Honestly...he did a pretty good job. Jamie Lee Fox carried his entire shitty movie with his performance kind of like how the black Human Torch in Fantastic 4 carried his.
The problem with Amazing Spiderman 2 is that its too similar to Spiderman 3. Too many villains
>Spiderman 3 had Venom, Sandman, and Green Goblin
>AS2 had Rhyno, Electro and Green Goblin
>>77743654
The scenes when he began letting loose on Times Square rivaled any scene with Alfred Molina as Doc Ock, and were better than any of the scenes with Green Goblin, Sandman, and New Goblin.
ASM2 is an enjoyable Spidey flick that was hampered by the producers trying to make it a conspiracy movie when all it needed to be was a superhero flick. Oh, and the Gwen Stacy scene at the end was PERFECT and heartbreaking.
I didn't like Amazing Spider-man 2. I thought it was bad.

>Honestly...he did a pretty good job.
no
They recast a white guy as a black guy only to turn him blue. And all of his lines were shit.
>kind of like how the black Human Torch in Fantastic 4 carried his.
that's true, but it's a shame he was just playing himself and not Johnny Storm
also it's kinda easy to be the most charismatic character when you're costarring alongside Kate fucking Mara
>>77743654
Maybe he would have been better if everything wasn't just a lead up to a Sinister Six movie, but as it was he was a pretty shit character who was trying to be sympathetic but just came off as stupid and crazy without enough time to get us to care about him being crazy.
Its very hard to make a crazy villain sympathetic

Can't really count Rhino. He didn't factor into the main plot at all.
He was awful, my dude
And the movie was too
>>77743654
He was terrible. He looked like Dr Manhattan robbed a thrift store. His motivations were terrible and his acting was shit.
Even the Lizard was better. Thank God Marvel Studios is going to fix Spidey after Sony literally raped him

It was better than that, it was actually the best villain scene in recent capeshit movie history.....however the scene being good does not make the character good unfortunately, and he was not

Get better taste, and/or don't just pick every reviewer you find in a Google search.

Wow, you have really shitty opinions. Did you like the crane scene too? Or how about when Peter shoots a web at Gwen and it look like a hand?
Just curious, are you autistic?
>>77746122
Even Based Red Letter Media called it shit.
Get better taste.
I agree OP, Fox did a pretty great job in his part. Wether or not he stuck true to what Electro is in comics is debateable, but he played his character well. My question is, was Electro mentally challenged? He was obviously off, but it seemed to the point that he might have had a disability.
bait thread

I'm talking about reviewers. It's one thing to recognize shit. It's another to competently explain why that thing is shit.

>that one guy who actually defends the mcu
>>77746173
>that one Sony employee who defends Sony's decisions and is Butthurt that Marvel Studios is making better movies
Most people actually like the MCU more than both shitty ASM movies.
By the way, Sony Employee. How's that Sinister Six movie coming along? You know, the one that ASM2 was made into a commercial for? Oh, that's right! GONE! Marvel Studios: Winning
>>77746259
>Marvel Studios: Winning
Can't wait for Captain America 3 to out perform Batman v Superman. Can't stop the Marvel train.
>>77746141
Everything you listed is better than challenging Ronan to a dance-off.
>>77746259
Holy shit, you really are an MCU shill.
No one ever believed they were going to do a Sinister Six flick, like no one believed that Zemo and Strucker would be lasting villains in the MCU, or that Zemo would actually wear his mask from the comics. At this point, MCU is treating its heroes like recurring villains. Regarding villains in the MCU, they all suck save for Grant Ward and Loki, the latter whom they neutered into being an angry mama's boy. The MCU has SHIT to brag about with regards to actual threats to the heroes.
>>77746259
Are you an idiot and also a faggot or just both?
MCU has not had one decent villain, everyone who isn't a casual knows this
>>77746522
Fuckin got em, good dubs soldier
>>77743654
1) Deviated too much from the comics.
2) The difference wasn't justified, it was just something else with the same name.
3) Really poor pacing.
4) Threw everything they could into one movie, from the biggest group of enemies to the biggest scene in Spider-man history without giving enough time to any of them.
5) Didn't look very good.
I was going to list a bunch of likes and dislikes but I realized I only liked two fucking things and hated everything else.
The first thing is Paul Giamatti's over the top performance. He's a crazy good actor and it was like he knew what an awful piece of shit he was in so he just went nuts.
The second thing is pic related. He even knew the fireman's names.
But yeah everything else was shit.

Best spidy villain is Doc Oc in spidy 2
