Spiderman was based on Marvel comics character "Peter Parker", a high-school nerd student, who was accidentally bitten by a runaway, genetically modified, radioactive spider in a laboratory during their class's educational field trip.

Peter was orphaned as a child by an old couple, was bullied in school and was too shy to confess his admiration to his neighbor & schoolmate, Mary Jane Watson.

Things change when he discovered that he have acquired clear vision, great reflexes, precognitive sense, can stick to the wall & ceilings and can produce webs through his wrist.

Enough been said, who doesn't know Spiderman anyway? And who would never want this upside down kiss done by Toby Maguire and Kirsten Dunst hmm?
