I don't understand the reboot...being that they had just made record sales on the last spiderman series that wasn't really that long ago...at all. Did the film makers really believe they were going to top that? Doesn't make sense. 20 yrs from now...maybe, but why so soon?
It'd be like if someone re-did The Dark Knight 10 yrs from now. Horrible idea (sadly someone will do it).

I personally liked the first 2 Spider-Mans with Tobey Maguire. Thought they were pretty entertaining. The third one I did not care for much. The addition of Venom was poorly done and pretty weak. Haven't seen the rebooted "Amazing Spider-Man" yet, but I thought the trailer looked ok. In fact my brother has it on blu-ray. I think I'll give it a watch tonight before bed. I really love Emma Stone and Denis Leary, so it has that going for it. I don't know what to think of Andrew Garfield though. Time will tell I guess. Jamie Foxx as Electro seems dumb as hell though. Not a fan of that move. Who knows though. I thought Heath Ledger was a terrible choice for the Joker initially. How wrong was I about that! |

I understand why they didn't want to continue the Raimi series, but they could've at least assumed we're all familiar with how Spider-Man got his powers and skipped the origin, which I thought was the weakest part of the new movie. Raimi's first one did it better, even as corny as it was. But once it got past the origin, Webb's version was interesting if not amazing. I look forward to the next one.

I agree. I liked that the new one was more old school Spidey (like have to make his own webbing) than the Raimi ones. One change I did like was making Aunt May more badass. The weak, frail Aunt May plot devices from the comics got old over time.

IGN has a story up that shows a locker with the number 14, from a set photo tweeted by Marc Webb with the hashtag #happybirthday. Knowing Dane Dehaan has been cast as Harry Osborn fans have already started freaking out about the picture and drawing conclusions from it.
In the Ultimate Spiderman comics Eddie Brock and Peter Parker find the Venom suit in a locker with the same number. February 6th is Dehaans birthday and Josh Trank, who directed Chronicle, is set to direct the Venom stand alone movie. All signs point to Dehaan being Venom outside of him being cast as Harry Osborn. I think Dehaan, the actor, would make a great Venom. However I'm tired of the skinny Venom, didn't like it in Spidey 3, don't like the idea of it now. http://screenrant.com/amazing-spider...sborn/?_r=true Last edited by Gravedigger; 02-07-2013 at 10:18 PM.. |
