Poseidon Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I don't think TASM had bad WOM, it was just not great enough, to generate excitement and make the first trilogy forgotten. I still think it's accepted as a good try, but just too close to the original, that may not have been the greatest movie, but was one of the first big superhero movies. If TASM was the first one, it would have been the same success as Raimis movie or at least close to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Have we an inkling of what WOM is so far? If you go by here, I'd say it is very mixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wasn't one original thought in that film, except for Peter being sarcastic as Spider-man. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 If there's ever a reboot of the reboot, my hope is that the first film does away with the origin story in the opening credits a la Spider-Man 2 or The Incredible Hulk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poseidon Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) No. This would be like the previous Godzilla movie that flopped and the raimi version the Godzilla movie that will be released in a few days . Oh come on. The first Spider-Man may have been a story of right place at the right time, but looking at it from todays standards and even back than. It's really not the greatest movie of all time. That Green Goblin in Power Rangers-Style would haven been killed by critics today and also, I never thought, that Maguire was a perfect spider man and he never quite connected with Kirsten Dunst. Also, the dialogue and the story... It's a nice movie I can watch from time to time (6,5/10) but it's far from being flawless. Of course that's just my point of view.

CoolioD1 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) i can't believe they even re-did Uncle Ben's death. You can't re- do that. LOL These new movies don't give a shit about uncle ben. He died over chocolate milk, and denis leary's death is the one Peter's all guilt up about, not uncle ben's. Hell, he never did find the guy who shot him. I forgot how that was totally dropped. Maybe they're saving it and in the third one the shooter will get a job at oscorp and fall into a vat of sand...

At least he's looking at numbers and trys to interpret them, without attacking or making fun of users in other forums. I guess he would be an enrichment.

Yeah they totally dropped Peter looking for Uncle Ben's killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
