What's new

The Amazing Spiderman

They didn't reboot because they wanted to, Sony was going to continue the series, but when they totally took away Raimi's job in the third one he jumped ship, and then main characters followed. This is a reboot because they had every intention to continue the series, but simply couldn't because they lost the vital cast and crew members. It's the same studio, they just forced their own hand when they decided to sabotage Raimi. It's like when the Jazz traded Deron and decided to rebuild sooner than they initially intended because they knew that they were going to lose the face. They simply decided to move forward as a franchise by starting from the ground up with new parts, not just to make an extra buck.

This is a movie, you know what is going to happen.... NBA is not. Really what is the point of remaking all 3 movies whether there will be a 4th or not?
 
SM2 was possibly the best comic book movie ever made.

Great villain, very good special effects, plenty of comedy, and tons of action.

SM3, might have been the worst. A dude that weighs less than Mary Jane should never play Eddie Brock/Venom. Nor should stupid Harry Osborne have half his face blown off either. And the black suit didn't give Parker a EMO haircut. Lame.

I'm willing to give this new spiderman a chance. But they have a lot of work to do.
 
Doesn't look that great imo.... then again, a lot of the super hero/comic book movies don't look that great to me.
 
They are following the comic books way more closely in the new ones, FWIW. For example, Spiderman invented his own web shooting device after becoming all spider like...it didn't just start shooting out of his wrists.
