!!First Film Trivia:
* ActorAllusion: The novelization features a part with Mary Jane and Harry discussing the book ''Literature/InterviewWithTheVampire'', where MJ remarks that she "saw [[Film/InterviewWithTheVampire the movie]]. The little kid in it creeped me out." KirstenDunst, of course, was that little kid.
* DevelopmentHell: Plans for a Spider-man feature film had been in the works since the '80s, with Cannon Films and director Tobe Hooper attached to the project at one point.
* HeyItsThatGuy:
** [[Creator/BruceCampbell Ash]] from ''Franchise/EvilDead'' ended up naming Spider-Man
** Maximilian Fargas is portrayed by Gerry Becker, also known as [[Film/ManOnTheMoon Andy Kaufman's dad]] and [[Series/{{Angel}} Wolfram and Hart's Nathan Reed.]]
** It's a good thing that Peter never had his head cut off in the middle of the desert by [[FearAndLoathingInLasVegas drug crazed journalists]], otherwise he'd never be able to stop [[BoondockSaints Special Agent Smecker]] from killing [[InterviewWithTheVampire Claudia]], who apparently finally grew up.
** Looks like Wrestling/RandySavage has been trying his hand at the independent circuits as Bonesaw. Wonder how it's treating him?
** [[TheHelp Octavia L. Spencer]] signed up Peter to fight Bonesaw.
** And [[UmJammerLammy Lammy]] is a police officer at the scene of Uncle Ben's murder.
** [[WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra Tenzin]] is trying to find pictures of Spider-Man.
** [[Film/TheHungerGames Effie Trinket]] apparently started off as a secretary, but still had weirdly beautiful hair...
** [[{{Literature/FlowersForAlgernon}} Charly]] was able to get average intelligence, work as an electrician, and be a father figure to [[{{Film/Seabiscuit}} Red]].
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: HughJackman was scheduled to make a {{Cameo}} appearance as {{Wolverine}}, and even showed up in New York to film his scene. The plan fell through at the last minute when the production staff was unable to find the Wolverine costume from the first ''Film/XMen1'' movie.

* CreatorsFavorite: Jim Starlin did not create Spider-Man, but he's expressed fondness of him and inserts him into most of his cosmic based stories, even though Spidey is generally considered a "street-level" hero.

to:

* BeamMeUpScotty: The infamous "With great power comes great responsibility" quote from one of the early issues is usually attributed to Uncle Ben. While it wasn't long before it was {{retcon}}ned to be from him, the actual first appearance of the quote was in a narration box.
** Not only that, the exact quote is "with great power, there must also come great responsibility". Like ''[[Disney/TheLionKing matata hakuna]]'', this was likely changed so that it was more marketable as a motto.
** It wasn't even a motto in the original comics until somewhere in the 1990's. It was just a phrase that appeared once, but, through the film, became so well-known that Peter has taken to quoting it.
*** The 1990's cartoon ended up DRILLING this into our heads. By contrast, in ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'' we went through practically a whole season before it showed up.

* RealitySubtext: Carlie Cooper is named for Creator/JoeQuesada's daughter.
** During Marvel's 70th anniversary, it's revealed that Ann Weying (not Eddie Brock) was supposed to be Venom, but Jim Shooter didn't think a woman was "dangerous enough" to go toe-to-toe with Spider-Man. The original She-Venom costume was recycled for Earth X's storylines, with May Parker's variation of Venom resembling a [[ImpossiblyCoolClothes Black Widow spider.]]
** Actually, David Michelinie, who created Venom, simply stated in interviews that Venom was meant to be a woman, who lost her husband and baby during a Spider-Man related incident. There was no mention of Venom being Ann Weying (Eddie's ex-wife).



* ScienceMarchesOn: Now that we know more about the dangers of radiation, modern versions of the story typically have the spider be genetically engineered rather than radioactive. The radiation, [[GrandfatherClause still the source of his powers in the main continuity]] (well, [[ComicBook/JMSSpiderMan that or magic]]), has caused some complications as well. For example, it caused some complications for Mary Jane when she became pregnant with his kid. At one point, Aunt May needed a blood transfusion, and Peter donated his blood... only for his aunt to become incredibly ill from it soon after, because he hadn't taken into account the fact that his blood is radioactive.

* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: During Danny Fingeroth's time as editor, he came up with an ongoing plotline of Spider-Man's parents being alive all along (which began in ASM #365 and ended in ASM #388). However, he gave the story to writer David Michelinie, and couldn't or wouldn't tell him where the plotline was going. Fingeroth didn't even know if the parents were real or fake in some way. Michelinie had to treat the situation ambiguously until it was finally decided that they were robot spies all along.
