The Amazing Spider-Man

Just rewatched this after 5 years and holy hell had I forgotten how good it was! I think it's a perfect mix of seriousness and a little humor with absolutely epic action scenes. The actors are great, too. Even though the sequel was underwhelming, I'm still sad that the third movie never got made. Instead we got some cringy garbage I won't touch with a ten foot pole.

I like it because the main character is an average loser
Unlike the new movie. Bunch of cunt school kids

Fuck your opinion I'm going to put some dirt in your eye

BUMP

new spider-man is better he has a more comic related personality and kid look

I never watched the second movie with Garfield until the other day because I was told it was shit so I didn't bother. But after watching that kiddie shit in theaters right now I decided to give the amazing spiderman series a look to see if it was any better. The first movie was meh but second had great action and drama, despite the villains being kind of dumb. I was upset because it wasn't shit and we could still have had a decent Spiderman had they not rebooted it so fast. Fucking pissed man

Okay now I know you're trolling. TASM's Peter was too cool for school. He skateboards to Imagine Dragons, Gwen Stacy is already hot for him, and he's super attractive.

He's not Peter Parker.

The Amazing Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 are the very definition of made by committee garbage. There's no sense of style or vision whatsoever. TASM is a completely unnecessary remake of the original Spider-Man movie and TASM2 is a terrible Spider-Man cinematic universe trailer.

I feel the same way, the suit could have been better though.

>He skateboards
Badly.

>to Imagine Dragons
Wrong.

>Gwen Stacy is already hot for him
That's usually how it goes. Plus Gwen was a nerd too.

>he's super attractive.
Peter Parker is attractive, man. There's a reason bitches love the spider.

You have terrible taste in movies. Please go tell more people these ideas about how good Andrew Garfield was in Spiderman and watch as no one talks about movies with you.

I enjoyed this one more than the latest one in pretty much every way except the villain. They did a really crappy job with the Dr. Connors.

The skateboard scene was not meant for you to laugh at his bad skills. That was clearly there to make him look cool.

The skateboard scene was to illustrate how Parker went from an average boarder to better than world-class due to his superhuman agility, speed, and balance.

What. Peter is a chad who picks on Flash in this movie. Not to mention the scene where he steals some guys id to get into the Oscorpe tower then smirks as he sees him screaming getting dragged out by security.

This scene is just ridiculous and it makes Peter seem like the bully, picking on guys just trying to practice.

Spiderman homecoming was fine and the diversity made sense since it took place in Queens, which is literally one of the most diverse places in the world.

About that scene you linked, you do realize that he had acquired the super powers by that point?

He's picking on Flash.

one of the better movies surrounding the worst spidey/Peter. Garfield came off like a cunt.

Yes, and he's clearly bullying flash for no reason. The idiot girl is painting in the gym next to people playing basketball for no other reason than to give us some stupid justification for le prideful scene where Peter with powers gets the better of the bully. But this just makes Peter seem like a dick who's abusing his powers just to humiliate flash.

Yeah, because he's drunk with power and using it irresponsibly. It's almost like there's some sort of arc taking place or something.

Absorbing data 140 characters at a time really kills your ability to appreciate and consider context, I know, but do please try to keep up.

>get your ass kicked
>acquire super powers
>get back to him
>hmm i guess with great power comes great responsibility maybe that was wrong what i did

Always baffles me that people never understand Peter Parker. He's a quiet kid who gets bullied his whole life, then gets super powers and becomes a huge dick. Only until Uncle Ben gets cooned does he change his ways.

>kid look
Why does anyone even care about this?
Spider man hasn't been a kid in the comics since like the 1970's

I mean, is Peter Parker supposed to be a saint? I would much rather have a cunty super hero than some perfect helper who never does anything wrong.

Of course a bullied loser would misuse their powers at first if they suddenly could have revenge at their bulliers. I like it how the story is somewhat realistic.

>Not to mention the scene where he steals some guys id to get into the Oscorpe tower then smirks as he sees him screaming getting dragged out by security.
This one scene shows why Raimi Spiderman > Webb Spiderman. With one action he singlehandedly ruined some guys life and then he laughed about it. Tobey Spiderman would never do that, because he was legitimately a good person.

>kid look
Why are fanboys so insistent on Parker looking like a little boy? It's fucking weird. He's called spider-man. Fuck off with your obsession with wanting Parker to be in high school you hebephiles

Just rewatched that after a long time too! I had forgotten how fucking awful it was so thanks for reminding me. Its astonishing how idiots like you exist, this film is a product in every sense of the word and you're eating the slop up.
> absolutely epic action scenes
Think about what the fuck you write, jesus. you sound retarded.

>IM GONNA MAKE NEW YORK LIZZARDS WITH A GIANT BLUE LASER IN THE SKY BECAUSE...eh

>uncle ben's death had nothing to do with me but power and responsibility!

>oh yea fuck that plotline now lol

>peter is modern! He skateboards just like the kids!

>woah want to know the super interesting story of what happened to Peter's parents? Yeah neither do I.

>Sam Raimi made New York a personality in his city so lets also do a scene where they help out Spider-Man
>completely soulless empty crane scene where he could of just used the buildings around him

>DISGUSTING new costume

The only good thing is the action scenes taken out of context of the rest of the movie. The entire thing is just boring. I dont give a shit about Peter's parents, I dont give a shit about Oscorp, I dont give a shit about Lizard people or a giant green monster, the fact that the movie failed to make me care is its own fault. With stakes so high it should be memorable but its all just shit.

Because thats what the movie and all popular Spider-Man media (cartoons, games, and Ultimate comics) are about. Stop pretending this isn't the case, elitist prick. If they want him to be 15, he should look and act it. Gwen and Peter in this movie are supposed to be around that age yet they look and act like complete adults. Gwen having some kind of high ranking position in Oscorp and being a super genius.

>how good it was

Things that never happened.

Niggas here Peter is fucking with people using his powers. And he's not just "bullying flash" for no reason. Flash was a dick and Peter takes him down a notch.
And there is tons of instances of Spiderman being a dick to bad guys. He loves fucking with them and throwing one-liners at them.
If there is ANYTHING wrong with this scene is that he is kinda "blowing his cover" as the meek little nerd kid, by just super hero dunking on the turbo jock, and event that likely half the school will talk about. "Peter -the Nerd- Parker just outplayed flash and then just fucking soared trough the air like he was fucking M. Jordan"

>Defending this

youtu.be/R0bGtake1Bc?t=50s

Call me a kid, I don't care, but at times I found him genuinely scary. I kind of liked him.

Well you're a kid, and he looks fucking stupid. They were too afraid to go with something actually menacing because it wasn't humanizing enough so now we get a lizard without a snout. If you're intimidated by that, you're a kid and there's no other explanation.

Aye, but Spidey was more saint like in that movie. after one thing went shitty he swore to himself to always do right and he became captain fucking america. It was a nice movie, but LOTS of comic spiders where a bit more cocky. Yeah they always caught the bad guys, but they also where kind of an asshole while doing so.
I see it this way:
Spider man has the better Peter Parker. a fucking loser weakling that gets picked on

Amazing Spider man has the better Spider Man:
youtube.com/watch?v=wtClC8fslWI
"my weakness! It's small knifes!"

The reason I loved that scene and TAS in general is because that's exactly how a young man would be like if he suddenly acquired super powers. The original trilogy's Peter is just unrealistic.

He was retarded looking. I know the flat nose is how he looked in his first comic appearance, but there's a reason they changed it to a more lizard-esque design and stuck with it. .

He was only a saint compared to the Amazing Spiderman who acts the same in and out the suit. If you just want to argue over technicalities, without a scene where he isn't just being cocky he comes off as an asshole because we dont get those nice Spiderman moments. I mean, he helps a kid but thats it. It wasn't memorable, heartwarming, or anything, I felt nothing. Just like I felt absolutely nothing throughout the whole movie.

I loved it because that's how I remember him from the comics: being a fucking smart arse and taunting his enemies while he jumps around them.

That's why I said: Spider man has the better peter parker, TAS has the better spider man.
But I was also saying that the particular basketball scene was not really that out of character. Yeah it was kinda stupid to do, but he is kinda the patron saint of the nerds, so he "avenged" one with his new-found powers. But you are also right in that there are not enough "peter's a sweet boy" scenes.

>2012 was 5 years ago
Damn, I remember chilling watching TV and seeing that a new Spider-Man movie was coming out. That was just the cherry on top of a good summer. Where did the time go?

This scene was hard to watch. Spider-Man was the villain in this situation. Tobey's Spider-Man would have NEVER acted like this. He had integrity. Garfield's Spider-Man is an arrogant dick.

friendly reminder spidey is actually retarded

The man was a criminal, whom Spider-man caught and left for the police. He didn't even hurt him badly (by Hollywood-standards, of course), he just had some fun with him. He's exactly how you'd expect some teenager to be after acquiring super powers.

But that's comic book spider man.

I don't give a shit about how the comic books do it. The comic books had Peter using a web shooter. Raimi's movie fixed that.

>I forgotten how good it was!
>!
Fuck off to whatever shithole you are from

>fixed
thanks for confirming that your opinion can be safely discarded.

Wtf? Why?

Oh yeah , I remember why I hated this shit.

2kool4skool

Fuck this Parker.

>literally 5 seconds into the film someone is chastised for calling native Americans "Indians"
>literally 10 seconds in a black school news reporter is macking on blonde white girl
>the new black Mary Jane's WE speech about how the Washington monument was built by slaves
>both of Peter Parker's love interests are black
>villain's wife is black
>Peter's Mexican school rival has a white blonde girlfriend
>the oh so edgy Sup Forums Fuck Marry Kill scene with high schoolers fantasizing about old men, also participated in by a gay male
>Aunt May’s “Gay is OK!” speech
Only this sjw shit can make that average shit at best somehow look decent. Hollywood is in a sad state.

Exactly. All of this bullshit makes you appreciate movies that do not have Jews brainwashing the viewers. I think The Amazing Spider-Man was actually pretty neutral and I can definitely appreciate that.

Funny thing, the moment I saw the trailer and found out that the Peter's gf is black and friend brown, I knew it would be full of SJW propaganda.

>the oh so edgy Sup Forums Fuck Marry Kill scene with high schoolers fantasizing about old men, also participated in by a gay male
Girls didn't participate in that in your high-school? Right now there's probably more than a dozen of teenage girls shlicking it to porn fanfiction of Steve and Bucky tag-teaming Tony.

>the new black Mary Jane's WE speech about how the Washington monument was built by slave
Jesus Christ. It's a throwaway one-line joke used partly to point fun at what sticks in the mud SJW high-school girls are.

>villain's wife is black
So his black daughter being Peter's love interest can be a twist no one saw coming.

>Aunt May’s “Gay is OK!” speech
Again, there is no 'speech', only a small joke.

Did a black man cuck you once or something?
