Homecoming Favorite Spider-Man suit so far?

[blake c]

Yeah, I remember I had a 2004 SM2 figure. The blue was dark as hell.


I gave mine to my brother and was looking at it.
Care to elaborate?

2/4 pictures are showing. I've had my action figure for years. I gave it to my brother recently

 

[darknight7.1]

Honestly, Spider-Man 2.

I have one huge problem with TASM2 suit and it's so small and can be fixed so easily but it just isn't.

The placement of the Spider logo.

Here is Spider-Man 2:

and here is TASM2

If it was just moved up, honestly I would give it to TASM2 but it just annoys me. Remembers me of how when I saw The Dark Knight Rises and it was the first time I noticed Bale's eye wart and couldn't stop looking at it.

I believe they placed the logo where it is in ASM2 because of Andrew's extra long torso. If Tobey was to wear the ASM2 suit I'm sure it'd look awful, because he has a much shorter torso. On Andrew the placement seems right, if you want to keep the proportions of Spider-man we are use to. t:

Also, Andrew was never shot from that anglein the suit for ASM2. Raimi went to great links to make sure the symbol was noticeable during shots like the above of peter.

 

[The Joker]

I was comparing it to the SM3 suit

No you weren't. Show me where you specified you were.

and thats not even a picture from the movie.

Two things;

1. Yes it is a shot from the movie. It's the same suit from the movie, too.
2. Even if it wasn't a direct shot from the movie what difference would that make? That wouldn't make the suit color magically change. It's the TASM 2 suit. Plain and simple.

Here ya go. A screenshot from the movie during the train fight

Are you really trying to tell me that shade of blue is different to this;

I never said it wasn't blue.

I never said you did. You said it was barely blue. I corrected you saying it was very blue.

Personally, though, I always had the impression that the SM3 blues were a little bluer.

Don't know where you got that impression from;

Edit: the top picture is manipulated as hell, btw. Here's an actual screenshot from the most recent blu-ray release:

Don't be absurd. None of these pics have been edited. The Raimi suits had the same shade of blue as the TASM 2 suit;

No ifs, ands or buts.

 

[SpideyK]

Sorry, Joker but what the hell?

The colors on the top picture you provided before ARE manipulated. The colors from the Blu-Ray release, however, are NOT.

If you're going to ignore a screenshot from the actual Blu-Ray, then I don't know what else to say.

By the way, the ASM2 suit has nothing to do with this discussion.

 

[blake c]

@Joker DOn't mean to come off as insulting, but you realize in the movie they add effects such as lighting and shadowing etc. Not to mention, have you seen TASM 1 suit set pics? They are completely different than what we saw in the movie. The director does add changes in the movie. Set pics are not accurate sources to your claims.

I know, I don't know what hes talking about. I even provided a screenshot that shows it. I screenshotted that from my pc with the movie playing. What more do you want.

I'm not ignoring anything. I'm telling you straight the pic I showed you is just one of several available and it's not manipulated. I never called your pic false or a lie.

By the way, the ASM2 suit has nothing to do with this discussion.

Yes it does. I'm using it as a comparison to destroy the silly assertions that the blues were lesser on Raimi's than on that.

You're not coming off as insulting you're just coming off as ignorant. The Spidey suit in those pics, both set and official, is no different looking to the the suit itself in the movie.

The TASM 1 set pics were an exception since that suit got such an awful reaction when they were leaked during production that they made some tweaks to it in post production.

 

[blake c]

Btw heres proof I was talking about the SM3 suit not TASM 2 suit.

Could of just went back reread to figure that out

Um You really should learn more about film making and photography because you have no clue what you're talking about

 

[blake c]

Also, just look at the eyes.

 

[The Joker]

You're not addressing me there, you're talking to LEVIKUTZ. So how is that proof you were talking to me about the SM-3 suit?

Um You really should learn more about film making and photography because you have no clue what you're talking about

Is that the best you can come up with as a retort? Some weak accusation that I don't know what I'm talking about.

Run along and save the weak insults for the junior members here.

No where did I mention the TASM 2 suit. Whereas you had said thats what the discussion was about and not once did I mention it. So you're telling me, that what we see from set pics are the same as what is in the movie? I'm curious, because I think you are the only one to believe that.

 

[The Joker]

No where did I mention the TASM 2 suit.

Who said you did?

Are you making this phantom discussion up as you go along or something?

Whereas you had said thats what the discussion was about and not once did I mention it.

Where did I say that's what this discussion is about? I said I used the TASM 2 as a comparison to how the blue is similar to Raimi's.

Nothing more, nothing less.

So you're telling me, that what we see from set pics are the same as what is in the movie? I'm curious, because I think you are the only one to believe that.

In the case of this costume? Absolutely. It doesn't look different on screen. The only time the suits looked bright blue was in the promotional posters;

 

[blake c]

@Joker

If I'm comparing the SM2 and Sm3 suits, then why again did you bring up the TASM 2 suit? You're the one who drew the comparison. I'm not having a phantom discussion, and you just admitted that the promotional pics are different and can be changed. Plus that one of TASM 2 is not a good source to show a difference since that shot wasn't even in the movie. So we can't compare it to a set pic

 

[SpideyK]

I'm not ignoring anything. I'm telling you straight the pic I showed you is just one of several available and it's not manipulated. I never called your pic false or a lie.

Maybe I'm not being clear here.

Manipulated, as in color graded through the roof. I.E, very different from what we saw in the movie. I'm talking strictly in-movie, here. The promo shots from the movies, or whatever, I won't get into.

Yes it does. I'm using it as a comparison to destroy the silly assertions that the blues were lesser on Raimi's than on that.

You must have mistaken me for someone else, then. I never ever said the ASM2 suit was bluer than the SM2 suit. Actually, one of my wishes in the ASM3 suit thread, was brighter blues.

To be honest, Joker, I'm sensing some confirmation bias here.

 

[The Joker]

@Joker

If I'm comparing the SM2 and Sm3 suits, then why again did you bring up the TASM 2 suit? You're the one who drew the comparison. I'm not having a phantom discussion, and you just admitted that the promotional pics are different and can be changed.

blakec: No where did I mention the TASM 2 suit.
Me: Who said you did?

blakec: Whereas you had said thats what the discussion was about and not once did I mention it.
Me: Where did I say that's what this discussion is about? I said I used the TASM 2 as a comparison to how the blue is similar to Raimi's. Nothing more, nothing less.

What in that post you screencapped specifies at all that I said you made this discussion about the TASM 2 suit, or I said the discussion is all about the TASM 2 suit? I told you why I brought up the TASM 2 suit. To show the similarity of the blue between the two suits as a comparison.

You're having a phantom discussion with yourself. Is this some weak tactic to try and change the discussion because you were losing the previous one?

Plus that one of TASM 2 is not a good source to show a difference since that shot wasn't even in the movie. So we can't compare it to a set pic

For the billionth time, whether an actual shot made it to the movie or not is irrelevant. The suit didn't look any different, whether they used that specific shot or not.

You keep going on about how the shot has to be from the movie, well just to satisfy this weak argument, here are some screenshots from the movie;

Same dark blue color as the set pics, and Raimi's suits.

End of story.

 

[The Joker]

I know what you were talking about. You said it was a screenshot from the blu-ray. It's pretty clear what you're saying. I concede it's valid. Never denied it was.

You must have mistaken me for someone else, then. I never ever said the ASM2 suit was bluer than the SM2 suit. Actually, one of my wishes in the ASM3 suit thread, was brighter blues.

I never said you did either. I was simply using it as a basis for comparison to the blue color to show the similarity between the suits. It's blakec who's arguing about the blue color. That's why I was using it as a reference.

To be honest, Joker, I'm sensing some confirmation bias here.

Your senses are way off. The TASM 2 suit is one of the few things I have universally praised about that terrible movie.

 

[LEVITIKUZ]

Jesus ****ing Christ, I spent the last page reading about the color of blue and different shades.

 

[SpideyK]

I know what you were talking about. You said it was a screenshot from the blu-ray. It's pretty clear what you're saying. I concede it's valid. Never denied it was.

Good. So you do realize a screenshot is the source when it comes to analyzing color, right? Not promo shots, not manipulated (which it is, for God's sake) screenshots, not posters.

I never said you did either. I was simply using it as a basis for comparison to the blue color to show the similarity between the suits.

Okay, gotcha.

Your senses are way off. The TASM 2 suit is one of the few things I have universally praised about that terrible movie.

Thought you rated it 6/10? Looks like you've grown to hate it over time.

Anyway, I wasn't referring to the ASM2 suit when I said was sensing some confirmation bias. Again, I haven't brought up the ASM2 suit a single time - stop it, please.

When I said I was sensing confirmation bias, I meant that I felt like you were considering posters and promo shots, more valid sources than my screenshot straight off the Blu-Ray. It feels like you're ignoring it.

 

[SpideyK]

Jesus ****ing Christ, I spent the last page reading about the color of blue and different shades.

If I just step out of myself for a second, the whole discussion becomes pretty hilarious.

 

[The Joker]

Absolutely.

Thought you rated it 6/10? Looks like you've grown to hate it over time.

Unfortunately yes. I saw it three times in total, and the 6/10 was my initial viewing rating. But the movie didn't hold up on repeated viewings. Now I'd rate it a 3/10.

Anyway, I wasn't referring to the ASM2 suit when I said was sensing some confirmation bias. Again, I haven't brought up the ASM2 suit a single time - stop it, please.

Don't be so dramatic. I was simply using it as a basis of comparison to show the shade of blue on Raimi's suits in how they are similar.

You did also say to me you always had the impression that the SM3 blues were a little bluer. Thus why your favorites are a tie between those two. You're acting like bringing up another Spidey movie costume in this discussion is so way off topic in a Spidey costume discussion thread.

When I said I was sensing confirmation bias, I meant that I felt like you were considering posters and promo shots, more valid sources than my screenshot straight off the Blu-Ray. It feels like you're ignoring it.

Ok, you should have elaborated when you said bias. That's a bit vague.

 

[SpideyK]

Okay, Joker.

I don't know what else to say. I think we may have come to some sort of conclusion.

I've run out of steam.

 

[The Joker]

We could start talking about Spidey's shade of red next

Seriously I had no real issue with your argument, SpideyK. No hard feelings

 

[SpideyK]

We could start talking about Spidey's shade of red next

Or the zippers.

Seriously I had no real issue with your argument, SpideyK. No hard feelings

Of course not.

It takes more than just different opinions for me to dislike someone. There's only one user on here I actually dislike.

 

[spiderman2]

Tasm2 suite It looks a lot like the sm1-3 suit but with out the muscle suit underneath and I love the big eyes. I never noticed before the asm2 suit that sm1-3 the suit looked bloted kind of chumby because of the muscle suit. Tasm1 suit is just tearable looking. I know sm2 suit was a little briter blu and red then sm1 suit. Wasn't sm3 suit the same has sm2 suit? I don't notice any difference at all between sm2 and sm3 suit.
