10 Years After the First Spider-Man Movie, It’s Time for a Reboot
Summer 2012 is shaping up to be fun for superhero fans. In May, Marvel's The Avengers crushed all competition. On July 3, The Amazing Spider-Man swings into theaters with a new cast. Spider-Man's first appearance was in Amazing Fantasy #15, published in August 1962—almost exactly 50 years ago. We don't need to say "spoiler alert" to tell you that the wall-crawler went on to fame and fortune in multiple mediums, including the first Spider-Man movie in 2002. Will this latest group of actors be as amazing as before? Read on, true believer. By Brett Singer

Willem Dafoe as Norman Osborn/The Green Goblin in Spider-Man (2002)
Willem Dafoe was extremely well cast as Norman Osborn, the man who becomes the Green Goblin. Dafoe is a great actor who can chew scenery when the role calls for it, and Osborn/Green Goblin is without a doubt one of those roles. For example, he thinks he's two different people. Also, homicidal maniac. Did we mention the character is a major nut job?
