Apperantly due to Andrew Garfield's age they're thinking of making Peter a college student instead of high school.

Why is that something to be excited about?

The college setting is dumb. Peter was in college for most of Raimi's movies.

If they wanted something different, college is a stupid ****ing direction to go in. You know, since its not ****ing different.

I don't know. I just never fully liked the idea of a kid Spider-Man fighting all these super villains like way ahead of his time. I was never a huge fan of Ultimate Spider-Man, and that was one of the reasons I liked the 90s cartoon incarnation of Spider-Man better then any other T.V incarnation and I was a little happy that Raimi didn't go in the young direction.

For the reboot, I'm hoping he's older, has more quip-age, more Peter and Doc Connors interaction, Gwen Stacy in the beginning, and lot's more Spidey stuff that wasn't in the Raimi films.

...One of the biggest perks of Spider-Man was that he was a young kid taking on these seemingly insurmountable odds!

Jesus christ, you really have no bearing on what defines Peter Parker, or Spider-Man do you?

"Gwen in the beginning"? So you want them to gloss over that too?

Stan Lee's reason for creating Spider-Man was that he wanted a teen superhero in a time when teens weren't in the forefront.

You talk like you want them to make movies based on **** that came way later, and doesn't differentiate Spider-Man from any other asshole superhero.

Also, quip-age isn't a ****ing word.

I grew up on Spiderman, and the movies were decent, even though now that the hype was over I realized how much of it didn't really follow the comics. Sure the basics of the plot but it isn't close to the good stuff.

You guys probabtly know WAY more then I do. (My brother mostly pointed out all these things you guys mentioned earlier.

)

I think a reboot is a LITTLE too soon, I mean, I'd love to see them in the future, because I love Spiderman! (Especially the Spectacular Spiderman Series.) But I don't think the trilogy died down yet.

But The Spiderman Trilogy couldn't have been as Bad as the Hulk.

So glad they did the Incredible Hulk to redeem it.

I don't care about movies being like the comics. That's why they're two different things. They got to mix em up.

Hell yeah. That first Hulk movie sucked too much, just like Daredevil.

Most people did.

I liked the style (the paneling made it look like you were watching a comic book) and not the story, but to be fair it's been a while since I've watched Ang Lee's Hulk.
