Yannick_B posted:That being said, I think it fouls up Spider-Man basics so bad (Peter Parker would never go "the best promises are the ones you break" that is straight-up vile and the entire opposite of the character) on top of other stuff-it sinks the movie for me. I've always thought that the core of Spiderman is doing the right thing no matter what and in that point the movie delivers.

Just came back from seeing it, FANTASTIC movie. I didn't found it too cluttered and everything got a (passing) explanation so there wasn't any asspulls. However it did felt like a preamble of sorts, like we were just seeing half of the story therefore lacking a real conclusion and plenty of plot hooks, in few words it was like seeing a comic book with actors with everything that entails (silly origins, weird character quirks, 'see you next issue' kind of endings, non-stop action). Really pleased with it.

DrVenkman posted:My issue is almost that it feels like the latter half one movie and then the start of another. It's a little all over the place. It borrows liberally from Spider-Man 2 as well, but I still don't think they've nailed the 'Good guy goes bad with power' quite as well as that movie did with Doc Ock, which both set him up as a believable good guy and then provided pretty good reasoning for him to turn the way he does. That's actually two movies now where they've tried and failed to get that right. This just has that weird stuff with BJ Novak that gets no payoff (Though you know there's an edit out there where he gets his commupance) and then you have Harry who goes from being I guess a good guy (but still sinister for no reason) to out and out villain without a thought. To be fair, I don't think we should thought of Max like a good guy. He was pretty unhinged before turning into Electro, he was just much of a coward to do what he really wanted to do. Harry on the other hand was predictable and something out of a comicbook (or as Baron Bifford says, a cartoon), things wouldn't gotten so bad if Peter would've been honest with him since the beginning. I did found awfully convenient that his genetic defect made him goblin-like though.

Baron Bifford posted:No, it's not the logic that I question, I just don't think it really fits the character. I don't think Peter's father should be some sort of super-spy archetype. You're aware that the Parkers were super-spies on the comics, right? The movie version is way toned down. If anything, I'm bothered by how easy they kicked Harry out from Oscorp.

But this sort of retcon isn't common on modern takes of superheroes? I'm not big on Marvel but I doubt than Tony's father being involved with the supersoldier research was there when Iron Man was created. I think is more an effort of the writers to give a logical explanation of the character in turn. Spiderman origin doesn't exactly hold up nowadays (mainly because people is more aware that radiation doesn't work like that).

Crisco Kid posted:Electro went from worshiping the one guy who treated him with respect to wanting to kill the same person, for what? Because Spider-Man got some screen-time in Time Square, while simultaneously being the only person who still treated Electro/Max with respect and dignity? To make that narrative work, I have to ignore that Max seemingly became infatuated with Spider-Man because Spidey treated him like a human being instead of walking all over him like the other people in his life. I have to ignore how, when he sees himself projected on all those Time Square screens, he doesn't react at all to his RADICALLY DIFFERENT appearance, but just the fact that he's being seen, which is different from popular, which is a different motivation from being treated with respect. And when the guy he fanboys is literally saving his life and giving him yet more positive attention, I have to pretend Electro feels... betrayed?

Timby posted:Kurtzman is writing and directing Venom (now titled Venom Carnage Thought Venom was dead on the water (again) since it was never mentioned when they gave release dates for Sinister Six and ASM3 or when the story about a female lead spinoff broke. I just saw an elminated scene where Richard Parker is alive and he talks to Peter after Gwen's death. Is on the home release? Might had to pick it up if so.

Oh, that explains it. I got the news of the spinoff through CBR and Newsarama and they didn't mentioned anything else. Still, the odds for Venom seem pretty low and Newsarama questioned Kurtzman directing it thanks to his recent commitment to the mummy
