World NOW which is your favourite Spider-Man film?

[Andrew Lucas]

Most of those votes came from when people were drinking the TASM kool aid.

And where's your proof? Invalid point.

And where's your proof? Invalid point.

Because the thread was made shortly after TASM 2 came out, and that's when the bulk of the votes came in.

Also what is your obsession with barfing gifs?

Is it to signify your stomach can't handle when you don't agree with something? SHH must be very bad for your health.

I highly doubt TASM2 themed kool aid even exists, so your point is invalid

Unless you can prove, beyond reasonable doubt, that TASM2 was featured on a kool aid bottle, you are empirically wrong, and andrew is right!

 

[The Joker]

It doesn't exist any more. It existed for the weeks following the movie's release. That's why the bulk of the votes for it were a 7 or above: http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=477303&highlight=review

If fizzled away, as it often does when the new shine wears off and people see how bad or flawed something really is. Same thing happened with Spider-Man 3. Look at the number of votes of 7 and above: http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=270765&highlight=review

So my point is quite valid.

Spider-Fan, you're a moderator for these forums, you saw it, too, right? Just to add some additional support from a staff member.

 

[LizardMan07]

That's a different point to your original one.

Your original point seemed to refer to a Spiderman branded Kool Aid, specifically of the TASM2 variety

If I'm correct Kool Aid is the American version of a sports drink/ energy drink, but I can't seem to find any sponsorships from Sony? (I'm assuming they'd runs sponsorship)

They definitely didn't have product placement in the movie for Kool Aid, perhaps you meant a different drink as I can't find it on google anywhere.

As to how an energy drink makes people vote on an online forum, well, that's for you to decide. Are you suggesting sony uses mind control? I might have to ring up customer support to sort out that slander, certainly a harsh comment. Hopefully there's not some anti-sony mind control clique forming.

As for your "hate clique", I don't know what you're implying, people simply disagree that Kool Aid is affiliated with Spidey, that doesn't mean people have some agenda against you, or even Pepsi if that concerns you.

So I don't see how spiderman 3 is related to this at all, I don't recall Kool aid there either.

Really odd statement

 

[The Joker]

Oh my goodness, it's a term of phrase people use for liking something because it's new or cool to like it. They say they're drinking the kool aid of it. It's a very common term.

I can post many more examples if you like. I've got over 25 pages of thread results with it in it from my quick search here on the Hype.

 

[LizardMan07]

Seriously?! I've never heard of it in my life, must be an American thing!!

Why Kool aid? What's the connotations with that drink in particular?

Also, why did you use SHH to reference a cultural thing? It's not wrong, but I find it kinda cute, haha. Like SHH is the number one source for societal references

Remember Spider-Knight posted here, so our museum of info is forever tainted

Edit:

It still makes no sense to me.

It's as if someone is saying; it makes no sense to me, I don't get why people are performing alien line dances with da Pepsi, I still liked man of steel.

 

[The Joker]

Probably originated from there yes. I'm Irish and I've used it many times.

Why Kool aid? What's the connotations with that drink in particular?

It's a play on terms of the name Kool. It's new so it's 'kool'. Lots of people like it so it's kool to like it too. They're drinking the Kool aid of such and such because it's kool to.

Also, why did you use SHH to reference a cultural thing? It's not wrong, but I find it kinda cute, haha. Like SHH is the number one source for societal references

Well we're on the SHH forums, with members from all over the world, and it is the most accessible source of info to show many different people using it.

Remember Spider-Knight posted here, so our museum of info is forever tainted

I don't see how him having posting here changes the fact that it's a popular and common term of phrase.

It still makes no sense to me.

I've explained it above. If you still don't get it, well that's your loss, but it doesn't change what it means and that it's a common phrase.

But most of all, that my original point to Andrew Lucas is valid. And he has his proof.

 

[LizardMan07]

Oh, of course it's not your fault it doesn't make sense to me. You explained it a bit more in that post anyway

your post makes sense considering thats what Kool aid means

I thought you were refreshing product placement or something

What is this supposed to prove? No date on it or anything.

If you're blind, that's not my fault. Sorry.

 

[The Joker]

That's all I get? Some silly blind insult, and another barfing smiley.

You're not even trying to prove yourself here.

 

[Andrew Lucas]

Yep, you just deserve one barfing smiley.

I did, but you only see what you want to see. Like Toby once said: "Not my problem."

jeez, I came into what I thought was a Spidey thread and it tuns out to be the SHH kindergarten...

 

[chaseter]

ASM2 is the worst Spidey movie and the worst superhero movie of last year. To see 19 votes for it shows that koolaid was involved. ASM2 was sooooo good that Sony is going to reboot again because it was so great and made so much money!!! Makes sense with the votes.

Anyways, apparently I voted for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 already. Nowadays, it's very close between that and the first TASM depending on the day.

This is absolutely pathetic. We are allowed to have opinions. Some of us like TASM2, ok? All you guys should grow up and deal with it. I'm sick of this competition crap. How about instead of arguing and belittling people's opinions we just talk about what we liked best in each film and why?? Seems pretty civilized right? Enough with this "drinking the Kool-Aid" garbage that Americans have seemed to come up with since their egos are enormous and can't accept different opinions.
