OT: Spiderman

I agree with Rogue. As someone who read Spider-Man way back in the early 70s, (and have collected comics from earlier than that) I’d much rather see Gwen Stacey than that harlot Mary Jane in the first Spider movie. MJ was always too light-hearted and hare-brained to take seriously, IMO.

The physics of Spidey swinging and looping free-style in parabolic arcs is all wrong, too. He’s not moving as naturally as a free-falling object should in a one gee field. It doesn’t look real enough and comes across as awkward CGI.

Nice jugs on the chick who played MJ, though. They’re worth the price of admission, I guess.

It was also sloppily made with little attention given to continuity. Go to movie-mistakes.com for an up to date listing of all the continuity errors so far…

Its an hour and 50 minutes. Also, I’ve been trying to decide who the villan in the next one will be. I was thinking maybe the hobgoblin? Any ideas

still thought it was korny :slight_smile:

DOn;t you think, fellas, that he shoulda hit a lot faster…if I had spider reflexes I’d throw like 10 punches a second.

Royal Dragon

I remember that. That was hilarious. My pops worked in the S/T when that happened. I think it happened at night if my memory serves me correct.

Great Movie! I thought it was awesome, some of the sappy scenes were a little long but hey, whatt ya do?

As for the next one I kinda think Dr. Octopus will be the next bad guy! If they go for the cool factor though we may see Venom…

Are you serious Dez? :slight_smile: I live in Iceland and i saw it yesteday, and it’s been on regular showing since the 3rd.

Next villain

My guess would be that it would be the Green Goblin again (This time with Harry Osborne). They set it up nicely for the sequel.

They also mentioned “Dr. Conners”, and as all us nerds know, Dr.Conners is The Lizard. So it is possible he would be there too.

For the third movie? My bet goes on Doctor Octopus.

And god… I hope they don’t do Venom… they’d have to change the story way too much (Not enough time in a movie), which would make me mad;)

Just my guesses:)

Hau Tien

I may have to kill you for mentioning vegetables.

:wink:

Spiderman was the best superhero movie I’ve ever seen. The “continuity errors” are simply part of the process of condenceing several years of comics into a 2 hour movie. I think they handled that really well.

I work for the USA today newspaper and I read an article at work that said the sequal will feature Doc Ock and the lizard(already knew it when they mentiond connors in the movie). It starts filming in january and will be released in 2004.

Has anybody heard about the Daredevil movie comming out?
Also Ang le is going to direct the Hulk movie comming out.
Marvel has a ton of movies comming out I saw an article about it i should have kept here are some I remeber though

The green goblin WAS Hob Goblin. They just gave him another name.

Dr. Octopus is Dr. Octavius. I know I couldn’t wait for this movie!! Loved spiderman for YEARS!! The next one I hope they do make him more fluent when web-slinging. I agree with dezhen2001, it did make him too awkard looking. Maybe they did that because he was just getting used to swinging from web to web. Didn’t want him to look like a pro at it yet. I dunno, just hope he gets the hang of it by the next one. That’ll be GREAT!! :slight_smile:

Hobgoblin was not green goblin. Norman Osbourne was the green goblin, he dies, his son went crazy and became the green goblin, he was cured, then some other guy became the hobgoblin, whose costume was much cooler.

Hang on, I’ve got to adjust my pocket protector

Dang ya beat me to it.. Hobgoblin was some other guy. Jack something??:confused:

I thought the movie was the shiznit, but again I am a HUGE comic’s fan.

Oh and for you old timers with that Gwen Stacy crap, all I have to say about Mary Jane is one thing.

Cherry Pie.
