I went with some friends tonight, it was my favorite kind of night. I'm walking toward the building, one of the guys spots me, "Spider-Man tonight?" Answer, "Yessir." I love those plans that just happen. Anyway, I loved the movie. I was entertained to no end, Peter and Gwen, UGH they were too ing much. They were great. Loved it.

It made me think "Where the f*ck are the avengers?!"
Heheh, so dumb with the whole Sony / Marvel thing. I would LOVE to see Garfield in the next Avengers. I think a lot of others would too.

i have yet too see the movie so i'm avoiding spoilers, but it's nice to see positive respons here, makes me even more excited to see for myself.
i do want to comment that i too think this whole marvel/sony situation is bothering me and confusing me to no end...in my book, it are marvels characters so marvel should have the rights to make whatever they want on film, i hate the " og they can't use him" scenario going on now with diffrent heros unable to team up on film, wtf is that...
even the ol' "it's all about $$$" doesn't really hold up because if they would just not be bungholes to each other and co-operate on films, i see nothing but more money to be made..
i've always hated situations like this and foudn them confusing, call me simple minded if you will but the people/company that INVENTED the character should have a free pass on using him forever.

For those who have seen it > Was that Osborn talking to Connors in the credits scene < That's what I got out of it. Ditto. Thought it kicked the crap out of the other 3, but then I wasn't ever a particularly big fan of those films and thought Maguire and Dunst were terribly miscast. Everything just felt more "possible" or more "real" this time around imo. I know that sounds crazy in terms of talking about a kid who essentially scales buildings and is a little ninja, but the universe they created this time around just felt more realistic. And I'm pretty damn sure there was dialogue they took directly from Ultimate Spider-man, which I guess they did in Spidey 3 but this time it was done well. Enjoyed Garfield, think he killed the role, and Stone was way better than I ever thought possible. Uncle Ben and Aunt May were no surprise great, and I thought Leary did a particular great job in his role. No complaints, exactly what I want from my popcorn flick superhero movies right now.

Easily better than all three Raimi films combined, Spiderman is my favorite hero and I could not be more happy. I saw it last night and actually want to go see it RIGHT now just because I'm typing my thoughts of it. If you didn't like it, I don't know. You're just being picky.

I thought it was awesome. Andrew is a MUCH, MUCH better Peter/Spiderman than Toby ever was. The story was much better, the acting much better. It was just great and I am fully looking forward to the next installment.

I was kind of disappointed with it.
I thoght the character of Peter Parker/Spidey was better in this one. More wise cracks and a high schooler-ish attitude. I think Garfield was more believable than Tobey as Spider Man because he pulled the high school character off better. I also thought they pulled off the idea of the web shooters well.
However, the story seemed to be the same as the first Spider-Man movie, even down to the biological serums. Just replace Goblin with Lizard, soldier serum with reptile serum, and the military with Oscorp and you have the same basic plotline. The movie was OK for what it was, but I found myself bored at times like Id seen all this before. I think a second movie with a new take on Norman Osbourne/Goblin could be better though, especially if we see the Death of Gwen Stacy.

Saw it last night, it really suprised me. I remember back when the original movies came out, I was really excited for them. I didn't quite have that feeling going into this one.
That all changed when I came out. While 2 remains my favorite, this was just epic. I'm excited for the next one. Garfield played Parker so well and the Lizard really worked as the villain. Also, I love Emma Stone and thought she played the role of Gwen really, really well. Marc Webb is awesome, I hope he signs on for #2.

Saw this earlier tonight and thought it was awesome. Much better than all three of the Raimi films in my opinion.

I've been playing the video game and it's a great extension of the movie. I seriously cannot wait for the sequels, I have a feeling this series is gonna be epic.

In this one it seemed like Peter made much more of an effort to hide his identity as opposed to "gee, I'll trust all the nice folks on this train not to snap pictures and sell it to the Bugle for a million bucks" in Spider-Man 2. Actually his mask caught on fire when he was trying to stop the train, so he had to take it off. He went unconscious and when he came to, he was unmasked in front of the train full of people, but it was far from voluntary.

I absolutely loved this film. It was epic on a serious level. The story played out really well, and character development was superb. 1000 X better than the 2002 origin film, this one was just more 'spidey' Can't wait for the next installment, I'm hooked.
Plus Emma Stone was dead fit in this film.

Plus Emma Stone was dead fit in this film. Yes, far better than the atrocious Kirsten Dunst. And I was really skeptical about Andrew Garfield at first but he actually did a much better job than Tobey McGuire. I was originally against a reboot but now I'm really glad they did it, I have a feeling this is going to turn into a really epic series.

This movie was.... INCREDIBLE! I hope Sony and Marvel can work out an agreement where Spidey can make a cameo or a full blown appearance in The Avengers 2. I'd love it if finally all these universes matched up. So good!
This just leaves Fox trailing behind with there failing on ALL of the X-Men movies...

Also, I love Emma Stone and thought she played the role of Gwen really, really well. Marc Webb is awesome, I hope he signs on for #2. I felt the exact same way. I loved the first two movies so much and thought it was the wrong move to reboot the franchise this quickly, so I was against it from the beginning. But WOW was I pleasantly surprised. Andrew Garfield was fantastic, Emma Stone was absolutely smoking hot and played Gwen Stacy perfectly. The Lizard was done excellently, and I thought Denis Leary was kickass in the movie, too. He played the role of the stuck up ass hole cop so well, almost just like his role as Tommy Gavin in "Rescue Me." This movie had much more of a comic book feel to it than the first three, which I loved. It really took me back to my days as a kid growing up on the cartoons and comics. I already can't wait for the next one. I'm definitely going to see it again within the next week or so. Well worth it.

Now that was a great Spider-man movie! They really did him justice with his sarcasm and his movements. And the acting was miles better than the previous films.
