it's my opinion, and i'm entitled to it. maybe a money shot but at the same time, spiderman hasn't done the best as a cinematic property. Of course it's yours He used to be the best, money-wise, when Raimi was at the helm, even the mediocre Spider-man 3. Kids still love him regardless of how A-meh-zing Spiderman 1 and 2 overall were (though i did dig the suit - best on-screen suit so far - and the cornball of 2, in spite of it's terrible reviews). This one scene felt like a good shot in the arm to hype him up again. Spiderman is Marvel's flagship, he should play with the rest of the Marvel boys (and girls). Though all that, as gitty as I was about seeing Spiderman among them, hilariously referred to as "Underroos", I was still more gitty at watching Batman fight like Batman in the newest of the Batman V Superman trailer. I guess I'm riding more on BvS because I want Affleck to succeed, even though Civil War still looks like it will be the better movie. i thought andrew garfield was a better spiderman than maguire. the movies weren't as good around him though. i have no problem with spidey being a part of the mcu, i just don't think it needed to be revealed the way it was. we'll see how much it brings in on the boxoffice though. i want affleck to succeed as batman too. he's brought a lot of awesome in the cape and cowl, so far.

Oh I thought Andrew and Emma were great, and yeah better than Maguire and...well I guess Dunst but the way she was written might as well been Gwen and not MJ. Just a shame the movies weren't up to snuff.

Mmmhmmm that was sexy. Even if the movie winds up sucking, Affleck is totally the Batman we needed and didn't know it. Cant' wait for his solo film that he's hinting he'll direct as his next project.

Too bad people hated when he was announced as Batman and won't be changing their minds, no matter how good he is in the role.

I mainly say that because I have a friend who won't quit bitching about it if it's ever brought up. "Matt Damon is a way better actor"... GTFO.

Ledger dying had nothing to do with people changing their minds, it was the first full trailer and the comic-con footage that turned them around. Then he died

I wouldn't say he's a WAY better actor, but Affleck has definitely been playing catch-up while Damon has been mostly phoning it in (side from The Martian, he was fucking great in that).

At least I know visually, Snyder's pretty on the money on things. His movies are only as good as his scripts, and BvS has the guy that penned Argo providing the script polish. So I'm hopeful, lol.
