Yeah, yeah, we all know the story. Spider bite, uncle dies, become the hero, get the girl. Is there anything we can do to mix up the webhead's origin to make it more than a pale imitation of what's come before? How about focusing on his relationship with his uncle? Instead of dying before the half-way point of the movie, why not have Ben live until the third act? Why not focus on realism? Spider-man can still crack jokes, but why not make New York look like real-life New York, warts and all? Why not take out Supervillains and have Spider-Man fight gangbangers and organized crime? Why not focus on the time between Spider-Man developing his powers and Spider-Man confronting his uncle's killer in real time, rather than just making it a plot point? Why do we need a love interest either? We can make a cool Spider-Man film without a love story. Why not show Spider-Man Small Time?
