From Flower Vase to Film Emperor in Hollywood

“You are truly incredible, Spider-Man, you and I are so alike.”

“I am not like you. You’re a murderer.”

“Well, just different ways of expressing ourselves.”

The story unfolds with a slight surprise—

Who could have imagined that the Green Goblin and Spider-Man would actually have a calm conversation?

Peter's medication still hasn't worn off, and he sits powerlessly on the ground. Even if he doesn't want to talk, he has no choice, but at least he can respond.

The Green Goblin, or rather, Norman, looks down at Spider-Man, becoming more and more appreciative and satisfied. He feels they should be a match made in heaven.

“I chose my path, and you chose to become a superhero.”

“The public only has a three-minute interest in you, but what they crave most is the failure, fall, and death of a hero.”

This time, not because of shock, but because of reflection—

In fact, the newspaper editor's viewpoint is a reality. Although people deny, resist, and despise it, no one can deny that this is the reality.

Never overestimate human nature; cruel reality will always redefine the bottom line again and again.

But Peter won't waver, “Because it's the right thing to do.”

The Green Goblin steps forward, affectionately pats Spider-Man's head, and lies down next to him like a buddy, chatting intimately while counting the stars—

If the atmosphere were slightly different, this would be a romantic love movie.

Green Goblin: “Reality is like this.”

“There are eight million citizens in New York, and their existence serves only one purpose: to carry a few outstanding geniuses on their shoulders, you, me, geniuses like us.”

“Of course, I can crush you with one foot, but I'm giving you a choice…”

The Green Goblin grabs Spider-Man's chin, turns his drooping head, makes eye contact, and the corner of his mouth under the mask lifts slightly.

“Join me.”

“Imagine the great things we can accomplish together, the future we can create, or… the destruction we can wreak.”

“For your so-called ideals, innocent civilians die and are injured, until we both fall. Is that what you want?”

“Think about it, hero!”

Then, the Green Goblin leaves triumphantly.

The next day, the headline of the 'Daily Bugle' reads, “Spider-Man and the Green Goblin Collude,” and Spider-Man's wanted poster is posted, putting Peter in a difficult situation.

All indications prove that the Green Goblin seems to be right.

However, this newcomer who has just entered society has his own troubles. He immediately finds Mary Jane to encourage the girl he secretly loves—

He learns that Mary Jane has gotten an audition opportunity.

Unfortunately, Mary Jane didn't get the role.

Originally, Peter wanted to invite Mary Jane to dinner, “I'll treat you to a burger, with a price limit of $7.84.” His self-deprecating tone successfully won Mary Jane's smile. Unfortunately, Mary Jane and Harry already have dinner plans.

In fact, Peter could sense that Mary Jane and Harry's relationship had problems after the World Unity Festival, and he subconsciously asked.

Unexpectedly, Mary Jane immediately saw through him, “Why do you care so much?”

Under Mary Jane's gaze, Peter's heart was instantly gripped by tension, “I don't.”

Mary Jane: “You don't?”

“Uh, why should I care?”

“I don't know either, why?”

Mary Jane looked at Peter, gently raised the end of her eyebrow, revealing a hint of teasing, which made Peter a little embarrassed, and two blushes floated on his cheeks.

“I, uh, cough cough, I, don't know.”

Peter didn't know what he was saying. He clearly had so many words in his mind, but his tongue was tied. On the one hand, he tried to say his true thoughts, but on the other hand, he hesitated and retreated at the critical moment.

In the end, he didn't say anything.

Mary Jane didn't continue to ask, “It's a pity you're not coming with us.”

Peter could only stand there blankly, as if he had become that nerd in middle school again, watching Mary Jane leave, but finding that a group of villains had noticed Mary Jane and were secretly following her, with ill intentions.

To make matters worse, it started to pour.

Peter hurriedly transformed into Spider-Man, saving Mary Jane in a moment of crisis.

In a hurry, Peter didn't even have time to put on his mask, but quickly knocked down those hooligans under the cover of the dim light in the alley. So after finishing his flower-protecting mission, Peter hurriedly wanted to leave, but he didn't expect Mary Jane to call him to a halt.

Peter put on his mask and descended upside down like a spider, seemingly regaining his confidence and starting to joke, “You seem to have a habit of getting into trouble.”

Mary Jane was startled and turned around to see Spider-Man, and jokingly teased back, “You seem to have a habit of saving me. Do I have a superhero stalker?”

Peter: “I just happened to be nearby.”

Mary Jane: “You're amazing.”

Peter: “Some people don't think so.”

Immediately, Mary Jane thought of the 'Daily Bugle' headline, “But you're really great.”

Peter: “It's nice to have admirers.”

Mary Jane: “Can I express my gratitude this time?”

Peter was stunned—

The rain was pouring down, and both of them were soaked, even trembling slightly, but Mary Jane still carefully pulled open Spider-Man's mask, not completely opening it, just revealing half of it.

Then.

She tiptoed, cupped his cheeks, and placed her lips on his.

Oh.

At this moment, in this brief instant, the entire screening room was melting, covering their chests and sighing softly, like marshmallows soaked in hot chocolate, happy and romantic pink bubbles instantly filled the entire venue.

Robert: ? ? ?

A moment ago, Robert was praising Sam Raimi's mise-en-scène. In science fiction and action movies, camera work is crucial for the audience's sense of immersion and excitement. So far, Sam's camera work has been smooth and dizzying, bringing an incredible viewing experience.

Moreover, this scene is both a rainstorm and a dark alley. If you are not careful, it may be a dark mess, and the audience cannot see the fighting scene clearly at all.

But Sam is worthy of being from a horror movie background. The scene is completely processed into a black and white light and shadow visual presentation, giving full play to the actors' slender limbs to develop the fighting design. The collision of lines and lines instead seizes the opportunity of dim light to create a comic effect in the dark light.

Wonderful!

Audiences often don't pay attention to such details, but from a viewing experience perspective, it is the key to creating impact and viewing pleasure.

Robert is willing to give Sam a round of applause.

Of course, Anson is also a pleasant surprise. The fighting scenes are filmed cleanly and neatly, making full use of his advantages. Even a full-view long shot can withstand the test, and it can be seen that his basic skills are solid.

However!

Unexpectedly, the screening room actually caused a commotion because of a kissing scene?

Robert couldn't help but laugh a little. This kiss scene that defied gravity was indeed... ingenious, giving full play to Spider-Man's abilities and using imagination based on the comics. It can be regarded as an innovation, but Robert still can't understand women's thoughts no matter how he looks at it.

However, back to the topic, Hollywood movies are originally about creating dreams, so there is no problem with exaggerating a little.

Robert is a little curious whether this scene will be like the flying scene at the bow of 'Titanic', unexpectedly opening up the situation for the movie and eventually becoming a classic.
