I reckon you've got a point with Batman and Superman. And when one thinks about it, Spiderman movies sans unlimited web would make the battles in the movies more kan cheong. Damn, now that would make it more interesting I reckon. Of course, getting through the part of him building his mechanical web shooters would make for some filler time in the movie.

Ahhh... Hollywood mutiliating the originality of a concept. What's new. I don't read Spiderman comics when I was young so I dunno if he had unlimited spiderwebs, or if he had to go home and refill the web before going back to save the world or what.

Imho, unlimited web is due to the fact t o make it more interesting as the spiderman2 were about his delima. losing ability include to shoot the web will make it more prominent.

You need to watch it. But on pirated VCD. Malaysia is full of it. Errr, pirated DVD and share it out. Ask none of them to watch at cinema. Go against the legal system in malaysia. go against the director. Make sure they have low penetration of boxoffice compare to part 1 and 2.

Keen, I believe with Spiderman's mechanical webslinger would be even more keencheong. because imagine if he ran out of web?

Kennysia, Spiderman...the real Spiderman always have 2 spare "refills" with him in the comics. and yes, when he runs out of web, he doesn't just run though, he switch to his other abilities, like his brain. actually, in the comics, Peter Parker is actually also something like street smart and also scientific smart. That's how he build his mechanical webslinger.

daLe^, I have already sweared a boycott on all Spiderman sequel and all movies director by that idiotic director and also the movies by the casts of Spiderman. And I never go back on my words.

many purist share your views, too, kenny. I read a bit of the comix back in the 80's. What I didn't like wuz how they tampered with the costume. What's with the gold strips?!

But i'd love to see venom appear in the movie.

The costume is just appearances, it's the "spirit" of Spiderman that I am not happy about and also the "missing" mechanical webslinger........

Never really thought about that... good point though..

Hah.. oh well. Man's ego. Hahaha... i support u to the end. But i will go and watch at the cinema.

True, i would like to watch Spiderman vs Venom. Something will be missing without venom right?

If it is other people, I would say it is man's ego.

But I am doing this for a friend.

Hehehe still hate it don't you ? But this trend of comic-based movies will stop anyway , only thing that they need is time...LOTS of it . At least you rather choose not to watch it instead of comparing the comic and movie , which is the part I hate . Many other hardcores like LOTR and Hairy Potter keep comparing the books and the movie . For me , I rather watch it as an ordinary movie-goer than being a oh-I-read-this-book-before-so-I-expect-everything- is-the-same-as-the-book-inside asshole .

I didn't expect everything to be the same as in the comic, which is fine by me since they can even change everything in the storyline, I don't care.

but they went and changed the main point about Spiderman and that's why I am boycotting everything!
KLJS | Homepage | 04.15.05 - 11:13 am | #

Haih, change or no change, i dun care as long as the movie make me feel my money is worth the price. Hoho, sien loh~, episode 3 is the green goblin again. boh suey ler, might not watch it in cinema :P

as I have already mentioned in all three of my blog entries....this change is really unacceptable.

While I agree with some of your point, Hollywood doesn't listen to you. They listen to $$$. And I am looking forward to the new Batman movie.
Jon Choo | Homepage | 04.16.05 - 2:41 am | #

of course Hollywood won't listen to me. But I am still "ignorantly" boycotting it.

Yeah, I am also looking forward to the new Batman movie.

first time i got to know someone who's so serious with fictional characters, an eye opener for me =) you know u'll be rendered "weird" by "normal" ppl, yet u did not give up on this characteristics of urs, yao guak hei being different stm makes us feel upset as the ppl ard us dun understand us, nevertheless, oso hv to accept fact tat different ppl got different opinions, who knows, we might be the ones who hurt ppl coz we dun understand/accept wat they think.

it is not "yao guak hei", but because I grew up with them. As I have said they are childhood friends and not mere fictional characters.
