Yeah they don't NOT want him. Isn't it a scheduling conflict a la Katie Holmes/TDK.
 
Well, the relationship between Peter and MJ made it seem like they were still in High school. I always thought that SM2 was pretty good because it was the Raimi movie that actually made Peter look smart, but after watching it again I feel like a lot of the scientific talk was pretty hokey..

I don't even understand why Peter was loosing his powers because "he didn't feel like being Spider-Man".

It, like any movie, has problems.

Peter lost his powers not because "he didn't feel like being Spider-Man." He had a lot on his mind, and it messed with his concentration. Same thing if you can't concentrate, you are not able to do the things you usually do well.

Spider-Man 2 further developed Peter Parker's character as Spider-Man, as he was still learning the responsibilities that came with this great power. He learned to balance out his life a little better, which of course leads up to the beginning of Spider-Man 3.

if that was in the new film fans would go nuts saying how they hated that he got stressed which screwed with his concentration making him lose his powers

but i have to say i never liked that part of spiderman 2 and i have to agree the film has its fair share of problems i feel personally
 
I always assumed that Peter loosing his powers had to do with the spider gods and stuff (Madame Web and all that), but it was never explained, so :/
 
I don't think Sam Raimi would have used the storyline about the Spider Gods and Madame Web. That's a little bit out there. This was based off of Amazing Spider-Man #50, where Peter gets sick, and so much is going on in his life, so he throws his costume out in the trash. Spider-Man 2 had its issues like any other movie, but if we want to go that route, so did the Nolan trilogy, Marvel Studios films, and some of the best films ever made (such as the Godfather).
 
I never watched the Godfather.. mafia stories don't really interest me.

But yea, I think all movie have issues.
 
I can't take people that attack things, because they prefer something else seriously at for obvious reasons as well. When people say those movies are "bad" can get away with SM3, and maybe saying SM1 had it's problems but thats about it. It annoys me seeing people who act like these movies are the same quality as Batman Forever. Tobey was a fine Peter Parker, you just hate him because you never got a George Clooney!

Wow!

First of all, look up the word "opinion" in your dictionary. I can say how much I want that I think Spider-Man 2 is heavily overrated and nothing more than "good", with cheesy, kiddy fluff put into it that I've never associated with Spider-Man. Sure, Spidey is for all ages, but not as kiddy as Raimi made it seem to be. TO ME! That's my view of Spidey and the films. I have ALWAYS had these problems with his films. There's no stupid "fact" that says I can't have my problems with his view of the characters.

Secondly, "You just hate him because you never got a George Clooney!", what the hell do you even mean with that?? :S

Third, my comment "How old are you? I can't take people who say things like that seriously, for obvious reasons." was referring to the part I bolded in your post. Saying "I'd like to see you do better!" is easily one of the most childish 'come backs' I know. Comments like that are just stupid beyond words. KAW@ isn't an actor as far as I know. He doesn't get payed to do that kind of stuff, nor does he have the specific education for it. So, you mean one cannot state a dislike of someone's acting because he can't do it better himself? Don't you realise how stupid that is?

EDIT: Spelling mistake

You don't have to like mafia films to enjoy the Godfather, trust me. Its an excellent film. I would recommend watching Part 1 and Part II.

And yeah, every film has its flaws no matter what. Spider-Man 2 to me is the best superhero film, and I absolutely love it. If someone disagrees, then that's fine. Its all opinion.
 
I think The Avengers is the best superhero film, so yea, opinions. :)

People who get it. Watch and learn LegendAssemble.
 
It would be great for Marc Webb to be off this trilogy. They should probably re-boot the story again just so Uncle Ben can get a more motivational death, actually say the right lines, and Peter Parker can stop being so selfish.
 
We're all selfish, and I like shellfish.

I greatly disagree with your opinion.

...No.

I would only want the franchise to be rebooted again if Marvel got the rights back to Spider-Man. And if it was rebooted, it wouldn't retell the origin. They could pull another Incredible Hulk story, and tell the origin in the credits.

The often-quoted Spider-Man theme of "with great power comes great responsibility" is widely attributed to Uncle Ben. However, this was not initially true. In Amazing Fantasy #15, the original version of the phrase appears in a narrative caption in the comic's last panel, not as spoken dialogue. In fact, Ben has only two lines in the entire comic.
 
I would hate to reboot TASM after only one movie. :P

Because that makes or breaks a Spidey film :o
 
The thing with TASM is that it is a setup movie. If there was no Spider-Man 2, then SM1 would have at least been a good film on its own. Without a TASM2, it would feel so incomplete.

But if this movie didn't get a sequel, then please let the rights go back to Marvel.
 
Exactly. If there isn't a sequel, The Amazing Spider-Man isn't that great of a film to watch. I came into the theatre knowing that Webb planned this story that this first film is just one chapter of.

It's nothing like BB where that Joker card could just be an easter egg; this film leaves open Uncle Ben's death with his killer being out there still, Osborn dying, someone mysterious visiting Dr. Connors, Peter's parents being in part of some conspiracy apparently.

It's like when Green Lantern ended and we saw Sinestro pick up the yellow ring, but we'll never see what happens next. Or Superman Returns where we'll never know what will happen with Clark's son.

Didn't Uncle Ben give Peter the same exact speech he gave him in the Ultimate comics? That's what I have heard, so if anything, Uncle Ben said more of the right lines in TASM than in SM1

Some things are better left unresolved.
