The Amazing Spider-Man Spider-Man Reboot Costume - Part 1

[Mary Jane Watson]

mehhh, I proud to say that I never watch any of star war movie

 

[socool]

compared to the Sam Raimi's costume, the new suit sucks

compared to Raimi? Yes. It isn't that great. But I'm still relying on the fact that it will look better in the film.

This might be a set suit (I dunno)
The suit has to be brighter for the cameras
The spy pictures have terrible lighting.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I don't know what's worse..the Raimi or Lucas Bashing.

Probably Lucas.

I think it's a tie. Though, Raimi's may be a bit more because some people seem to act like they hated the films even before S-M3 when really they didn't.

 

[Majik1387]

No, quite a few people weren't a fan/hated the Raimi movies before SM3, myself included. I don't discount Raimi's other movies because I didn't like his Spidey movies though.

All of the Star Wars movies suck, so saying which levels of suckiness are is pretty much just a waste of time and energy for me.


Nothing about this movie has stuck out as a negative for me, only one minor costume complaint.

 

[A Necessary Evil]

TMNT 1990 didn't have bad acting, wooden characters, etc, etc. That's my opinion.

Let's rethink this....

 

[socool]

I find this funny and depressing, but doesn't this have a few qualities similar to the reboot costume?

Mainly the torso and blue fingers.

compared to the Sam Raimi's costume, the new suit sucks

i actually like the new suit more so far. it may not retain the details the way raimi's did, but this feels more like spiderman does for me. hes skinnier, the colors are more accurate, and i was never a fan of the raised webbing. i can deal with a stripe down the leg if they get the feel right.

 

[NinjaCarm]

EDIT: My bad. Wrong forum. This is the TMNT/Star War forum

Yeah, out of hand off topic threads are rampant nowadays.

Back to the suit, I hope it looks better on screen in action. I'm a little discouraged with the lack of black webbing in the spy photos.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

A "few", but defenitely not the majority.

 

[Doctor Jones]

If their were people who disliked it, did they have the balls to speak out and stand by their opinion in the predominantly Raimi loved days?

 

[Majik1387]

Yes, but they were mostly washed out by the Raimi-lovers. Then there were the converters during SM3.

 

[Goku Goes Crazy]

The costume keeps looking better and better. I can't wait for this movie.

What's the matter with you all, don't you think it's possible to hate these films pre-SM3. It was still the same mediocre in film we got in 2002. They even bashed the organics like you're bashing the new suit. It's common place around here. Get use to it, I've come to love it, you will too.

That's what'd I like to know. Like I said, I got chewed up like the wee little noob I was when I first voiced my dislikes of SM2 back in '05. Course, I was a freshmen in high school then, so who knows how I actually brought up my dislike of it.

Surprisingly, one of the posters who was civil (though he disagreed with me) about the subject with me was Herr Logan, a poster who had a reputation for being fairly demonstrative. Is he even still active?

Any who, the tide has definitely changed, most notably after SM3 came out. But it's the way of the world I suppose. However, even I get annoyed with some of the blind bashing that goes on towards the old films. There were definitely things I disagreed with, but even SM3 wasn't that bad. As a film, it's really not that bad at all. There are many films out there much worse. And honestly, SM3 isn't even close to one of the worst Superhero movies made, let alone movies in general.

 

[©KAW]

Yeah it is.

 

[SpeterMan3]

From Raimi to Star Wars? Um, okay.

 

[Infinity9999x]

Yeah it is.

If you're referring to my sentiment that SM3 wasn't one of the worst movies or superhero movies made, then I can only say that I think you have a rather odd way of rating quality in films.

I find movies like Steel, Batman and Robin, Electra, Ghost Rider, Catwoman, both Fantastic Four movies, Supergirl, Superman 4, The Spirit, The Dolph Lundgren Punisher, or the 1990 Captain America to be much more deserving to be called some of the worst Comic-book films ever.

SM3's quality, and story was miles ahead of any of those films. And, as I've said before, Spider-man 2, while not high on my list at all in terms of being an adaptation of my favorite character, is a great film. Film critics and the general public alike agreed on that.

Again, it's the difference between adaptation and the product itself. JAWS is a great movie. Horrible adaptation. You don't have to have one to get the other. It's nice when you get both, but sometimes it doesn't work that way.

Honestly, if you think any of the Star Wars prequels are awful, I think you're being a bit harsh. There are tons of very bad action movies that make the prequels look great.

I think the reason the prequels get so much flak is that they happen to be connected to one of the most popular film trilogies in history, and films that happened to revolutionize cinema. So yeah, they had some big boots to fill.

Sorry to be off topic... but that's exactly the reason the prequels sucked. They bore absolutely resemblance to the original films...they had terrible plots, dialogue, characters, etc... the biggest sin of all is that they weren't even fun! Not even a little!

I don't want to derail the thread any more, but I'll just say this, the dual with Darth Maul was great, so that alone I would say is fun. And as I've said, there are many more movies that are much, MUCH worse then any of the prequels. The problem is, when you have tons of hype behind a film, when they end up being mediocre, or even all right (Ep3 really was pretty good) people tend to jump on it because they had such high expectations themselves.

Any who, back to the whole Spidey-suit thing. I personally would like to see some more official pictures, because I think we all know how much better lighting and all that can make suits look. TDK suit looked much worse from spy/set pics then it did in official pics, and it looked better in action then in those pictures. It still wasn't great, but it wasn't as bad as I at first thought it would be.

Plot wasn't perfect, but good.
Dialogue....bad in all 6.
No fun? oh please.

RLM strikes again...his "reviews" are terrible.

Wait a minute... weren't you the one who just made the "passionate" post 2 pages back... asking/admonishing posters to NOT bring up Raimi in this board (Reboot Board)????

You think people hate Raimi now? Just wait until July next year. If this film is great expect far worse things in this thread. And hopefully rightful bannings will occur.

But why must we always turn a reboot thread into a Raimi thread. Bashing or not. For God sakes people, if you hate these movies so much stop talking about them. It's not that hard. I don't care if you hate them, good for you, but these threads always change into something with Raimi.

So since this is a reboot thread, let's talk about the reboot. It's like people love to complain and moan.

We are getting a new Spider-Man film. A fresh start. Which has great potential. Bad costume or not, I'm looking forward to this fresh approach. Let's focus on that. We can have our debates, but not in the circles where these threads have been going for months.

*Sylvester Voice*... "YOU WERE... YOU WERE!!!"

Do the words "To Thine Own Self Be True" ring a bell??? t:

Terribly on point, that is. They may not be funny, but the fundamental points he brings up concerning the story, characters pacing and plot all ring true. Most people just say "the acting was wooden/lame" or "the effects sucked". Sorry, but the real problems are the things most people don't think about or aren't aware of. It's unfortunate...and not to branch into hyperbole, but George Lucas destroyed the whole franchise himself.

Yeah, but those films didn't have a budget of 258 million dollars. What's SM3's excuse? And the word QUALITY should not be place in the same sentence as that film. Good for film critics if they like SM2, didn't Roger Ebert also give "Garfield The Movie" the thumbs up, great taste in films, eh? I'd rather think for myself. And I throw SM3 in there with the rest of the horrible comic book films. I don't make excuses for mediocrity.

 

[chaseter]

I really think KAW is Armond White. The more he posts, the more I am convinced. He hates a movie just to make a scene and the reasons he comes up with are the most ludicrous things anybody can read on here.

I'm not in this to bash Raimi. the anticipation for the first flick when I was in 8th grade is what brought me to the hype way back when, i must have seen it 6 or 7 times in theaters, and Spider-Man 2 is one of the greats of the genre. But Spider-Man 3 is pretty bad, just from a story level, a structural level. it's almost unrecognizable as a sequel to the first 2.
