There are two truly fantastic Spider-Man movies: 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming and 2018’s animated gem Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. (For those of you screaming, “What about the incredible 1978 Japanese Spider-Man in which Spidey battles monsters from inside a giant robot?” Please SHUT UP. Though you’re correct that this was one of the greatest artistic accomplishments of our lifetime, that was a series, not a movie. Now stop interrupting.)
Both of those wholly excellent films spotlighted the attribute that separates Spider-Man from all other less interesting heroes: his hormonal humanity.
