I saw THE AMAAAAAAZING SPIDER MAAAAN. It was a'ight. It had the most not-annoying-to-me Stan Lee cameo of all Marvel flicks so far, so that was a plus. I'm not sure what to think of the movie over all. I like it more than Tobey Macguire Spider man, but I'm not sure if it's a better film. There were problems, just little things. Garfield's performance was great, but the scenes where he cried were just bizarre. He made strange sounds and his face just didn't contort right. I understand that the face is a strange thing and pretty much everyone looks pretty stupid when they're crying, but he was far more believably upset in The Social Network. Maybe it was supposed to be campy.
It wasn't as much balls to the wall action as The Avengers, and the gay incest romance between Channing Tatum and Matthew Mcconaughey in Magic Mike was a significantly more believable love story than Gwen Stacey getting a loveboner for Peter because he beats the shit out of people, or at least I assume it was, but it was still pretty damn entertaining overall. I think you should see it. It was different than the Spider Men that previously filled my life, but still a fun watch. WARNING/DANGER: You will be expecting the showdown fight between Godzilla and Spidermang about a dozen times before it actually happens.
