Spider-Man Reboot

[Herschel Yamamoto]

Hey, Harvey Dent = Two-Face is like 80 years old, and it still surprised me. Ignorance of comic books FTW.

[Narmio]

I know its been like 40 years but you might want to spoiler what happens to Gwen Stacy.

e.: Also Gay. Darker and grittier only works for Batman.

Titanic sinks at the end.
Rosebud was his sled.
Vader was Luke's father.
It was Earth all along.
Bruce Willis was a ghost.
Spiderman kills Gwen Stacy.

Depressed at the lack of Tobey Maguire hate in this thread.

[Durzel]

Going with gay too.

Actually kinda interesting pattern here:
Xman - 1st good, 2nd good, 3rd bad -> reboot!
Spider-Man - 1st good, 2nd good, 3rd bad -> reboot!

IMO the first Spider-Man totally fitted to the comics, not having high expectations to this one.

Fuck! That does not bode well for Dark Knight Rises

Unless reboots are exempt from this rule.

Anyway, this can't be any worse than the Colin Farrell Total Recall reboot is going to be.

I'm supposed to know that's Gwen from the 5-second shot of her talking to Peter? In the same science lab where he gets bitten, and in the first film he is talking to MJ and then he gets bitten? K.

I think he meant because one is blonde and the other a redhead, so it's pretty easy to tell 'em apart.

Also, trailer looks awful.

This. Not knowing who Gwen Stacy is is excusable, because she's been dead for decades (and is one of the very few comic book characters who stay dead), but knowing who she is and then going "Hey, why have they made MJ blonde in this movie?" is pretty derp.

Also, movie does not excite me very much. They'd better start highlighting how their take on the origin story differs from the last version or I don't think I'm going to bother going, just on principle.

Survey says there were a lot of clones that thought they were her though.

I'm going to go play Mirrors Edge now and so should you.

who is gwen stacy

Short version: The blonde in the trailer in the OP, and Spiderman's first girl. The writers decided that Spidey and Gwen were getting too serious and they didn't want to do a marriage storyline as that would make Peter too happy and he always has to be emo with a crappy life, so they killed her off instead. It turned into one of the defining moments in comic book history, serving as one of the major bookends on the long period of over-the-top silliness that is referred to as the "Silver Age" of comics.

Well I knew who she was since she was in the previous fucking movies. But yes, I had forgotten she existed due to her being terrible and useless.

[Aea]

Actor is at least hot.
