So you're just a neanderthal?

[OriginalMiles]

That.

That is exactly what I am planning on doing for BvS and Age of Ultron.

And then I'm gonna cave.

Jesus Christ, dude he didn't like the movie and said so in a comic strip (which are pretty much known to be "snarky/sarcastic/belittling/extremely basic").

As for your last question I'll say this "I don't need to be able to sing in order to tell a bad singer that they can't sing"

No you don't, but don't try to call yourself a good singer then either

And to the first part, regardless of the medium, how is being snarky/sarcastic/belittling 'professional' conduct for a critic? You're one of those rare/fun people that genuinely, all around aren't worth anyone's time, so feel free to respond but I won't be able to see it G'day mate!

I just think its a guy expressing his opinion through a comic, not a professional review, the same way HISHE and Honest Trailers operate.

Just because you like something others don't do not mean you have to be hurt or offended, get a grip.

 

[Morbius]

Babies.

 

[LEVITIKUZ]

Why are we talking about singing?

 

[OriginalMiles]

Because singing is in this film.

Peter does another jazz scene but this time it's a night club.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Here's a review someone did of TASM2, in comic form!

Haha, nicely done, and pretty spot-on!

 

[GuestStar2004]

Ooohh a comic review, lucky the Raimi films never had them if you dissect them you would End up thinking they were bad films

 

[SM71]

Don't know what's happened to this place, it's like there's been an invasion or somethin I'll come back when I actually see this film, til then I'm outa here!

See ya'll fellow friends after my viewing!

 

[Alt-Josh]

That comic might be harsh, but it still made me laugh. Especially Peter's "I can't right now! Too sad about my dad!" Lol. And "Magnets. How do they work?" Haha. C'mon guys, let's laugh here. It's one movie. Not the end of the world if it doesn't turn out exactly the way we wanted. "Chin up."

Some people take these things way too seriously and first and foremost one's own opinion matters more than anyone else's, but some don't grasp that concept.

Great post.

Sony aren't going to be too bothered by a low RT score if ASM2 makes money but if the GA start voting with their wallet and ASM2 has a disappointing BO I think they will reavaluate S6, Venom and ASM3.

 

[Napoleon]

I'm sorry, but I seriously doubt that the person who drew that has ever picked up and read a Spider-Man comic.

The worst part about the current situation is that we are looking at a MOS situation. Even worse than that, is the fact that no one saw it coming. I'm starting to wonder what Marvel could do with the franchise. At least then, we wouldn't have such a polarizing reaction.

 

[LizardMan07]

Didn't find a problem with the comic at all, I loved the film but it effectively sums up why you wouldn't as well!

Plus, it's hillarious and fun, both what a comic should be, and also what a spiderman movie should be! I think some of us are stressing out a bit over it! People are allowed to think and express that however they want! (Unless you're getting paid to by the SMH to post tripe cause I hate the SMH oh god)

Funny comic really.

 

[GuestStar2004]

Marvel would have 2 solo movies and have spiderman in the avengers, they probably wouldn't rush the sinister 6 like Sony is but when all Sony owns is spiderman so they have to work with what they have to compete with the avengers, justice league ect ect

I kinda saw it coming, if I'm honest. I've written about this elsewhere, but to me, 2014 is a bit like 2011, in terms of superhero movies. Like 2014, 2011 had 4 superhero movies on the slate: Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger, Green Lantern, X-Men: First Class. And back at the time, I argued that at least one of those films was going to be a letdown. At the time, I predicted First Class, but of course it ended up being Green Lantern.

This year, we have Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, X-Men: Days of Future Past, Guardians of the Galaxy. The fact that Cap and the X-Men are in the mix again heightens that feeling of deja vu! So once again, I talked about how law of averages dictated that one would be a letdown, but that the prediction was more difficult this time, as I was generally looking forward to all these films more than 2011's batch. But the one I settled on The Amazing Spider-Man 2, based on the vibe I was getting from the trailers.

If this DOES turn out to be the weak link of the 4, then I'd say we got off lightly. As it's a pretty underwhelming film, but it's no turkey. It's certainly better than Green Lantern. And if Spider-Man 3 can rake in cash, I'm sure this will do just fine at the box office.

 

[CyclopsWasRight]

Well written Keyser.

If ASM2 is the least best then were in for a great year.

Marvel would have 2 solo movies and have spiderman in the avengers, they probably wouldn't rush the sinister 6 like Sony is but when all Sony owns is spiderman so they have to work with what they have to compete with the avengers, justice league ect ect

Well they put together Avengers in just four years after Iron Man set the stage. S6 will be four years as well. If Sony is rushing then Marvel rushed too

 

[GuestStar2004]

They rushed Avengers in just three years after Iron Man

2 movies a year, different casts, while the spidey ones are same cast

Some cool news....

I don't think we've heard the last of Norman Osborn. Matt Tolmach had some pretty interesting things to say about him in a recent interview.

 

[GuestStar2004]

What interview? Where?

 

[Mikelus]

I kinda saw it coming, if I'm honest.

I saw it coming last year: http://forums.superherohype.com/showpost.php?p=26049933&postcount=974

When villains suck and the tone is off, you can't expect a good movie. The signs were there from the start with silly Electro, etc.
