New Spidey Trailer

I liked the Nolan Batman films. I think the first Burton film was more true to the comic, but the Nolan films were still good. I hated the Batmobile in the Nolan films, but other than that, they were good. As a comic fan it's hard to not compare the movies to the comics, but I do try and think of the movies as an alternate universe because I know there will be differences..some for the worst and some for the best. I don't know....
Plus there are some things that just don't translate well from comic to film. As a comic fan it is hard for me not to get irritated when they make things wildly different though.
But I personally think that MOST comic films have been true enough to get the main idea across and be at least half way enjoyable. (MOST=any comic movie to come out after the first X-Men, because let's face it, Aside from the first Burton Batman film...no one even tried to make good films out of comic characters.)

I remember reading online somewhere when the reboot was first announced that the reason for it was something about a script was thrown out, another one made, toby didn't like it/didn't want to do it, and sony had a certain amount of time to do something with spiderman or else they'd lose the rights.. So they went with a reboot
Green Giant:
I am thankful I don't real alot of comics or books. It really lets me enjoy movies as movies without getting cynical when something isn't how you feel it should be.
Personally I love the first 2 80s-90s Batman movies, and I also love the new Batman movies. Maybe my age allowed me to really love both of them. I was 5 when I saw the first Batman, and I think the more theatrical feel appealed more to me back then.
The only comic I have read in the last decade would have to be The Dark Knight Returns which my buddy told me I had to read last year. I don't know about you guys but I would love to see that story brought to the big screen.

Yeah thats partially because of it, and also the choice of villains Raimi wanted to do, the studio (mainly Avi Arad) thought the villains were stupid. I personally dont like the idea of a reboot, for a ton of reasons, but the main one is that its a WASTE OF TIME. Fine, dont do the movies with Raimi and Tobey, like shmokes said, its not about the actor playing Spiderman, its about Peter Parker. Who cares if another actor plays him. Everyone knows how spiderman got his powers, and besides, this whole generation saw the Raimi movies. They arent going to change THAT much stuff, except for the web shooters. I would have rather made them stick with the organic ones and not waste time telling another origin story, then change em and do that all over again. Its retarded. ::)
--- Quote ---As for superman... I just don't know what you can do with superman. Christopher Reed IS Clark Kent and now that he is gone, you just can't do anyomore superman films until you find a suitable replacement. The last guy really looked the part, but there was something missing. He was also stuck in a terrible movie. They basically ripped off the original superman film almost shot by shot and then the few things that the DID change, were just awful. Supes can't hve a baby... that's like Jesus having a baby... the faithful just won't stand for it and holdng a mountain of Kryptonite would surely kill him.

Superman is a great character, thats the thing, what CANT you do with superman? Hollywood is just too afraid to make a movie where the villains are either unknown, or too grandiose, especially after the Green Lantern debacle. Now they think they cant do anything cosmic, because Green Lantern failed. Cmon, Superman vs Braniac, or Doomsday? Someone that can go toe to toe with Supes? Tell me you wouldnt see a death of superman movie. Superman can do amazing things, we just havent seen someone write a story that showcases his abilities. I personally liked the Bryan Singer Superman, but there were too many undertones that dont jive with the character. He was trying to make Superman feel like an outcast, because the director is gay. I get it, but do that with another character, dont do that with superman. And the costume was retarded. The S was too small, and his boots were a joke. The red color was all wrong, and his cape shouldnt be leather. His cape should be a bright vibrant red, and wave like a flag. Leave the leather to Batman.

Superman is the one superhero all of America, and pretty much most of the rest of the world has been familiar with for decades. My Grandpa read superman. Don't change the Sup'.
