This was an excellent sequel
It's not always easy to make a movie sequel. In some cases, it's not even a good idea. In my not so humble opinion, they did a great job with this one!I admit I was worried. I wondered just how they'd handle Doctor Octopus. They did a good job.Some classic moments that stick with me: Peter Parker's frenzied attempt to make a timely pizza delivery, while fighting crime at the same time. Whoever thought a super hero would have such concerns? Peter Parker has difficulty paying the rent because he can't keep a job!The funniest scene was one in which his spidey powers had failed him. He was forced to take an elevator wearing his Spider-Man suit. A man was in the elevator with him, and casually talked about the suit. It went something like this:"Nice suit." Spider-Man, "Thanks... it rides up in the crotch a bit."The most dramatic scenes involved Dr Octopus and Spider-Man fighting aboard the subway. Spider-Man had just managed to save the train and lie there, exhausted. His mask was torn, and everyone had seen his face.They reassured him that his secret was safe, and he was their hero.Dr Octopus arrived, ready to take Spider-Man away. The entire crowd stood up to support Spider-Man.Spider-Man 2 is a much-valued addition to my collection. I only hope Spider-Man 3 will be just as good.
