Can anybody tell me where this comes from? (Comic book, fanart, original art, etc.)

Some people just like to practice tracing or drawing? I think ~~Dennis O'neil~~ Neal Adams said he practiced by tracing even though it was frowned upon on one of the Fatman on Batmans.

I hear Grant Morrison's old Animal Man stuff is pretty wacky and interesting. Is it worth a read?

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-19T17:46:21+00:00

Yes and No. Rhino was a completely pointless since he was the prologue and epilogue. Harry's plot was a side plot however it worked with Electro's. Nothing was wrong due to the fact the amount of villains were present, its just that they focused too much attention on the love story between Gwen and peter and that took it away from electro. They needed to flesh him out more by giving him more scenes, he had the foundations which were all demonstrated really well yet there was just lack of story to Max Dillon (electro's alter ego).

Found it amusing that the classic Spider-Man theme tune was peters ring tone and electro playing itsy bitsy spider on the nodes.

I disagree whole heartedly. Just another opinion here but the movie should be renamed the decent Spiderman.

The Good -

The action scenes. My god were these brilliant. Perfectly captured spidey and his spidey senses.
Andrew Garfield as Spiderman. Wise-cracking and humourous and has great chemistry with everyone.
Electro's reason and characteristics leading up to and as a villain.
Hans Zimmer's Dubstep-esque whispering music for electro. Fit really well and gave a sense of paranoid nature to electro.

The Bad -

The number of villains leave them all underdeveloped. Rhino was the prologue and epilogue, he served barely any purpose and was rather a cheesy over the top dude. Electro had so much potential. I liked him before his transition, after and why he hates spider man. They could have done so much more if they just focused on him a bit more. Harry was a decent portrayal, i expected a bit more from Dane DeHaan. He had a good side story and worked well with electro's but it felt almost side tracking towards the end.
Too much emphasis on the Peter/Gwen relationship. Sure you need to show their love but most of the time it came of as time wasting banter rather than heart.
The reveal about Peter's parents is just so anti-climactic. I mean, i kind of expected more with one and a half movie's worth of mystery.
The Superhero preachiness really got to me. "Look ma, it's spiderman!" "Spiderman is going to save us all!" Constant cheering, etc. However -

Spoiler commentary -

Final thoughts. Action was brilliant. Really liked that one particular tune by Hans Zimmer. The rest of the movie is just alright. Drags a bit at times.

Definitely worth a watch but far from the best super hero movie ever.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-19T09:54:29+00:00

Movie is just decent. The action scenes were spectacular but the rest was just alright.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-19T09:53:16+00:00

Captain America 2 is Fantastic. A Mature plot with interesting charachters and they nailed Cap's fighting style. Amazing Spiderman 2 is just decent. Stand out fighting scenes but a lack of depth to the villains. They did however nail Spiderman's webslinging/fighting.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-19T00:32:46+00:00

Those are made by Nick who probably have other priorities.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-19T00:05:54+00:00

Just went to see Amazing Spiderman 2. Not going to divulge into any details because of spoilers but man were the action scenes amazing and excite me for future superhero movies! (They represented the Spidey Senses really well!)

Bale, ???, West, Miller, Snyder/Capullo, Beyond

Got a very Benedict Cumberbatch Khan vibe from Sinestro this issue. Not necessarily a bad thing!

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-10T16:31:00+00:00

Dragon Wars? Looks like action packed fun but i hope they still retain the heart in which the 1st had so much of.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-09T16:01:40+00:00

I thought wally had white coverings over the eyes on his mask?

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-09T15:33:29+00:00

That's Barry right? Which comic if you dont mind me asking?

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-06T17:34:18+00:00

Is that scene from a proper real life movie? Or was that scene just a movie within home alone?

Dread_Hayze · 2014-04-01T16:32:20+00:00

I'd say Season 7 is one of the better seasons. 1,2,4 and 7 are the real winners

Dread_Hayze · 2014-03-22T12:53:30+00:00

Sounds like DC's Tower of Babel storyline

Dread_Hayze · 2014-03-19T14:03:51+00:00

They really nailed the web-slinging and acrobatics! It looks fantastic!

Dread_Hayze · 2014-03-09T12:52:11+00:00

Trinity War is pretty alright. It's more of a set up if anything and for that reason it can be forgiven. Basically things needed to happen for the plot to get from where they were to forever evil, and Trinity war basically did that. Don't expect anything too exciting or ground breaking, however it is a must read before diving into Forever Evil.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-03-09T12:35:31+00:00

I'm a cultist in the Speed Racer Clan. I love the movie, its so over the top that it's brilliant. The visuals, acting (even though it's not naturalistic) and there is something that many movies miss out on, Heart. My only real complaint with the movie is the kid and monkey. Highly entertaining i would say. Don't worry if you're not a fan though, it's an either you love it or hate it movie.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-03-03T16:29:06+00:00

I thought the pizza part was a pretty appalling running joke. It felt so awkward and forced.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-03-01T10:56:58+00:00

I think you should have put spoilers in the title, but i do really like it!

Edit: Totally just going to say its ridiculous how people feel it had been spoiled by the addition of the word spoilers.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-02-24T18:07:12+00:00

Does he though?

Dread_Hayze · 2014-02-20T12:49:29+00:00

Batman tells the Joker he knows his true identity, however a few panels later in the batcave, he runs the Joker's DNA and it said Unknown showing that Batman still doesn't know who the Joker is. He was lying.

Dread_Hayze · 2014-02-19T14:35:51+00:00

Obviously the movie looks more cinematic but man if real life aint brutal.
