Now THAT clip was much more enjoyable. I definitely had no problems with that one...Spidey still learning how to swing was awesome

Stopped reading at "awesomer"

Clip was a 10/10 though. Everything is SO RIGHT.

I agree. It was perfect... at least it was in my book.

Yeah I made that up

Word for word, legend. Word for word. Couldn't ask for anything better than that..well, maybe I could, but that'd just be greedy, right?

Love how he swings like an ametuer..The previous version had him swinging like a pro from the get go.This seems way more authentic

agreed i had a problem with that in the first spiderman film

plus he is being incredibly cocky

 

[Oscorp]

But did he swing like a pro from the get go really? Looked pretty unsure in SM1 as well, though not as well shown there as in this one

 

[Dragon]

Excellent man,simply excellent

Uh.. I guess you missed the whole car-jacking chase scene- Not to mention his slamming into the billboard?

Sort of. We see him practicing once where he swings into the billboard and fails miserably, and when he attempts it next when chasing the carjacker he sort of gets lucky and picks it up incredibly quickly.

I really liked both clips, and I kinda like that backwards swing he does.

So some people had problems with Andrew failing to adjust to the new york accent

I guess he puts those doubts to sleep

Well, as a Queens native, he sounds enough like me. I never doubted it though, I mean the guy is an acclaimed actor, he's no novice they tossed in the suit. He's a method actor too and those guys (DeNiro, Daniel Day Lewis) don't mess around

 

[Picard Sisko]

If you're talking about the "I'm swinging here", that's supposed to be a joke.
And as a native New Yorker, and a Brooklynite, I'd like to proudly say that we don't have an accent here. It's just the standard.

Most movies that take place in New York rarely have a cast with New York accents. Not that big of a deal honestly.

Yeah it seems that whole "I'm swinging here/I'm walking here" thing is an inside joke only New Yorkers get

The bill board was fine
The Car jacking scene was kind of him being unsure but it was still kind of fantastic.
Not to mention that was all CGI and this is practical swinging

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

Which is why it's so amazing.

 

[Picard Sisko]

LOL I remember in Forrest Gump, Lieutenant Dan in a wheelchair hits a taxi and says "HEY I'm Walking here!!!!!"

Yeah the first movie really skated over him becoming good at being spider-man. There was the first scene where he learned to swing and then of course him going after the car jacker but after that, it was just a montage to move time along

Ah I get it now

Silly me

 

[AbsractPo3tic]

Yeah, he got that from Midnight Cowboy. Dustin Hoffman's character is walking across the street with Jon Voight's character and a taxi almost hits him and he said the line..of course, the taxi wasn't supposed to be in the shot and Hoffman improvised the line because he really was angry and still in character. It worked, the director kept it and the rest is history

 

[Picard Sisko]

I wonder how much time passed between that scene and when we see the montage around the city.

 

[Spiderdevil]

BTW His eyes were yellow at 0:13
I hope they edit it out

Well, here he only actually makes one gaffe- bumping into the bus- other than that he's pretty smooth.

And this film has ten years of tech and an additional $100 million or so over the first.

 

[AbsractPo3tic]

Yeah who knows..I always wondered that but it happened so quickly and then of course you get introduced to JJJ at the end of the montage

For what it was, I think it worked. I enjoyed the first Spider-Man movie a whole lot.
