You haven't seen the straight to DVD theme rack at Walmart, I take it. We're flooded with dozens of 'em. "God save our farm", "5 people you'll meet in heaven", "Little red wagon", dozens of animated and cheap versions of Noah and Jesus' story.Mcoffey said:

Because the comics make oh so much sense. Spiderman vs Thanos in the Thanos copter(it happened)
The list goes on.
No more than any other Superhero, Spiderman has had more than one pretty stupid storyline in his long career.
But like I said before I'm Reeeeelllyy interested in what he has to say about AS2
Bob lives in the US right? That might be why this wasn't ASM 2 ripping week, as it doesn't come out until next week here, so I'm wondering if the US critics have to wait until around the time the movie comes out here first before they can review it, or maybe even see it.
OT: So not only is it ham-handed, but it's boring at that? Laaaammmmeeeee. I really should go see Noah sometime.

what is with the sudden influx of christian movies? Besides Noah, they're just the religious fluff and not the epic films from decades ago. Come on Hollywood! enough with the fluff and go back to the epics.
Also, how nice of the family to pimp out their kid like this to make money (；一_一

If the story is true (the kids story about heaven) St. Peter needs to be fired for not doing his job. I mean a kid getting it to heaven only to be pulled back. Shouldn't St. Peter have noted the kid as an unexpected arrival and not let him through the pearly gates.
A movie about what happened to St. Peter after this would have been infinitely more interesting.

I honestly found it boring. The ONLY thing that came close to being interesting was Harrys character arc. You understood why he got to a point so desperate that becoming the green gobling was inevitable. But boring ending, boring movie, spiderman looks like his costume is too big for him (don't even know how that is possible), and RHINO on the poster is the definition of a TEASE!twosage said:
He had Kull (a closer adaption to Howard's Conan-verse then Schwarzenegger's), Andromeda t.v series (which fell to pieces when he assumed creative control and made everything about him) and Meet The Spartans (standard gross out humour/pop culture filled "comedy").Andrew Siribohdi said:
OT; I think the key to making a good religious movie is to not make it a movie about religion. Keep those aspects in the background and in support of the movie. The 10 Commandments (Charlton Heston version, assuming they did a remake, which I do, because I don't care enough to Google) is a good example.
That's exactly the problem. The entire point of a Superhero movie is to condense everything awesome in a character's decades long history, leaving behind the stupid, and coming out with a 2 hour thrill ride. The comics are stupid to be sure, but the stupid is exactly what you DON'T expect to see in the final movie.Kumagawa Misogi said:Aiddon said:

I want to say two things about this review
1. "Braveheart, director of Braveheart Goes to Vietnam, and Bravehorse." is probably the funniest thing you have said in a while. While I do enjoy your reviews and your show, I'm usually just quietly nodding or disagreeing based on the subject or whatever, but I rarely laugh out this. This did the trick.
2. Awesome use of the Saint Young Men pic. I haven't read that series in a long time. Thanks, Bob
