CONSIDERATION OVER DAVID LINDSAY ABAIRE'S SCREENPLAY OF THE SAME
NAME.

We open up in the sky. A feather falls to the ground, just as
it does a slew of bank robbers pour out, as they look up the
Spider-Man swings down gracefully landing in a spider like
position. He beats down the criminals. As the cops arrive the
web head swings into an alley way. He removes his mask,
revealing to us to be Peter Parker.

Parker enters the DB to reveal that JJ has been removed as


editor, and Adriano Tombs has taken his place. Tombs is a
hardened bold and scared man who also doesn’t have a sense of
humour. By night Tombs turns into The Vulture and begins to
rob many banks across the city. By morning the headline
spreads over the city.

Spider-Man begins to investigate the case with a utility


belt that is equipped with a mini crime case. He yanks out a
small magnifying glass and starts to go over the scene of the
crime. He notices the feather, he picks it up. Spider-Man
swings in by the ESU university at the ding of mid-night
scrolling over the feather, using a DNA scanner machine,
Parker finds out that the DNA belongs to Adriano Tombs.

The next day Mary Jane call’s Peter for a lunch to meet her
real father. Peter arrives at the Louvre kitchen with a suit
not clearly fit for him accompanied with a stash of roses. He
drops them at the site of her father, Adriano Tombs. Both
Peter and Tombs shake hands, this being an awkward scene we
move our cut to.....Peter and MJ’s new penthouse apartment.
The two are arguing over the idea that the man can’t be
trusted and that in fact he is The Vulture. Mary Jane leaves
in anger.

At the downtown Electro Corp. Tired worker Max Dillon is


working on a nuclear power capsule when suddenly with a crack
of thunder....The Vulture swoops in. Dillon tries to protect
himself with a hand gun but is smashed into a nuclear power
diode in which erupts him and itself into sparks. Vulture
steals the capsule. On exit, Spider-Man swings in and an
Ariel fight scene begins. The fight swings from state tower’s
all the way into the Empire State Building. Vulture grabs a
hostage, but the spider-man shoots a web that chokes the
flying villain. The hostage is saved. Vulture threatens once
more before fully escaping.

Later at the Bekil Hospital. Max awakens with his body being
confined to a gigantic plastic tube in which stores his
energy and deflects it. He is being watched by a set of
scientists and professors who stand behind a protective
barrier. Dillon in rage melts through the tube and shocks
dead all the scientists. On escape Max picks up a newspaper
heading with The Vulture on it, and melts it with his bare
hands.

Meanwhile at Tombs’s lair. The evil man is fixing his


damaged suit, just as he gets down to the problem with his
gigantic metallic wings Mary Jane enters. To her shock runs
away. Tombs does not react.
Your Last Name / 2.

At the DB in the next morning. Peter rushes in with some


more photos of Spider-Man’s battle with The Vulture. Tombs
scrunches up the pictures with his hands telling Peter that
they are of no use to him or anyone. As an argument erupts a
hooded figure in a semi green and yellow tight outfit bursts
out in electricity in the corner of the press blowing up
tables and desks. Peter quickly maneuvers with his webs
creating a steel desk shield on the editors front door. Tombs
notices and immediately jumps out the window. As he glides in
the air, the steel wings pop out and Tombs swings into lower.
Peter now has to deal with Max. Peter turns around to see
that Tombs has disappeared, and thus transforming into Spider-
Man. As Max threatens an innocent in the corner, Spider-Man
jumps over the shield and taunts Max.

A fight erupts between the two. Spider-Man notices that he


can’t fiscally touch the man so he ducks out the fight, to
his embarrassment a crowd of watchers and children laugh at
the hero as he has a burnt hole on his buttock area.

Later Tombs is hiding in a park tunnel or to change scene to


lair. When suddenly a streak of energy glazes over revealing
to us to be....Max. Instead of killing Adriano, Max agrees to
join him defeat Spider-Man under the condition that Tombs
feeds his hunger with the stolen capsule.

Peter goes over to Aunt May’s. The two have a sweet


conversation that turns rather bitter towards the end. Peter
admits to being Spider-Man and that it was his fault he
didn’t do anything to prevent Uncle Ben’s death. May cries as
Peter leaves.

The next day Mary Jane calls Peter over to the park. She
tells Peter that she should have listened to him and every
word he has said for the last few years. But she also tells
him how little she can stay with him anymore because of his
self righteousness. She brakes up with Peter and tells him
that she is going to live in Los Angeles.

As Peter sits atop a building at night drowning in self


pity. A mysterious Black catted figure is seen breaking into
a diamond storage house. Peter throws on his mask and swings
up to the storage house. We move in, to see that it is a
woman with sexy curves and white hair. Spider-Man tries to
stop her, but at the sight of her is spun into a dream state.
As he is in wonder shock, The Cat pulls out a grapple gun and
fires it at the web head hooking him by the shoulder and
thrusting him into a wall. She then tries the same trick but
is violently grabbed by the web head. A chase now begins
across the city between cat and spider. Eventually we end up
at a dock where a group of crooks are planning an arms deal.
Together the two team up to thrash the crooks. The spider and
The cat smile at each other after they defeat the crooks and
kiss each other passionately. They then make love in Peters
apartment.

Peter awakens to find out that The Cat is showering. He


approaches the shower to see her butt naked body. Peter joins
Your Last Name / 3.

her as we cut out. Later Felicia Hardy and Peter are


discussing they’re plan to tackle Adriano Tombs. Felicia
mentions that she has a personal vendetta against him but
doesn’t say what.

Meanwhile at the lair. Max and Tombs are discussing they’re


plan to defeat Spider-Man. Adriano suggests going after Peter
Parker because he can sense it. But Max suggest’s to go for
his loved one’s. Tombs exclaims for Peters Aunt.

At Aunt May’s. A knock at the door, May get’s up thinking


it’s Peter. As she opens Max stings her on the neck knocking
her out. She falls into his arms.

Transmission throughout the city including times square are


filled with blackness. It turns out that the entire New York
Area is under power outage. Peter suits up as Spider-Man
while Felicia suits up as The Cat. The two help people who
are clouded in darkness and stuck underneath rubble from a
gas explosion. As the fire department arrive. The two head
down to the Main Power Facility.

As they arrive at the main power center. BOOM, a giant hyper


Max smashes out from the ground. His body is over twenty feet
and is now just pure energy and rage. Both Cat and Spider-Man
hide behind vehicles in which get instantly blasted away.
Peter notices a tower of energy pillars and tells Cat to
distract Max. Cat thinks of the only thing she’s really good
for...she slightly takes off her top to reveal her cleavage
attracting hyper Max. She leads Max in between the power
tower conducers where Spider-Man hits the switch in so
releasing more energy overloading Max. Dillon then turns into
a gigantic ball of energy and begins to absorb all the power
in the city. As the authorities and military arrive on the
scene Max explodes and like a miniature nuclear bomb causes
mass destruction on the east side of New York.

Spider-Man and The Cat hang out on a peer as they watch the
explosion, Peter feels guilty that his plan caused the deaths
of many police officers. Cat cheers him up before shooting
him in the back with a dart gun.

We dissolve to a destructed warehouse. Peter awakens to see


The Cat and Vulture next to each other. Cat explains how she
was forced into it by Vulture and that he had her sister
hostage. Peter brakes free from chaining, just as he is about
to attack Vulture. We notice that the villain has a switch in
his hand, we move up to see that Aunt May and Cats sister are
tied up to explosives. Vulture threatens to press the button.
On this very intense scene Peter spins a web that grabs the
switch, Cat then kicks the villain in the chest thrusting him
into a wall. Cat disarms Vulture while Spider-Man saves Aunt
May and Cat’s sister. Captain Stacy and his team arrive on
the scene to find Vulture tied upside down with a note
attached saying “From your friendly neighbourhood spider-
man.”
Your Last Name / 4.

That same night Cat apologizes to Peter. Peter tells her that
he understands and that he will leave the duties of the city
in her hands. They kiss once more and Peter swings away.

The next morning Peter visits Aunt May. He tells Aunt May
that he is sorry for everything that she’s endured from him.
Aunt May forgives Peter and advises him that being Spider-Man
is always his choice, and he can always decide what he wants
to do with it. On his way out he bumps into Mary Jane. She
tells Peter that she still wants to be with him, but Peter
refuses and walks away.

Peter now stands at the edge of the Brooklyn bridge. In his


hands the Spider-Man mask. Peter stares as it deeply feeling
a sense of regret for being Spider-Man for so many years, he
also feels a sense of happiness. Peter tosses the mask off
the side of the bridge. It lands in the river below and our
camera closes on the eye of the mask as we fade out.

THE END.
