Do you still think it's overrated though?
2006-03-01, 5:08 PM #6
Not really. The first one was kind of overrated, I thought, but the second one was a damn fine movie.

The first was 'meh' for being the highest grossing film EVAR. The second was just plain awesome.

Am I the only one that absolutely hated the second movie?

Seriously, the only thing that kept me from walking out was the hope that it was going to get better.

Could you please explain to me what it was about that movie that you didn't enjoy? I throughly enjoyed the movie and would like to understand the mindset of one who didn't like it.

Maybe I was just expecting something different than what the movie actually was. {DISCLAIMER: This is my oppinion}

I donno. It just seemed very corny. Not in the sense of bad special effects and cheesy dialouge (which there was a bit of each in my oppinion), but in a sense that it didn't seem believable (probably not the right word, considering it's a superhero movie).
I really liked the first movie. It was a great story filled with likeable/interesting characters. The second movie seemed like a giant rehash. Kind of like all the FPS games that end up the same.

The conflict between Peter and...his roommate that wants to kill him seemed like something that came out of The OC. It didn't seem believable.

The fights were also rather repetative. There are only so many things you can do with spiderman and a guy with 4 metal arms, I suppose. They also did the whole "I'm going to throw this at you because you can't afford to drop it" move too much.

All in all, it just didn't have any feeling behind it. The whole crimefighting bit was replaced with combating the big guy with metal arms. That's pretty much all it seemed to focus on.


Truth be told, I've never really thought about why I didn't like it. I just knew that I didn't.

I'm sorry to have to be the one to tell you this, but if you thought the first Spider-man was better as a movie than the second one...well, lets just say...everyone has their own preferences...and you have a lousy one lol no offense...but seriously though...the first Spider-Man, while it had it's share of good parts, also had a laundry list of awkward parts that just didn't work well. The second movie was vastly superior filmmaking, even though it isn't perfect
The top ten times in history when using the "F" word
was appropriate.....

9) "Where did all these *&%#ing Indians come from?" - Custer 1877

If I want to watch a good Sam Raimi movie... I'll watch The Evil Dead.

I didn't like either of the Spiderman movies.

  • MJ is a two-timing whore who leaves men standing at the altar, and we're supposed to be happy for her.
  • Peter Parker is so self-centered that, even when he has the physical ability to stop it, he knowingly lets guys get mugged.
  • BAGS. FILLED. WITH COINS.


When your two main characters aren't likeable, it's rather hard to enjoy a movie.

To start off . . . I will concede the third point to you, although a relatively minor thing like that shouldn't ruin the movie for you.

The thing with Parker is, he had up to that point given everything he had to helping others. After that doctor's advice, and deciding to no longer shoulder that burden, Peter finally lived life for himself. You could say the same of a rich man walking by a beggar and never giving to charities. Yet you crucify the character of Parker for it.

In terms of disliking M.J., I guess it’s because of my particular view and the way I look at the idea of love that I see her situation how I do. When you have a chance at true love . . . You run to it. But then again that might be just my opinion.

Spiderman II sucked because it was all Peter Parker, no Spiderman. **** Parker, I want more webslinging. There was a bank robbery, and a thing on a train. That's about as exciting as it got. It's a comic book movie. Where's the action?!

Christopher Young is a damn good composer. I'd say by the teaser poster its pretty apparent that emotional music will be needed, and Young shines at that (see The Shipping News and Wonder Boys.) Not saying that Elfman is bad at emotional music, far from it, especially with masterpieces like "The Ice Dance." I just do not see how having Young as a composer is bad.

Considering the main basis for that movie was the story "Spider-man, No More" I'd say it was really really faithful to the comics interms of having him not be Spider-man.

Doo you ever do anything aside from ***** and moan? I'm quite serious when I ask this question. I mostly lurk here and that alows me to really notice the large amoutn of time you spenddoing nothing but insulting or complaining. I was told somethign when I was young, "Only speak when you can improve upon the silence." I really wish someone had taught you that lesson.

It didn't ruin it for me. I just found it really funny.

Donald Trump isn't a hero. He'll never be a hero. Why? Because, if he gets bitten by a radioactive spider, he can pay to have the spider and its family killed, and he will.

In seriousness, Peter Parker is supposed to be the good guy. He's not supposed to be a "dirty hero". He's supposed to be the hero of the movie, but spends most of it just thinking of himself. That's why it was a bad movie.

Then maybe she shouldn't have **** on Peter?

Oh, and more reasons to not like Spider-Man: bad writing.

First movie suckiness:

*That whole bridge scene at the end with New Yorkers throwing crap at them.

*The whole "Yeah I know we haven't talked this entire movie, BUT I AM MADLY IN LOVE WITH YOU!!!" (And they said the romance in AotC sucked).

Second movie:

*That entire train scene with Jesu...I mean Spider-Man.

*The fact that Mary Jane is actually SHOCKED when the guy who she rejected over and over is saving her life, and in a Spider-Man suit. Oh, and she is somehow in love with him again.
I can't think of anything to put here right now.
