It has been ten years since the release of The Amazing Spider-Man and we’re looking back on the film and its place within the Spider-Man franchise. We talk casting, moments that stand out, whether it was necessary to reset the franchise, comparisons to the 2002 Sam Raimi film, and Andrew Garfield’s renewed popularity playing that character after the release of Spider-Man: No Way Home. 

We’re once again joined by Sam Stone, freelance columnist for Looper and Comic Book Resources to name a few to helps us look back on this film ten years later. We also cover some news items at the top of the episode including the Neve Campbell Scream 6 rumors and Chris Pratt’s latest release, The Terminal List.
