New Batman film is the superhero film of the year. The Village People Avengers looks crap, Spiderman looks not bad but Bats is best.

I'm very confident that "The Avengers" will be good. It's directed by Joss Whedon after all. However, I do agree that the final Batman film will be the #1 superhero film this year by far.

Avengers will mop the floor with batman and superman, dc will never bring another live action movie.Seriously they wont, if supermen flops they will focus attention to cgi movies instead, all hopes lies in superman (LOL), this is the last batman, any new one will be another universe other then nolan.

raimi must be gritting his teeth that someone else is directing the lizard since he wanted to play with him since spider-man 2.i only miss the lizard using trenchcoat, after all it seems they are mirroring the first arc where the lizard wants to turn the world into reptilians, and i really hope they dont use that arc where people turned into lizard just by having their "reptile brain part" to activate, i always hated that story as it made no sense, having people behave instinctivaly by activating the reptile brain, that fine by me, turning into lizard people would make the whole marvel universe be sleeping mutants.

Those Batman movies always put me to sleep. Too friggin pompous. Ledger was great though.

Maybe its me, and I might need this explained because I just dont know.

There was the Spiderman Movies with Toby McGuire. These were released within the last 10 years right?
Now there is "The Amazing Spiderman" with the same hero, just seems he got his powers differently. Same essential pretense in which a guy with spiderlike abilities fighting crime. I don't see the difference or the need to make another one.

Kind of like the difference between the Hulk, then the next year releasing the Incredible Hulk. Same movie, different actors.

To each their own I guess because I found the Joel Shumacher movies to be incredibly cheesy and the Tim Burton movies barely passable.

The two Hulk films were not just one year apart. You can't make a film in that time anymore, not like those.



The Jedi Master

The "need" is the studio believing that it can still make a lot of money with the Spiderman franchise. That's all that ultimately matters in Hollywood.

Short story, diference in creativity between director and studio made studio dump director and crew and restart a new,problably since they obligatin with them lied on spider-man movie,this new one is AMAZING spider-man,so no liability.
the original movie was looooosely based on the mainstream spider-man story, this one this more focused on the ultimate universe spider-man while loosely geting elements from other medias as well.

and for the need, money, always money. Also on hulk, the first one was from universal studio, the newest was from marvel comics own studio,so they rebooted him to fit into their new plan for integrated cinematic universe.
