[Movie] The Amazing Spider-Man 2

I went back and watched the first three Spidermans. The first one aged HORRIBLY. The acting, writing and movie was cringeworthy. Spiderman 2, however, remains a classic. And the third was just bad.

 

Trailer's not bad but the first one was so mediocre I'm not sure what to expect. Still consider Raimi's first two as the best Spider Man movies.

 

My first reaction to Amazing was why on earth did they repeat half of the first spiderman movie with MacGuire. I felt like I was watching the same movie with a new villian. But it did grow on me over time. And after watching it more I think Garfield was a good cast for the part. I also thought Gwen was well cast. And the Lizard. Garfield more easily made the transition from Parker to the funny Spiderman than MacGuire did. Though I do think MaGuire nailed his role in the first two of the three movies as well.

The Trailer looked weak. I liked the dark brooding villian though. The others didn't get me excited.

Thinking this one will 60% on action alone. The rest be in the direction and acting.

 

As a spiderman fan, i cant help but feel excited for this one!

 

Electro-Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo

 

I like this new dude as Spiderman, and I like how he is more witty, like the comic and cartoon amazing spiderman

 

I've said it before, and I'll keep saying it:

Topher Grace should have been Spider-man.

******* it, I wish Marvel owned the rights to make movies for their flagship character.

X-men, too.

Spoiler

And the Fantastic Four.

 

New Trailer out today

Anyone know the name of the song that was playing at the end? Trying to make a new Rockets mix, sort of a playoff preview. Would really appreciate it.

 

Anybody seen it yet? The average rating seems to be about 6/10 for most reviews. I hear the action is good, but as I feared, the over saturation of villains doesn't work well.

Sounds like the best version of spiderman on film is still going to be Spectacular Spiderman, which is a great adaptation of the comics.

here is a clip of spidey vs Sinister Six:

I saw it last night and enjoyed it. See it in 3D. The visual effects were awesome in 3D.

 

Just saw it... it wasn't great, but entertaining.

I guess this new series of Spiderman really tries to be more emotionally engaging than the first. It was a bit anticlimactic for me but I still enjoyed it as a whole. Didn't know there was an x-men clip after the credits though, caught me by surprise.

The new broke about that when it was released internationally 2 weeks ago, the comic book nerds thought it was a sign that possibly Fox and Sony would join together with their respective Marvel properties to rival Marvel Universe flicks, but that was a pipe dream....

As for the movie itself, it was good, my expectations were lowered after seeing the RT score barely being fresh at 60%. Thought it was a bit long for 2 1/2 hours, but seems standard now with comic book movies. I just wish they didn't focus so much on setting up the Sinister Six movie.

I do regret not seeing it in 3D, there were some amazing shots that would look good with the additional dimension....

 

Really good movie.

Got me right in the feels though.

 

Good movie, could have been great. Visually spectacular, acting was pretty good. Felt unfocused, in a lot of ways felt like Iron Man 2, where the outlook was to the next movie in the franchise, all while letting the existing movie feel like more could have been done to tell a better story.

3d was worth it though, Garfield is a better Spider-man than Maguire.

 

I been getting mixed reviews on this one
Will this do as well as Capt America?

Rocket River
not getting that feeling

 

Not as good as Capt. But it's better than Thor.

 

Not great but I was entertained. Saw the ending coming a mile away. I'm very excited for the Insidious 6 movie though.

 

It was horrible. Emma stone was the only thing that made it bearable.
