Spider-man (2012) . I'm assuming he means Alvin Sargent
Oh, I knew that. I was kidding.

Alvin Sargent didn't write the script, he's polishing it. James Vanderbilt (Zodiac) wrote both scripts for the reboot and its sequel. There's a big difference between writing the script and polishing it.Alvin Sargent is correct. What are we all going to do? I am scared.

Although I prefer him not even polishing it, but he's bangin' Laura Ziskin, and she's the only one who can find the old man work.
I find Empire to be the best one.

Exactly. It's all part of a stupid bandwagon. It's funy how whenever we say this, they never respond.
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?
Blue fingers and hardly a belt visible from the frontI find this funny and depressing, but doesn't this have a few qualities similar to the reboot costume?

Mainly the torso and blue fingers.
Exactly!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".
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.
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.
Yes we did and most people were banned for their views simply because such opinions were a minority and naturally riled everyone else up, which subsequently led to flame wars and the such like. I'm almost annoyed that 98% of the complaints most people have now and are vocal about were adressed and was forseen by posters years ago. They're either gone or posting under new accounts and just cant be bothered tyo get all worked up and repeat what they said years ago while there were being persecuted. The reprieve is, we have a reboot which is shaping up nicely and have another chance for a possibly better adaptation.
