Make out with me you will

I shouldn't have laughed, but there were a few good spoof moments. Having been a teen in 2002, this just hit all the right spots.

Funny but overrated

First of all this is very short, which is the point. For that reason it is quite good and acceptable at what it's trying to do. However, it is NOT as funny as Jack Black/Sarah Michelle Gellar's spoof of THE LORD OF THE RINGS. This is a bit lamer and more immature with the whole upside-down-kiss/Yoda reference.

Jack Black is a funny guy and as a short this is pretty funny, but let's be reasonable: This is nothing great and I've seen funnier pre-show skits for the Academy Awards.

That's not to say this isn't any good, but people are claiming it's better than it really is. At least...I think so.

Hilarious short!

Little vignettes such as this are what make awards shows tolerable to watch. Jack Black is fantastic. Being the exact antithesis of Spider-man, it is hilarious to watch him parody the web-spinning super-hero.

This and the "Lord of the rings" spoof were the show highlights of The 2002 MTV Movie Awards.

Considering the general decline in the quality of our motion pictures, it would be wonderful if the theaters would stave our hunger for entertainment by playing shorts like this intermittently through the barrage of advertisements preceding the actual movies. Great work! Keep it coming Jack Black!

Late Opinion: Loved it

Tenacious D and stuff like this short show us all why Jack Black is going to be huge. As a big fan of the movie, Black made me laugh a lot. Gellar, not much, but this is all about Black. From his reenactment of Tobey Maguire discovering his new self in the mirror to the webbing gags to the modified CGI Spider-Man (with a slightly bigger gut) to the kiss at the end with the odd Yoda reference, Black was at his best. Could've done without Gellar, but I guess you still needed a female for the parody (could've done without Wonder Woman; not funny and no Marvel). The shorts for this particular MTV Movie Awards show were top-notch and better than this year's.

Another funny one

This is another one of those short movies made for the MTV Movie Awards. In this one Tobey Maguire becomes Jack Black as Spider-Man after he is bitten by a spider that had Jack Black's head. Sarah Michelle Gellar is the 'love-interest'. Some very nice jokes including one with Yoda make this a hilarious short.

Trivia
Sarah Michelle Gellar can be seen topless in a wet shirt, this is similar to Kristen Dunst being topless during the actual movie for that scene.
