She made good movies after this. Yeah, but it's not about making good movies. I knew this is where we'd slip up here. Apex Mountain. Apex Mountain is a hazy category. It's not like what was the best movie she's ever been in. It's like when did she have the most juice in her career? But she had Marie Antoinette in 2006. You know what? Delete this. It is her. Wait, no. Leave it in. You want to leave it all in. I was just saying she has Marie Antoinette in 2006. She had powers back then. This is my thing with the kids. I'll be honest with you. No one gives a fuck about Marie Antoinette. And like, I don't know what to tell you, Charles. No one gives a fuck about Marie Antoinette. And the reality of the situation is Power of the Dog was great. But if I show people a picture of Kirsten Dunst, you're not even naming the movie that's actually pushing the movie. The movie I would say that's pushing it is Bring It On. I would say Bring It On is pushing it more than Power of the Dog. She's done great stuff. She has a great career going. She's got a great career going. But this is her apex mouth, man. She's Mary Jane Watson. She's Mary Jane Watson. This is her apex mouth. You know what I mean? Come on, man. She's got a great career going. So Tobey Maguire, I'd say yes. Tobey Maguire, yes. Is it splitting hairs if we are like, no, Spider-Man 2, is this real apex? Or are we just doing all Spider-Man films, ours apex? I'm thinking this is, I think we can go ahead and give them the apex mouth in Spider-Man. Spider-Man 2 could be it. But I think it's cool to combine them right here. The question is, is this the apex mouth for Spider-Man movies? Because I would say that maybe it was, but now it has to be Spider-Man No Way Home. In terms of box office, in terms of like, for a film to follow up Avengers Endgame like that, like, yeah, I don't think it's the apex mountain for Spider-Man films. I had Tobey Maguire in here. I also wanted to ask you, am I bugging for saying that this is Sam Raimi's apex mountain? No, this is Sam Raimi's apex mountain until, until next month. If Multiverse of Madness comes out and goes as crazy as people think that it's going to go, that it could push this movie as Sam Raimi's apex mountain. Of course, for me, Sam Raimi's apex mountain is army of darkness. You know what I mean? Like, I like what I like. You know what I'm saying? I like Evil Dead. I like army. I like, like, I like Evil Dead 2. Like, I like what I like. Drag Me to Hell. All these are movies that I love, right? So I like what I like. But this is probably Sam Raimi's apex mountain. Or, you know, if we're counting this and Spider-Man 2 together, Sam Raimi's apex mountain. But Multiverse of Madness could be a genre-changing situation. I disagree. Because Multiverse of Madness was going to be what it was going to be, no matter who directs it. That's not a shot at Sam Raimi. It's just like, it's called the Multiverse of Madness. I think Spider-Man will forever be apex. That's just Spider-Man. Okay. Picking this. Spider-Man gets in a fight with Flash Thompson at school. In this fight, first of all, the reason why this fight happens is because Spider-Man mistakenly webs Flash Thompson's lunch tray. Or a lunch tray. And he hits Flash with it. He then leaves the lunch area, dragging the lunch tray with his webbing from his hand. Then he fights Flash Thompson and flips over his head. So the whole school has seen him web the tray and do the mid-air flip. No one can figure out that he's Spider-Man. Mary Jane saw both of these things. Mary Jane saw him web. I don't know what they thought that was. Saw him web and saw him flip. She can't figure out he's Spider-Man. Let's take this one step further. I forgot that this even happened. And at the end of the movie, she kisses Peter again. He leaves from the cemetery. And then she feels their lips. She's like, those are the same lips as Spider-Man. I'm like, Mary Jane, this is a man who was literally talking to you. You are about to get mugged. And then Spider-Man shows up five seconds later. And it took you this long between the high school, between you getting saved by the muggers from Spider-Man, and then you kissing him at the cemetery. It took, because this is like what? This is over a year? It took her a year to piece all of this together. Yeah. And he takes pictures of Spider-Man? Come on. More nits. Looking back on it in the movie, Peter blew up at Uncle Ben for just no fucking reason. It's bad. It's bad. He comes off looking like a dick. He blew up at Uncle Ben for no reason. Uncle Ben was just concerned and was dropping him off at the library for no reason he blew up at Uncle Ben. As a matter of fact, I could, we'll talk about this in probably unanswerable questions, but he blew up at Uncle Ben for no reason. Another nit that I have, Harry is Peter's best friend. You just snake his girl like that, the girl he made, and don't even tell him. You just like, I don't know, you just, Peter, you never made a move. You've been in love with the girl since you're six years old. That really happened between boys?
