Last time I checked, who ACTUALLY gives a crap about the original Superman movies? Besides you people, of course. They are horrible. They don't matter.

Apparently everyone, The new Superman movie virtually is a continuation of the original. And Sam has'nt exactly made his affections a secret as the Spidey films have used several gimmicks and cues from Superman to fill the stories. And judging from the latest photos he's still doing it. Richard Donner's approach and execution have influenced virtually every Hero film that has come after it and has yet to be touched. Having said that I don't want it to be more "Super-Spider-man".

Red K does NOT split Supes in SM3.

It's a synthetic Green K that Richard Pryor had made because he couldn't figure out what the last ingredient in Kryptonit was... so he substituted TAR as an ingredient (he was reading from a pack of smokes at the time). Instead of killing Superman like they thought it would, the green K slowly warped him into a bad guy, eventually splitting him in two.

The movie overall was pretty crappy, but the fight between Clark and bad Superman is still one of my favorite comic movie moments.

Yeah, if you actually see the movie, it´s handled in a pretty cheesy way, it´s almost comedic. The idea in Spider-Man 3 is for Peter to go a darker path, the pictures clearly suggest a sort of darker tone. We can blab about "originality" for days - Pimp will jump at the opportunity, exactly as I predicted he would... It´s not a general idea that makes it fresh or interesting or not, if we are to be rigid nothing can be considered original. It´s the elements you combine and add and remove that make it feel interesting. Both Spider-Man and Superman gave up being superheroes in their movies, and they´re both interesting stories in their own way with their own particular take on the idea, different motivations, different results, etc. The same will go with Spider 3 and Superman 3.

So i'm not allowed to respond to an insult towards movies I like?

I don't remember what made Supes a sexual deviant in Superman III, but we know that Spidey's black suit corrupts him.
I am so sick of Tobey Maguire, he is so boring. Always the same stupid dazed dufuss look on his face. I can barely tolerate him as Peter Parker.
Seeing him trying to play the corrupt and deviant Peter Parker will be very funny to watch. God I hope this actor steps it up a notch in this third spidey movie, because he is so blahhhhh.

okey-dokey.

okey-dokey then.

 

[GreenKToo]

awesome...

oh and for those of you that don't think spidey takes from the superman films, clear indications of this are simple things like the unbuttoning of the chest to reveal the symbol on his chest...

it's not a spidey trademark it's a superman one tha tis copied...

spidey's trademark has always been his mask, he can be spidey without his suit on and with his face covered but he can't be spidey without a mask, the mask is the focal point of his superhero identity.

but the films have changed it to his chest symbol, even making it larger to be more noticeable.

clear cut corellation of idea borrowing.

Look at her pop belly

 

[jrd550]

Look at her pop belly

Yep, she looks chunky to me, especially in that profile shot with Raimi, I'd still go out with her, but she looks fat. If i had to guess though it must have something to do with the role.

 

[Pyro Man]

^ hmm, still open, you must'nt have done it righ...

Anyway, i like your theory, it doesn't really fit for film1, but both Superman and Spiderman 2 dealt with jacking it in, and it seems like Superman and Spiderman3 deal with the "dark side"

Yeah and nuclear man is sort of an evil spiderman version and so if he isn't featured prominetly till spider-man 4 (if there is one) it will be alot like superman 4 (even though nuclear man isn't exactly a clone).

Very flawed theory, I know.

 

[Duende Verde]

Is it me or does Gwen look fat?

I thought she looked like that because she has a wire harness under her clothes.

 

[not_a_victim]

Look at her pop belly

1. Its POT belly.
2. She's wearing a harness for the wire work for that scene.
3. Thank god she hasn't fallen victim to the H'Wood notion that females have to be rail thin to be attractive.

Spidey never "lost" his powers over a woman in the comic. He gave up being Spider-man willingly because he was so underappreciated and constantly being attacked in the media and blamed for stuff. Raimi cleared ripped off Superman 2. Why is this simple fact escaping everyone?



Peter did use his powers to help win a fight so that he could buy a car. I guess you could call this self gain but greed? Did Peter come off as someone who wouldn't help someone if given the chance? Everyone wants to and needs to make money. Why shouldn't he? He let that robber go out of vengence for not getting paid not because he was too self centered to bother. This was one of the biggest blunders in the first that not many ppl catch on to.

movies don't get direct translations from the books. stories were combined and molded together to fit a theme.

In the comic books peter has lost his powers, and he has quit being spider-man. that was taken from the comic book not SuperMan. Quit trying to promote superman returns.

I loved how they pulled off the death of uncle ben. I thought it worked great.
