    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The first film to gross $100 million in its opening weekend alone at the domestic box office. At the time, no movie had done so, even when adjusted for inflation.
    • Goofs
      (at around 18 mins) After Parker wakes up the morning after getting bitten, a boom mic is seen at the top of the mirror as he is looking at himself.
    • Quotes
      • [last lines]
      • Peter Parker: [voiceover] Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never forget these words: "With great power comes great responsibility." This is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider-Man.
    • Crazy credits
      At the end of the closing credits the theme song from Spider-Man (1967) is played.
    • Alternate versions
      In the version that showed on Cartoon Network, there were many cuts for time, violence, and swearing. All uses of ass, hell, and damn were scrubbed from the movie (i.e. Goblin says "we're gonna have [an interesting] time" as opposed to a "hell of a time"). References to religion were also trimmed. There is also an alternate angle of Norman getting impaled that is less violent.
