First one was better.

Simple and straight to the point. No contrived power-loss arc, and needless relationship drama with MJ.

Also, Green Goblin was a scarier and more threatening villain. Otto was a well-respected scientist who got in over his head and paid the price for it.

SM2 isn't bad by any means, but it downplays the same elements that made the original a decent movie. People prefer 2 because of the added emotional impact of:
>The Tragic Villain
>The Tension with Harry
>The collapse of Peter's life

etc. which are fine, but are handicapped by the aforementioned points (MJ, power-loss, etc.)

The original also had terrible, campy moments, but they weren't relevant to the overall tone of the movie, and neither were they part of the overarching plot.

Personally, despite loving to see how superheroes translate to the big screen, I think the reason I love Spider-Man 2 so much is that it's engaging without relying on "LOOK, IT'S THAT SPIDER-MAN THING. WE BUILT UP TO THE SPIDER-MAN THING". It's about a man having an identity crisis and another man coping with the failure of his life's work, just wrapped up in a stellar superhero skin. It's got strong characters, with good progression, and its actors/dialogue are campy but believable at the same time.

Standard Scale: 8/10
Superhero Scale: 10/10

You're correct. X-Men 2 and Wanted are the second and third best comic movies respectively.

Bad portrayal of Peter. This movie is about some broke ass autist dude that lives in New York and has spider powers, not Peter Parker.

Bad portrayal of spider-man. He's fat, slow, his strenght goes up and down as the plot needs it to, cheesy one-liners delivered as if he's a super hero loived by the people and the personification of good, he's basically superman, but with spider-man costume. That's not spidey.

The filming is just garbage, filled with scenes of characters breaking the 4th wall and looking to the viewer, awkward camera angles, and it looks like it was trying to play with cinema cliches, but actually fell for them and it ended up being cringe worthy only.

Bad acting all over it, and the stupid dialogue didn't help at all. Characters had the worst delivery for the worst possible lines. The romance was simply unexisting, the plot and character motivations made no sense.

This movie fucked up glorious JJJ, making him go out of character whenever his stupid son had an appearence for no reason.


I won't deny the movie's impact on the super hero genre, but god damn, nothing was good in this movie, honestly. It's Schumacker's Batman for Spider-man.

He's not fat or slow, and everything else you've complained about is pretty in line with Spidey as a character, much more so than Superman.
>The filming is just garbage, filled with scenes of characters breaking the 4th wall and looking to the viewer, awkward camera angles, and it looks like it was trying to play with cinema cliches, but actually fell for them and it ended up being cringe worthy only.

Superhero movies should be campy, not whysoseriuos edgefests faggot.

Hey Charles, stop taking the damn drug, mind control Trask, have him shout "Die mutant scum!" and then attempt shooting the president.

Trask either gets shot on the spot or sentenced to death, best case life in prison yelling "the mutants made me do it!".

Alternatively have him confess to what ever he was arrested for at the end and taking a shit on someones desk for good measure.

Baaam, Mystique doesn't get to do anything, Trask is eliminated, his program terminated, movie hours shorter.

They haven't, and since the 80s they've been pretty strictly for teens and adults since that's when video games and cartoons took over as childrens prime entertainment of choice

Camp has no place in the genre and is generally loved only by faggots who probably should stick to pic related

>Sounds like Pete to me.
That's because your first contact with Spider-man was the first movie.

>He's not fat or slow, and everything else you've complained about is pretty in line with Spidey as a character, much more so than Superman.
No, he's pretty fat and slow, he's a muscle brawler, not a dodgy agile web user as he should be. And the whole "super hero" potrayal is superman's. He's loved by the people, saves cats from the tree, saves old ladies, saves the day and says "ma'am". Not to mention the waving american flags behind him.

>When does anybody look at the camera?
Doc does so when SUSPENSE kicks in when he's talking to his arms about his evil plan of killing Pete and then asking him to get spider-man.

>Superhero movies should be campy, not whysoseriuos edgefests faggot.
No, and no. Super hero movies are not a genre, the tone is set by the tone of the story. And spider-man 2 is a romance/action movie, it has no place for that comedic campiness it had.

>Lolnope
Yep. Stop denying it, JJ was a good character, and it was ruined by lame dialogue and context with his astronaut son.

>Yep, you're a retard.
Boo fucking hoo, nice argument.

I still enjoy them but the Spider-Man films haven't aged well at all. Go back and watch them, the dialogue is pretty stilted and they're quite cliched.

There's still some great moments though. Doc Ock's origin scene is terrifying to me.
