The Amazing Spider Man 2 (2014)

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Ooooh the early reactions for DOFP are great.

With this, that and Guardians this is probably gonna be my favourite CBM year ever.

the guys at Red Letter Media REALLY hated this movie

call it one of the worst they have ever seen

This is both incredibly cute and funny

And yet despite all of these valid complaints, I still enjoyed the movie.

Me too, but it's due to a great Peter and Gwen and an awesome costume. They definitely should tighten up what's going on and concentrate on developing a great villain to rival Spiderman. I think DeHaan as Goblin has the bones to do it, but I see that character going south in the next flick. If only they could develop some characters to invest in besides Peter.

I really thought we would have gotten Flash, he was there in the first movie and thought he would've been part of the supporting cast. Hell they could've busted out an Agent Venom too.

I don't think I've ever been this excited for a movie. I feel like a kid again.

Yea even yahoo news posted they expect a huge drop for this movie. Seems like everyone wants spidey to fail lately. Really sad time to be a spidey fan. While I enjoyed this movie everyone else in the world seems to hate it, the cartoon thats out now is garbage, and the only thing that is doing good right now is the comics from what I hear. i just want spidey to be number 1 again.

CBM are inherently flawed anyways, there will never be that perfect one.

STM 1/2 had his....had his....hmmm.

Batman 89 had his....had his....hmmm.

Spiderman 2 had his.....hmmm.

Cap 2 had his....hmmm.

Scratch that.

I hope the directors cut removes Zimmer's Boyfriend (German Doctor), his scenes were pointless.

How do you know this stuff?

My sister worked for Sony pictures and now Disney, I get all the inside scoops.

But this one I made up.

Come on I can name flaws in everyone of those but I would be wrong by many to name them cause are so great.

OK yeah...pretty much entirely agree with that Red Letter Media review. This may be right down there with Spiderman 3, with ASM 1 being not much better.

Why do people like ASm so much. The fights were short, the score was boring and it felt really rushed. This one feels more like a spiderman film. Did people just like ASm better because it was dark? What happened to the fun in comic book movies? Sure spiderman can be a dark character but he's also fun and colorful sota like this movie. i dont get the overwhelming hate and batman and robin comparisons. Whatever. Guess thats just the way it is.

With GotG seemingly a lock for being awesome I will say that if DOFP turns out even decent this will indeed probably be an unbeatable year for CBM's. Sure there's 2016 with Cap 3 and BvS but BvS is iffy at best and Part 3's are pretty much never as good as Part 2's.

Cause Sam Raimi is not doing those films he didn't create Spiderman.

Something I realize the other day. I don't even know what Amazing Spiderman is about......

yeah I know he gets his powers and he makes the suit and he talks to Gwen etc etc. But what the hell was the plot of that movie?

Even the plot of spiderman 3 was understandable. But with Amazing Spiderman I just get these glimpses of scenes from when they fight and when the cop dad dies, But WTF was the motive of the bad guy?

Why did he want to turn people into lizards for a couple of hours? what was the point?

It's a tighter movie than ASM2. It knows what it wants to do and how to get there. It doesn't have a bunch of loose threads that lead no where.

I liked ASM2 but it's a colorful mess with some bad decisions. It's by no means B&R but if it had focused narrative like the 1st it would be a lot better. Spiderman himself and the action/movements are far and away the best in ASM2 tho.

Have you even seen ASM2 yet? I don't remember if you got around to it.

 

[crows]

yeah I saw it and even AMS2's plot and the villain's motives are more clear to me. But for some reason amazing spiderman is kind of a blank for me, I remember scenes from it but If you asked me to tell you the story in detail I don't think I could.

But I could tell you what Spiderman 3 or ASM 2 are about

people who thought that pissed me off. I like those films and always will but they were never perfect movies at all and Andrew garfield to me is a much better spiderman. Say what you want about the films but he plays the part well especially in this one.

Its simple. SM3 was supposed to be dont let the darkness consume you but it did a bad job in showing you true darkness when it was acting all silly and stupid. ASm is about being the hero but its so rushed you dont really get to realize it
