      I promise not to give any spoilers away but they do stick to the comic very well. Good flick.

                      The special effects look like shit to me way to cartoonish looking.

                              it's already been wasted..... I buy tickets online... fuck standing in theatre lines....

                              but I don't care if he gets killed or not.... knowing one way or the other doesn't ruin movies for me... I still wanna see them. It's not about the plot for me.... I wanna see the graphics and the effects and the techniques they use, and all that shit.... I couldn't care less about a plot or a storyline.

                                Same here. Hell, every story has been told a million times. It is HOW it is told that makes it interesting. Take Steven King for example. The guy is a master STORYTELLER. He can write a story about rabid dogs, kids on a walk, and even a worn out vampire story and make it interesting as hell.

                                I enjoy the movies because they are the ultimate in art. Combine graphic art, music, storytelling, modern technology, and a little bit of character and personality, and, viola...movie magic. Never in the history of man has the artist had such a vast canvas to work with. Movies rule.

                                                  Actually, I was quite suprised that the theatre was about 3/4 full. This, mind you, was at 11:00 am on Friday. There was a ton of mom's in line (1/2 hour wait) that were purchasing tickets for later shows so I imagine that it will def. be sold out for the evening shows.

                                                      Just saw it with a few buddies. And I have to say, being an avid spider-man fan, I think the movie totally rocked.

                                                      I imagined they were gonna screw it up like they did to x-men, but the effects are amazing. Totally made me want to try jump off a high building when I got out of the theatre.

                                                      I would totally recommend this movie.

                                                        WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILERS FROM HERE ON DOWN
                                                        DO NOT READ FURTHER IF YOU PLAN ON SEEING THE MOVIE

                                                        I thought they did an AMAZING (no pun intended) job at the swinging, jumping, and general movement of Spiderman. Looked just like the comics come to life. The colors and lighting were good (a little too dark in some places but not as bad as most). The directing was above par, especially with the feeling of speed. Some of the effects have been played out so much that I cringe when I see them anymore but the fluidity and speed was portrayed very well.

                                                        The soundtrack was dissapointing. I really thought that Danny Elfman would create some memorable scores.

                                                        What did you think of the character's themselves? I always believed that the true appeal to Spiderman was his character. He was the "reluctant hero". I used to love how he would talk shit in the comics when he was fighting. They only did that once in the movie. Generally, I would have to say that I was dissapointed in the character/personality portrayed by spidey on the big screen. Peter Parker seemed too awestruck and dumbfounded in the movie. And what was up with all the Peter/Mary Jane quasi oh-aint-this-so-cute scenes? I counted seven before I lost track.

                                                        I am just being picky. I have waited for this movie for damn near thirty years. I will see it 50 times I am sure. Good flick.

                                                          Just got back from the movie and it fucking ROCKED.

                                                          If you think this movie sucked then you lick the fat guys ass who does reviews on TV. I never remembered which one was the fat guy, but that's who's sweaty, shit-stained ass crack you are licking. Burn, that's you, in case you were wondering.

                                                          My only complaint, and I have this for almost ANY superhero movie, is not enough superhero and too much of the regular people. Fuck that, I wanna see him kicking ass on every bad dude around! 120 minutes of non-stop action!

                                                          That and the score and theme did suck. At least the Superman and Batman ones got you pumped.

                                                              took my baby sister to see it today

                                                              my biggest question, is Spider-man gay.

                                                              Seems to be scared to bone the girl. My guess is he wants into batmans tights.

                                                                This movie fucked batman, superman and all others inside out many times.

                                                                  I mus say Lucas better pull some major tricks out of his ass in Attack Of The Clones...Spider-Man is shaping up to be my favorite movie of the year........so far I've loved Spider-man, Hart's War and We Were Soldiers this year and am really looking forward to Attack Of The Clones, One Hour Photo, Insomnia, The Dark Towers, Deuces Wild and The Hulk.........

                                                                            I am in Indianapolis at the Star Wars Celebration. I went to a presentation today where Star Wars Producer Rick McCallum (Lucas' right-hand man) showed 8 minutes of Episode II footage on a big screen with a digital projector set up by Texas Instruments. Included in the 8 minutes were several full scenes including Yoda whooping ass! Let me tell you, I have seen some nice theaters with nice projecters that make the movie look nice on screen, but I have never seen any movie imagery as breathtaking as what I saw today. The colors were awesome, the scenery was almost overwhelming in it's detail, and the actual clips themselves were awesome. Spider-man may be a really fucking good movie, but Episode II is a REALLY fucking GREAT looking movie. Talked to several people I know that were treated to the whole movie earlier in secret and they said it could be the best Star Wars movie of them all. Lucas heard all the bitching about Episode I being for kids and make Episode II for US! Some scenes had so much cool stuff it was impossible to see it all (luckily they showed it to us twice!).
                                                                            A few other tidbits that I heard during the presentation..
                                                                            Episode II DVD comes out this fall.. they started working on it last fall.
                                                                            Episode 4,5,6 (the original movies) will NOT be coming out on DVD till after Episode III

                                                                            Indiana Jones 4 IS happening and is happening soon! This is straight from the producer's mouth. They have a story and they have the time in between Episode 2 and 3 and Spielburg and Ford are free during that time so it is being done before the movie has to be called Indiana Jones and the Temple of Geritol.

                                                                            If you guys could see the presentation I saw today you would be drooling. Digital VS. Film is SOOOO different. The digital copy was enormously different and extremely superior in all aspects of presentation. Too bad there are only 19 digital screens in the USA.. It is SO much fucking better.. like having real shitty eyesight and all of a sudden getting good glasses. Night and day.. hopefully in a few years every major town will have a digital projection theater.

                                                                            Got to get some sleep.. going to get in line early tomorrow to get Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) and Billy Dee Williams (Lando and Mr. Colt45) autographs on some stuff I bought. God, I'm a fucking geek!
