To be honest, I remember watching Toby Maguire’s Spiderman when I was like 10 years old and then leaving the theater to go play a little league game and I felt like I was on top of the world and was literally a super hero myself lol. And Toby’s Spiderman was such an average Joe of a dude that I felt like being in a movie like that felt more accessible. Since then I’ve had many more “cinefile” type movies that have inspired me (The Duplass Brothers, Tarantino, Wes Anderson, Nolan), but it was probably that Spiderman that set the wheels in motion.
