I agree NuSpiderman was a great movie, glad it was successful, but Raimi was a good director and it was the producers that sabotaged him, not the other way around.LobsterFeng said:Thank you for saying what I was going to say. Bob really needs to realize that people actually liked it, and for that reason it actually made money.JaredXE said:and revisiting Spider-Man's turned out to be a complete disaster.
*Cough* It made over three quarters of a Billion dollars, Bob. It was not in any ways a disaster, and your wishful thinking isn't going to warp reality. Face it, it was a good and popular movie and I am personally glad that they fired Raimi's lame ass. When the men who hold the purse-strings tell you what they want in their movie, you don't fucking sabotage your own production and expect to be kept around for another.
My friends, family, and I all liked it, and it has a generally positive response from most critics. I honestly don't know why Bob hates it so much, I was expecting his review to say something about how he was pleasantly surprised. Because I sure was.Gizmo1990 said:I cannot comment on the movie as I did not see it but you cannot say it made X amount of money so it is good. Final Fantasy XIII sold well but I, like many others, hated it. I know 3 people who went to see Spiderman and hated it.
But I agree with you about Raimi. Him being gone is a good thing.
Anyway, Superman, yeah. I've always wanted to be a bigger fan of Superman and it looks like now is the best time since we're all kind of burned out on Batman stuff. I agree with everything Bob said though.
I am however glad we got to see a new direction in spiderman, so it worked out.
