The Summer of Spidey continues this week with the 2004 sequel SPIDER-MAN 2! Sam Raimi and the whole gang is back and they look as tired as ever. This time Spider-Man faces off against the villainous Doctor Octopus, whose complete lack of foresight and attention to safety protocols causes CGI mayhem all over Chica — I mean, New York City. Is SPIDER-MAN 2’s reputation as one of the all-time great comic book movies deserved, or is this a case of nostalgia run amok? We discuss the film and recast it with all the grit and cocaine of old New York, plus a comic book movie news roundup!
