'Same Time, Same Place'
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.
Which origin story is true to the comics? Or was there more than one? I thought the first trilogy's origin story was the official one, so this one is confusing me.
For instance, Batman, in whatever incarnation, is always orphaned young when his parents are murdered, right?
if you are a FAN of the character, you will probably like film better than someone who is a fan.
Did you leave out a "not"? Or do you just mean if you are a great big oh-god-I-love-Spidey fan, versus just being a yeah-I-like-Spider-Man-stuff fan?
the latter. I meant "fan" with a big-F, vs. fan with a little-f.

Thanks! Although I think I'm more confused than ever.
I just got back, and I completely disagree with le nubian. Well, except on Emma Stone, because, duh. I enjoyed the way they handled the origin story (yes, again), I was never bored, I thought Andrew Garfield was wonderful, and I laughed quite a bit, as did the rest of the theater.
I thought it was a great first Spidey movie, and I look forward to more. I have whitefonty thoughts, but I'll wait till other people see it. And by people I mean Steph.
I just read a comment saying that it was better than Dark Knight, pure awesomeness...
But then he said there were two deal-breakers he could get past, and also that Tesla really created a Death Ray, so I'm not sure I can make head nor tail of his commentary.
We're skipping the 5:00 show in lieu of a nap (not a euphemism). I think we're going to a later show, though.
I completely disagree with le nubian.
not surprised, man. that's almost something we can count on!
it was better than Dark Knight
mommy, someone got in the bad crack again.
This is why I'm good skipping Magic Mike.
And it does make sense. I can't just focus on the top right GIF, and not get distracted.
