What are your thoughts on the new film. Ie. Casting? Filming techniques and anything in general.
These are my thoughts. Feel free to disagree and start some discussion.
Pros:
- Young Spider-Man, it feels good watching him go through the typical American highschool stuff.
- No boring repeat of Uncle Ben's death
- Some neat ideas to push forward the idea of Peter Parker being a young innocent teen wanting to be "cool" eg. The opening sequence of the film where he is making a sort of home video. It gives a down to earth feeling about this movie. We see Peter Parker is giddy with the idea of this "internship".
- Aunt May is a milf.
Cons:
- As usual, Marvel keeps it light hearted. When compared to Raimi's much darker Spider-Man films, I don't feel as if there are enough consequences. It just seems like anything Peter does wrong, Tony Stark just comes and saves the day. Which I understand as he is saving the people on the ferry
- Pacing seemed a little slow at some points, lots of down-time but I think it was for the sake of building spidey's character. .
