The Amazing Spider-Man General Discussion - - Part 21

Back to Ben.
I love how Uncle Ben reached for the gun, he knew he would go on and probably kill more people and it was wrong to have a gun, so "doing good things for people" he reached out and tried to stop it. Obviously he failed.
Which made it more tragic.

I think you've pretty much said what I (and a lot of other people, apparently) have been thinking for awhile, but couldn't pinpoint exactly -- I knew I LIKED TASM best and that it felt the most right to me (though it is obviously not without its flaws, and quite a few of them), but thought SM2 was a better film as far as being more cohesive, grander in scale, handling multiple themes and character arcs, etc. But yeah, I wasn't too fond of quite a few characterizations in it save for JJJ and Harry, I think. And while I still think Ock was the best movie villain if I look at the whole package and don't think about the comics, when I do think of the comics, it kind of bugs me that he was pretty much the Lizard with Ock's power set. I say that as someone who's a fan of both in the comics, btw.
