In MiB, the part where Will Smith joins up this great organisation is the best part. The stuff about fighting this big lizard form hell (well, outer space) is such a Hollywood must-have. It distracted me greatly from the story about Will getting adjusted to the fact that there are indeed aliens, and they're all around us. I liked the part where Spidey finds out about his powers tremendously, but I didn't like the Green Whatshisname. Didn't like the artwork, mask, impossible vehicle, etc.. He put too much Batman-style nonsense into an otherwise pretty down to earth (no pun intended) movie. would have been content with Spidey beating up rapists and muggers for the rest of the movie, and seeing how becoming a celeb affects him... that kind of stuff.

Green Goblin must go. I love all that "Spidey saves the day" simple stuff. Also the scene at school with the lunch tray and the slo mo / matrix type shots during the fight with Flash.

Maybe I see too few action movies, but I've never seen it like this before. Way cool. What about all the ‘swooping around’ and ‘dangling’.

There are 2 things i didn't really like. 1. In the movie spiderman looked like a wuss. If you read the comics you'll notice that spiderman isn't such a dork in real life. Also in the comics when he is spiderman, he usually makes funny coments. However that didn't happen in the movie. 2. In the comic, the web was shot from some fluid he created and was attached on his wrist in small container. However, in the movie he shoots the web from his wrist too but it comes from inside his body. This is actually better than in the comic but if you make it the same at least make everything the same then. I hope they will also make another movie featuring Venom and Carnage as ennemies. Just my 2 cents... I liked this movie but not that mutch. There are 2 things i didn’t really like.

In the comics he gets bitten by a radioactive spider. Now in the 21st century it's a genetically manipulated spider. Personally I like him being somewhat of a dork in real life as it makes you (well, me) feel like I too can be a superhero if I happen to get bitten by a bug or land on earth from Planet Krypton - even if I don't have a high "cool quotum" or biceps to start with ;-) Yeah, but they never said the movie was the same as the comics.

(Incidentally Suzero, surely you should reference Christopher Reeve not Dean Cain re. Superman. After all, Reeve's Superman is definitive.) The Making Of indicated, from interviews with people like Sam Raimi and Stan Lee, that they had tried to be as true to the comic as possible, but obviously had to snip, change and evolve with the times ie. the genetically manipulated spider, rather than the dated radioactive one. Actually, there's a lot of that in adaptations and sequels - like in Terminator 3, where they (almost) seamlessly integrated the previously-unmentioned Internet into the ultimate rise of the machines.

I also love Margot Kidder MUCH more than Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane. Does anyone know about the supposed jinx on actors in Superman series/films? There's Christopher Reeve's tragic (and let's face it: ironic) accident and Margot Kidder was apparently found trespassing in someone's Beverly Hills garden, babbling and no longer quite sure of who she was. I think there are more similar stories but don't remember exactly. Teri Hatcher's career perhaps? Hmmm... that's obviously jinxed too but I think she did that all by herself.
