I'm not saying LITERALLY NO ONE ELSE IN THE WORLD thinks that way, but it is not the common view of the film.

I'll hold my judgement on Spider-man 4 until some story line gets leaked.

Well, I think it's basically supposed to be a remake, right?

Ya, it's true... Spiderman 3 happened to be my favorite of the three. It had its obvious and painful flaws, yes, but... I happened to really like it. ;) And while it's true that it got a lot of poor reviews, I wouldn't go so far as to say that everyone hated it. I've seen mostly mixed reviews, actually.

But either way, no one can really argue that the trilogy in its entirety was a big success. So... I still don't get the reboot. :|

edit: I realize, Top, that you're coming from a background of actually reading the old comics and viewing Spiderman from that point of view. I just viewed it as a movie. :P I've heard that the comic-lovers were the ones that had issues with it, and I get that.

The only "MAIN" reason a lot of people hated the third movie was because of all the hype with Venom (the most liked Spiderman character) being in the movie. The fact that he only got a cameo in the last 20 minutes of the movie made it a complete downer. Plus
Eddie Brock dieing at the end? What the heck?
Also almost no one cared about the super villain Sandman. Also plus as compare to the the first 2 movies, it was much more loyal to the comic book (not 100% of course) and much better structured than the 3rd movie.

I also have mixed feelings about this movie because its not directed by Sam Raimi. He's such a great director, but screwed up with Spiderman 3. Why did he refuse to make a fourth movie?

He wanted to make a forth movie with the original cast. They were all on board. Sony said LOL NO WE DON'T LIKE YOUR IDEAS and dumped all of them.

I do not think I will be seeing this movie. I have no interest in Spider-Man at all.

I'm looking forward to this mainly because of Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, and the fact that this one looks like it'll be a lot darker/serious as compared to the others. Albeit, I only saw half of the first one, but it looked a little too goofy for my tastes. :anxious: I should probably watch all of them without passing judgment, however.

It's also directed by the guy who made (500) Days of Summer, so that should be interesting. \:D/

I think it is a little too early to reboot the franchise but it looks decent enough I suppose.

Cool, but I think I will probably like the old ones better. We'll see I guess.

I personally adore the original trilogy*, and just bought a special edition of 1-3 today. I'll miss Tobey and Dunst.
  • Showing his parents' departure was nice... I always wondered about them (having not read the comics).
  • 0:55... yeah, this guy is even geekier than Tobey was.
  • I didn't like the spider-bite scenes. It felt way too much like I've seen it before, but better.
  • Peter's aunt certainly looks young; probably a good thing.
  • The POV shots were decent.
  • I love the logo!
So yeah, the trailer really didn't have much to it. A good teaser, I guess. I'll probably see it in theaters.

*This new series is hereby named the Spider-Man prequel...trilogy.

That. Was. Awful. :displeased:







I mean, at first I was like, "okay, this could be pretty good." Then I saw him swinging around in the city. :thud: It looked like a video game! THAT WAS TERRIBLE! I also didn't like the view point...and I totally hate the idea of him having web cartridges. I mean, he may as well have never been bit at all since he can't even produce his own web. :doubt: I know they are trying to make it like the comics, but they could've at least left out that detail.

A new trailer has been released.



I heard that some people think it looks amazing, and it does look decent, but to me, it looks almost as good as the 2002 version. :anxious:
