<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>All pre-movie debate and a few glaring plot holes aside, Spider-Man 2 was damned good. Go see it.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Yes, I'd say it was superior to the second one in almost every way. I need to see it again though, I was too tired at the midnight showing</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Yes, the second one was better than the second one, that's for sure. : )</div>

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>MacGuire is the emo version of Peter Parker, but I think he manages to pull it off. Spiderman has always been a wiry dude anyway, so I don't know why Toby's small stature should matter. I think Kirk Cameron would've been a better choice though : )</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>The problem I have is that Peter Parker that we grew up watching on TV's supposed to be a head taller than Mary Jane and built like a real Action Hero, not a head shorter and built like Bart Simpson. I just can't picture Toby Macguire as Spiderman, it's like getting Mcaully Culkin to play Batman =P</div>

PostPosted:**Fri Jul 02, 2004 7:52 pm**

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, the one that was on like 10 years ago.</div>

PostPosted:**Fri Jul 02, 2004 8:49 pm**

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>why though....Peter parker was never musclebound and is still a thin little pencil neck geek. and MJ was also always taller...</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Bah most people base their opinions on such like cartoons are past movies, that's why when they see something different it's kinda hard to accept it.</div>

PostPosted:**Fri Jul 02, 2004 11:09 pm**

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, it's funny how people act like the cartoon is the source of the character when it's just an unfaithful adaptation of the comic.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Consider that the animated series might have been a vast improvement over the original =)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Just saw it last night, good fun. I just finished reading my buddies Ultimate 6 mini-series too. Some very cool arch-villains they can choose from for the next 3.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Personally I'd go with venom. the classic spidey villain. although they could go with a team of something like a teamup of spidey villains like rhino and shocker or some stupid crap like that</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>My woman forced me to see that, kicking and screamin'. Dear Lord, did it suck, as much as the first one</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Venom isn't a 'Classic' Spiderman villain, he was created in the 80's, almost 15 years after his debut. He was the product of a stupid storyline that the fans hated.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>My Web of Spiderman #1 is worth a decent amount, unless things have drastically changes recently</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I know but who is the spiderman villain everyone knows. more poeple know who venom is than most any other spidey villain</div>

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Yeah, dude. TOTAL chick-flick : )</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>That's why they weent for them first. they wen't with the first. if they want to go in order crappy villains come next for the most part....vulture, electro, rehino, etc. do something with the sinister 6 would be fine but some of the other early spidey villains are lame as hell</div>

PostPosted:**Mon Jul 05, 2004 3:46 pm**

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Hell, half the sinister six are lame too.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Lizard and the new Green Goblin (Harry) are by far the more likely choices (the latter almost for sure). The films have been far more traditional Spidey than new golden age (early 90's) or recent.....that's why the focus is so much on the human struggle part</div>

PostPosted:**Mon Jul 05, 2004 10:51 pm**

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I could picture lizard and that would actually be pretty damn cool as he is another tragic villain like Ock. It would lead to some more interesting human struggle plotlines as spiderman mainly defeated him with words rather than fists....</div>

<div style='font: 14pt "Sans Serif"; text-align: justify; padding: 0% 15% 0% 15%; '>I thought the plot was suprisingly tight, which is pretty impressive for a comic book movie. But I agree. The movie is great. It's neck and neck between Singer and Raimi for best super hero movie director right now....</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Actually, I'm awaiting Singer's version of Logan's Run. Apparently, the author of the book wants to go back to the original roots. They couldn't do that back in the 70's, because of technology and Hollywood bullshit.</div>
