The first movie was pretty small. I can't imagine this one going smaller than that. It would feel like a step down.
 
Day 36. The Armory.

that first pic there, never seen it before, so are we to assume its from ASM2?
 
I would like to see both suits in part 2, oh well. no big deal. also I really do love the fact Andrew just looks like Peter Parker to me.

Same here. Out of all the candidates, he really nails it for me.
 
Tobey is just a bad distant memory at this point.
 
Unless there is a row similar to the one Norton had with Marvel, I suspect he will return.
 
What do you mean by not a threequel, I'm talking trilogy. To me SM3, IronMan 2, The Dark Knight Rises are movies that went bigger and backfired. Meaning the smaller movie before them (SM2, IronMan, TDK) was much better to the general audience.

You're saying a film that tries to become "bigger and better" backfires, and yet your examples are mostly the third films in a franchise(except for Iron Man 2...that I'll agree with that backfired, but that was all because of the MCU wanting to shove S.H.I.E.L.D. down our throats), but TAS-M 2 is what it is...only the second film. X2, Superman II, Batman Returns, Spider-Man 2, Hellboy II: The Golden Army, The Dark Knight...these films are the sequels to the first installments and did not backfire. I doubt TAS-M 2 will backfire as well. The third films, sure, most of the time they do backfire, BUT...The Dark Knight Rises sure didn't. Too much acclamation the film has received to say it had backfired.

T'was far from being the greatness that is TDK, actually, I don't even think it was better than BB. To each his own.

That's great, but you wouldn't notice that same feeling with the general audience or even from critics. TDKR, majority-speaking, is right dab in the middle of Nolan's trilogy between BB and TDK.

No, I said a director who just want to make bigger movie, as in, more villains, bigger explosions, more action up the wazoo and more unnecessary characters. This was the case for me with IM2, SM3 and TDKR.

The over-whelming majority (fans/critics/GA) prefer TDK over TDKR. That's my point.
