Saw it earlier today. I thought it was "meh." It wasn't shitty, but at the same time it wasn't spectacular. The first one was better.
Who was the shadowy figure...

It was a free promo because the 2 studios originally had the same opening dates. Xmen pushed back in exchange for Sony showing the free promo for all the Spidey screenings.

It would be so sweet if Sony worked our a deal with Disney where Garfield could show up in a Marvel movie.

People going in expecting an action flick are probably going to be disappointed. This movie is more about Peter Parker than it is about Spider-Man.
I liked the story it told. I would've liked to have seen more action for a 2hr 20 minute film, but I liked what was there. Its just not that balls out, in your face, Michael Bay wet dream inspiring actionfest that a lot of people were hoping for. Ill buy it when it comes out.

Avid has recently come out and softened his stance on Spider Man crossing over with other Marvel properties. Before he was adamant it would never happen under his control. Now, he's said it might be a possibility so long as Spider Man was the primary focus of the story - essentially the primary lead.

After seeing it, it was good summer comic movie. I agree with the 7/10 scale.
Couple parts bugged me, but I get that every movie. The only extra villain that bugged me was harry, but that is more setting it up for later I am guessing and they should of killed her next movie so harry could build it up more. Same with the Rhino, I was sitting there almost to the end and was asking my buddy where the **** he was at. We all complain in other movies that villains do not matter is most movies because they get killed off quickly. Well it seems they are building up to other movies. I have a feeling the last guy talking to harry and them showing the vulture wings, octo arms and the rhino are setting up the sinister six movie they green lit. Other things in the thread, Peter is not nerdy enough for a lot of people but yet gets yelled at because he builds his own web shooters? He was 2nd behind Gwen for studies and she was getting scholarships and landing jobs at Oscorp for her skills. Seems he was smart enough to adapt his knowledge from what he learned from his dad or stole from Oscorp. And not all of the spiderman comics are as him super nerdy and dorky. Just like all the batmans were dark knight. I think Garfield has made spiderman his own. Anyone stating this is worse than spiderman 3 or some of those other shit comic movies needs to take a step back and realize they may be hating on something else other than the movie. |

This movie is better than Spider-Man 3. I also don't get the hate for the build up to Electro.

Sony execs are laughing all the way to Vegas for their hookers and blow party right now at the thought of giving Marvel back the Spider Man rights.

I'd expect a big second-week dropoff. They still make money, so they'll keep the rights and keep churning them out, but I wouldn't expect much more past five or so if they don't improve the quality.
Marvel's got Avengers-themed movies planned out until 2028. I wouldn't be surprised if they're figuring they'll just reboot X-Men, Spider-Man, and Fantastic Four after that. |
