Gray_Area:
Hey, they're going to re-make Forbidden Planet, anything's possible.

A great movie, but backward even in its time.

Heh heh, I think my confusion over that sums up right there why this movie isn't for me - I never really read the comics, so all my knowledge comes from vague memories of the cartoon and Spiderman 1-3. For me, those movies were pretty good and don't need to be redone/remade/rebooted/whatever. But I can see it making sense for the die-hards...still, it just looks bad to me.

I know that of course. ;) Maybe my wording was slightly ambiguous. I meant that I doubt Jack Nicholson would have come back for a sequel if they had asked him to. Which they didn't, because they killed his character. I just sense that he wanted to put in an awesome performance (which he did), make a ton of money (which he did), but probably wouldn't do it again because it really couldn't be topped, and if he would have done it again, he would have no doubt wanted even more money to reprise it. I am basing this on absolutely nothing btw. :laugh:

For me it's just incredibly stupid to reboot it at this point. Spider-man one set an all-time record for opening weekend gross if I remember right. And then it went on to incredible success in tocket sales and DVD sales. Which means everyone saw it. Plus they loved it, audiences and critics alike.

So why reboot it? Put someone new in the Spidey suit because you can't get or don't want Toby anymore. I get that. But that's no reason to retell the story that everyone already saw and loved just a few years ago. Spider-man wasn't the Toby Mcguire story. It was the Peter Parker story. And as near as I can tell, Peter is still in the film. The fact that Toby is gone is irrelevant to the story.

Bootay:
I agree. That's what I liked about The Incredible Hulk, they didn't bother putting us through another origin story again.
