Re: The Amazing Spider-Man
Everyone knows the origin soooo aspects were similar. However, the new movie had a different spin how it affected Peter / Spiderman which is different than the way shown in the Rami films.
It is no different than re-telling Batman origin from Burton to Nolan the same events happen with a different spin affecting the character differently. The reviewer is a goof ball......

Re: The Amazing Spider-Man
At this point in time, especially for the tent poles of the comic industry, origins should be told during opening credits, especially for the more basic origins like Spider-Man, Hulk, Batman, Superman, etc. It's really a waste of time and money to keep continually rehashing the same ____ over and over when that time and money could be better utilized giving us better stories.

Re: The Amazing Spider-Man
The opening credits could introduce the character (ie Spiderman) up to the point Uncle Ben dies. The story then unfolds from that point.
The back story up to said event isn't necessary as each event shapes the character differently throughout the story. Each film maker has the option to present their versions of how the event shaped the character.
I would agree with your statement.

The Amazing Spider-man 9/10. Not perfect but a damn fine start to the epic story arc.
I had the pleasure of seeing this almost a month prior to its official release and I recall loving it but I felt the score was lacking. After reading some of the critics reviews I began to wonder if I rated this too highly and whether I was seeing this movie through rose tinted glasses. So I went again today for its first day of official release and settled in to a sold out screening which was impressive as the cinema was showing both 2D (my choice) and 3D at once.
I was correct in my initial assessment. I love this movie. It transported me back to when I was seven and my introduction to The Amazing Spider-man. When Raimi brought Spider-man to the big screen I was so relieved and excited to eventually see my hero once and for all. Superman fans had had their superhero transported to the big screen almost 20 years previous, Batman 13 years previous. Would I ever get to see him? CGI was only really taking off in the early noughties. It was a revelation to see him. But although I loved Raimi’s movie it did not touch me in the same way this movie has. Spider-man 2 was superior to Raimi’s first outing and I rank it in my top three comic book adaptations. But again it simply did not have the emotional impact Webb’s rendition of the character has.
He has explored the human relationship and condition beyond any previous comic-book movie has dared to explore. There are some seriously tender moments in the movie, yet in many ways those moments have been let down by a lacklustre score.
Some people will rightly question the rebooting of a franchise so soon after Spider-man 3. Yet if Raimi had dealt with the tragic story arc of Gwen Stacy we would not have had this reboot. The Gwen Stacy arc is critical in the formation of the character of Peter Parker and Spider-man. This movie has laid the foundation for that arc. I will bet there won’t be a dry eye in the house when this epic story is concluded.
Thank you Marc Webb for reminding me why I love Spider-man.

I dunno. I think the more accurate question is, would we have gotten this without Raimi's?

The Incredible Hulk / Iron Man 2 / Hellboy / X- Men First Class
Captain America / Thor / X2 / Spiderman 2

Oh and for my money, Raimi who?
Bye Bye Tobey.
The few similar things were done better ten fold.
