    Shrek 2:

    Though I think I may like Shrek better as an integrated story, Shrek 2 was funnier (mainly because it was filled with pop culture references).

      You should read Ultimate Spiderman.

        I dunno a variation of Kraven's Last Hunt for 4 should be interesting.

          He's a character who originated in Alan Moore's 'Swamp Thing' back in the eighties.

          He's a Liverpudlian ex-punk wideboy with sardonic charm and an interest in sorcery, who 'enjoys' scrapes with the law, and looks like Sting in 'The Police' and wears a trenchcoat.

          He's very British (as were most of the stories) so relocating to L.A. and having him played by Keanu 'Dude' Reeves is about as sensible as getting Shaquille O'Neal to play Gandhi or Hercule Poirot.

          Poor Alan Moore.

          In other good news, India has its own version of Spiderman- in a dhoti.

            You'd think he'd be used to it by now after League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

              Yep. Even though Gwen is now a "Bad girl."

                Fricken amazing movie. Holy freaken ****.

                What's with all the Spidey haters though? Jeeze, it has no basis in reality. This movie works on so many levels.

                I invited a bunch of friends to go out for dinner and a movie on Saturday for my birthday and most of them said they had no interest in seeing Spider-Man 2. What is with all this anti-spider-man? The movie is darn good.

                ***spoilers***






                There is even some deep symbolism in it too. Anyone catch the Christ links on the train? When he is stopping the train its like the crucifixtion, and then the crowd is passing him down, all spread out like Jesus or something. He even had a pierced side. For a moment there he was "dead" and then he rose again. He sacrificed for the good of all of us.

                It all comes together, see.

                Who was that skinny chick from across the hall? She really had no point in being there. I sure hope that's not supposed to be Gwen or anything. Plus the ending! Yay!!!

                I'm a dork, hehe. Spider-man rules!!

                As for Harry and GG2, eh... I mean it has to happen, but so soon? We just had green goblin, there are so many good villians out there, I'd really hate for them to waste another movie on him. Maybe Harry will drop out of sight for SM3, and then emerge in SM4. That'd be ok. But right away? Ugh.

                Btw, Kraven

                Also, while not an epic enemy like Green Goblin or Dr. Octopus, I've always like Sandman. I don't even know how they could do him appropriately, but I'd love to see him.

                But wow, such a good movie. All you haters need to see it. You might change your mind.

                  Please, Ozzy, get real. All my comments were directed at the first movie, and were hardly comments of "hate". SM 1 was a bad film regardless of the quality of SM 2, which, as you probably noticed, is a different film altogether.

                    I thought SM1 was a very fine movie. Excellent acting. Especially by Kristin Dunst.

                    Especially all the origin stuff, it was handled quite well. You really got a feeling for who Parker was, his humble background and you felt for him as an outcast and a nerd. Building from that you can really appreciate his powers and the importance of that.

                    He, like most others in the movie, were three dimentional characters who you could really understand. Say that about another comic book movie.

                    Batman?

                    I haven't yet seen the Superman movies, but I am highly doubtful they are anywhere near as good as these two Spider-man flicks. Of course it'd be downright ignorant of me to condemn a movie I haven't even seen yet.......

                            Damn, I would have thought that'd be the worst pick up line ever. If it works though, maybe I'll give it a shot.

                              I thought it would have been interesting to have him toss MJ off the bridge and have Gwen there to console him.

                                As the last Arc was closing, I was hoping that Gwen would turn out to be carnage.


                                But nooooo.....it looks like we're running with the "Genetic-suit w/Parker DNA" schtick.
