Which was worse?

[The Green Goblin]

The more time passes I can live with (deny) the organics, but the memory of that damn Goblin costume lives on.

Nice of you to apologise herr logan i feel i was a bit harse now.

Here's my thoughts on the goblin suit since i haven't said already.
It think it could have been greatly improved if it was quite a few shades darker. mat rather than shiny. and something porus like latex. Norman could have taken the suit then desguised or personalised it by spraying it with some latex and adding a dark purple tunic. it would be nice if that tunic was old damaged and dirty as well. the mask and helmet would have to be completely changed tho.

I agree with whats been said so far the monvie betrade his charcter with organic webbing.I hate that even worse than the goblin costume because he is man-spider now.

To be accurate, we don't know for sure-- from only watching the movie-- if the suit was one piece or not. We never saw him dress or undress. It's possible that a one-piece suit would be easier to put on and take off, I don't know.
The suit wouldn't have the U.S. Army logo, yet, because the suit wasn't officially purchased by the government yet. Osborn had to prove it was useful first. I thought it was unrealistic that the government wouldn't want the suit and glider just because the General didn't like Osborn and the performance enhancing drug wasn't ready yet. As for the suit being a potential military device, I thought it would have been a good idea if the suit hadn't been so horribly conceived in its design.

I agree that your idea, if it led to them using the original costume, would have been better.

true. it could have been more than one piece, but the way I remember it from the movie, it looked like there was one big seam along the backside, so I guess that was the zipper. So thats just the way it looked to me.

You are most likely correct in thinking the suit was primarily one piece. In the movie itself, they don't go into it, but as movie viewers, we can make our observations.

spideyboy_1111, I have plenty of complaints about the X-Men movies. My strictness for correctness in comic book movies knows no bias. I just don't know if I have the energy to even start in on this particular site on all the failures with which Bryan Singer and company filled those movies. Best to pick a spot and keep hammering at it until everyone agrees with me. Then I can move on.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

im happy with the way that the X-men movies came out... singer isnt doing the "by the (comic) book" movie.. hes taking the characters... in wich he has kept true.. and hes putting them here in reality.. and creating a whole knew world.. thats what all the movies have been doing... I dont have a complaint about one comic book character in a movie.. why? beacause they all have the essence and they stay true to the personality... every movie has stayed true to who the character is and what they would do.

 

[Herr Logan]

This isn't the place for it, and I shouldn't let myself become entwined in a pointless and endless debate over the X-Men characters, but I think most people who read the X-Men comics understand that Cyclops, Storm, Rogue, Mystique, and Sabretooth, just for starters, were not portrayed in any way close to the "essences" of those characters that actually attract people to the books. They took shallow traits and ran with them. The good parts were left behind in exchange for a more generic movie that didn't have to take precious time from special effects and superficial romantic undertones in order to properly portray character exposition and development.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

im not saying history... sabertooh (aside from talking), mystique, storm, and cyclops (besides firmer comand) they all acted as who they are... thats how those characters act...

 

[Jaguar God]

spideyboy, if you're such a big X-Men fan then would it be too much to ask for you to actually try and spell the characters' names correctly? sabertooth? Get real, man. And your 'essences' theory really stinks. But that's just me.

This is false. Like I said, people who read the comics and pay attention will know the difference.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

yeah thats why comic fans alike still say that X2 is the best comic movie to date.

 

[Herr Logan]

Ignore the bait, Logan... just ignore the bait...

 

[spideyboy_1111]

all im saying is we are all never gonna get exactly what we want unless we do it our self... so just live with change.. thats what life is all about.

I'm trying to be civil to you and the other people here. Please do not condescend to me. I'm above this kind of suggestion. I know what life is "about," and mine is not about simply "living with" dishonesty and easily avoided failure from anyone.

 

[Arcturus]

Easy...easy....

I'd have to disagree on that. I'd go with Blade 2.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

just go look at one of the top ten fav comic polls... i know theres one some where on the hype.. always is..

 

[Batman]

As much as I dislike the Green Goblin costume,I dislike the organic web-shooters even worse.Green Goblins costume is simply window dressing "pardon my pun." organic web-shooters,on the other hand,both figuratively and literally,change the core of the central character.

Organic web-shooters create an entirely new and different character, hence the term "Man-Spider" fits him more appropriately now.While the Green Goblin costume is nothing more than a fashion tragedy/miscue.

 

[Hobgoblin]

I would have liked to have seen a Goblin costume that as closer to the comic version, but I can deal with it. I voted the costume. I really didnt care one way or the other about organics.

 

[StylishHokie21]

They both were actually not that bad.

I would like to take this opportunity to say I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE the idea of Mechanical Webshooters.

It pissed me off when every episode of Spider-man and everytime I picked up a comic he'd "run out" and had to "Refill" It always bugged me. Plus if he had mechanical shooters you know it'd be buldging off of his wrists and he'd look like a ******.

I like organic much better.


And this "Man-Spider" busyness is just stupid. He's still Spider-man. He now just doesn't have stupid canisters attatched to his wrists. WOOPIDY DOO! YOU'LL LIVE!

 

[MST3KPIMP]

you must have hated indiana jones whip as well.. perhaps if had been organicaly fused to his arm.
