Oh we are truly being spoilt today!!!

Wasn't expecting to have to pull this out so soon, but: the importance of Bruce Campbell's cameo in this one is that he's the only character to ever decisively defeat Spider-Man. Peter wanted to get into a theater, Campbell wanted him not to, and it didn't happen.

One thing I've always appreciated about this one is that it doesn't do that thing where the other person the hero's love interest is currently hooked up with is a complete jerk to justify the hero trying to break them up, which in its worst cases just makes the love interest look bad for seemingly being happy to stay with them (Wedding Crashers is perhaps the all-time worst of these). Instead, John Jameson is a perfectly nice guy who would clearly be good for her, which is made clear when rather than the final shot being Peter triumphantly swinging away after getting the girl, we instead go back to Mary Jane clearly uneasy and wondering if she made the right choice.

This is the movie that Roger Ebert famously declared to be, “The best superhero movie since the modern genre was launched with Superman.” Whilst I wouldn’t go that far myself, it is the best of the Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy. Not my favorite Raimi film all together, that would be The Quick and the Dead. But certainly, the magnum opus of the trilogy. It's this film that introduces my favorite character of the trilogy, Doc Ock. Alfred Molina is always brilliant, and he brought the gravitas to the role. Again, Danny Elfman delivers with a bombastic theme. You're not wrong on the hospital scene feeling like a horror movie which is most appropriate when one considers that Raimi directed the Evil Dead trilogy. The clocktower/train battle is one of the best action set-pieces in any superhero film. Yes, Doc Ock is a wonderfully tragic villain, and I appreciated what you had to say about him. This film also has my favorite scene of Spider-Man as a character, in film at least. The scene being where he saves the girl from the burning building. He doesn’t have his powers, he doesn’t even have his suit, yet he still charges in, saves the little girl, and proves he is Spider-Man. I would like to say, Jess, it warms the heart to hear you say that Aunt May is your favorite character. Your reactions to all her scenes got me emotional. I LOVED how protective you got of her. Another part of the reaction that got to me was your reaction to when Ursula offers Peter the cake. I also did get a laugh when you noted it wasn’t chocolate cake. It's great to hear you express appreciation for J. Jonah Jameson. He is regarded as one of the highlights of the trilogy, and J. K. Simmons played the part to perfection. That tea-kettle cackle of his never gets old. Another great cameo by Bruce Campbell as an usher who takes his job seriously, and we love. I like too how you caught the Stan Lee cameo. Concerning the messy plotlines, I was most curious how you would react to them. I liked how you tackled each of them with equal weight. I loved that you loved how there was the strong focus on mental health in this. Harry does provide a conundrum. I do sympathize and empathize with him. I look back and realize I always have, though in recent years those feelings are stronger. Definitely, as you noted, he is grieving heavily his dad’s death, and contending with the lack of approval from his dad. The question of whether Peter should have had the difficult conversation with Harry beforehand, he probably should have. That conversation being the easiest thing in the world is a separate question. Certainly, it is difficult to do so when your friend is grieving his dad, as that is most powerful grief. And we saw how difficult it was for him to have the talk with Aunt May about Uncle Ben. Of course, now the situation is more complicated with Harry being haunted by the specter of the Goblin, complete with a delightful Willem Dafoe cameo. Which of course, will lead us into, as you put it, Spider-Man 3: The Messiest, which upon hearing you call it that, I said, “That’s... undeniably an accurate title.” Thank you so much for this most wonderful reaction and thank you again for the similarly wonderful reaction to the first film as well. I look forward to your reaction to Spider-Man 3: The Messiest. Until then, this was most lovely, Jess, thank you.

I saw Far From Home on opening night, and the whole theater went absolutely nuts at the return of Simmons as Jameson. For years he'd been heralded as the one comic book actor who it would be impossible to replace and the MCU should just bring him back (even more than Hugh Jackman!) so to finally see it happen was beautiful.

Didn’t catch Far From Home opening night, but I did catch it within the first few days of release. I saw it with my cousin. And her favorite memory of it is me losing my shit over seeing J. K. Simmons once again as J. Jonah Jameson. I myself look back on how I caught the news broadcaster mention The Daily Bugle, I went, “Wait. What?” then when we saw Jonah, as I said, I lost my shit. It was a great experience. Sounds like you had a good time yourself at that scene which is great to hear.

And apparently we came very close to it not happening, with the filming time only arranged literally the day before. That also meant there wasn’t any time to fit Simmons for the classic Jameson hair, so the MCU Jameson is bald like he really is.
