The Amazing Spider-Man Crane Scene Set To Deadpool & Wolverine's "Like A Prayer" In Emotional Edit

   

The impacts of Deadpool & Wolverine on the Marvel Cinematic Universe do not appear to be done anytime soon, especially after the release of a new fan-edited scene from The Amazing Spider-Man. While Spider-Man was not one of the Marvel cameos in Deadpool & Wolverine, the two heroes have appeared in the comics together, and there are some similarities in their humor and style. Following this, it makes sense to see the successes of Deadpool & Wolverine influence how audiences think about other heroes, including the beloved Marvel webslinger.

Setting this to the emotional music from Deadpool & Wolverine is an effective choice. One commenter responded, "This is how you get a grown man to cry", due to the heavy emotion the scene illicits. Another user expressed having "literal chills watching this". The sweeping growth of the music mirrors Peter's emotional journey here, and clearly helps to make the scene even more effective.

Why The Amazing Spider-Man's Crane Scene Is One Of Andrew Garfield's Best

The Amazing Spider-Man films are often seen as lesser than both the Tom Holland and the Tobey Maguire films, but they do still have a great deal of perfect Spider-Man moments. The Amazing Spider-Man had some entertaining and effective scenes, including its hilarious Stan Lee cameo during a classroom fight and this stirring crane scene. Following a few nods to New York in the Maguire films, this effective scene sees a weakened Spider-Man needing to lean on his city for help. With an emotive performance by Garfield, the scene stands out even to this day as a classic superhero movie moment.

Following a stirring performance in The Social Network, Andrew Garfield's casting as Spider-Man was an exciting prospect. In the films, too, he shone especially as Peter Parker, where his charm, wit, and charisma created a more comic-accurate version of the hero than the previous iteration played by Tobey Maguire. Much of his acting ability is displayed in this scene, which shows a deeply humanized version of the wall-crawling hero and his relationship with his city.

The stylistic choices of Deadpool & Wolverine add some incredible flair to the film, and using those same components elsewhere appears to still be effective. Just like how James Gunn and Taika Waititi were able to effectively weave pop hits inseparably into the stories of Thor: Ragnarok and Guardians of the Galaxy, the Madonna song "Like a Prayer" will now likely be unable to be untied from Deadpool & Wolverine. Hearing this song play in the Amazing Spider-Man scene speaks to the emotional response the song can create, underlining just how perfect a choice it was for the MCU movie.
