Chapter 110
Countless excited fans wore Spider-Man suits and appeared at the premiere scene in a mighty force.
It was simply like multiple shadow clones of Spider-Man; thousands of multiverse Spider-Men were all concentrated here, and the scene was quite spectacular.
"I'm so excited!!"
"It's finally here!!"
Xu Can's loyal fans, the Leonard and Sheldon quartet from Caltech, appeared at the premiere ceremony.
They were all wearing Spider-Man masks, their hands numb with excitement!
"I'm worried, what if the reputation of the sequel can't keep up with the previous work?"
Howard said suddenly.
"Don't worry." Sheldon was full of confidence. "With Xu Can's movies, there's no such thing as a decline in reputation."
The theater suddenly darkened!
"Spider-Man 2" is here!
"Spider-Man 1" made Sony a fortune.
When it came to the sequel, they naturally wouldn't be sloppy; a budget of $200 million was a big deal no matter when it was.
From the opening of "Spider-Man 2," even the logo animation was remastered in high definition, highlighting a sense of wealth.
First was the traditional "Torch Lady" of Columbia Pictures, but this time there were a few more Easter eggs.
The Torch Lady appeared slowly, but then a web shot onto the torch.
Spider-Man flew in from outside the screen, intending to swing with the web.
As a result, the Torch Lady was just a thin piece of cardboard; Spider-Man pulled the Torch Lady down directly, leaving Spider-Man standing there awkwardly.
Then he pulled the web and swung away quickly from the right side of the screen.
This was the first time Columbia Pictures had played with Easter eggs in the opening under Xu Can's suggestion, and later this became their tradition, leading a trend of Hollywood opening Easter eggs.
The audience at the scene smiled knowingly.

After the opening logo, the film used a quick montage of comics to help the audience sort out the plot of "Spider-Man 1."
"With great power comes great responsibility."
"Peter, you are actually..."
"Oh ho ho, little bug, which one do you choose to save?"
"This is my talent, and also my curse."
"Who am I? I am Spider-Man."

The little bug in the comic shot a web to swing, the screen transitioned, and it instantly switched to the real world!
Spider-Man was wearing his classic suit, shuttling between the high-rise buildings of Manhattan, New York!
The film used the evolved Spydercam 2.0 from the start! The visual effect was a level higher than the first generation!
The opening made movie fans shout for joy!
"New York Times Helicopter 1 reporting live, the truck carrying plutonium of the Osborn Group has been hijacked!"
"The police are chasing it! It is said that the suspect's name is Aleksei, codenamed Rhino..."
Fans familiar with Spider-Man were shocked. The big villain in Spider-Man, Rhino from the Sinister Six, appeared at the beginning?
At this time, Rhino was still a human. He hijacked a truck and was fleeing, but Spider-Man climbed onto the car.
"Hello sir, I am your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Hey hey hey, you're speeding."
"Oh? You don't know how to operate a truck? Let me teach you?"
Spider-Man's chatterbox attribute flared up, showing his talent as a joke-teller in front of the villain.
The opening rendered a relaxed and happy atmosphere; who could have imagined how heavy the tone of the film would be later.
After Spider-Man and the villain's banter, he used fancy web techniques to successfully stop the truck from causing greater harm and captured the villain Rhino alive, saving New York City once again.
Even in the process of saving New York, Spider-Man had to pick up his phone to answer Gwen's call.
The blonde Gwen was incredibly beautiful in her graduation gown. She was waiting for Peter to appear, but Peter was busy saving the world.
Finally, at the last second, Peter swung in with a web and arrived at the scene, successfully catching the last sentence of Gwen's speech, and the two embraced and kissed.
Stan Lee made another cameo, shouting in the audience.
"I know him! He is Deadpool!"
A small Easter egg made the audience in the theater roar with laughter again.
At the graduation ceremony, the intimate interaction between Gwen and Peter fed the whole audience dog food.
The love in their eyes could be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
"They definitely aren't acting!"
Taylor, since secretly watching the premiere of "La La Land" last time, also appeared in the premiere theater this time.
Seeing the kissing scene between Xu Can and Emma on the screen, Taylor felt both ice and fire this time.
"WTF?!! They clearly haven't broken up! Asshole! Xu Can, you big jerk! I'm breaking up with you when I get back!"
"But... it's really good to ship. When we kiss, is it this sweet?"
Taylor was directly made unconfident, her heart feeling incredibly sour.
However, immediately after, this couple had problems.
Like the end of the previous work, Peter could see the shadow of Captain George everywhere, as if warning him to keep his word.
Gwen was angry.
"Why are you repeating yourself? We've talked about this many times."
"But I can't forget what your father said. He is everywhere, and I promised him."
"This is our relationship, it has nothing to do with him."
"I can't face myself..."
"Don't you love me?"
"I do, but I'm worried you'll encounter danger too."
"It doesn't matter! I will protect myself, and I believe you can protect me too!"
"But..."
"OK, I've had enough, let's break up."
Seeing this scene, Taylor didn't know why she felt relieved, but also very regretful.
"Good! You should break up! You shouldn't be together!"
"However... it's really a pity for Gwen and Peter."
Taylor felt like she was going to have a split personality.
Peter, frustrated in his emotions, was also suffering from the hardships of life.
He needed high tuition fees for college and had to pay rent in New York, so he could only work hard to make money and had to deal with difficult courses.
These were already enough to crush an ordinary person, but Peter still had to play Spider-Man, fighting crime in the sky over the city at night.
Peter was now just an 18-year-old young man, and the endless pressure made him almost unbearable.
Finally, one night, Peter was preparing to catch a criminal.
He shot out a web, but he was dizzy and hit a billboard, falling to the ground from a height of more than 30 meters!
"Oh, my back!"
No way, Spider-Man could only carry his bag and take the subway home.
Being watched on the subway, the scene was once quite awkward, making the audience happy.
On the other side, Peter's college physics professor, Otto, was giving a nuclear physics course.
The two discussed controllable nuclear fusion in class, and Otto invited Peter to be his assistant to participate in controllable nuclear fusion research.
Harry Osborn was also present; he took over his father's enterprise and funded Professor Otto's research.
