Spider Man 2 Rocked and YOU KNOW IT!

93%. So sayeth Rotten Tomatoes, and they don't get much wrong. Capitalizing on the first film's Spidermania, Spider Man 2 went even deeper into the storyline, enriched its characters, amped the FX, and delivered a villain worthy of iconic status. 93% sayeth RT... Kick Ass says I! Much like the deeper and more complex X-Men 2, Spidey 2 was far superior to its predecessor and was ultimately the best in trilogy that started strong, got even stronger, and then blew it all on a third film that tried to fit too many characters and events at the sacrifice of better dialogue, characters, and that little thing called plot (and in X-men's unforgivable case, continuity).

Of course, miss Flower disagrees. But I challenge her (or anyone else for that matter) to provide good enough reason why I shouldn't think Spider Man 2 was the best of the trilogy and one of the best comic book movies of all time. I mean, Rotten Tomatoes can't be wrong can it?
