*How is a high school student who can't even afford a Yoo_Hoo able to buy several cases of an industrial-grade biocable? Furthermore, how does no one recognize the biocable used by Spider-Man and either trace it back to him or cut off the source? And why do the web shooters have a fucking muzzle flare? *Garfield undergoes no character development because he's whatever the screenplay demands of him at any given time. Skateboarding cool kid, dangerous brooding loner, antisocial jerkass, science prodigy... all of them completely unlikeable to me. |

And really, how much more character development did Maguire's Spidey go through in the first movie? He starts off as an inconfident nerd, becomes an arrogant jerk, then a generic superhero. Garfield begins as a little kid to an outsider high-school student looking for his parents to a suddenly powered-up kid who chooses to ignore his responsibilities because of his arrogance to a vengeful vigilante looking for his uncle's killer to a hero trying to save his home and the people he cares about from a monster he helped create. |
Not sure where the topic of Spider-Man came from, but I'm cool with it as I'm bored right now.
I loved The Amazing Spider-Man. Peter looked and felt like a normal kid. Gwen was intelligent and not just a damsel in distress. Peter actually got bruised from his fights as Spider-Man. He also made smart ass comments to people in the costume, which is something the Raimi movies severely lacked. My biggest complaints was the entire thing revolving around Lizard's plan and that this movie is really just the first episode to a high budget theatrical tv series. As such, if its sequels are bad, this movie becomes worthless. I enjoy Raimi's duology, but they are not without issues. The first movie is pretty good outside of that god awful Goblin suit. My god, they got an actor with an amazing scary face to play Goblin, USE IT!!!! The second movie, though, is like 80% Peter and 20% Spider-Man. The plot just doesn't make sense (you lose your powers because you don't want them, riiiiiiiiiiiight), Doc Ock was just mind controlled, Dunst really showed how terrible her MJ is, it ended on a cliffhanger, and someone seems to be screaming every 10 minutes. That is not to say it is a bad movie, as Jameson is fantastic, the elevator scene is great (in both versions), Campbell's cameo rocks, the action is good, it had a lot of great moments (and Aasif Mandvi), it's just brought down by the plot, MJ, and Doc Ock not being evil. |
Keeping in line with The Amazing Spider-Man discussion, apparently Mary Jane was cut from 2.

They spend the entire movie trying to set up Pete x Gwen. It would feel too "HS drama" if they introduced MJ in the sequel just to shake it up. That, and I'm just having bad visions of Dunst MJ to be welcoming of another film iteration of her. |
