I think for all the people knocking the Raimi movies need to remember that before his spiderman in 2002 superhero movies were either the laughing stock of hollywood (from batman and robin) or just meh (like the first X-men movie) . Those spiderman movies are why superhero gets so much of hype these days from there on we got spiderman 2, TDK, Ironman, Avengers and so on. This movie would be considered good to me pre spiderman in 2002.

You know Spider-Man did not start the Superhero movie hype, it was X-Men in 2000. Actually it was Blade 1998 but most people did not even know that Blade was a Marvel Superhero. After that came Spider-Man which was the first huge Superhero success with braking several records and earning a lot money. But without the first X-Men movie Spider-Man would never have become that huge, at least the first one would not.

Um no Spider-Man would have been huge with or without the X-Men movies, don't know what you're talking about. Spider-Man is like Batman and Superman - he will be huge no matter what (as long as the movie is good).

Maybe, maybe not. But the fact is X-Men started the Superhero hype. If X-Men would have flopped Spider-Man would might not even be made.

I edited my post a bit, but Spider-Man would have been made no matter what though.... cause he's on a different level than X-Men (he's on the Superman/Batman tier of superheroes).
In fact they were trying to get a Spider-Man movie made since the 90s but never got off the ground until Sony bought the rights. Spider-Man was going to get made no matter what and was going to be HUGE no matter what, the only question was which script and director was right?
And I have to thank gosh that The Amazing Spider-Man wasn't the first one in 2002....
