Ultimately Off-Topic

They banned you on CBR for promoting this site? If so Wolverine will get a ban too shortly.

LOL right? Its absolute madness.  The shout box is a fantastic addition too!  Its like a mini off-topic thread


Haha thats good, Ill probably just check back there for any stragglers every once in a while!  And thanks!  I fell off the UU community for far too long so its the perfect time to stay up to date.  

I wish i had a lengthy one for you!  Turns out different territories have different films available.  Apparently theres a program I can download that can fool netflix into thinking I'm in the UK and get what movies are there.  But ill definitely make a point to make a big post when i see it haha

Haha, am I the only one of us that didn't get banned or something?

@ @spider-Pig - To be fair, most opinions are bias. It's actually rare when one isn't.

• I want TASM3 for 2016 and then a Sinister Six movie afterwards.



I think it will be good. Nolan's a good Director. His last two movies, Inception and TDKR were incredibly flawed, but were also rather ambitious projects. I think Nolan will do well this time with a concept like Interstellar that's much easier to accomplish. This seems to be like one of those late 90's Hollywood epics like The Rock or Armageddon, which is an easier target audience to please than Batman, and Inception was a bit of a mess, plots wise. Hopefully Interstellar doesn't come with all the 90's cliché's though, like having a hundred shots of people staring at TV's and monitors in anticipation.

Noone said you we're.


I never said you did, i was talking in general sense. I guess i assumed too much on what you read online. Me and Darman have been young and foolish and spent too much time on the cancer that is comicbookmovie.com

Studios plan long ahead, shouldn't this be a good thing? Kevin Feige has many Marvel movie plans, but he hasn't signed the actors for anything yet.

I wouldn say Marc Webb has a good plan, as his story is a trilogy and each movie stands on it's own. Not to mention Andrew Garfield is (not saying much, but still) the definite on screen Spider-Man. Dude nailed it.


Tried? He is the founder (Founder!) of Marvel Studios. Thru his talents he saved Marvel from bankruptcy and reinstalled the superhero movie genre, since noone had cared about cape films after Batman and Robin. Avi Arad didn't try to get things done, he got the things done!

That's because he hasn't tried to copy Feige, until now maybe?


Me and Darman have been young and foolish and spent too much time on the cancer that is comicbookmovie.com, i was talking in general sense, not about you.

Never say never. I have access to my universities computers so I can make another account if I need to. They each have a different ip address. So really they can never ban me unless I run out of computers.

I read this in a kind of evil genius voice.

Alright, I'd break up the reply again to be neat, but I can't at the moment.  And man, to address what you said "in a general sense," it sure read a lot less general considering you picked apart 1/4 of my post very specifically in a condescending manner.

And true, Avi IS the founder but he's not there now.  He's the reason its there and I wouldn't take it away from him, I'm speaking in current terms.  He's not the reason for current Marvel Studios success, which is what Im citing.  I read the letter he released to the press yesterday too, so its not like Im saying he's useless.  Times have changed and he's playing catch up, its just an observation.  Thats literally all my initial, more general point was.  I want this franchise to succeed because I i like it.

And I agree, Andrew Garfield IS the definitive spiderman. AGAIN, I've said this.  He's absolutely my favorite and I want him in the part as long as he's able.  

And yes its good to plan ahead, but the difference is Marvel Studios are very open about their plans AND they have Disney money to support it.  Sony has sold their computer division and many film properties in order to stay afloat financially, so no I don't see it in the same light at all.  Does that mean I  harbor any ill will?  No.

Hasn't it already?



Sony sold their PC division because people are more into tablets and smartphones. PCs are going to stay for work, gamers and office work. I don't recall what film properties Sony sold off, but what's wrong with them not finding something profitable?

All Spider-Man movies have made less money on opening weekend after Spider-Man 1, it's called franchise fatique. People are overreacting on the internet and not waiting patiently regarding the Box Office numbers, but Spider-Man 2 will have competition with X-Men at the end of May, but that's far away, not like how ASM had to go up againts The Dark Knight Rises.

Oh crap, i meant "all Spider-man movies have made less money in the United States since SPider-Man 1" i wasn't talking world wide money at all.

Yeah domestically they've been making less and less, Worldwide is dropping too.  But still finishing in the $750million range?  Thats still.. Amazing!  

This is very true!  The film felt the need to retread too much from the previous film.  But see, because the reveal was lacking it made the scene that much more jarring for me.  The revelation about what Richard Parker was doing was cool but it wasn't so earth shattering as to warrant the action scene which was used to build up that reveal.  The scene and the reveal are very much connected narratively so its hard for me to watch it on its own.

I thought a lot of what spiderman did in the film was really damn cool, especially the time square stuff showing how he uses his spider sense.  Marc Webb isn't the best action director by any means, but i did like most of what was in there enough  

And see, this is why i like talking about the film though, because I've talked to so many people about what they liked and what they didn't, and they're all so vastly different.  And that goes for our conversation! haha

Oh and dude, I got home a bit ago and started watching your playthrough.  Good stuff so far!
