Match Cut Directors Consensus - Sam Raimi

[MacGuffin]

I didn't realize he produced Armored. Did anyone see that?

Did you see the preview? You'd have to pay me. And even then it would need to be a fair sum. Honestly, man...

I'm surprised at the number of people who feel that the third Spider-Man movie is the best one.

Yeh me too. RoadtoPerdition gave it a 9? Really?

[Dukefrukem]

BTW Spinal, not sure if you noticed by I stole your sig formatting.

[Sycophant]

I think SM3's highs outweigh the highs of any others in the series, even though it has some pretty low lows, too.

I'm not surprised... but not because it's the best... but because this is Match-cut.

[RoadtoPerdition]

Yeh me too. RoadtoPerdition gave it a 9? Really?

:shrug: It's the one I liked the best. I'm always surprised how much people like the other ones, which are good, but not that impressive to me.

Also, I must note that dancing emo Parker is the funniest anything of anything, ever.

That is a great scene, I will give you that.

[Dukefrukem]

Also, I must note that dancing emo Parker is the funniest anything of anything, ever.

As funny as it is OUT OF CONTEXT, the scene does a great job in portraying how vastly different Parker is after the symbiote takes control of him; it also makes you feel bad for Mary Jane. I just wish Parker didn't realize what he was doing immediately after that scene.

I have rarely been angry at a film but I was at Spider-Man 3 after I left theater. Since then Marc Webb's two films have me realized I was too hard on it. But it was still the film that has me starting to check out more general (without spoilers) word-of-mouth and some scores before seeing a film though.

Rightfully so. It's the perfect example of studio interference. Sony would still have creative control over Spider-man if they just let him take the franchise in the direction he wanted.

[TGM]

Love Spider-Man 3.

[Skitch]

Love Spider-Man 3.

I'd go something like:

Spider-Man - 8
Spider-Man 2 - 8.5
Spider-Man 3 - 8

I still don't get the hate. I think people are overlooking of the flaws of the first two because we were so devoid of really good comic book films, by the time they get to three, everyones like yeah fuck off. They did way too much on again/off again with MJ and Peter throughout the trilogy. I still think ASM is the best Spider-Man flick so far, too bad ASM2 was easily the worst of them all.

[TGM]

Ranking the Spidey flicks:

Spider-Man 3
The Amazing Spider-Man
Spider-Man
Spider-Man 2
The Amazing Spider-Man 2

[Stay Puft]

These Spidermans scores are all over the place. I mean, a two for the Spiderman 2, Puft? What the hell?

I stand by that.

[Grouchy]

Spiderman 2 is, hands down, the best superhero film ever made. That's why Spiderman 3 stands out so poorly. It's not a terrible film, but it has a lot to live up to.

And also, it has a very flawed script with too many villains to care for.

I'm sure that's not all of it and I deliberately left out animated films without a theatrical release since there are so many of them.

[Dukefrukem]

I want to dive into that list so much.

1. I hadn't considered the Matrix trilogy to be a superhero film before- if I do, I'd rank Revolutions higher than all of the Superman films.
2. Suicide Squad worse than Green Lantern, Green Hornet, Iron Man 2, Daredevil, Hancock, Watnted, and Elektra?....
3. The Dark Knight under Powerpuff Girls and the Mask?

[transmogrifier]

Logan is the best superhero film I have seen at 73/100. Not my favorite genre.
