Oh, is it already time for full anti-Raimi Spider-Man backlash? They grow up so fast.

I'll watch Raimi's first two Spider-Mans a dozen times each before I sit through ASM again.

wow didn't realise having an opinion made me dumb

I think you should expect a lot of people to disagree with your opinion. What are you looking for in a Spiderman movie that you haven't gotten?

I'm personally concerned with how Rhino looks right now. I want them to avoid realistic interpretations and just really do justice to the source material.
 
looks stupid..#1 was just god awful

Eh, I think 1 has some redeeming qualities that get lost in multiple balls in the air that the movie was trying to juggle. I hope that these qualities are a bit more apparent in the sequel.

Honestly, I like that it seems to be going for a more light hearted approach with this hilarious Rhino caricature. It's what I wanted in a sense. (Though not for Rhino, but Ill take it)

Fuck all dem idiots brah. Spider-Man 2 is by far the greatest comic book movie I've seen. Only competition since has been the first two Nolan batman films and X2

It's embarrassing how far all the other films have fell short in comparison. People can keep making fun of Tobey Maguire's struggle face. But it beats the hell out of the struggle scripts that marvel and DC have pooped out

Marvel is taking a step in the right direction now tho with Shane black, James Gunn and now Edgar Wright da gawd

I don't know why I bother coming into these threads. I should just Google the news and not be faced with a load of bad opinions.

Raimi Spider-Mans were balls.

So balls.

On the actual news: I thought this was pretty much a given?

So, I've seen those pictures before, but...How are they doing Rhino in this movie? Does he have a mech suit? Are they gonna cg in a rhino body? Is he just a dude that calls himself the Rhino?

I haven't seen Spider-Man 3 or the previous Spider-Man film but these pictures have convinced me to see the next one.

S3 was terrible, but ASM was pretty fun, you should see it. Not as good as S1, but, definitely an acceptable reboot. Besides a few minor plotholes/oddities.

You wouldn't believe how many times Paul Giamatti has heard this.
lol

I will not judge you until I know what you think of Amazing Spiderman in contrast to Raimi's renditions.

Anyways, the costume for ASM 2 is the best one we've seen on screen, no more yellow eyes. But I know the movie will be rushed garbage. Editing out Mary Jane is a bad sign. One day, Sony will sell the franchise back to Marvel. And all will be right in the world. Until then, I wait.

Now I know that GAF is crazy when I see posts of ASM being better than Raimi-Man, let alone ASM being regarded as anything more than a borefest.

Should never have rebooted. Should have made a Spiderman 4, have Tobey and Kirsten back. Their daughter was killed crossing the street while Spidey was off saving someone else's kid. He blames himself, angry individual, even worse than when he was black suit spidey in #3.

Turns out the driver purposely ran over the daughter, his name was Cletus, he's a sick fuck who becomes Carnage. Could have ended the series this way. Instead, we get a fashion model as Spidey who can't really act, is awkward, a story that made little sense, pacing and direction was really off. And the movie which usually broke box office records, did pretty sub-par numbers.

Thank you for saying it I agree completely. Now to run off before Guy gets here.
Yeah, it's definitely an unpopular opinion. I went to go see the third one with a group of friends, on the way back from it the girl I was with was gushing about how Nolan was an artist and it was a masterpiece. I was just like, "Eh, it was okay I guess..."

Oh man. If they had just gone Carnage/Venom in the third movie, that would have maybe made up for emo Parker. But they would probably have ruined Carnage like they ruined Venom.
 
You think Twerpy Maguire and the queen of the harpies can come back for one more time?

I thought Maguire was great for the script he had. I wouldn't really care if Raimi replaced him with an actor he thought would be more suited to his script. I wouldn't even mind if it were a standalone film, unconnected to any trilogy.

Spider-Man 2 is easily the best superhero movie made to date and I have trust in Raimi's vision if he were to agree to make a new Spidey flick.

Toby Maguire means these Spidey movies are million times better.

At least Spiderman actually has a personality instead of being a whiney crybaby.
 
I thought Spider-Man 2 was a great film and 3 was garbage. Didnt realise people were so down on 2, I might have to rewatch it and see if it's just nostalgia or not.

Is the first ASM worth watching?

For the first time in my posting history, I agree with you Brera.

The story's shit, has typical Origin story problems dragging it down, but Garfield is genuinely a great Spiderman.

Oh my god yes, whiny crybaby is the phrase I was looking for. Brera I like you more and more each day.

They went too much with the 'whole world shitting on parker' and went overboard with it to the point of parody.

I was feeling the same way, everyone put TDK on a huge pedestal then cried over TDKR. Me? I thought it was better than TDK.

I respect your opinion. I just want you to know that.

He's uhh.. hehe.. he's um heh.. hmmm. uhh. he's heh. he's uh pretty cool. heh heh.

Lol. I mean, he just seems like a normal guy, good at skateboarding, etc., he's just really awkward. Didn't really seem that nerdy like Maguire was.

Edit: This guy gets it ^

Peter Parker's a hipster now instead of a nerd.
It's kind of like how we never get to see old school mega geek Thor without his powers anymore.

how wasn't he a nerd, he did science and he photographed stuff. He was a loner. Literally no friends.

Sorry he wasn't nerd enough like maguire who always sounds like he hasn't hit puberty yet. I mean wow the voice on that guy.

Sounds like Parker didn't have any friends because they didn't like all his favorite bands.

Not sure how that confirms him being used in AMS3, but it's an interesting villain/actor at least.

Old Peter > New Peter all day long though, no argument.
 
While I love the Raimi films (1 & 2), I'm not so upset that there's a reboot. Raimi's had a little too much cheese for me, Toby was a bad Spider-Man and Mary Jane was just Mary Jane in name. Garfield is an amazing
hehe
Spider-Man, Emma Stone is good but the plot was just a rehash of the original with more plot holes.

So Raimi got the story and action right while Webb got the casting right and the suit perfectly.
