    Spidefer-Man 2

    It turns out there have been so many spi-deferred and cancelled movie projects, they couldn't all fit into one episode. Sol picks up the mantle from last week, providing an account of Spider-Man movies that never happened, starting with the conclusion of the saga of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 4 and followed by Sony's increasingly embarrassing attempts to compete with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
