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

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 second that notion. I can't help but wonder what goal he ultimately hopes to achieve with his near constant, absurdly over-exaggerated smear campaign of the Raimi films is...

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.

A budget doesn't mean **** when it comes down to if a film is good or not. Basically you're saying that it's because of the smaller budget that those other films didn't have a chance at being good.

I always thought it came down to script and the actors/director, but I guess not.

 

[chaseter]

He might as well not go see this movie with its measly budget.

It's a matter of working with what you got, Raimi's movies, especially the 3rd failed with what they had.

Yeah, but that wasn't necessarily because of not using the large budget properly. A lot of the hate was for some of the stupid **** like the unnecessary dancing and all the crying, as well as the emo Parker. Late minute addition of Venom when Raimi already had his story and villians in mind.

 

[Majik1387]

I was including the budget and the talent involved in the film together. A budget like they had in the third doesn't make things better on its own, but it definitely helps in the making of the movie easier. The majority of the talent involved sucked in their own rite.

 

[bullets]

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.

I really is too soon to judge everything for me. I'm waiting for official pics to make up my mind.

 

[The Batman]

As a guy who's been here since the first film dropped, the spidey boards have made a complete 180.

Raimi's spider-Man used to be the greatest thing EVER. Better than any comic book movie ever made. So great that Batman and Superman in the same movie couldnt beat it at the box office.

Now, people kinda treat it like the Burton/Schumacher films.

Doc Jones is right, if Webb's Spider-Man is more faithful to the comics and more fanboy friendly, more people will turn on Raimi. There will be "Raimi vs Webb" threads littered all over the place. The same thing happened on the Bat-Boards after "Batman Begins".

 

[bullets]

Raimi's films were a failure? This is news to me. I certainly was let down by Spider-man 3 but not enough to delude myself about the success of all those films .

 

[I'm Old Greg]

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.

ahhhahhahhahh wtf

Yep, and it's expected sadly.

In terms of adaptations, yes they were a failure for me and some select few. Again, SM3 brought the converters because it was so much different than the first two or something.
Sure, they were box office successes mostly, doesn't mean everyone's gonna love them.

It IS sad that this sort of behavior is expected. Just like with whatever the newest, trendiest technology or fashions that come along. Everyone is quick to accept the newest, shiniest thing while denouncing and slamming what had come before as lame or outdated...all but forgetting the positive aspects or what they had liked previously.

 

[Figs]

When it comes to the excessive Raimi hate all of a sudden, I agree that it's bull ****. With saying that, I do realize that not all of the Raimi haters are the ones that turned only because of this new film. That's fine if you never liked Raimi's films from the start.

When it comes to how many people are *****ing about the new suit, I can't wait for next year already. I want to see how many people(as usual)will change their tune once they see the film. That's how it always is. Some people will stay hate it, and with good reasons hopefully, but a gopd number of you will change your tune, I guarantee it.

If they were a failure to you on a personal level then that makes sense. I thought you meant they weren't widely successful. I've seen some people try to rewrite history about it.

Yeah, but with a budget like that you could hire much better writers, visual effects company, composer, actors and director, they didn't even half try. A 258M dollar budget and you're making a mediocre film that has the same quality as Fantastic Four and Catwoman. I know those other film had crap directors, but what does that say about the one directing the 258M dollar film?

 

[Mace Dolex]

The costume looks fine, who cares if a real teenager doesn't have the skills to make a costume this is a movie for christ sakes.

It's about time they're waking up and realizing that better comic book films can be made (Thank you Dark Knight). As more comic book films are made with higher quality than Spider-Man's, you will began to see more people realizing how mediocre they truly are.

Of course there's going to be Raimi vs. Webb threads, it's unavoidable and inevitable.

Guess who wrote the final script for SM3? Guess what movie he just recently also wrote the final script for...

I will give you one guess.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Ugh, MORE Webb vs Raimi? Webb hasn't DONE anything! Please give me a film I can watch before we compare.

These fights are stupid. Can't we appreciate both? I enjoy the Nolan Batman films, but guess what? I love Burton's too! Blasphemy, I know, but if the reboot ends up being good (which again, we don't know), that doesn't mean Raimi's films suck. Their different franchises. These ludicrous fights are a waste.

Shaq?

 

[craigdbfan]

Well I for one love the Raimi series.

People say it got a ton of things wrong but the movie was an amalgamation of stories since the 60's. Thats a lot of material to cover in relative short amount of time.

Plus Peter's personality has changed various times, not greatly but subtle changes in how he acts depending on the writer in the comics all the time. Where are the complaints then?

This has always been painfully obvious. Maybe I liked Tobey's Peter Parker because despite what some may say he was witty. For example in SM1 when he comes home after the field trip Aunt May asks him if he'd like something to eat and he responds "No thanks had a bite". That line is still sharp as cheddar IMO.

I don't know I feel as if I got a pretty good interpretation of Peter Parker with Tobey's portrayal. Some call him mopey and emo but I considered all of that understandable as going through a gigantic genetic change and having your uncle die all within a span of a week is sort of traumatizing.

Just like people are telling us to give Webb's series a chance despite the changes, I don't know why the same can't apply to how the characters were portrayed in the Raimi series.

 

[©KAW]

I'll give peace a chance, but not directors directing a Spider-Man film. You either deliver something damn good/great or you don't.
