People don't like power when it's not theirs, and they like it even less when they keep falling behind. This is the underlying dynamic that drives Europe's discomfort about the United States: a widening gap between No. 1 and the rest. How is it articulated? The script is practically boilerplate. In polite government circles, the mantra is "unilateralism." Translation: "Those Americans throw their weight around. They respect neither treaties nor traditions. They don't care about their allies unless they need some special forces for Tora Bora. They bestride the world as if it were the Rose...

...legs became almost a high kick, while her hands scythed the air so ostentatiously she was nearly voguing (the dance style she made famous). Even when she relaxed she rarely seemed to do more than speak the lines with generalized emotion - you could almost see her thinking through the script. There were whoops and cheers from the fans, understandably. It was Madonna they came to see, and Madonna she always remained. So what if it was amateur hour?

...cling to Maguire as Spider-Man, it's unlikely they'll embrace his quirky persona in standard leading-man roles. He simply isn't as warm as Tom Hanks or as dashing as Tom Cruise. "I just want to make good movies," says Maguire. "If there's a script I like with a character I like and a filmmaker I like, I would do the movie. I'm not really concerned about money.

Recipe for a May blockbuster: teen misfit falls in love, disobeys a sympathetic father figure, battles monsters and stumbles toward a complicated manhood. We doubt that the Spider-Man people swapped script notes with George Lucas and his Star Wars: Episode II--Attack of the Clones team; still, the similarities are striking.
