Spiderman 1-10 -

The Art Apocalypse Wait, this isn't live action? It doesn't matter. This animated masterpiece makes the previous eight look like student films. Hundreds of Spider-people. A plot about canon events that breaks your heart. Spider-Punk. Spider-Cat. Spider-Rex. The cliffhanger ending leaves you screaming into the void. It is the best Spider-Man movie since Spider-Man 2 .

The Baby One Tom Holland arrives. He’s 15. He has a Stark suit. He has an AI. He has an Aunt May who is suddenly hot. The villain, Vulture (Michael Keaton), is a dad with a salvage business. The stakes are low, but the anxiety is high. It’s Ferris Bueller’s Day Off with web-shooters.

As we prepare for the soft-reboot Spider-Man 11: Home Before Dark , let’s look back at the beautiful, baffling journey of Peter Parker 1 through 10. Spiderman 1-10

It has been twenty years since Tobey Maguire first caught that tray of cafeteria food, and in that time, Hollywood has done what Hollywood does best: milked the radioactive spider for every last drop of web-fluid. We are now somehow living in a timeline where there are ten mainline Spider-Man movies. Not ten good ones. Ten of them.

The Skater Boi Reboot Andrew Garfield brings the quips, the skateboard, and the chemistry with Emma Stone that could power a small city. Unfortunately, he also brings a mystery about his parents that nobody asked for. The Lizard looks like a rejected Power Rangers villain, but Gwen Stacy’s brains save the day. For now. The Art Apocalypse Wait, this isn't live action

From cheesy 2000s montages to multiversal collapses, Peter Parker has aged from a nerd to a skater to a child soldier to a cartoon. The lesson? With great power comes great responsibility... and great box office returns.

The Perfect One Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock. The train sequence. Peter literally stopping a runaway train with his bare hands and teenage angst. This is the Godfather Part II of superhero movies. If you don’t cry when Peter reveals his mask to Aunt May, you are legally dead inside. Hundreds of Spider-people

The Lost One The only film on this list that doesn't exist yet. Delayed endlessly. Rumored to be three hours long. Will Miles save his dad? Will Gwen’s dad quit the force? Will we ever see it? The legend says that if you stand in front of a Sony Pictures building and whisper "Canon event," a producer appears and delays the release by another month.

The Emo One We don’t talk about the finger-guns. We don’t talk about the jazz club strut. But we must talk about Topher Grace as Venom. This movie is a beautiful train wreck. It gave us the single greatest meme template of the 2000s. Is it bad? Yes. Is it entertaining? Like watching a live-stream of a dumpster fire. Emo Peter’s hair deserved its own spin-off.
