The Amazing Spider-Man 2 With Great Sequel Comes Great Lounging - Part 2

[TheLastBlade]

I always found that family guy tries to be deep for no reason. At least, in the current seasons.

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

I'm watching Origins: Wolverine in preparation. It has a solid first half, but a messy second half, overall I don't hate it as much as everyone else does.

They screwed up deadpool pretty bad though

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

It's kinda like the Mandarin. It makes sense for the context and plot of the film, but overall it just butchers the original character.

 

[TheSpectacular]

So Grown Ups 2...I give it a 2/10(Also what I gave Green Lantern). The only funny scenes were the ones with Shaq', save one scene

Spoiler

where Chris Rocks son is taking his drivers test and pretends to be drink to impress frat guys and the instructor(guy from the first film that was in body cast) was like "Driving while intoxicated? MINUS FIVE!

. The comedies have been suffering this summer.


I might see Wolverine tomorrow with my friends.

 

[SymbioticToxin]

I probably won't see Wolverine this weekend, but I will see it eventually. My hopes are still at 'meh' level in terms of hope.

Same. I think it will be a good movie, but nothing great.

 

[SymbioticToxin]

I'm more anxious for Thor 2 at this point. Namely cause it comes out the weekend of my 21st birthday. Fun times ahead p

Saw The Wolverine. Best movie of the summer for me. Easily. Not a CBM-looking movie at all, even after the more comic-booky climax. Those guys are actually trying to save the X-franchise. And they're succeeding. There's no doubt X-DoFP is my most anticipated movie next year. Wow.

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

You know, I like the universe, I like some of the characters, I like Loki, but I just can't stand Thor himself. That makes it really hard to like Thor as a series for me. The first movie was nice, but it was the worse MCU origin film. I am not too crazy about Thor 2, but I think I'll see it just to stay on top of the latest happens of the MCU. Whereas the other MCU movies like CA2, GoTG, TA2, Ant-Man, etc I genuinely want to see and I'm interested in them.

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

The Wolverine was great, I liked it more than IM3. MoS still remains as my CBM of the year though.

 

[Oscorp]

I know you should be sick of my U-turns, but I rewatched ASM again and my old feelings for that film returned. It has so much genuine feelings and heart. The story is IMO good and I love the characters so much. I also realised that Horner's score is alot better than I remembered. Now I feel that I will miss him majorly in the sequel.

So my list would now have ASM back at the top, follow by SM2, SM1 and SM3. I hope ASM2 will take the top spot but I fear they've listened too much to whiny Internet fans. I don't want it to drop the heart and emotions.

 

[AF3619]

Anyone else notice the Spider-Man hat on the one extra in The Wolverine?

The scene where Viper and Hadara i think

What do you guys think about the larger influence people on the Internet now have on big products and projects these days? On one hand, we get a great Spider-Man suit, on the other hand, there's the risk of having a less intimate and emotionally engaging movie. We might get great action soundtracks from Zimmer but worse originality and less emotional music that we had from Horner. Sony acknowledges that fans want to see the Death of Gwen story, but due to Internet they might change it just to surprise the Internet audience who searches for every detail just to spoil themselves.

Xbox One's new user policy and functions seemed greedy at first glance, but might have actually been a good thing in the longer term. Now we won't know and now the two biggest consoles might become almost identical.

Movies in general spoil too much of the movie before release just to please the craving people of the Internet.

I'm pretty concerned about this. I feel that companies in general have become more and more afraid to take bold steps because they listen too much to what people (who are anonymous and could be a bunch of 10-year olds for all you know) say.

I'm just afraid that a loud minority are too involved in the process of film making these days. I'm afraid many things that made ASM great to many people will suffer because of this.

We got a better suit, and a new composer, but I doubt the Death of Gwen Stacy will be affected by what people talk about online.

I am pretty sure that wouldn't happen because forum fans comprise maybe 0.1% of the total audience

So if they really want to surprise the people,they would like to surprise the 99% who don't know anything about the Gwen Stacy Saga

Its different for something about X-box because there are much fewer casual audiences than they are in a movie theater.So they need to please them

Maybe you're right about that. It just seemed that way from what Andrew said about people not getting surprised these days since they're so spoiled with looking for leaked photos and details on the web.

EDIT: Still, I think the other examples are intact.

 

[Oscorp]

Avi Arad himself has said plenty of times that he checks the Internet to see what fans like and that the suit decision was purely because of that.

I mean sure, the suit is a positive thing to come out of this. But many times it seems to me that fans don't really know what they want (due to how contradictory they are many times). Many people just have some kind of agenda against certain films and whine about every little detail no matter what. Some people talk about Peter being an irresponsible *****ebag, but are perfectly fine with Superman causing explosions and destruction.

Not sick at all. I find myself having the same type of thoughts/feelings whenever I rewatch these movies. Sometimes I'm like, "ASM is so much better than SM2 cause of the characters and it's genuine feel." Then other times I'm like "maybe ASM isn't that great." I was watching SM3 the other day and said "Sm3 gets such a bad rap...it isn't too bad." Then I saw it on TV and was thinking "Good lord this is the most awful crap ever." lol. Honestly I think it has a lot to do with my current mood when watching the movies. Thing is, my opinion wavers a bit here and there but my overall beliefs remain true. I'd probably rank them SM2, ASM, SM1 and then SM3. It changes up sometimes based on the mood I'm in however that's my list and I'm sticking to it. t:

Yesterday I saw Star Trek Into Darkness. Great movie, same level as ST'09, but I thought that the first half was slow as ****. It gets better and better from there. Great Cumberbatch.

Today I saw Now You See Me. Okay movie, fun to watch. But damn, that's a ****ed up ending. It turned down a couple of notches of the movie for me. But it's okay.

Tomorrow I'll see The Wolverine. I have high hopes.

 

[Peydro Parker]

Wolverine was solid, better than expected. I hope there's a R rated blu ray version but that was as bad a$$ a Logan movie as can be for PG-13. That mid credit scene has me hyped for DOFP now.

 

[Victarion]

So does The Wolverine occur before X 1-3?

 

[Peydro Parker]

It's Logan's story after the events of X-Men 3.

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

I don't know guys, I'm kinda more excited for DoFP than TASM2. Only slightly. It's just the concept of DoFP sounds absolutely brilliant.

Nothing wrong with that.

Hell I didn't care about Man of Steel until I saw the trailers.
