? You know, who
would have brought my darling May home?
Is that nice flashed
Thompson? You piece of shit.
next time Aunt May needs
a walk from the subway station
I know who I'm calling
Dial F for Flash
Who the fuck is his old man called me
It's going to walk his wife home
Look dude I'm not
Hey Mr. Parker
Thanks again for calling
I'm not gonna fuck your wife while you watch
So I don't know what you're trying to start here
It's just not gonna
What if you fuck me
While I watch
Fuck me in front of a mirror
We should also mention, though, that on top of the web-slinging practice making him late,
he goes to Kirk Conner's office afterwards, do some science experiments.
Oh, right.
And this is where, like, Peter Parker is like, oh, this thing that you haven't been able to figure out in fucking 16 years,
beep-bo-pop, now it's done.
Now that rat grew an arm.
Because he had, like, his dad's formula that was missing.
This is like Goodwell hunting.
Yes.
It's big time.
I don't like it.
No, not at all.
And so you see here also, Ben is calling him over and over there.
But also it's very important.
This is where we're introduced to.
It is called the Denali device.
Oh.
Which is a thing that Kurt Connors has invented that will go up and spray something into the atmosphere.
And he says, like, you could kill a village malaria outbreak with this device.
But people are scared that it could fall into the wrong hands.
And you're just sitting there like,
Telegraph it further.
You're going to use this in your evil plot at the end of the movie?
Spell it out some more.
Wow, that guy had a lot of interesting information.
Who would think that a security guard?
Driving back through Chicago on Friday.
Yeah, there's the room with all,
this is the OzCorp room with all this stuff we don't use anymore.
There's Mysterio's a whole suit there.
There's the Venom symbiote over there.
Yeah, you know.
The goblin glider back there.
Yeah, it's a real house, a high.
in here. We don't keep it locked enough.
The vulture wings, I mean, we got like halfway
through them and then we didn't do the other
half. So
he goes back, like, apologize to your aunt
and he goes like, also, clearly
like, because this kid got beat up,
he's like, like, asking a lot of
questions about his parents, like, ease up
Uncle Ben. Like, you know what I mean?
Throttle it back, dude, you might be shot in the gut
in a few hours.
Grounding the kid and call it a day.
But he's like, pushing it. You got to apologize.
I don't like who you're becoming.
The kid storms off.
It's really awful, and here's the thing.
You've got Andrew Garfield, Martin Sheen, and Sallyfield, three people, including Andrew Garfield, that I think are really good actors.
They're very strong.
And when you have scenes like this in this movie, like, because what happens is, like, Aunt May is like, no, Ben, he doesn't have to apologize.
And it's like this whole domestic thing.
And it, I got total douche chills right here because it reminded me of like, you ever over at a friend's house and their parents argue in front of you?
And you just want to go home immediately?
Or you ever go to your own house and your parents are arguing with you?
That I was used to, but it was a very specific kind of awkward when it was like, like, I remember
one time I was sleeping over at a friend's house and we were driving home from dinner and like
this kid's dad like totally almost hit this jogger who was running at night.
It was like really scary.
And then it got into this whole thing because the wife was like, you didn't see that guy.
And he's like, yes, I did.
God damn it, you scream for nothing.
And, like, the hallway home.
Yeah.
Like, we're sitting in, like, just a few feet away in the television room, like, watching
Sports Center.
And it's just, like, up in the back, two people may or may not be getting divorced
over this.
It was so, but I got that same thing.
Oh, God, their parents are fighting.
I remember there was a fight between two parents, and they were, like, going to the
movies or something.
And they were arguing over the price of a movie ticket.
Oh, what?
They were like, no, it's this much nowadays.
No, no, no, no, that's just wait until we get to the box office.
I interrupt.
Oh, no.
I was like, yeah, I was just like, oh, you know, I was at the, uh, I was at the movies the other
day.
It's like, it's $8 for the ticket.
And then they both look at me, silence, turn back to each other and start fighting
it like I never sat on it.
I don't know what that kid was talking about.
Oh, my God.
But you were correct, though?
Of course.
I was correct.
Come on.
So he storms out.
I also think of this scene and some of the other stuff,
like, Andrew Garfield could do less.
Like, he's doing a lot, and it's like not this movie kind of a thing.
It's like, hey, man, please remember you're in a comic book movie right now?
Exactly.
You're in the fucking fourth Spider-Man movie.
I know we're not putting the four on there.
You're in the fourth Spider-Man movie.
So, yeah, he storms off, and he's not wrestling.
So this is, like, the difference.
This is what you bought your ticket for to see how Uncle Ben is going to get fucking final destination.
I just can't believe, though,
there is nothing addressed when he
fucking slams that door and the spider strength
shatters the glass. No one
says a word. If that was my
father, you, now you
get back here. My dad's voice
would lower like eight octaves.
Now you get back.
Go in your room or die.
That's when he puts on his Darth Vader mask.
Absolutely. Only for the really serious one.
He only took that out on special occasions.
And he starts, Uncle Ben starts following
him. Peter goes to a bodega.
He wants to get a chocolate milk.
She, what are you doing, you stupid baby?
Get a soda.
I just yelled at my sort of parents, and now I want a chocolate milk.
Is he George McFly?
Series, Lou, milk, chocolate.
And he's two cents short, and the guy's giving him a bunch of shit.
And he's like, here, I'll take the two pennies.
And he's like, oh, we've got a store policy where you can't take a penny unless you spend $10.
Fuck you, buddy.
It's a New York City bodega.
That shit is the Wild West.
You'll take as many pennies as he pleases.
I guess that was just his two cents.
So he, like, he struck.
Oh, Eric.
Oh, Eric, no.
Chris Kevin's quiet, disgust over that terrible joke.
I think he'll just bear, actually.
He likes it.
He likes it, though.
He won't say it, but he likes it.
He's like, he started to leave the bodega.
He's like, oh, whatever, man.
He starts leaving.
Some guy holds him up.
You know what I mean?
Like, this is a classic cash grab, though.
I was actually pretty pleased with the, like, the forward,
the fast thinking.
of this dude because he like pretends
well he like purposely shoves a bunch
of shit off the counter and when the dude
bends down to pick it up he grabs the
cash out of the drawer and then he's a
pretty cool guy and then he throws
a chocolate milk to Peter and he's
like hey man thanks you know what I mean like we're all in this
together we're just all people man
take a penny leave a penny Robin Hood
shows up
this guy's great
he's kind of great and he leaves
and like the guy is like
hey stop that guy
stop that guy
kid you gotta help me
stop me stop it's like no I'm not gonna
I'm not gonna charge an armed assailant
exactly like I never understand
I never understand in the wrestling
scenario I don't understand to hear
why fucking children have to go off
into the street become vigilantes
all of a sudden it makes no sense for two
reasons one yeah don't
like yell at this kid to help
you but also listen
bodegas get robbed all the time in New York City
you know what that bodega proprietor
is not doing running out into the middle
the street chasing the guy.
Because he doesn't get shot in the head.
You leave these people alone.
Yep.
And that's what fucking Uncle Ben needs to learn.
Oh, this guy's a fucking asshole in this entire scenario.
What a piece of shit.
Uncle Ben?
Yeah.
The way it works is the guy is kind of running off.
He's got a gun and he trips and the gun falls out of his hands right in front of Uncle Ben.
And Uncle Ben's like, well, I'm going to wrestle this guy for this gun.
And it's like, why?
First of all, why?
You're walking down the street.
Sure, you might think you just committed.
a crime. But who cares?
He stole $71.
Yeah, totally. Yeah, he stole like a candy bar and this dude's going to fucking risk
life over it. Not worth it, friends. And that this poor awesome
criminal guy, now he has to kill Uncle Ben. He didn't want to do that
when he woke up this morning. No. He knows the old fuck getting involved. He didn't
want to do that at all. This guy is in fact, maybe
the hero of the film.
So, yeah, Uncle Ben's shot in the gut. He goes down.
I think it's because Uncle Ben,
like did a weird move grabbing this gun.
I don't even think this dude meant to like pull the trigger.
Also though, like don't try to do suicide by by burglar.
I think so.
He's just like,
I don't want to deal with walking Sally Field home another night.
He's pissed off that he missed the wheel, dude.
It's suicide by surprise.
I think he did mean to kill himself.
I mean,
he's looking for trouble every night.
He's just walking the streets.
I mean,
I did find it pretty moving when like Andrew Garfield like kneels over.
and Martin Sheen saying all things like,
you know, make sure it flashes at my funeral.
It's really important.
Make sure he's in a really nice suit.
I want him to be my pallbearer.
My only Paul bearer.
I want to be held in those tree trunk arms once in my life.
Flash Thompson will give my eulogy.
May's going to fight for it, but make sure it's flat.
Flash.
I've left Flash the house.
You will pay rent to hear.
In catch.
So he eats shit, thankfully without saying a word.
No, yeah.
That wasn't too bad.
He also at some point kind of does great power with great power.
With great power comes great responsibility, but he kind of like garbles the words a little bit.
So we're like, do it.
This ain't your mama, Spider-Man.
And it's in a voicemail that we have to hear.
Oh, right.
No less than three times in this movie.
So he's dead.
And Andrew Garfield's very upset.
And you know what?
And so he's like, I'm going to become a vigilante.
Right.
And I'm going to find who killed.
to Uncle Ben. The guy who killed him, by the way, looks like
fucking Chad Kroger from
Nickelback. He does. He does. He does. He does.
He has long blonde hair. And apparently... If it's
Chad Kroger, use that
shampoo that straightens your hair out,
get rid of those fucking weird poodle
curls that that guy has. And Spider-Man
picks up the rest of the members of
Nickelback in this fucking
montage of him trying to find this
motherfucker. Eric, you would have been picked up by Spider-Man.
He's looking for fucking tall blonde guys.
You would go right down. You can fucking take
me, man. Throw your, fling your
web is on me. And the move is
I guess he gets a detail from the
cop at the scene. This guy's got
a little tattoo of a star on his left
wrist. So with every guy that
Peter Parker shoves up against a wall like
a school principal, he's checking
to see if he could have not been a tattoo. He
could have just gone to a nightclub the night
before. That was his re-entry
pass. I didn't wash my hands so I'd get back into
the reggae lounge. Isn't like a
tattoo of a star? Maybe it's a moon is
how in Taken, they identify
Mako from Tripoya.
Oh, does you just have any tattoos you can see?
Correct any distinctive markings.
So he's going around hunting like in a Ramon's shirt,
trying to find this dude.
He accidentally falls through,
and now we get the sort of wrestling nod.
And, you know, I couldn't believe it.
Like, you want to talk about a movie
legitimately representing New York fucking city.
Here we go.
Finally, someone, a film having the guts to represent
the large amount of abandoned fucking,
luchador rassling arenas that are just hidden
throughout the city. Absolutely.
He falls through the roof of this building
into this abandoned luchador ring
and it's like this, it's 2012 New York
City, this would not be left like this.
That's a fucking condo that no one can afford right now.
Or a wedding venue or something.
Yeah, exactly.
The Grand Prospect Hall, where your dreams come true.
I love that commercial.
It's a good commercial.
And whatever.
so he realized he should have a mask
so he designs a Spider-Man mask
and this just leads into a montage
like a gadget montage
which he does that first Ramey movie
have a gadget montage?
Well no because he doesn't have any gadgets
Oh right he's got the weird fucking wrist vaginas
Yeah isn't that what they have here
Is he actually make but he's coming out of his neck though
That's just a weird like it's the remnants from the bite or whatever
No dude he's fucking cumming shit out of his body
That's I mean not so he makes a thing that that takes all of his neck
come into his
I mean, no, I think it's just
it's a thing where he makes synthetic
webs.
Yeah, we see him testing that out at one point.
He gets them from OzCorp
somehow because he's like reading about
it on their website.
Yeah, and there's also a lot of
him like watching YouTube videos
in this part of the, I don't know what's going on here.
Again, two hours and 16 minutes
man. It's way too much.
You don't need it. I know what Spider-Man does.
So at night he's going around
and he's beating these people up because he's heroic, right?
You know what's actually pretty heroic is watching a movie with your newly widowed elderly aunt that raised you like a son.
You know what I mean?
Like maybe spend some time with that lady for even a minute.
What movie?
You know, whatever she likes, ladies' choice.
Steel magnolias, forest gum, snuff.
I was naming films that Sally Field.
Soap Dish, possibly.
Soap dish sounds like a good one.
Do you think Sally Field killed that girl?
I think so.
I think she was the knifeman in that.
that 8mm movie.
And Sallie!
Machine!
Yeah, here I come.
Oh, Nicholas, Kate, you don't know what you've gotten into.
Sorry, I'm late.
Machine is here.
We can roll.
Roll them, boys.
And Sally Field as Machine.
Oh, awesome.
You like me.
You really like me.
Now I'm going to cut your throat.
Yeah.
No, I didn't put any effort into amazing.
Spider-Man, but in 8-millimeter, I was
going for the fences.
I gained 50 pounds.
Of pure
muscle.
So he's jacked Sally Field.
Just imagine it. Oh, that's terrifying.
I pinched past a Buick.
Could you not? That's my
fetish. So
he has this one run in where he's
got this one suspect who he
thinks is this guy, and he webs him
to a wall, and then like this cop
on a motorcycle shows up.
And Spider-Man's giving this officer guff.
Sure.
And then like the rest of the, rest of the, like,
it feels like almost the rest of the police force show up right here.
A lot of cop cars swarm this thing.
Peter Parker has, like, a little bit of a hard time getting out of here.
And there's a YouTube video at this point, possibly?
Yeah, it's like now, like, word is getting around New York City.
There's a vigilante, blah, blah, blah.
Is this where you see Dennis Leary gives a press conference at one point?
Welcome to the movie fucking, like, fourth-billed Dennis Leary.
It's very weird.
53 minutes.
George Stacey.
This movie is so tedious.
I cannot believe it.
Well, when he escapes the cops
right here, though,
there's another...
I don't remember what it...
Oh, I was complaining about it
on our Forrest Gump episode,
and it fucking happens here, too.
He makes another obnoxious
Midnight Cowboy reference.
Because he's trying to swing away,
and the cops like kind of get him,
and he gets, like, fucked up,
and he sort of like bumps into a couple
of cabs or something,
and he does the old
I'm swinging here
I'm swinging here
and dude my eyes
rolled back so far
I fell over
let him do the rest of the shit
Rizzo does in that movie
have him go to Andy Warhol's
fucking you know party
let him do all that shit
and then you can say this
it's not doing it
I'm swinging here
I'm swinging here
yeah please someone
reference another scene
from that movie maybe
like watch that movie
or don't
or watch any other New York movie
yeah
You know, like have Spider-Man say, sometimes I wash off the blood, sometimes I wash off the come.
Or, you know, he's in an establishment and people won't leave.
And he goes, now you just can't leave.
You know what?
These are New York movies.
Taking a Palmon, one, two, three.
Where's my hot dog sandwich?
Have, that's what it is, cabin.
Have Spider-Man yell lick my bunghole motherfucker.
Yeah, there you go.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Do spiders have bungholes?
Yeah, so they have to.
They got that big butt, right?
he should grow a big butt
Oh my god
That'd be amazing
A big spider's ass
Yeah
I'm into that idea
He's just a plump ass
It would flesh him out
Well plump
He's so
Yeah
By the way nice with plump
But he's so scrawny this guy
He needs a plump butt
It's like in that scene
In the first one
Like where he's muscular
And all the girls like
Whoa what happened to Peter
It's like well Peter's ass got juicy
What happened there?
Look that fucking juicy
Goboosy
fucking huge bite out of that shit.
Good Lord. Right?
Like they're working it into their sex now.
That's a perfect peach.
Peter Parker.
Peter Snacker.
You can smash a can with that ass.
So he gets an invite to dinner at the Stacey residence.
Sure.
And this is a weird thing because, and Steve, I don't know,
and I know you're not a super Spider-Man guy.
We all know you're more of a D.C. guy.
is it ever told what Mrs. Stacey does for a living?
No, because Mr. Stacey is just a police captain,
which is a prestigious role, a profession to have, right?
But they have a gorgeous apartment on some part of Central Park.
It's nuts.
What are we fucking doing?
And they go to the same school?
I guess, I don't know.
I think it's a magnet kind of school where in like...
Because it's like Midtown science.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it's like a specific high school that you could test into.
But yeah, so she's like, you know, a rich cop's daughter.
Right, which is obviously means he's on the take.
He's got to be.
Yeah.
Or he's pins get, oh, yeah.
Oh, that would be great.
Dennis Leary.
Bring me a captain George Stacy.
That would be great though, dude.
If he just had like a one off line where he was, Dennis Leary's like, all right, you know what?
I got to leave dinner early.
I got to go take a meeting down in hell's kitchen.
Yeah.
Kitchen
Hell's kitchen
Good
Don't know for you
He's so good in that
But it's so funny
So yeah
They're all eating their own
Branzino
They got
Rich boy over here
Lord
Anybody notice the one kid
The oldest son right here
No
He was in that
Horrible
Vacation reboot slash sequel
And now he's the dude
In Booksmart
Funny fucking kid
I will say he's grown up to be a very funny comedic actor
I think he's on the Santa Clarita diet
He is yes, yes
Oh I was on the Santa Clarita diet
Oh so was I didn't take
How did we not know?
Did not take
Oh you were out
Damn it
I was making a joke about cameos
You were making a joke about being on a literal diet
Fuck that whole thing just crashed as
Didn't work because you got a plump ass
You got a little bit of a thick bottom
I'm not afraid of it
It's like a fucking spider ass over here
Well, Steve Pipp had been inactive a spider or what?
Can we get that to do we have enough pull to let's replace the word booty and stuff like that.
It's so tired.
Yeah.
Are people still saying booty?
I think so.
Dude, yeah, dude.
It's not trending or anything.
You're trying to get web ass trending.
No, like, do spidey instead of booty.
Like, they got a spidey ass.
Oh, all right.
Well, is it just spitey or is it spidey ass?
It's, I would choose your own adventure.
I think he's got a good spidey kind of works.
Yeah, yeah, that's almost.
That dude's got a good spidey.
People aren't just going around saying booty ass.
Maybe I am.
So we have the...
Right around here, the dinner gets interrupted
because it's the first reveal of the lizard.
Yes.
Who's attacking a bunch of cars on the Williamsburg Bridge.
While this dinner is happening,
it's cross-cutting between, like,
Kirk Connors injects himself with a serum.
Because Erf and Khan is like,
you have to immediately go into trials,
and he says no.
And Erfant Khan's like, all right, that's cool.
I'm going to take some of this fucking serum
down to the VA and give it to a couple
of those guys. He's going to say, I'm going to
just tell them that it's a fucking flu shot.
I'm going to infect a ton of people with this
experimental drug. With monster medicine,
what are you talking about? It's a
commentary on how we treat
veterans in the United States right now. I totally
agree, but you need to bring these veterans
to a secondary location. So if they
turn into monsters, it's like
not coming back to you. We call those
staging areas. It needs to be a place that
looks like the VA, right? You give them some
sleeping serum. You take them out of the real hospital,
put him into the staging area.
They wake up like Captain America.
This sounds like a Mission Impossible thing you've got going on there.
Orphan Khan's wearing a fake mask.
Absolutely.
I don't know about Bebop,
but I think Rocksteady might have served.
Yeah.
Rock steady.
Rock steady served our country.
Yeah.
Thank you for your service, Rocksteady.
He's also.
Bebop was shooting up junk downtown.
He mutates into a monster just like Kurt Connors does.
The Lizardman.
And what's great about this is when he gets.
It's his fucking, the lizard man
hand is like a, it's coming out
and it's like looks human at first for a little while
before I guess he changes.
And it's all slimy and weird.
And you just know he's fucking pulling pud with that.
Oh, absolutely.
Dude, it's like a, it's like the stranger.
It's the strangest stranger.
It's already pre-loved.
Yeah, you don't have to think about that.
It's all loopy and he's just,
he's just fucking going to town.
You get a real science fiction jerk going?
Yeah, because it's like he hasn't jerked off
with his left hand or his right hand
since God knows.
win. When did he lose his...
We never know the circle of Vietnam.
I do not believe it. No, he was on vacation
in Vietnam. It was a boating accident.
He was fighting Rambo who came back
to free all those veterans that were trapped
there. Rambo cut his hand off.
Oh, go ahead. I was just going to say,
while this dinner party
is broken up, Gwen Stacy
and Peter Parker on the roof of this
magnificent fucking Central Park West
Department. Yeah. And they're
making out hard. Yeah. Super
sexy. Sure, dude. Right.
Good kiss him.
Mrs. Stacy interrupts the fucking
tongue kissing.
What?
He's about to take a spidey out.
Yeah, so he's going to take his ass out.
I'm about to present to her his bottom.
About the flat brains over here.
It's in this scene.
When this is over, not now.
I certainly don't want to know now.
Explain to me with slapping brains.
I really want to figure it.
I'll give him the rest of the episode to make up in the answer.
Also, explain to me what you think sex is.
I can tell you right now.
You got two.
Okay, so you got your, you got a spidey in your brain.
If you got men's genitalia is kind of nasty
And then the ladies is no prize either
And then they smash them, they flap them together
Uh-huh
You know what I mean?
And then maybe sometimes you do some spidey stuff
And then in the end a baby hat
We are going to remake back to school with Eric Siska
And have him go back and learn biology again
Back to the family life program in the sixth grade
I know biology dude
anyway, they're making out hard.
And then Mrs. Stacey's like, hey, oh, this is uncomfortable.
It's here that he has revealed to her that he is indeed Spider-Man.
And so they're making out or whatever.
And then he jumps off the roof to, like, go to the Williamsburg Bridge.
And she's in the door.
And this is the greatest Emma Stone line of the movie.
And her delivery is, I think she's very funny.
Yeah.
And she has a great delivery of this.
She just goes like, oh, I'm in trouble.
Yeah, like it's, it's, it's the only legitimate laugh I got in this movie of any of the things she's supposed to be laughing. She's really great. She's really great. Um, so yeah, the lizard is on the bridge. He's going after Erf and Khan. Yeah. Because somewhere in his brain still is like, please don't harm those veterans. But I also think he wants to kill him anyway. Well, of course there's bloodlust. Also, Erf and Khan said he was going to get Dylan Baker in here to do it anyway. He's ready to get rid of him. Hey, Mark Webb. Uh, yeah, Dylan Baker again, buddy. Just calling. Uh, got my hands on a. I got my hands on a.
copy of the script here. It turns out there's a scene
where Erf and Khan's going to be
sitting in a car. If he's in the backseat
someone's got to be driving.
Call me back.
Oh God. Mark, did you really
cast C. Thomas Howell?
And you didn't? Call me.
That's fucking great. Yeah, that's going to burn his ass
dude. Yeah, so whatever. It's this
big lizard. It's almost a lizard
fight. You kind of start to see. The lizard
looks like a goomba
from the Mario Brothers. 100%.
Why does he have this round bald head?
I don't get it.
You got to give him spikes, right?
One thing I do like is that he, like, can crawl on the ceiling and stuff.
Yeah.
No, it's all fine except for the fact that he looks like a goomba.
Yeah, I mean, he should be dancing in an elevator.
Give him, like, a fin or something sharp.
Yeah, a fin would be fun.
A nice dorsal fin.
Or a horn?
How about a nice horn?
He's fucking horny as shit, dude.
Sure.
I know they want to make...
I know they want to make it their own thing here, but really just make him look like he looks like in the fucking comment.
That was like an interesting look.
Get me purple pants.
Purple pants.
Purple pants.
He's fucking horny when he sees that spidey come out.
It happens a couple times.
He has like the lab coat on, but it gets torn off.
And I'm like, that's not doing it for him.
He's a hulked out lab coat.
And I'm sorry, that thing would not be hanging on like that.
No, it should, he should just be a big lab coat that he's in.
And it's fun.
Yep.
So he just like also buys a big lab coat from when he's a lizard.
Yeah.
He takes off his regular lab coat, injects himself, and then puts the, the bigger lab coat.
code on.
Walt Lizard.
So he's like a lizard,
but he's like modest.
Yeah.
He's a professional.
It's been as a doctorate.
So there's a big fight on the bridge.
He's like hucking cars off this bridge
and Spider-Man's like hanging him up with the web.
He sort of like fights.
We get a little bit of a fight here
and then the lizard sort of runs off.
Erf and Khan is fine.
Yeah, but also not in the rest of the movie.
Exactly.
Is he dead?
Is he not?
I guess he's fine.
Yeah.
I guess save it for the sequel.
That mysterious sequel.
cut him out because he was supposed to be goblin
and like he was supposed to get his arm ripped
off or something. No, what are you saying?
There was, there was, it's on the IMDB
Tribune. There was something where like there were scenes
of him like where he had to like
pretend like he didn't have an arm essentially.
Oh, man. And it was something,
like he was going to be proto-goblin was the idea
but then they... A proto-goblin.
Is that canon? Yeah, I think
that's probably, there's probably a proto-goblin. There's always
a proto-goblin. I think they just went with a lizard
because they're like, fuck it, you know. Well, finally
somebody had the good grace of like, you know,
Maybe we've seen enough of the Green Goblin.
Maybe. Just maybe.
Just maybe. That's not the best character that ever existed.
And it doesn't need to be in every movie.
So, yeah, then it's just there's a little kid stuck in a car, kind of like most of the Jurassic Park movies.
Yeah.
And see Thomas Howell, of all people, is the father screaming after this kid.
Pony boy himself.
Spider-Man gets down there because this motherfucker ain't staying gold up there.
Man, he's a coward.
He's not saving his own son.
And he takes his mask off, gives it to the kid.
Like, it's like this thing.
It's like, beautiful scene.
He's like, you have the Spider-Man power now.
You climb to me.
Yep.
No, him to me.
And this is for like the end of the movie.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
If you're taking this mask off in public, that's the end of the movie, buddy.
This is like, we're almost like 90 minutes into this movie.
And I thought I was like, oh, well, it's wrapping up.
Pause it.
Fucking like hour left.
Yeah.
Outrageous.
Because again, the first, we're in the second of the two movies.
Because the first movie with the origin story, now it's the lizard show.
Yep.
So he does save this kid from this flaming wreckage.
And like, Steve Thomas, I was like, oh, man, my son, I owe you one, Spider-Man.
Maybe I'm going to stop this movie dead later.
I'm going to see you later.
Hey, Spider-Man, anytime you need me to pump the brakes on this story, you just give a holler.
But it's a real to really eat shit for like three minutes.
This is my beeper number.
You beat me.
You beat me.
um yeah and he's doing like a he's like my son my son and like spider man's like bumming out
about that clearly um so that's like that whole thing there's also around here when things start
lizarding out you notice this it's a fucking dc universe es guitar score oh yeah man it's it's not as
prevalent as like dana but it's it's there someone's rocking out on this score it's not as
the elector, oh, Spider-Man, what you do to me.
Oh, Jesus.
Yeah, so never mind. I retracted the complaint.
What the hell is that from?
That's from Amazing Spider-Man, too.
Oh, right, previous episode.
It's like, he's talking through his own score.
Oh, that's stupid.
It's really bad.
So, I guess around now, Dennis Leary's like, we're going to ban Spider-Man.
I want Spider-Man.
There's a warrant out for his arrest, yeah.
Dennis Ler has my favorite line in this
And it's just his throwaway thing
Where he's on the phone
He's like, well tell the mayor
No, there isn't a dinosaur roaming New York City
And I'm like, man, I would love to make that phone call
Mayor, actually there is a dinosaur
He's around the Sephora at Columbus Circle
And then Peter Parker comes to him and says like, yo, this is like
Kurt Connors, he's like, Kurt Connors,
the man that wrote my daughter's
college admission
letter letter
you think I'm the mayor
of Tokyo
which he says
yeah I think that's a little Dennis
Larry special
like I'll just punch up this script
here what does that mean though
I think it's like a Godzilla reference
yeah
because it's like oh you're saying a radioactive
guy turned into a
wizard and he double taps it
he says he says it twice
he says that and then he's like
a good script
here, let me just punch it up here, get a leery.
Right?
Let me tell you what Spider-Man.
The Denizens of Tokyo.
Yes, he's like, well, go save the denizens of Tokyo.
Let me tell you what, Spider-Man, okay?
Spider-Man will crawl on all the walls.
Oh, man, the fucking Dennis Leary shit.
Wait, wait, let me see what Bill wrote about this.
Let me get my Bill Hicks notes.
I was obsessed with No Cure for Cancer.
I must have seen No Cure for Cancer 30 times.
And lock and load.
Lock and load. I think I was...
You were, you were an asshole.
Oli, oh, leo, leo, oh, leo.
Absolutely, dude.
And I'm still like kind of a leery head.
I like him when he pops up and stuff sometimes.
I'm not watching fucking goddamn Animal Kingdom.
Absolutely not.
Which I find out hasn't been canceled each and every NBA finals.
So Animal Kingdom is like an American television.
adaptation of the Australian
film. You got some spidey ass in that
shit? Nope. It's TNT. You got some
what's her face is in it. Ellen Barkin.
You got some Ellen Barkin' ass in that movie.
Oh, really? The movie is what got by
Mendelssohn's a lot of attention.
Yes, Melissa Leia. No, no, no. What's her name?
No, Jackie. Earl
Haley. Haley.
Jackie O'Halee in a dress. No,
Jackie Harve. That'd be amazing, though. That would actually be
pretty great. I'm going to look it up.
Jackie Kennedy
O'NASIS.
No.
She's also Australian.
Yes.
She was in...
Jackie Hugo Weaving.
It might be, no.
She was in...
Weaver.
It's Jackie Weaver.
Yes, it is.
Thank you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She was the mom in the Steve McQueen movie.
She was the mom.
She played the mom in Steve McQueen's widows.
Elizabeth DePickey's mom in widows.
Right, right, right.
Fantastic.
So, Stephen, when I was...
and widows. Oh, no, I wasn't. No, he's
Stephen. That's David. Oh, David. But he's talking to the mirror.
Dude,
Tobo acting in a scene
with Tobo? I would love it. Sign me up.
Dude, three hour cut. Like a Stephen Tobolowski clone
movie? It is not me. It is my
clone. He's in my
house. Eat my birthday cake. Shoot him. He's the one.
Can you imagine?
I would love it.
Hey, Steve, Steve Tobolowski.
Nice to say to Dylan Baker.
Hi, yeah.
You're making a clone movie.
Sounds like you could use a one-armed scientist in that club.
You know, if I shave my head a bit, I look like you...
Yeah, heard you need a clone.
He was the main...
Yeah, hi, it's me.
Hi, I'm Stephen Tobolowski.
I can do that better.
I'm a Stephen a Tobolowski.
Right?
And that's it, right?
All right, I'll go.
Dylan, could you get up?
out of the office, please.
Oh, Dylan, you are fantastic.
So there's a bunch
of fucking, like, sewer shit. The lizard's
got his hideout down there. There's a whole other fucking
lab. Spider-Man sets a trap
to, like, photograph him for some reason.
It's weird that we're getting photography here because
Jay Jonah Jameson does not exist in this
world. The whole journalism thing seems
pretty much dropped. It's just like he's kind
of a shutterbug, we're told at the beginning
of the movie, but like, why is he getting photographic
evidence to prove to Dennis Leary, I guess?
To jerk off over it. Oh, some
spank material for later. Yeah. Well, it's kind of funny
that both these movies kind of split the difference
because the Peter Parker thing
kind of doesn't make sense. Like, yeah, I'm, as
the comic book character, is like, yeah, I'm a
genius level scientist that
can make all sorts
of amazing webs and all sorts of shit. I can invent my own technology.
But I prefer to be an
marginally employed photographer
for a man that hates my guts.
Hey, man, do what you love.
So the, you know, the, the, the
Ramey movies, like, we'll take the photographer thing.
Oh, cool, we'll just take the scientist thing.
And neither the twain shall meet.
Yeah, you're totally, that's right.
I never really thought about that.
But, yes, in those Ramey movies, like, he's very smart.
Yeah.
But he's not a scientist.
No, and he's not as smart as he is in this movie specifically.
Yeah, you're totally right.
This is just setting up the camera so that he could, like, say,
choke me, daddy to the lizard when he goes off.
But so the lizard finds the camera after a little sewer, you know,
fight here.
And on the back with this fucking label maker,
property of Peter Parker.
Idiot. It's a fucking Simpson. It's a literal
Simpsons game. It is. And you know what? Peter
Parker, you are living in the five boroughs, man.
Anybody finds that camera and sees that? They are
slowly peeling it off. That stinks
of Uncle Ben did that as a nice
thing. Oh, right. And
then he was like, he was too ashamed after
the death to like actually peel it off.
Right, right, right. It says, Peter
Parker.
By the way, what is with the lizards, the little lizards,
that are all over the New York City subway? I saw that.
It's like his babies.
I don't know.
Is that what it's supposed to be?
I mean, it is a lot like fucking penguin and Batman returns.
I guess.
Right, but at least there was a fucking zoo.
Yeah, yeah.
Or there was like a relationship between him and the penguins.
Are we pretending that that's happening?
And I've never seen a lizard in New York City.
Absolutely not.
It should be sewer all the aviators should be doing all the containers, dude.
Yeah.
Like just a gator walking like just standing up.
Hello.
To do it is bidding.
What do you need for me, my mask?
I was misremembering the, like, big scheme of his in the movie, and I was like, oh, he's planting those around Manhattan, so when this gas goes off, there's going to be lizard monsters.
But it's the gas turns people like him into lizards.
So I don't know.
They, like, smell their own, and he's, like, the biggest one, so he's, like, the king lizard?
I guess.
Sure.
So whatever.
It's like that Australian band, King Gizzard and the Lizard people, what's that band?
They're pretty good.
I can never remember their name, though.
He winds up going to the school
to kill Peter Parker.
Right.
And this is like just the big,
it's a school fight.
It's a, it's a pretty good fight.
He comes out of the toilet,
which I kind of like.
Absolutely great gag.
Goolies go to high school.
And he kind of looks like a goalie
because he's bald like the goolies.
Yeah, he's like a big old goo.
This is where we get our Stan Lee cameo.
This is a good Stan Lee cameo for two reasons.
One, it's funny and two.
he doesn't say anything.
It's silent.
Yes, he's got headphones on and he's like a librarian shelving stuff.
He doesn't notice that his library is being torn apart during this fight.
It's pretty great.
It's fine.
It's just like break fight.
Break fight for the 45 minute end of this movie.
But what's weird is the bridge thing has way more like public peril here,
which is why it feels like the end of a movie.
This fight scene, the school fight scene, is a perfect mid-movie.
movie fight.
Yeah.
Because nobody gets,
nobody's really,
the school's evacuated
immediately.
There's no,
like the public isn't really in danger in that way.
When Stacey gets involved a little bit here,
Peter throws her out the window and saves her with a web.
Right, right,
right, right.
When Stacey gets the other fucking Dennis Lerry line,
when they're back,
like,
fucking Peter Parker after the big fight comes up to her,
like goes into her room at night.
And then like Dennis Liri is like,
I want some cocoa.
And she's like,
no, dad,
I have cramps.
Oh, right. And he acts like she just said, I have seven children on the way.
Yeah, well, it's your, it's your classic, uh, uh, he stole that joke from Tim.
He wasn't, he wasn't, he wasn't stealing jokes from Bill, Bill, uh, Bill Hicks.
Bill Hicks, thank you.
Uh, uh, you're stealing jokes from Tim Allen.
Does the Tim Allen, uh, oh, my daughter's got her period.
Now that's, uh, now, to be fair, we don't know that Dennis Lurrie wrote that joke.
No, I'm not, I'm not, uh, but in that scene, it's also important because, like, he comes back in.
Like, he comes, he sneaks back into her bedroom and he's like, so, I'm Spider-Man.
How, on a skill of one to a million?
How horny are you right now?
And she is like, hey, man, I don't think we could get it on because, like, you can't be coming into this room beat up all the time.
It's a lot to handle.
Sure.
She does have, there's a good moment here where she's like, listen, my dad's a cop.
Every day he fucking straps a gun to the side of his body and walks out the door.
And I never know when he's coming back.
Sure.
Which, as the son of a cop.
I fucking totally relate to.
Then it's hilarious because he's like, well, all right, if you don't want to fool around,
you want to go web slinging?
And then he's just like, it's like fucking Superman.
They just missed the song.
Isn't web slinging a kind of fooling around at this point for him?
Oh, yeah.
Well, you got to, you know, your hands are all over the place.
That's the thing is like, one is web, one is come.
She doesn't know.
One is web.
Well, no, that's not where it comes from.
Again, dude, I think you need to go back to biology.
Yeah, I don't really know.
You have no fucking understanding of the human body.
We really have to do a whole wash here.
Oh, shit.
But they were desperately trying to smash their whatever.
Yes, the whatever's.
These fucking hillbilly schools in the middle of nowhere, my God.
So the movie's almost over right now.
Spider-Man's is briefly stunned by the police.
Right. Dennis Lurie shoots him from a helicopter.
He's got like the Swat team.
They care way more about Spider-Man than they do the lizard on the loose.
The last act of the movie takes place.
It's at night for some reason.
It's just at night.
And like the lizard wants to,
Lizard is kind of like
most disgruntled, fired employees
just wants to get home to go back
into the office, get his stuff,
like, you know what I mean?
They're not have a hassle about.
Just trying to clear out that desk, dude.
I had an Amazon package
that I didn't even open yet.
Can I just...
I'm not going to be weird about anything.
My bowling trophies, yes, much like
Uncle Ben, I have bowling trophies.
What he wants to get. Well, he actually
grabs his gas thing.
Right, the gas that has the
the lizard toxin in it. And you know, we don't get enough of the city of lizards because he starts
spraying it. We got some cops turning in the lizards. Way more city of lizards, dude. And this is a
massive letdown. Yeah. Because this people should be going lizard crazy. It should be like
the last act of chud where everybody, everything's on the table. Yep. Exactly. John Goodman's
that cop in the diner. He's freaking out. And like the only way to stop it is with a fucking gas
explosion. Yes, exactly. Bosch is there. Uh, and
So there's a thing here where it's kind of hilarious because it's just, it's Spider-Man on a cell phone casually making a call.
Yeah.
And he calls Gwen Stacy and he's like, hey, this is what, you know, Kirk Conner's is trying to do.
You need to fucking haul ass up to the Oscar office.
This is how you make the fucking antidote and whatnot.
And we, you know, we need to get this.
If we put that in this big machine, the cure will go out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because the lizard's running around.
He's just hucking these gas grenades at people.
Yeah. By the way, Dennis Leary lets Spider-Man go because he sees that it's Peter Parker and, you know,
he realizes they're on the same side kind of a thing. And also, yeah, so I mean, yeah, I just want more like people turning into lizards, people not turning into.
I want pure body horror. I want people screaming. I want some old couple being scared. Like, run, Harold, it's a monster.
Exactly. Everyone's transforming. And I want people to be like, there's a portal from hell down there.
You know what it has to be like?
When people are going fucking crazy in Ghostbusters 2.
Yeah.
Gone Flip City.
She wants to know me.
Wants to know why everyone I go on Flip City.
And there's like that old lady and she's got the fucking dogs that are dancing on her like Minkgoal.
Like just mass hysteria.
Also, all these lizard people used, most of them used to be cops, so they have guns.
That's lizard monsters plus guns.
Automatic.
I want one guy to be like, finally, this is what I've always wanted.
Thank you, Lord, for answering my prayers.
I'm a lizard.
In today from New York City, the lizard people finally came out of the sewer.
What have I been telling you people for years?
This is going to be a celebratory chilly night.
Oh, by the way, I'm emailing you child pornography.
Oops.
I will be in jail for a long time.
so much so my children were forget I exist
Oh this benefits liberals
Okay this was a false flag lizard invasion
You need to know this now folks
And false flag lizard invasion
They hired the Jim Henson company
To make these lizard puppets
I'd be into it
I'd be okay for turning into a lizard
At least for it like a little while
Just a little bit man I want to know what it's like to lay an egg
Do you think like dudes could
If they turned into the lizard people like could lay an egg
I don't know I don't know
I don't know I don't want to lay an egg
Well, the thing is, he, that's, I want to cook your egg, dude.
That's what the lizard is all about.
He wants, he's like, no, no, no, no.
This fucking exterior genitalia nonsense, it's a, it's a trap.
Absolutely.
We need to start laying eggs.
Nice hole that, like, sprays in and out of it.
That's it.
I don't know how it works.
I'll bet that.
So the lizard is like scaling the OzCorp building.
Nice scaling.
Oh, nice.
Yeah.
Well, this is, hold on.
Oh, I'm just beeping somebody really quick.
I just stopped the movie.
Because I fucking see Thomas Howells cut his show back up.
This is so insane.
And what is the deal?
Because, oh, that's what it is.
He's shot in the leg, Spider-Man does.
Dennis Leary is like, all right, you can go, Spider-Man.
And he runs off.
And all these cops are like, hey, he's getting away from DeBoss.
And they start firing wildly.
And Dennis Lewis, like, hold your fire.
And this one dude, like, nicks him in the thigh.
So then it's like, Spider-Man's crawling off this building.
And you get this news report.
This guy's like, Spider-Man is scaling this building.
looking a little sluggish.
It appears that Spider-Man may have a cramp.
We don't know exactly what's happening.
So he gets to the top of the-
Spider-Man had a big dinner, a report.
Spider-Man had a very large dinner.
Spider-Man went swimming less than 30 minutes after eating.
I also think Spider-Man might have got nicked in that juicy plump ass.
That spidey ass he's got.
Marcia, look at that thing.
Can we get a camera on that?
Wowza.
That kid's got a big ass.
Of course a slow dragging that thing
All up the side of a building like that
It's called gravity folks
And he wants to mash that with a human woman
So yeah
See Thomas Howell
I guess like spies what's going on
Or sees the television
And he knows exactly what to do
And he's like
He gets on this phone and he's like
Hey Angelo
You gotta call Vito and call
Oh get all these guys up
Line him up boys
Meanwhile, the city is being evacuated due to lizard plague.
And like this, and like, what are the guys like, what are you talking about?
What can't call anybody?
They're evacuating the city?
No, no, no.
I'm calling in favorites today.
I'm like, no, dude, I'm not turning into a lizard.
Go fuck yourself.
I'm C. Thomas Howell, and I'm the leader of all these crane people.
And I'm the last guy you want to mess with a crane.
And so, like, all these motherfuckers and hard hats are just operating.
operating this machinery and lining up all of these cranes so that Spider-Man has like an easy, straight shot to Oscourt Tower.
Which is very similar to that all that stupid shit that I've been in all three of those Ramey movies where it's like,
where New Yorkers, you don't mess with us.
Get out of our city.
And the original one happened on a fucking bridge.
Exactly.
Just don't do it again.
Like that's the easiest thing not to do.
audiences around the world
cringed three movies in a row
yes why make it a perfect four
but they don't know if it's in New York unless
yeah we're all getting involved so he's
oh actually I did I wrote down the first
see Thomas Howell-in because it's
really starts off the stupidity
he goes he's talking to some guy on the
on the job and he's like hey
you still friends with Matthews
that crane operator
and I'm like oh man the crane
movie's starting
he gets there. Now he's
fighting the lizard. A little rooftop
action. We do get, because we don't
want to make, and I think this movie does
a decent enough
job at trying not to make
Emma Stone a damsel in distress. She does not
get kidnapped. She makes
the solution. She makes the solution. She's
got her own sort of side mission at the
very least. Yeah. So the points.
But she
escapes the building, and
Dennis Leary is like, I got to go in and help
Spider-Man. And he runs up.
And he's got a shotgun
and he's going to kill the lizard.
This is kind of cool
because you get Dennis Leary shotgunning
this fucking Monstar for a little bit.
And there's like liquid nitrogen
all over the place.
It's almost,
it's this close to Dennis Leary
being in a Terminator movie.
Call the John now.
You want to call John?
Let me tell you about calling John.
John Connor is a piece of shit.
He always was.
I'm going to be outside.
You get into that phone.
You call John Connor.
I'm going to be out here smoking.
This does not.
This does not compute.
There seems to.
be some type of time anomaly you say you're a comedian you do the same act as another comedian it doesn't
it doesn't make am i in the wrong time although i do appreciate your love of leather jackets
which i too love leather jackets take it off take off your pants i need you i need your
no no no no no do it slowly i need your i need your boots your bike and your comedy routine
cancer. Boy, I sure do
love smoking. Every
time I get around a cigarette, I just
want to go. Mwa,
mwa, moa, moa,
I love it to smoke.
I am an azoleo,
leo, leo, leo, leo,
leo, leo.
A capa, fucking chino.
I want a cappuccine.
Not that's the weird stuff, just
plain black coffee. I dripped
over my son's Darth Vader
toy in the hallway and it scared
the shit out of me.
like comedy jokes
so yeah it's a big fight
the lizard totally impales
Dennis Leary right here
with this big claw hand
he murders him
uh Spider-Man gets the antidote
up into the thing
before the timer runs out
so the antidote is what sprays
all over the island
the lizard's tail gets cut off
and it gets
oh you spender and rips it off
yeah
and it just comes back
that's kind of gross
you think you could take that shit
to like a cream barbecue
and cook it up
oh absolutely
that'd be delicious
it'd be so good
but you have to pay extra
though, for sure. Oh, B-Y-O-M
Cabin, bring her with me? Absolutely. You're using
their labor. The antidote is in the air. Kurt Connich
turns to a halfman.
Yeah. I guess because, like, he
injected himself with so much of that shit
that it's, like, only going to revert so far.
And he's like, what have I done?
Right. Oh, no, Peter.
Oh, bummer.
He saves young Parker from
certain doom by pulling him back up
or whatever. All I wanted
was a city of Lizzie.
I thought you wanted a hand
I started there but it became an addiction
I needed a whole city of lizards
You killed Dennis Leary
The King of the Cops
You might as well slide off that roof
And just fucking end it right there
That's the thing dude
The lizard Kirk Connors that is
Is indeed brought into police custody
Never to be seen again, Rikers Island
Well no we do
We see him actually at the end of this stupid movie
for the bullshit stinger.
Yeah, you're right.
But then he's murdered right after that.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, so, like, he's, oh, as he's dying,
Peter's like, oh, man.
And again, more over, not overacting,
but just too intense acting from Andrew Garfield.
Like, Larry doesn't give him shit.
Yeah, I'm dying.
How are he going to do?
And he's like, give me last one smoke.
But he's like,
You got frapuccino.
You got crappuccino.
You got,
Peter.
No, but he's dying.
And he's like, Peter, Peter, come close.
I'm dying.
I have one last wish.
You have to honor.
Anything.
Anything.
Captain Stacy.
You've got to neg my daughter hard.
You got it.
Neg her, Peter.
And then he just drops dead, dude.
By the way, I know Steve often plays YouTube clips on here.
Oh.
I found there's, there's a, Arnold does have a routine about smoking, smoking, and it's really good.
Let's see if this is it.
Because after dinner, everyone ought to have a cigar.
So, I tried it.
Well, the rest is history.
I'm still smoking Stogis.
I love it.
And he introduced me to something really good.
And I know now the next question, knowing you,
uh, being the interviewer that you are,
digging in people all the time,
you will say now, what does your wife think about that?
Let me ask you something.
when my wife's father
has introduced me to Stogis
what is she going to say
she's not going to say my father made a mistake
because her father never makes a mistake
it is okay
I can smoke Stogis around her
I can smoke stogies in my house
Stop saying Stogies
Because her father introduced me to Stogis
And second more because I'm a stud
I don't take no shit from anyone
I smoke my stogie
anywhere I want
I don't have to find a hide-out place like you.
Who's he talking to?
I don't know.
I don't know, but it was going around the internet.
I just had to share it so good.
I love that.
Stogies.
My stogies.
You're stogie, and I'm a stogie.
We're all stogies.
You can tell he's trying to hold it back for so long, and he's like, you know what?
No, it's because I'm a stud.
I'm a fucking star.
I'm a fucking star.
That's his Dennis Leary routine.
Yeah, that's so great.
Great. So, yeah, he's like, oh, you know, you're too dangerous. You have to stay away from my dog.
Well, it's the classic thing of like, danger will always find you. The city needs you, but danger will always find you and the ones you love.
And I'm like, totally cool, man. Hey, you're dead? Awesome. Hey, Gwen, you want to go to the movies?
I need to see. Dude, bring the camera back behind Andrew Garfield's back and he's doing some crosses.
Crossing them fingers, dude. This dead guy doesn't know it. And I mean, like, sure, you're not allowed to date her, because.
You've been to vow to this dude
You're an honorable person, blah, blah, blah.
You're still allowed to go to his funeral
and not leave this woman
Like, wondering where you are.
Oh, I've been to plenty of funerals
Where I'm not horny.
Exactly.
Really?
Well, one, right?
Just that one.
Just the one time.
That's every time for me.
Oh, yeah, Chris has got more rig of mortars than the corpse.
He's always got a heart on this guy.
Yes, I do.
I know biologies
So it's kind of hilarious
Like Peter Parker goes home
There's kind of a nice gag
Where Aunt May has chastised him
Earlier in the film
For I asked you to bring eggs home
And you didn't
And he comes back beat to fuck
And he's got this nice
Dousin eggs
Kind of a funny gag
We see his bedroom
Do you catch what's going on
On this wall?
No
So it's a wall
It's like family photos
A really nice young
Like Apocalypse Now era
Martin Sheen
Oh yeah
All these great family photos.
But then right in the middle of all of this
is the fucking computer printout of the sketch artist
from the dude, like the suspect who murdered Uncle Ben
is right in the middle of all of it.
Still looking for him, dude.
Yeah, but you know what, man?
How about that's on a different bulletin board?
Yeah, that's true.
I'm just saying.
Learn to forgive and maybe grow as a character a little bit.
I mean, also, how many of those people
who were returned between Lizard and back to person actually made it?
like 10%?
We see a lot of those cops like,
huh, like turning back to people.
No.
Yeah, I don't know.
There has to be at least a couple of these little
lizard people that got beaten to death with baseball bats.
The first couple of gorillas from Hollow Man
before they got the one that goes directly,
the one that's got a belly melting out.
An old guy had a fucking lizard heart attack.
Totally happened.
What's happening to me?
It's too bad.
Leary died because he could walk around with a handgun
putting people out of their misery.
Oh, that's his job.
Yeah, just shooting his fellow officers in the head.
What if somebody was actually like, oh, my, finally a lizard, he gets in a car to leave the city because he doesn't want, he doesn't want to be cured.
That would be an interesting sequel set up as someone left the vicinity.
Someone got in the river, just swam away, swam out to Staten Island.
Oh, then Staten Island finally becomes the quarantine zone it deserves to be.
The city of lizard.
It's a city of lizards.
So that's pretty much it.
man is shown jumping
around in slow motion he slings some
web at the camera but I think that they were
like hey Mark you got to cut that short
because otherwise you're just giving your audience a facial
but it's like 20 more
minutes of like your audience of him being
sad and like he goes to class
the funeral and the teacher
is like Mr. Parker
can we end this movie Mr. Parker
no I have to get back with her kind of
yeah well yep
he does like this little thing where he's like
you know promises
are made to be broken or something like that.
Well so he's late for class and the teacher's
like late again and he goes I won't be late anymore
I promise and she goes
don't make a promise you can't keep and he goes
yeah but those are the best
ones and then she's like smirk
I just got negged
credits
I just got negged and my dad
is dead awesome
and in both the cases of Gwen Stacey
with losing her father
and Peter Parker losing Uncle Ben
they are at school the next
day.
Totally, man.
You know what, man?
Take some time.
Outrageous.
Uh, yeah, so that's pretty much the end of the movie here.
We get this weird, like, mid-credit stinger scene where it's, Kurt Connors is in jail.
Yeah.
And then, like, this mysterious dude just appears in the jail cell.
And it's like, you never told him about where he's from.
Oh, you know who that is, don't you?
I do.
The late Mr. Garbage Island himself.
Michael Massey.
Michael Massey, man.
Is playing this like
man in black character.
Look,
I got a home for you
on garbage island,
okay?
You can pull a couple
newspapers up around yourself.
You'll be just fine.
Do you like being a lizard person?
No.
I don't.
And he's just like,
you cannot tell the boy
who he really.
It's like,
it's some like coded horse shit.
Apparently Peter Parker's
like some prince
of Moldovia or something.
Like, what is this shit?
Who could care, and it never happens because this franchise was an abomination from this start.
And this guy vanishes.
He's in a locked jail cell, and he vanishes into the shadows.
No, he's got the power.
If you got that much juice, you can get in any jail cell you want.
Gotcha.
Oh, it's about the juice.
It's all about the juice.
I see.
You like it the juice.
You like it.
Isn't he famous Spider-Man villain, whatever man?
Like, just who does whatever and just do?
Well, some people were just, he was bitten by a redact.
radioactive whatever.
Some people were suspecting that it was
Norman Osborne, but I guess
in some interview before the sequel was made,
Reese EFunds was like, no, he's not,
but he's a dude that works for Norman Osborne.
Hey, pretty awesome.
Yeah, hey, cool, Reese.
Thanks a lot, buddy.
Great interview tidbit.
I guess if they did,
because if the second one did well,
they would have done a sinister six movie
and I guess Reese fans would have come back for that.
Well, because that's how that second movie
Stinger ends, right?
Is that fucking haul,
of garbage. Like
Confiore was supposed to be one of them.
It was a whole fucking thing. What a
duke tastrophe this whole thing was.
And you know, it was just too soon for
Spider-Man. We don't need, and it's
too soon for Batman. Honestly,
like, I'm excited for this Batman movie.
I'm going to see it because I'm a fucking
simp. But this cyclical nature
at some point
to retell the same story. Because think
about the time we had between
Batman and Robin and
Batman begins. Yes. Right?
Like that, I mean, it wasn't 10 years, but it was enough time.
It was like seven years.
But in between that, there were so many legal thrillers.
All these movies that are gone.
I missed.
Where are those fucking legal thrillers?
Where are the cyber thrillers?
Where are the erotic thrill?
Give me some guy running in the room.
Very rarely do movies include boats that are wired to explode anymore.
You know what I mean?
A houseboat that someone's living on.
Dark night.
Mm.
Although, but that ruins the perfection of this.
film. No one's living on it, though.
Yeah. A residence. And it's got files
in it that are reporting. Someone's pouring a glass
of whiskey on a boat underground
under the boat. And sleep next to
a dirty bed. Because
they're super divorced.
Oh, hell yeah, dude. Where are these movies?
Where's the divorce movies? Where's the divorce movies?
Where, yeah, where is... It's all about
fucking little kids and outfits.
Can I, can I let you know that there have been
in the last 19 years
76, roughly 76 superhero movies made.
That's outrageous.
Marvel properties in the last 20 years
there have been, there's been 32.
Yeah, 32.
We should mention these are numbers that Steve crunched himself
for no reason.
For literally no reason.
No, I'm sorry, 46 Marvel movies.
It's nuts.
You count man thing in that, dude?
No. It's got to be theatrical.
Oh, okay.
I just feel like Stan Lee did that speech at Devil's Advocate.
Like, can, can anyone tell, can anyone deny that the entire 21st century was entirely mine?
So I was smoking a J with Pandore and I said, hey, that box is kind of like my comic books.
I mean, you're not wrong, right?
Like, we have really been digging our heels into this show.
And you know, and they're already talking about the X-1 movies are coming back.
Even like, if, I mean, and far from home will probably be a good.
and be, you know, do well, et cetera, et cetera.
But, like, the clock is taking for the Spider-Man movie to come back.
Maybe I'll be old enough to play Uncle Ben one day.
And then Robert Don Jr. wants Ironheart.
Like, he already wants that thing.
Start right back back.
The, isn't it his second or third?
I forget what her name is.
Oh, yeah.
He's got, like, a protege that's like a young African-American woman.
And I think they call her Iron Heart.
Oh, but R.D.J would be involved?
No, he was just calling for it to start.
Like, he was because he can't take.
that the fucking press aren't fucking dying
for his comments anymore.
Well, he's got that cool idea
about using all that technology
to save the ocean, man.
Yeah, it's like a scam.
Did you already send him a check for $50?
No, but I'm just imagining.
Our DJ's like, all right, Steve,
I just need a check for $50 and your social security number.
Send it to care of happy, dude.
That, all right, that's enough.
That's the end of the Amazing Spider-Man, part one.
Would anybody recommend this movie?
No, it's like totally an essential.
It's pretty innocuous, which is why I think I was attracted to it to begin with,
because it doesn't take a big enough swing.
Like, that third Spider-Man movie is terrible, but it's taken some pretty big, dumb swings.
Yeah.
This one doesn't do that.
It's just totally clean.
It's actually filmed, I don't think Mark Webb is very good at all.
It's filmed very much like a TV show, kind of.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like none of the shots.
It does feel like a TV show.
None of the shots are very particularly memorable, just a no.
I liked Garfield.
I think with better material maybe, but no.
Yeah, I think that's true.
What I like about this is the central, like, Gwen Stacy, him and Gwen Stacy's father, that stuff works.
Yes.
And all the actors work in those situations.
But like, it is that, it's weird to think about this way.
But, like, Spider-Man 3 was just such a fucking, like, throw it all out there that, like, all I wanted was boredom.
Yeah.
Like, and this delivered boredom.
So I was like, that's fine with me.
And, like, coming back to it now, it is, like, impossible to get through.
Yeah.
yeah um it's not it's not for me you know when i did see it originally i was like oh yeah that was
totally fine it's you know it's just innocuous it's a spiderman movie it's fine it's fun going back
to it i was just so fucking bored in that runtime you feel every minute of it yeah no i agree and
it's interesting because i two questions i have related to the the spiderman world the movie world
right so like this plump ass not at all would we be more okay with this movie if this
was the first
Spider-Man movie
like if the first time
we got a really good
Spider-Man movie
the Rameys don't exist
probably yeah
yeah I would be like
no you don't think so
the lizard thing
would bother the shit out of
him being a dinosaur
like I
that would really be a stick
in my car
it's a Gumbah dude
listen
that's what a lizard is
lizard is a dinosaur
no I mean
I kind of split the difference
like yeah
you'd probably be okay with it
you'd probably like
the movie more
it would matter more
like that's the thing
is like it would be
the Spider-Man movies.
This is how I can see Spider-Man.
Now you just know you're getting it
every three years. And now, so here's the other thing.
So the other side of this question
then is, are we now looking back,
I guess, do we have a clearer vision
of this movie, or is the vision skewed of
these, this first movie at least,
because we have things like Into the Spider-Verse
and Tom Holland being Spider-Man in these movies
that I think at least are better than this portrayal?
Oh, quite a lot.
So are these now informing how we feel about these two movies?
Probably to a degree.
I mean, it would have to, right?
We've seen them.
But yeah, no, I mean, I guess just like, because we know you can do it better.
I will say, though, like I'm not, I like the Holland first Spider-Man movie a lot.
There's a lot about it I don't necessarily like.
I don't like Spider-Man being an Avenger, seeing this trailer, because you have to see the whole fucking movie in the trailer now.
But it just, it seems like it's a lot more avenger-y stuff and a lot more like, I'm, oh,
Willickers, I want to train to be like, blah, blah, blah.
I like, what I like about this is, like, Spider-Man's his own dude, you know what I mean?
Like, this movie has some of that stuff, which I like about the character, but, like, again, it's just, it's very dull.
Because the event, well, I disagree because the Avengers stuff, which I usually annoys the piss out of me in all the other Avengers movies, them sprinkling in to make sure everybody reminds that this is the biggest thing in the world, it works there because he wants to be, like, he's aspiring to be it.
I actually believe it as part of his worldview.
Like, even a normal kid would just want to be an Avengers.
So, like, I kind of get it at least.
Peter Parker is sort of like a good gateway for us as the audience.
So, like, everybody wants to be a superhero.
I liked far from homecoming a lot.
A whole whole lot.
Far from homecoming.
Far from homecoming.
That's the two movies to put together.
Far from homecoming is the movie about the kids who don't want to go to the dance
that they hang out the diner down the road.
So final question, which of these two, this fucking aborted failure
franchise of Spider-Man.
Which of these two movies is better?
Is it part one or is it part two?
I'm a big on two.
Because two is way stupid.
Like, they go all the fuck out stupid in that one.
You got Paul Giamatti.
It's crazy town.
It's absolute fucking lunacy.
I would say I think the first one is better.
Absolutely unequivocally.
But if I had to watch one of them again,
I'd probably watch the second one
because at least I could just get obliterated
and forget my troubles and chuckle at Jamie Fox.
If I remember Jamie Fox's like besieged janitor character
kind of didn't really come together for me.
Nope.
I think this one is more grounded and it's...
I don't appreciate it.
It's like a C-minus versus a pure on F.
Yeah, this is like paint by numbers
and then the sequel is like Jackson Pollock.
Yeah, wow.
That is an excellent way to put it.
it. And that is the amazing Spider-Man from 2012, directed by Mark Webb. If you want more
We Hate Movies, head on over to patreon.com slash we hate movies. There will be an episode
up soon enough on there where we're talking about another Sally Field classic, Forrest Gump.
Gird your loins for that one. Our Star Trek show, what? It's okay to like Forrest Gump.
Nobody cares if you do. Nobody cares if you don't. We're just telling jokes.
And it's okay to like Star Trek, too. Speaking of which, we do have a Star Trek podcast. The Nexus
Of course, we're going through the original series
and Star Trek the next generation.
We've got Chekhov coming on. He's all over the place now.
No, he's here.
He's here. That's right. Bad wig and all.
But as always, we hate movies rolls on into next week.
And the summer blockbuster extravaganza does continue.
Steve Sadek, what do we have on tap?
Ladies and gentlemen, get ready for the ugly truth.
Oh, Lord. This is Gerard Butler and Catherine Heigle at odds until
they fall on.
love.
Oh, yeah.
Get that plump,
Spidey.
Jared Butler's like a man cow-esque.
Yeah.
He's a shock jock kind of dude.
Is he on the radio,
though, or is a television?
I think he's on like a,
like he's getting on TV now.
Like they're bringing him on TV
for the first time.
I was going to say, I don't know,
his voice doesn't really work for radio, right?
It sounds like a,
someone putting rocks in a dishwasher.
I've got a face for radio.
That too.
I mean, I guess that too.
Yeah.
I mean, ugh.
I have seen this.
movie, but I have also greened
this movie. So I don't really remember a
whole ton of it, but this is, of course,
we always like to do a rom-com during
summer blockbuster extravaganza, just to
lighten the load a little bit. And we
always have fun with romantic comedies here on the show.
So that'll be a lot of fun. Until
next week, with The Ugly Truth, I'm Andrew
Juppin. Stephen Sannacken. Chris Cabin.
Eric Siskin. Take it easy.
That was a hate gum podcast.
