The Amazing Spider-Man Marc Webb to return?

[Jexx]

Yet the photo still remains pinned up to his wall. Stacy telling Peter what he knew the motive of the masked vigilante didn't make Peter realize that with great power comes great responsibility. If that were true, then he would have no reason to pursue the killer anymore. Then that means that Captain Stacy made Peter Parker become Spider-Man. What a great origin story.

Really? He would still want to pursue the killer so that he could turn him into the police.

Even after Peter ultimately lets him go, he still holds a grudge against the killer and wants him to be in prison. Think 'Spectacular Spider-Man'.

Also, Pete still realized that he was responsible for Uncle Ben's death. That in itself should teach him that he is responsible for the fate of others. What you're talking about isn't the lesson of responsibility, but the lesson that anything you do won't make up anything for the person that you essentially let die.

I thought Captain Stacy made Peter realize the cops were doing that? Why did he stop pursuing the killer for the rest of the movie then?

 

[Spider-Fan]

Take a chill pill everyone and stop with the petty crap. Debate points, but please stop this stupid endless bickering of Raimi hate/love and TASM hate/love. Be adults.

Name me a movie that has two of the main plots for character motivation dropped halfway through the movie to serve only for sequel bait.
GO!

The motive isn't dropped, it's a trilogy, you'll see it play out in the next film. Why is that so hard to grasp?

Maybe because the Lizard was terrorizing the city?

 

[LegendAssemble]

Can't people just accept the Raimi films were great and this movie was too! If you want to debate about something, at least make your case why Webb should/ should not return. But don't use story points because as we know, he didn't have a great deal of control.

 

[Jexx]

We DON'T know he didn't have a great deal of control.

I like the Raimi movies, along with TASM.

It doesn't really seem like it, but whatever it's not worth arguing at this point, both were good and I'm happy to leave it at that.

That's when panic arises though that directors want to just leave breadcrumbs for future sequels. Because that's what Green Lantern did.

 

[©KAW]

Green Lantern doesn't have breadcrumbs to leave. You don't need to tell your entire story in one film of a trilogy, it's why Gwen Stacy is still alive. It's like I'm talking to ******s.

Marc Webb is supposed to direct a 2014 remake of 'Jesus Christ Superstar'... but it's for Universal, not Fox. :/

Haha you come off as a little arrogant here to me. There's nothing to "accept" when it's something about opinions. I don't have to "accept" Raimi's films were great because I simply don't think they are. Others don't like Webb's film and therefore they don't have to "accept" anything either.

Also, we don't really know yet how much creative control Webb had.

Because Spider-Man 2 was a good movie and there's no debating it like people try to do. I personally don't care for Batman Begins what so ever, but I can recognize it is a good movie, just not my cup of tea. I get the same way with the Batman films when people used to be overly critical of the Burton films.

It's pretty obvious looking at production how much control Webb had over the plot.

I don't get why this bothering so many people, I'm not trying to start a fight or troll I'm just saying this shouldn't be an argument of "which one was good and which one was bad", because it's subjective.

 

[Jick]

Most likely.
And, once again, he took the responsibility into his hands to stop the Lizard.
When Peter went to the police station to tell Stacy about Connors being the Lizard, to me Peter really felt the need to help on the situation anyway he could and, when he saw that Stacy wouldn't believe him, he was still determined to stop what he believed was partially his fault.

 

[sontin]

And, once again, he took the responsibility into his hands to stop the Lizard.

...to clean up his own faults. He is self-absorbed. He gave Connors the formula to impress him. He gave Connors name to Stacy and don't say anything about his involvement. He let him down at the end after Connors saved his life.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Classy Kaw. Enjoy your reward.

What involvement? What they were doing was totally legal, Connors was the one that took it too far. If a doctor prescribes you pain killers, he's not a drug dealer if the person abuses them. And yes he is self absorbed he's a teenager and he's a normal kid, he has to learn not to be self absorbed. He's going to pay for it too in the next film don't worry, but its part of the story stop questioning the little details.

What LegendAssemble just said above ^

Regardless if it was or was not his fault, choosing to correct what he believed was his mistake is a sign of responsibility. He could just have let that for the police to handle. Just like bringing the eggs home at the end of the day shows a sign of growth.

He is fulfiling his assignments, doesn't matter how big or small they are, after a rough day of pain and tragedy. He didn't let that be an excuse.

 

[SpiderMarvelite]

Seen the film 5 times and cried each at Ben's death. To emotional, I love this Uncle Ben. He was down to funny, earth, a reasonable man who wanted whats best for his family. Oh and the voice mail made my break down.

 

[Jick]

Yeah, I especially liked that voice mail thing in the end while Peter walks in the school's hall.

 

[Jexx]

I don't understand how Peter gave Connors the formula to impress him. I thought Peter gave it to Connors so that Connors would have the missing link in the puzzle that had boggled Connors for years, maybe decades.

 

[spider-neil]

My impression was Peter was seriously worried about how the spider bite was effecting his DNA so he gave Conners the algorithm so that Conners might figure out the answers to cross species genetics and the answers would help Peter.

 

[Oscorp]

My interpretation of it is that when Connors mentioned it, Peter remembered it from the briefcase and simply wanted to help out.

 

[sontin]

He blamed himself for the creation of the Lizard. In the end he didn't care for Connors. He only wanted to clean up his own mistakes.

And yes he is self absorbed he's a teenager and he's a normal kid, he has to learn not to be self absorbed. He's going to pay for it too in the next film don't worry, but its part of the story stop questioning the little details.

What? He is responsible for the death of his uncle and Captain Stacy. He destroyed the lifes of his aunt, Connors and Stacy's Wife and the two younger children.

So how many people must die, how many lifes must be destroyed by Peter before he start to learn his lesson?
