Yeah.... I don't know what to make of it.... Far as i know, they don't plan to mix it up. Didn't like it tho.

Just saw this yesturday, and I loved the feel of the movie.  The only tone problem I had was the people cheering with the plane crash thing.  The crowd cheers always seem so fake in the climax, and ruins it.  At least it wasn't as bad as the first one.  And the angle of the plane crash thing was a bit of a stretch.

 

I have been hearing a lot of negative reviews about it, so i was skeptical going in.  I was worried because I loved the first one.  The points the critics made are valid, script wise a few things should have been improved.  I mean, Electro is born by falling into a vat of electric Eels?  That is so stereotypically cheesy.  They did it in a really good style though, but the critics are right.  There should have been a more grounded explanation for his origin... or merely leave his origin as a cliff hanger accident, where we only see glimpses of what happened to him.  And the critics are right, a pocket protector?  How stereotypically nerd were they making his guy?  I liked Max, but they were showing no respect to the character.  Fox portrayed him well though

It was better than the actual original origin. Dude was struck by lightening while working on power lines.

i saw this last saturday and i have to tell the truth that i was actually pretty bored through out the whole movie.

i felt some really good parts were edited out, especially with electro.

you could really feel it buiding up through the scene and the music/electro's theme and then snip,nothing.

eg, when harry free's electro and electro captures the sceintist, pulls him towards himself, an intense feeling scene and before anything happens, all of a sudden the sceintist is tiedup to the frame and electro is all calm, now with those little round plugs on his suit. but where did he get that suit from 'cause he wasn't wearing it just before?was he?

did anyone else notice this in the movie? that alot of the strong,fleshy parts were just edited out or just incomplete?

i was ready to walk out the theatre by that time because i knew the rest of the movie would probably be the same.

although i think garfield did a better job at representing spidey this time around from the first one, i'm still a strong believer that toby's 1&2 were best and still better than this new one and garfield.
