Dread Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 I'd argue Maguire was the WORST thing about Raimi's Spider-Man series. He was a simpering, whiny lout who looked like he was trying to be a cartoon. Garfield already is the bouncy energetic SM. That image shows that they're continuing in that direction.

JackFetch Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 I started out hating Amazing Spider-Man, but I seem to watch it every time it's on now. I really like the little things Garfield does, like a stutter, or an inflection on a word. I just really hated The Lizard. Link to post Share on other sites
Stavros Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 The Lizard was the weak link, I really liked Garfield and Stone, and that's what makes Spider-man work. I never bought Maguire and Dunst. Link to post Share on other sites
JackFetch Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 I keep going back and forth on this movie, and the design of Rhino has pushed it over the edge for me. I just can't. Mighty Morphin Power Rhino Link to post Share on other sites
KnightWing Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 So... because of a bad photo at an odd angle of a supposedly-real poster where you can barely make out the form of some kind of thing that might be the Rhino, you're done with the movie entirely?

JackFetch Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 They haven't gotten one villain right in the entire run(ok maybe Sandman), and turning Rhino into a robot suit that looks straight out of Power Rangers is enough to make me not want to see it, yeah.

Stavros Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Are you kidding? Doctor Octopus is one of the all time great comic book movie villains, they did an amazing job with him! In terms of physicality Sandman and Lizard were good too, they just suffered from not really being top tier villains. I like Lizard in the comics but its only after years of battles and shit that Conners has been through. Can't do that in one movie. I'll wait for a trailer to judge Rhino. Yes it does look very Power Rangers but I doubt it'll move or feel like that on the screen. Link to post Share on other sites

Problem is he wasn't the villain of that movie. Spiderman and Mary Jane were. Link to post Share on other sites

Stavros Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Does look like fun. Especially the glimpses we get about halfway through of certain things and the implications of those. Looks like we're getting Rhino, Electro and a Harry Osborne Goblin, and based on the Oscorp labs hints of a Sinister Six? We see Vultures wings and Doc Ock's arms, plus numbered doors that, whilst actually going to 7 feature most obviously 6 in the trailer. Could be a case of too many villains but at least they're working at the behest of Oscorp, it doesn't look like they're going to repeat the Harry screwups of the last trilogy. They may invent whole new ways to screw it up, but at least it's new! Link to post Share on other sites
Koete Posted December 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 It better end with Chris Cooper getting out of bed and grabbing a wallet that says "Bad Motherfucker," that's all I'm sayin'. Link to post Share on other sites
KnightWing Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 If they treat the multiple villains more like members of an evil group instead of individual characters with motivations that require a ton of focus (as in the previous Spider-Man films), that could actually work.

Gareth Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Wasn't a fan of James Horner's score, so I'm happy to see that he's been replaced by Hans Zimmer. Just hope he doesn't go with his electrical "Nolan score." Link to post Share on other sites
KnightWing Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 I've not been a Zimmer fan as of late, but even his brand of generic modern bombasticness has to be better than the utterly awful score of the first ASM. I still have no idea how a composer as great as James Horner wrote something that bland. Link to post Share on other sites
Dread Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 For a long time now, "Hans Zimmer" has been a name used by a studio of composers in his employ. Link to post Share on other sites
Gareth Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 I don't know if I'm in the minority or not but really like Elfman's score for the first two movies. Also, it's been announced that Zimmer himself will do the score. Link to post Share on other sites

The Master Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 I like both trailers, but this one is better. I love the moment when Gwen catches herself saying something she shouldn't. Pure Emma Stone right there. Link to post Share on other sites
