The Amazing Spiderman (2012)

[Sean]

Yeah, I grew to hate the sulking behavior of Peter Parker in Spider Man 2 and then followed that up with a disgust for the acting in Spider Man 3. However, I don't see how a reboot will fix anything.

Batman Begins was good. Dark Knight was okay. I actually hated how Christian fucked with Batman's voice but I have to admit I liked the new Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) over the Tommy Lee Jones casting back in Batman Forever. I'm going to have to go back and watch the first Batman from 1989 though because I didn't realize that Harvey Dent was even in that movie. I was too young at the time to pay attention.

There are a couple characters I want to see on the big screen someday.

Thor
Captain America
Daredevil - I wanted to see another one
Green Lantern

I don't want to see crap though. I want a great experience watching them.

Thor started production today, Cap coming soon, i heard Daredevil might be rebooted as well, Green Lantern gonna start filming soon

[Buzzman]

isnt Ryan Reynolds Green lantern?

[Sean]

yep, and Deadpool

Dude, why you get so butthurt over someone hating your faglicious movie? Iron Man was clearly better. The hype surrounding your movie was about a dead dude, not the movie. Get over it.

So what's new with you?

uhmmmmm without Burton's batman, Nolan wouldn't have had a Batman.

Uhmmm? Why? Warner Bros. Didn't decide to have Nolan make his Batman films because of the shit fest that is 90's Batman movies. They did it because there was a revitalized interest in super hero movies. Nolan just happened to blow all of them out of the water. If Burton and Schumacher's movies were never made, Nolan still would have gotten a chance to make his movies.

You seem to have a poor taste in movies. Why a shit fest like Batman Forever is even being brought to the conversation is beyond me. Dent's role in Batman 89 is pointless.

How does a thread about Spiderman turn into a fight about Batman?

[Sean]

Good to see some answers. I don't follow with the production. I tend to wait it out until I see the previews when I get to be surprised.

I liked Daredevil and thought it had potential. I'm not sure of the popular opinion of the movie but I know I liked it.

Thor was just a fucking badass in the comics and I liked the Greek gods from what I remember back during my younger years. I just think a movie based on Thor would be sweet.

As far as Green Lantern, I cannot WAIT.

Regarding the Captain, I was just surprised to see that a movie about him didn't come out post-9/11, you know, with the trend towards patriotism and all that jazz.

I think I saw a Captain America movie on Netflix a while back when browsing but just passed over it.

the new one is supposed to have Kirk's dad from the New Star Trek as Cap

[IamMedellin]

Lol. Ironman was a decent popcorn flick, and that's it.

The recent Batman films shit on everything else in the genre and it isn't even close.

what-a-fucking Homer

ROFLMAO

[Derrville]

That Captain America movie is on Hulu too for anyone interested in 80 mins of LULZ

[JMeist]

Spiderman is sick. I agree though the third movie was shit. I like the idea of a teenage peter parker. I wonder who would play him.

[Buzzman]

the directors cut of Daredevil was really good. But Ben Affleck starring at the time was such a mistake because he was so unpopular with the media at that time.

[KINGOFOOTBALL]

with a darker, more realistic undertone

Heeeeere we go. And predictably thats where the thread went..


1. There is no dark or "realistic" undertone to Spiderman. Spiderman has and always should be the reluctant campy hero. Sorry to break it to all of you but Spiderman 1 nailed Peter Parker/Spiderman. There was some creative freedom taken ((skipping gwen going straight to MJ , Organic web shooting)) both worked beautifully.The goblin costume was terrible though.
Ill admit Part 2 was blah...and 3 was trash. But thats Raimis fault for falling in love with the numbers and trying to appeal to the "chick flick" audience. Part 3 was a disaster because he took full control from writing up and destroyed one of the greatest villains in the marvel universe.


2. Batman doesnt have any damn super powers. You have to be gritty and realistic. Batman 1 was just that . The only campiness was the Jokers insanity. Even that was oscar worthy by Nicholson. Nolans take on Joker was different but the tones of both movies was the same as the first Batman. The further that franchise got from that the worse it got.


Having some gritty dirty hyper realistic Spiderman is utterly stupid. Why not just make the Hulk orange.


3. Iron Man was great. Downey was fantastic and the movie was every bit as good as Dark Knight. As "hyper realistic" as you can get about a guy flying around in a red and yellow robot suit.

4. Hollywood is fucking retarded. How do you "reboot" a movie thats 8 years old ,and spawned 2 sequels. Thats like Cameron rebooting Lord of the Rings.



Raimi absolutely screwed the franchise. Spiderman doesnt have great villains.
2 goblins , Lame ass sandman , Lizard.... only Doc Ock and Venom are worth any screen time.
Theres not much left unless you start crossing over to daredevil territory and have Kingpin show up.

[Buzzman]

lol at Raimi screwing up Spiderman. He was the only reason the 1st two were good. The 3rd one, Sony fucking man raped him, forcing him to use Venom and sandman because they wanted money and they themselves re-wrote the script, and now after he wanted full contol back for Spiderman 4, they said fuck you, we dont want the vulture as the villian in the 4th. YOUR FRIED.

So dumb, i bet Raimi and John Malkovich would've created a great vulture. Then the 5th was all set up for The Professor becomin Lizard.

[MVP1991]

the new one is supposed to have Kirk's dad from the New Star Trek as Cap

No he is going to be Thor.

They haven't picked someone to play Cap yet.

[Sean]

^ thats right my bad, kept thinking of Triple H as Thor, lol
