First Spider-Man: Homecoming reactions

Dane Goblin was awesome. Electro eh but then again it must be a nightmare to get that character on screen. Looked fine in action though.

Amazing Spider-Man 2 was a film with no clear identity. The tone was all over the place.

Totally confused seems to be a reoccurring thing with Kurtzman and Orci.

In The Mummy fall out, I learned they were responsible for Legend of Zorro. Mask of Zorro was so good, I wondered what went wrong with the sequel.

Remember when a huge portion of ASM1 was about Peter trying to find Uncle Ben's killer?

Because the filmmakers didn't remember that for the sequel.

That story line was done in ASM1. Less about catching the killer; more about realizing he could help others, learned as a byproduct of his little revenge quest.

Although, again, sometimes I mistake what's in the final movie and what was left out.

If only I could tell my younger self not to be excited for it.

Mask of Zorro is such a fun action adventure flick. How does Martin Campbell make blockbuster greatness like that and casino royale and then give us all his other shit
 
"Please, Peter, I have this genetic disease that killed my father after decades. So I need your blood, which may kill me immediately, RIGHT NOW."

Is this starting to get mean?
I don't mind if it is.

Mask of Zorro and Pirates 1.

Both started a series with so much promise.

Heck, even the Craig Bonds, you could say the same.

Mean?

What's mean is that I wanted my money back after seeing it

And I saw it for free

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
I still remember Electro's tooth gap disappearing during his transformation in ASM2. I'm not sure why that stood out among everything else but that just seemed extra dumb.
 
Quick: what's the moral/message of Amazing Spider-Man 2?

Something along the lines of keep your fucking promises (lol) and being a hero requires responsibility the likes of which Peter didn't display in the film (seriously). Cost him Gwen.

I don't think every movie has/needs a "message." Ask me the same about Guardians of the Galaxy and I couldn't answer that.

Family is what you make it, or something in that ballpark.

Remember how Ghost Dennis Leary kept randomly appearing to give his "I'm disappointed" look?

The ghost of your dad just told me "Stay away from my daughter!"

I have to listen to the guy, even though I never respected his wishes when he was alive.
 
Both ASM films are trash of the highest degree

This again describes something more like Transformers 5 or Suicide Squad, I just don't get how they could be considered "trash of the highest degree." And I'm not even trying to defend them. Even if I didn't like them I would still think some of these comments are outrageous. :p
 
ASM Peter Parker indirectly killed Uncle Ben because he was mad he was 2 cents off from getting chocolate milk at a bodega.

HOW DARE I HOW DARE YOU

God, that manufactured drama about Richard Parker, and memorizing that decay-rate algorithm and pretending it was his own genius.

Making the webshooters AFTER receiving a crate of Oscorp-manufactured webbing cartridges which for some reason were a thing that apparently Oscorp sold to people.

...

Mask of Zorro felt like Campbell was channeling Raiders Spielberg. It was just a fun adventure flick that took itself seriously enough. The score by James Horner was great, and it had wonderfully fun performances by the leads. The only real negative to it was the villains weren't as strong as they could be.
But the film had Zeta-Jones unleashed upon the world, Banderas being both a lovable loser and a suave bad-ass, and then Anthony Hopkins being the smoothest muthafucka ever.

I would love to know how and why Vertical Limit happened.

I watched it once when it released on DVD and remember a few exciting stunts in it, then the Paxton heel turn. Then a bunch of unremarkable shit around that.
