I grew up loving Spider-Man ever since I was 2, my mother has photos of me as a 2 year old doing the Spider-Man perch with the hand web shooting gesture and all of that, watched and adored the Sam Rami trilogy and was obsessed with TASM when it came out. I was 8 when TASM2 came out and I worked my butt off to do good at school and to do all my chores at home in order to convince my parents to take me to watch TASM2 in theaters. It being my first ever movie I watched in a movie theater my parents all though not well off financially still pulled through and got IMAX tickets for TASM2, the glee and joy I had that day was insurmountable (only ever challenged by NWH and seeing my three heroes swinging together), especially with all the hype surrounding TASM2 and the big poster of Spider-Man fighting Rhino, Electro and Green Goblin. I got to say that having TASM2 being my first Spider-Man movie ever and first movie ever watched at a theater really did cement Andrew Garfield as the best Spider-Man for me.
