A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I made a horrible comment that has nothing to do with the movie Amazing Spider-Man because I have no knowledge of the actual content of the movie.

I should have thought twice about where I was before clicking "post"

I think people are annoyed by reboots in general. I know I was but seeing the trailer (and especially footage from comic con) has piqued my interest.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I don't get the dislike for the movie. I'm interested in it, because (1) no Tobey Maguire; (2) organic webshooters (because, really, is there something WRONG with having a preference for canon? and if so, why?); (3) more Spider-Man, woo!; (4) I'm assuming no horrific, mind-scarring Spidey-dance.

Also, I have no problem with Gwen Stacy.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm interested in it because I like the cast and director and also because we'll FINALLY get to see the goddamn Lizard. The trailer didn't blow me away, and the POV shots look silly (but I'll admit they make me want to see the movie in 3D because it will be like Spider-Man: The Ride ), but I'm cautiously optimistic.

I had a very limited viewpoint of Gwen. Not a dislike for the character, more a misguided attachment to canon. And now that I've done a little more research I feel even worse about what I said. Gah has she been abused.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I didn't see Laga's comment; I was mostly reacting to the idea (whitefonted 'cause this grosses me out something fierce) of Peter Parker shooting spider silk out of a zit. Not something I ever need to see, thanks.

Oh. Well, that doesn't happen in the movie, so you're good.

So the shot at 1:21 isn't in the movie?

I don't consider that to be "Peter shooting spider silk out of a zit," no. As we have established, he has mechanical web shooters.
