GHOST RIDER and F4 blew -- as do most Marvel films. They crank 'em out one after another without any concern for quality or oversaturating the market.

THE DARK KNIGHT next summer is going to be unbelievable -- can't wait.

If they found someone other than Christian Bale too play Batman I'd probably go see it. I'll wait until it comes out on dvd.

I don't think I've ever read a single DC comic... when I was a kid I bought hundreds of Marvel, though.

I read a few but not the main ones...mostly shorter lived ones.

I had, and would guess still do, have all the issues to Arak by DC.

Used to read an occasional New Teen Titans.

Other than that I was a marvel fan.

Just could not get into the whole batman, superman, wonderwoman justice league stuff. So generic and dull.

Ghostrider would have to be the worst just because of Nicolas Cage. :D

F4 sucked also but it had Jessica Alba in a skin tight costume....:thumbup:

I don't care for Cage either but I can watch some of his movies if the story sounds interesting (like this one) or if they have other actors in the movies he is in that I like (like connery in the rock and Sam in this one).

I wish they would have chosen someone else, a younger up and comer, to play the role.

Not sure about the next FF movie...I might rent it instead of buying that one as the first one was a let down.

You know what is normally the biggest let down to me with these movies? It's the bad guys. They just don't pull it off. I guess because many of them were just so cheesy in the original comics.

I mean the spider man bad guys are lame.

Maybe that is why I liked the Xmen movies...their bad guys, magneto, always were just better.

Jack was cool as the joker in the other batman movies but they did such a bad job doing those movies that it was not enough to overcome it.

Cousin of mine was always into DC while I was into marvel.

I thought Jim Carrey was great as the Riddler esp when he was destroying the batcave. :laugh2:

I really enjoyed this one. This one was a little darker than the first two. The 2nd fight between Harry and Peter was brutal...violent and some serious mind fricking going on. I thought McGuire did awesome in the dark mode.

I too wanted to see Venom more, but I was real impressed by what I saw. That was awesome special effects. Some people have complaints about the name Venom not being mentioned...how exactly were they supposed to do it? People knew who he was, not sure why you have to basically force that dialogue in the movie. It would of been a forced scene where JJJ names him for a newspaper article.

They left themselves some rope with the symbiote too...Dr Conners had some of that goo in his laboratory, so maybe they could bring out Carnage next time.

Batman Begins is still my favorite superhero movie of all time, but I really enjoyed this one and look forward to SM4.

Never have been a "Marvel Guy." Frankly, I'm just a "Batman Guy." But as a kid, all I ever read was DC and if it was Marvel, then Spider-Man. With that said, I am very pro-comic book movie. I don't care if it's Marvel, DC, Image, or Dark Horse, I hope they all do well.

There is no better plot line and character than Batman in the world of comics. ;)

I didn't say I didn't like him in other movies. I just grew tired of when he was in the Batman suit all he did to change character was lower his voice and try to look menacing. Overall I thought it was a very good movie.

I finally saw this earlier tonight at the local studio movie grill. I didn't think it was as good as the last movie (one of the best superhero movies ever), but it was pretty darn good. Definitely survived the dreaded third superhero movie curse (see Batman Forever, Superman 3, X-Men 3, etc.).

It was nice to see Stan Lee actually get a speaking part this time.

And any movie with Bruce Campbell in it is okay with me. :thumbup:

X3 is better than SM3 IMHO. X3 is just as good as X2 and better than X1 IMO as well.

SPOILERS INCLUDED






10. Goblin's pumpkin bombs do damage according to plot developments, in SM1 a bomb incinerates an office full of old guys, also in SM1 a bomb thrown directly at Spiderman only singes his mask off, in SM3 a bomb thrown directly at James Franco only burns half his face(which magically heals in a day), also in SM3 a pumpkin bomb destroys the sandman's huge right arm, and kills Venom. I call BS!
9. A meteor unnoticeably falls 2 feet away from where Peter Parker and that tramp are making out and that's how the venom symbiote comes to Earth.
8. Mary Jane is mad at Peter Parker throughout the whole movie because: A: She lost her job B: She doesn't answer her phone when he calls C: She doesn't comb her hair D: She's an all around horrible ugly person
7. Sandman's daughter had cancer or something (she needs oxygen, that's all we really know) so he accidentally shoots Uncle Ben 5 years ago, got arrested for some other reason that is never said, confesses to Uncle Ben's murder while in prison for some reason, escapes prison somehow, still needs money for his daughters 'operation" falls into a "molecule sand experiment" that's being held in the middle of the night by some of the most inept scientists in the world, becomes a sandman but instead of sneaking into cracks and walls or something like that he turns himself into a giant sand monster and tries to break into armored trucks, then he wants to kill Spider-man because Venom told him he wants to, then asks Peter Parker's forgiveness and floats away. So, let me get this straight...you have Sandman...who didn't mean to kill Uncle Ben but is completely willing to kill Spiderman because he's getting in the way?
6. Harry Osbourne hates Peter Parker until he gets amnesia (AMNESIA!!!!!) then he likes him again, then he makes omelettes with that ***** Mary Jane and remembers that he hates Peter Parker, but then his butler tells him that his dad killed himself (about 4 years to late) so he likes Peter Parker again. Oh yeah and he's two-face.
5. This movie's idea of "Dark Spiderman" is Peter Parker sporting a 'Panic at the Disco' haircut, wearing a black jacket, wearing very tight pants, hitting on girls, and dancing in a jazz club… cause he's evil now.
4. The following people cry: - Peter Parker (at least 3 times) - Mary Jane - Harry Osbourne - Eddie Brock - Aunt May - the guy from Wings
3. Peter Parker can take off the black spidey suit whenever he wants, unless he's in a church with Eddie Brock praying for his death beneath him, then he has to peel it off with the help of a bell.
2. Gwen Stacey serves no purpose other than to make Kirsten Dunst jealous (she doesn't even die, and that's like what Gwen Stacey is supposed to do.)
1. Venom isn't even in the movie. An imposter that looks like Venom is in it, but he doesn't refer to himself as we, he doesn't become a vigilante crime fighter, he doesn't talk in a cool snake-like voice, when he talks Topher Grace's face appears with hillbilly teeth, and he vaporizes when hit with a pumpkin bomb. But hey, he's just Eric Foreman in a costume Red will come straighten Parker out. BOO!

I completely disagree. I loved the first two X-Men films, but they packed WAYYYYY too much stuff into a two hour format. They should have cut back some or extended the running time an extra 30 minutes. They were killing off characters left and right - just moved way too fast without properly building the story.

That is the greatest thing I have ever read. That sums up pretty much everything I had a problem with i the movie, and it is hilarious.

Well done, sir.
