Raimi And Maguire Go For Spider-Man 4?

Spiderman 3 was worse than Superman Returns, and that movie was horrible. Now, if any movie really gets panned by critics, it's X-Men 3. Yes, I know, I know, Ratner made it, I know, but honestly, it was fun, it was action-packed, and it had pivitol plot points that really added to the franchise rather than taking away from it. Overall, people bash that one more than Spiderman 3, and it really doesn't deserve all that negative criticism. It's actually a pretty okay film.

i really think ppl overblow how bad spider-man 3 was. it wasn't THAT bad. to be honest it's not my favorite of the three films but it definitely doesn't render the kind of comments i've read about it. ppl mainly focus on the nightclub sequence as out of sync or whatever. that's one scene. i don't think you can judge a film or someone's ability to make a film on one scene.

i thnk the blame for "screwing up" the third film lies heavily on sony and marvel. marvel wanted raimi to add venom when he already had a script done with the sandman as the villain (there was also no gwen stacy in that script). we all have bosses and we have all been in situations when you had an idea on how to do something and it's totally doable but the powers that be have other ideas they want incorporated. so down with all the raimi bashing.

There is nothing revisionist about hating Spiderman 3, it was a horrible movie. I went to see it in the theatre because I was psyched that they finally put one of the baddest characters in the Marvel Universe, Venom, in the movie. Topher Grace was horrible, and so was the rest of the cast, including Maguire. The whole emo thing literally had everyone in the theatre dieing laughing, and not for the right reasons. Terrible movie.

Just give Raimi the reins and let him do what he wants. He had control over the first two, they were great, and the studio butted in on the 3rd and it was panned by fans and critics. Think the studio will learn the lesson here?

revisionist bullshit game? Serious? Spiderman 3 was probably close to the worst superhero movie ever made. Wanna make tobey anymore gayer than an emo idiot? And don;t get me wrong, I love raimi! But c'mon? Guy screwed up 3. Venom storyline? Horrible! FX? HOrrible! They should have spent the extra money and got ILM to do the FX. Transformers looked amazing...so did Iron Man. And everyone quit bitching about Michael Bay! Raimi needs to take a brean from Spidey and head out with Bruce Campbell to get that damn Ash sequel done dammit!

Eh... I saw Spider-Man 3 in the theater... and I hated it. This isn't revisionist on my part, it's the truth. I saw the movie once, couldn't stand it, and will never see it again. That being said, let's hope that if everyone is back for 4 and 5, then those two movies will live up to the quality of the first two and erase the horrid memories of SM3.
