For those of you who had ever followed or read my Spider-movie series, I've just put up the very last entry on my blog

http://fenskeland.blogspot.ca/2013/0...ider-word.html

It's mostly a mish-mash of all the final little points I've wanted to make about the film, but couldn't work into any of my previous posts.

I doubt I'll be changing anyone's mind (for those of you who prefer Raimi's offerings) at this point in the game, but I thought I'd put it up here for posterity.

I've said it before. This guy says what I am thinking. And I'm not just saying "Yeah! ASM FTW w00t!" I actually mean, whenever I say "I like ASM" or "I prefer Webb's to Raimi's" its for the reasons Fenske goes on for so many pages about.

So, yeah. To each his own, but Fenske speaks the truth.

Truth?

pr0xyt0xin · 01-09-2013, 07:35 PM

Sure. In the entirety of his analysis what did he say that was completely false? Considering most was opinion I doubt you can come up with more than a couple things.

pr0xyt0xin · 01-09-2013, 07:36 PM

That is, if you even read it all.

chaseter · 01-09-2013, 08:58 PM

Opinion is neither true nor false...was my point. You said to each his own but the dude is speaking the truth..so those that disagree must not be able to see the truth???

pr0xyt0xin · 01-09-2013, 09:17 PM

Its the truth that it's both his opinion and my opinion. That's a fact.

Not to mention MANY (if not all) of his points of analysis are near irrefutable. Because his explanations are so thorough. Like that the film was made as the first part of a whole trilogy, for instance. It's quite clear, and a logical, factual argument in favor of ASM that the story was made to be concluded in a sequel. Thus allowing more time for character development and a more visceral beginning middle and end.

Or the fact that Flash was a dynamic character. While you may prefer him as a static throwaway caricature of a plot piece, most would agree that having him grow and change like an actual human is much more interesting.

I could go on...

chaseter · 01-09-2013, 09:55 PM

Please go on.

pr0xyt0xin · 01-09-2013, 10:00 PM

Could... but have better things to do. Maybe later.

Mostly, I think he was just very strongly agreeing with me, and thus feels my opinions are 'truth'.

That said, I suppose you could always read what I have to say and decide for yourself whether or not my arguments are merely opinions, or (perhaps) arguments that contain 'truth' upon which I based my opinions.

To that end I certainly never lied or intentionally said anything untrue in my posts. So I suppose it would be accurate to say that I speak the truth. Yes.
