The upside-down kiss between Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man and Kirsten Dunst's Mary Jane Watson was one of the most memorable scenes in the 2002 version of the film.
Now fans of the franchise have the chance to decide if new Spidey Andrew Garfield and his love-interest Emma Stone can rival it.
A new preview of the upcoming blockbuster, released on July 3 in the UK and US, gives a tantalising glimpse of the pair in a clinch.

Emma, who is dating her co-star in real life, plays Gwen Stacy - the first love of Spider-Man's alter ego Peter Parker.
The 4-minute clip opens with a dramatic rescue as Garfield's Spidey saves a young boy from a burning car as it dangles precariously from a bridge.
Struggling against the flames, our hero hands his mask to the terrified child, telling him it will 'make him strong' before webbing him to safety.

The clip shows off the webbed wonder's superpowers with some no-holds-barred action scenes, and he spends plenty of time airborne, battling baddies and dangling by a thread.
Given its huge budget and high-profile stars, the 2012 reboot of the Spider-Man brand is sure to face intense scrutiny upon its release, but it's obvious no expense has been spared on the special effects.
It was announced yesterday that the film will premiere in India on June 29, four days before it hits British screens.
'Each of the Spider-Man franchise films has broken records on its release in this territory,' Sony Pictures India MD Kercy Daruwala said in a statement.

As befits Spider-Man's dual identity, the preview also focuses on the all-too-human angst he suffers as Peter Parker.
'This life is not an easy one,' Garfield's Spider-Man intones.
'I've made enemies. Powerful enemies. Put those I love in danger. But when your past is a mystery, how do you ever stop looking for the truth?'

Lovers of the original Marvel comics will be pleased to see their hero has retained his sense of humour. Dodging a blade, he tells one car thief: 'You've found my weakness - it's small knives!'
There are hints that the quest for answers may find fulfillment, as Welsh actor Rhys Ifans - who plays villain The Lizard - promises the young man the truth about his absent father, Richard Parker.
Ifans co-stars as scientist-turned-reptile Dr Curt Connors, who longs for the human race to be replaced with super reptiles.
With two months still to go, the film's legions of fans will have to wait to see if he succeeds.
