If you're not with the one you love, then love the one you're with.

Garfield isn't the actor you prefer, but just accept him because you have no choice.

You find Spiderman 2 the best? I personally find it the worst one. In my opinion: Spiderman 1 was great, Spiderman 2 was boring, and Spiderman 3 was okay'ish

Reboot of a reboot that is barely a decade old. Not at all interested. Won't even entertain watching it regardless of how good people say it is.

[QUOTE="SaintLeonidas"][QUOTE="jalexbrown"] This is really bugging me, too.jalexbrown

...other than the big green lizard Spider Man is fighting in the trailer.

[QUOTE="jalexbrown"][QUOTE="SaintLeonidas"] I thought it was quite clear from the recent trailers and TV spots that The Lizard is the villain.SaintLeonidas

You disagree with me all the time, but I still speak to you. I've got no grudge against you. As for MrPraline, I have no grudge against him either. My refusal to speak to him is solely a joke; I simply want him to switch his avatar back to the one featuring the cat so that I can go back to cracking (friendly) jokes.

Sam Rami's Spiderman trilogy was a reboot? I thought it was the first film series for Spiderman.

It's fairly obvious from the trailers that the villain is The Lizard. C'mon, guys.

WARNING! SPIDERMAN 2 SPOILERS!

I think Spiderman 2 is the best in the trilogy because it presents a superhero - Spiderman - as a normal person with personal problems PERFECTLY. The way it portrays Peter Parker's troubles with Mary Jane, the truth regarding his involvement in Uncle Ben's death, and his struggles with his acadmics is fantastic. Furthermore, the ending is simply brilliant; Mary Jane's realization that Peter is Spiderman was great to watch. It made the film all too perfrect. When you consider these aspects of the film, it's no wonder that Spiderman 3 didn't compare; the bar that Spiderman 2 set was too high. Oh, yea, let's not forget about the performance of all of the actors.

Why the hell are they rebooting Spiderman already?

I'm so sick of Spiderman. I hope it flops just to punish the money-grubbers at Marvel trying to milk it to death.

EPIC FAIL! SONY is making the film, not Marvel. SONY also made the last three films. Marvel sold the rights to make movies of Spiderman to SONY.

thanks i seriously didn't know it was the lizard man as the villain. From the trailer it look like there was gonna be some giant cloud villain like in Fantastic Four 2(silver surfer > the avengers).playmynutz

I don't see how that's the case since the trailers actually show The Lizard...numerous times.

I'm looking forward to this movie more than any other this year. I'm glad that they're basing it more on the comics.

"MARVEL SOLD..." that's all that needs to be said.

It's all a money-grab that's been milked to death.

Just let it go. Make NEW movies with NEW characters.

Why would Marvel do that? Normally the answer is for more money, but Spiderman has a massive fan base and is a sure money maker no matter how bad the outcome see Spiderman 3. Hackers90

This was done way before they had the financial backing to self-finance their own films. I believe that's the reason Sony has the film rights to Spider-Man and Ghost Rider, and Fox has the rights to the X-Men and Fantastic Four movies.

I'm kinda excited. I like Spiderman, but my guess is that the 2002 film will still be my favorite. The thing I find weird is that this new Spidey-movie is being released on July 3, I think they should've released it in May on the tenth anniversary of the first Tobey Maguire Spider-man movie (which was released on May 3 2002).

I'm really not feeling the new Spiderman. At all. I doubt I'll ever see it.

Had they opened it the anniversary of the 2002 film, they would've opened against The Avengers, and that would have been box office suicide for Sony. Avengers had big name actors in the cast, a reconizeable name attached to direct, and a MASSIVE promotional push.

For The Amazing Spider-Man--not so much. Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield aren't excatly huge draws, a director whose ability to direct an action film is unknown, and most surprisingly, not a whole lot of promotional pushing leading to the release.

So this is it, eh? We're going to reboot Batman, Spiderman, and Superman every 10 years, or less?

Is it a coincidence that the last name of the film's director is "Webb"?

Franchise reboot. I should have clarified. Talking about cartoons and comics and stuff.

Marvel sold the movie rights for various of their characters to a few different movie studios over a decade ago. They were having financial troubles, and desperately needed the money. This is different from the present day, where Marvel had bounced back enough to start producing their own films, specifically Iron Man, Thor, Avengers, etc.

Anyway, Sony has had the Spider-Man movie rights for quite a long time now. The reason that Sony is rebooting the Spidey movies is because of their contract. If they don't make a Spider-Man movie after x number of years, the rights automatically go back to Marvel. No way Sony is gonna let a cash cow like Spidey movies go so easily, hence the new movie.

Long story short, Marvel was desperate and sold the rights ages ago, Sony are the ones milking us to death with Spider-Man films.

The Dark Knight Rises is my superhero film I'm anticipating for next month, Spiderman I'll wait for DVD.

I'm looking forward to it. I used to read quite a few of the comics.

There are some things in this movie that make me excited to see it but there are some drawbacks that make me unsure. Spider-Mans costume has just a little too much blue in it for me. Spider-Man was more red in his costume. I'm glad that they're including web shooters and his parents into the mix. But I hope his obsession to find out about his parents isn't something that goes for the next spidedy movies. I have several questions like "will mary jane ever be in these movies? "When will they introduce J. Jonah Jameson and who will play him?" The way Andrew Garfield looks sorta has some resemblence to Edward Cullen which doesn't at all make me happy. The original spider-man movies almost felt like they stook close to the 60's comics in terms of campiness. I'm glad to see that the new movie is taking a much more serious approach. I'm gonna see it though.

I wonder who'll play Jameson in this Spiderman film (series). The guy that played Jameson in the last trilogy was so great, I don't think he can be outdone. At best, we should expect to be disappointed.

only a few more weeks left to go
