Norman: touches food Aunt May: e s t a b l i s h e s d o m i n a n c e

Aunt May in this scene breaks my heart. She's trying so hard to have a "perfect" Thanksgiving. To her, the perfect Thanksgiving would be in her own home, with Peter and Ben. But Ben's dead and Peter doesn't live in her house anymore so she has to make due, and she is still trying to have control over everything (being in charge of the food, slapping Norman, calling out Harry, trying to cure Peter...etc) only for it to spiral out of control. And a few scenes afterwards she's praying next to a picture of Uncle Ben and then Green Goblin attacks her. Poor woman.

I live for Aunt May slapping Norman's hand

Pizza Time! no wait, Turkey Time!

Looks like HiTop took his holiday video ideas... *BACK TO FORMULA*

Also a very subtle line by Norman. "Your mother was beautiful, too. They're all beautiful until they're snarling after your trust fund like a pack of ravening wolves." This is the only time that Harry's mother was ever addressed in the series, and in a way Norman is just projecting his failure onto his son. Also, the implication of multiple wives or women is very telling about his character.

The original Spider-Man is heavily underrated.

Being in film and fashion, THANK YOU for giving attention to the importance of color in the outfits of films. So many people gloss over this when it's all intentional. This is one of my favorite film scenes. No action needed...just pure cinema goodness. Happy Thanksgiving

Me and my family actually decided we will watch the Raimi trilogy on thanksgiving in honor of Stan Lee. Edit: After we watch the Lions (my fave team) get their asses kicked.

Hollywood been on a Raimi withdrawal for far too long now...

"...While Norman is trying to suppress the goblin from straight up murking Peter at the table". I nearly died when I heard that 🤣🤣🤣

This video was a surprise to be sure but a welcome one

Weird point about the sexual tension between Peter and Norman but other than that, great video!

The color of the outfits and what the characters want are perfect examples of visual metaphors.

I'm thankful for you making the first Spiderman film even MORE entertaining than it already is.

That stuff about the clothes was English teacher level shit

Norman Osborn/Green Goblin: You're pathetically predictable, like a moth to the flame. What about my generous proposal? Are you in or are you out? Peter Parker/Spider-Man: It's you who's out, Gobbie. Out of your mind. Norman Osborn/Green Goblin: Wrong answer.

Everytime I get depressed, I get myself high on Sam Rami.

Theres legit so much tension and high stakes in the one simple dinner scene. Another example of great writing

I’m a simple man, i see a HiTop Films spiderman vid i click

Spider-Man is the perfect Halloween Thanksgiving Christmas Valentine’s Day St Patrick day Easter Canada day 4th of July Independence Day Martin Luther king day Movie Fight me on that

In another installment of "HiTop gets me to Appreciate the Sam Raimi Spiderman Films Even More," i never realized the black dress correlation

RIP Stan Lee

If just that one scene is masterfully made, think about how much more knowledge can be found from the entire trilogy.

Yo so...I don't know how much this'll mean to you, but I wanted to let you know that you have risen to #1 of my video essayists. Your comedic timing, editing prowess, and godlike self-awareness; brilliance. You pay attention to the subtleties and big pictures of the story being told (from the story beats to the score), and that means a lot to me as a fellow aspiring storyteller. I figure there may be some playing up of your insecurities in your videos for dramatic effect (which is great), but you're not a hack. You are not a hack, Alex. And trust me, when I get money that I can actually spend how I'd like, I will become a patron. Because I believe in you. I believe in your dreams because if I didn't, I'd have no right to believe in my own. You're a legend in the making Alex. Thank you for these videos. Thank you for your care of the medium and continued pursuit of your dreams (no, goals). You deserve every subscriber you have and all the ones to come. You are an inspiration. Peace :)

honestly I re-watch a lot of your videos all the time because they’re so well written and put together. I feel bad they have to be superhero themed just to get views, I hope you guys get more credit man, you deserve it!!!

That awkward moment when you have 10k extra views because it has Spider-Man in it.

I love and adore this entire trilogy. Still,to this day,my favorite superhero/comic book movies.

Great video! Insert clever Sam Raimi Spider-Man reference here.

I miss the old Spider-Man movies.... You know, back when a movie was just a movie on its own and actually cared about the characters and the big dangers were personal issues instead of another universe ending device

This is literally my favorite channel on KZfaq

norman: *touches food* aunt may: i'm about to end this man's whole career

I love this trilogy it introduced me to spiderman

Spider-Man is a Perfect Movie

I keep forgetting how Kirsten looked so pretty in the second half of this film

Hi-Top! I just wanted to thank you for your excellent videos. I've been giving your videos in my Advanced English classes in order to show my students how to properly construct their argumentative essays by demonstrating how well you defend your points, regardless of the topic. Keep it up! Much love from Puerto Rico.

It’s also just a perfect movie... NUFF’ SAID

Currently almost thanksgiving, watching KZfaq, and I come across this video “Looks like just in the nick of time!”

I can’t handle all this quality content by HiTop Films.

I never Comment. I am commenting today because I love your videos. Keep it up my friend.

This scene has more emotional content than any other moment with holland or Garfield. Also helps when you've got Defoe

Spiderman 1 and 2 are masterpieces. Raimi is a genius.

The new Titans episode about Jason Todd released last weekend. While the show has yet to solve all its problems I think they portrayed Jason almost perfectly and I loved his scenes with Dick showing their similarities and differences. I can’t wait for you to share your thoughts on it and if your own concepts for a Jason Todd series had similar ideas. Also, IMO, the flashbacks of young Dick expressing desire of revenge combined with the reveal of SPOILER what he did that resulted in Tony Zucco’s death which lead to Zucco’s Family nearly being killed with his son coming back to haunt him, and that Jason himself has his own demons separate from Bruce’s influence shows that Dick’s view of Bruce is obviously biased and in a way Dick’s method of not accepting his own demons. Bruce himself took him in so he won’t be consumed by vengeance, his actions of violence, like Jason’s are his own. That tracker thing was a bit paranoid though. They seem to be going for a more post Zero Hour/pre Infinite Crisis super paranoid Batman. Still, I hope my analysis is correct in that Bruce means best and did his best for Dick (which Dick even admits) and that Dick will realize it.

My favourite Stan Lee cameo right there. Love it.

only Hitop can make me fall in love with a movie again just on a video essay on one scene

These videos are so good. Happy Thanksgiving Alex! Thank you for giving us the best videos on KZfaq! 🙏🍗

Damn so much went into this scene, never knew that...

You probably already know, but in case you forget from time to time, I want to remind you, Alex, that your work is absolutely phenomenal and I love every minute of it, and surely, you will make a name for yourself that will be said and heard by millions, any day now, or some day soon. Happy Thanksgiving 🕷

"Enough said." --Stan Lee

I always look forward to your uploads, you make such good, well edited, funny and insightful videos. I hope you make it big. You deserve it.

Impressive video, your parents must be very proud.

Did you say "Peter comes flying in fresh out of the GIANT EAGLE .." Pittsburgh Represent! #GiantEagle #igglevideo

Hey hitop, just wanna say I love you and your videos.

Dude... You got me inn fucking tears. Why do all your Spider-Man's analysis get me like that? It's just so beautiful. You make me realize how much of a masterpiece and a classic these movies are and how meaningful scenes - as simple as a offering a piece of chocolate cake or celebrating Thanksgiving - are. Sony and Marvel should really be grateful to Raimi's work, the guys is really talented (he literally made the first official Superhero movie, if we don't count the 70's Superman).

Great video. More people should know about you, you're never afraid to say what's on your mind, and I respect that.

And this my friends, is why this Spider-Man & 2, are still the best spidey films.

8 days later and Stan's passing still breaks my heart. He really was like a friend to all of us that grew up with his characters.

I love these videos. I never thought of Spiderman like this.

TOBEY MAGUIRE IS THE BEST SPIDERMAN

Undoubtedly one of your best videos so far, man. Hilarious, insightful, and a nice emotional touch at the end. Keep it up brother.

that cameo with that music...my heart

I love your videos so much, so many people overlook the meaning behind Tobeys Spider-Man movies but you really capture the essence of them and it couldn’t warm my heart more. Keep up the great work

Hitop makes the perfect videos...Mainly the topic selection like Batman's No Kill rule or something rare like Piece of Cake in Spider-Man 2...This video is in that league... And the Smallville Juxtaposition...

Wait, that Halloween hootenanny video didn't get a lot of views? WTF why??? I loved it probably watched it like 7 times

Your ending speech about Stan Lee made me tear up for a second

Every time I always said “Spider-Man is a great thanksgiving movie” no one believed me as a kid. Thank you for solidifying my reasoning my man

Man, I dont usually comment on youtube videos, but I genuinely hope you achieve your dream bro. I see the love u got for these characters, i have the same. Keep up what ya doing bro, vids are great.

What kind of apartment has the oven right next to the front door?

"'nuff said." god that last bit hit me hard

This is why I love these movies, they're so layered in characterization and symbolism. These movies and Stan Lee have inspired me in so many ways.

I'm waiting for the second part of the Titans, thank you for the video,you're cool!

Also last comment,never knew clothes meant so much in movoes

2:41 The thing he calls Peter lol

It's the best Spider-Man movie, it always will be for me. I grew up on it, watching it at least twice a month for 8-9 years.

Rosie, I love this boy!

The holiday specials are so fye!🥖🥖🔥🔥🔥

This just absolutely blew my mind. Good job on figuring that all out

If I'm thankful for anything it's you Alex! Keep up the great work!

Oh my I never put that much attention to that scene but u my Man, u blew my mind

Or just, y'know, the perfect movie

Brilliant analysis, really love the way you broke down that scene with the costuming, great work keep it up :)

I love your videos so much you know good movies and I hope to see a future with u actually writing and directing a Big budget movie

I love it when you go full raimi fanboy. Woooooo!

Happy Thanksgiving Alex.

Great work! Your videos are educational and inspirational! Keep it up

Alex I love you’re videos keep it up man your hard work is appreciated 👉😎👍

HO....LY....FRICKIN HECK. I aspire to be able to analyse a short scene that seems to have little significance to be one of the best scenes of the trilogy

Great video man! I never thought of it that way, you always teach me something new with everyone one of your videos

That cameo in spiderman 3 is so powerful at such a time like now. I mean, I never really thought about it when I would watch spiderman 3, but it seems almost certain that Stan wanted one cameo to stand out beyond the rest, and it was that such cameo that will have people forever thinking about him years after he has past away.

The moment peters blood drop hit the flood my heart sank you’re right Alex this scene establishes the characters relationships and intentions by putting everyone significant around an innocent dinner table table now that’s good filmmaking

I always watch spider man during thanksgiving....were twins

Is it possible maybe sone day you can talk about Black Panther? Just a suggestion. Huuuuge fan!

The entire Spider-Man vs. Green Goblin thing in every comic, movie, tv show, its all sooooo suspenseful and tense and so awesome! Like in the spectacular Spider-Man, Peter is torn between his life and really his friends and has so many problems dealing with his life and the goblin. It's one of the reasons why i think the green goblin is the #1 deadliest spidey villian in terms of Peter's and friends.

Just subbed. Its great to be able to find new meaning in a movie that you didn't fully understand as a kid. You're pointing out things I never would have caught!

Spider Man is a perfect Thanksgiving movie. But is Thanksgiving a good Spider Man movie?

Hey HiTop films. I know you probably wont see this. But where daredevil has just been cancelled, could you please do a Daredevil video essay?

Honestly man, you’re video got me feeling some things, Amazing video essay!

Thank you for making this, been missing the Spider-Man videos man
