10 Biggest Fan Service Moments In Comic Book Movies
10. The Classic Theme - Spider-Man: Homecoming
Is there any superhero, across any comic book brand or property, that can compete with Spider-Man for sheer popularity? The character's longevity, and continued success with kids and adults alike suggest that there isn't.
Even after both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield brought Peter Parker to life in five movies over 12 years, Spidey's introduction to the MCU left audiences with the kind of excitement few others could generate. He broke the internet when he appeared in the trailer for Civil War, and in 2017 finally headlined his own MCU movie.
Anticipation for Spider-Man: Homecoming was already through the roof, and audiences flocked to cinemas to see Tom Holland in action. There wasn't much director Jon Watts could have done to get fans anymore pumped, but he managed it before the movie ever properly began.
Instead of the typical Marvel fanfare, over the opening montage played an orchestral version of the classic Spider-Man theme song that would be recognised by anyone, anywhere. Did it improve the movie at all? Not really, but was there anyone watching who didn't get goosebumps from the score? Absolutely not.
