TOBEY MAGUIREโS SPIDER-MAN WAS THE BEST LIVE ACTION PETER PARKER WEโVE EVER GOTTEN!!!
HEโS NOT THE PERFECT COMIC ADAPTAION, BUT HE CAPTURES THE PURE NERDY GOOF THATโS AT THE CORE OF PETERโS CHARACTER!!!
HEโS MELODRAMATIC, HAS A CHIP ON HIS SHOULDER TOWARDS PEOPLE MORE WELL OFF THAN HIM, IS A LITTLE BIT OF A BASTARD, YET STILL WHOLESOME, KIND, AND DORKY!!!
HE DEALS WITH ALL THE HARDSHIPS THAT PETER IS SUPPOSED TO DEAL WITH, AND HAS A GENUINELY BEAUTIFUL AND SWEET RELATIONSHIP WITH MARY JANE!!!
TOBEYโS SPIDEY HONESTLY HAS SUCH A GREAT ARCH IN THE FIRST TWO MOVIES AND HIS GROWTH FROM A GOOD BOY INTO A GREAT MAN IS UNMATCHED!!!!
HIS GOOFY CHARM IS THE HEART AND SOUL OF THE MOVIES AND DONโT YOU DARE SAY HEโS A BAD SPIDER-MAN OR A BAD PETER!!!
“What am I doing with my soul? Interrogate yourself, to find out what inhabits your so-called mind and what kind of soul you have now. A child’s soul, an adolescent’s, a woman’s? A tyrant’s soul? The soul of a predator— or its prey?”

Aurelius, Meditations: A New Translation (5:11)
“At your weakest, you end up showing more strength; at your lowest, you are suddenly lifted higher than you’ve ever been. They all border one another, these opposites and show how quickly we can be altered.”
— Cecelia Ahern (via quotemadness)
