- The first of three nominations is the high-school sequence from catching Mary Jane and the lunch tray, reportedly done in 156 takes without CGI, through the fight with Flash. — Charles Holmes
- The high-schoolers look far too old, which is excused as the norm of the Dawson's Creek and Beverly Hills, 90210 era.
- The final choice is the training montage: designing the costume, testing web shooters and learning his strength, so that reaching the suit after about an hour feels earned. — Charles Holmes
- The first montage of him in the suit and the power-learning sequence are also nominated.
- The first Green Goblin fight at the gala is praised for enhanced hand-to-hand combat, surprising for a director not known for action.
- The final fight in the abandoned house is nominated because its punches feel real compared with heavily CGI modern films.
- The Thanksgiving dinner is nominated for the Goblin's leering at Mary Jane and Aunt May and as the pivotal moment he learns Peter's identity from the glider cut.
- The other final choice is the kiss in the rain after he lowers himself down to Mary Jane, called the film's most iconic scene, very romantic, and reportedly an MTV best-kiss winner.
