      I guess it is all about the context of which you are viewing the animation. Films like Spidey and (I assume you were referencing) the Matrix I believe have their atmosphere enhanced by this type of animation. Just as how well Gollumn was translated into CG completely enhanced LOTR.

      That said, the Spidey trailer had some of the best examples of this type of CG I have seen. That isn't to say it always works, though, as last summer's Hulk easily proved. Th

Golum was cgi intended to represent a being who does not exist in this world and who's physical charecteristics can't be replicated by an actor in a suit. It was consistent and believable. Whereas the matrix cgi was intended to represent Keano, they did a horrible job of making it look good and I think the movie was worse off for it.

      The CGI in Spiderman was just fine. Certainly better-looking than any stuntman-based attempts at superhero film-making that has come before.

      I think the problem isn't with the animation, but with the goal. Spider-Man moves impossibley fast and ignores some basic physics. I think it is impossible to have a "person" spring 20 feet straight up into the air and not have it look cartooney. If we are going to enjoy the movie, we just have to suspend disbelief and accept that if there were a Spider-Man, then that is how he would move.

        Well then you should try going to a movie without knowing the plot. It's a totally different experience. I HATE trailers, and try never to watch them... I try to turn my attention to something else during the trailers before a movie.

        I like to go watch a movie just on advice from friends whose tastes I trust, and go watch it without reading a single thing about it and only having been told that they enjoyed it. Try it.

        For instance I saw Bruce Almighty and when the guy met God and whatever, I was totally amazed cause I didn't see it coming at all... I also watched The Butterfly Effect and enjoyed it a lot more than my friends cause the plot totally surprised me, I had no idea what it was about.

        From my point of view, trailers suck, and so do reviews. They just serve to ruin the movie.

      Annoyed? How about totally pissed-off. I first noticed the give-away trailer format all the way back with "Throw Momma from the Train". There were 3 different commercials they were showing on TV and if you'd seen them all, then you saw almost every physical gag they did in the movie. Very disappointing, particularly as ticket prices keep going up the net effect is we are paying for less and less as the trailers reveal more and more.

      The trailer for Hellboy, which I've not seen yet, seems to give a good mix of enticement and still not be a complete give-away. The Hildalgo trailer, however, looks like it shows way too many of the dramatic parts.

I have, however, given up on reading reviews. They're all a bunch of sellouts.

      When trailers are engineered to produce 'false scenes'? What I mean is that two different scenes/shots are spliced together in the trailer because they coincidentally run on from eachother or work well together. For example: In the trailer for Men In Black (the first film):

      Linda Fiorentino: Let me guess, this is a government conspiracy and you guys are just trying to cover it up, right? (can't remember the exact line)

      Tell me about it. I was all looking forward to seeing The Passion but then <***SPOILER ALERT***> some jackass came up to me on the street and told me about how the main character dies at the end to save humanity. So I told him "hey jackass, thanks for ruining the movie for me. I'm reporting you to the MPAA for pirating the plot and redistributing it to me. I think you owe Mel Gibson an apology and $10." It's just as well that I didn't see it - it sounds like they just ripped off the ending from The Matrix: Revolutions.

    • Is anyone else annoyed by the amount of story that is given away in trailers now?

      Annoyed, yes, but "now" isn't right. I've been watching a lot of old movies on DVD, and on those DVDs that include the original trailers, I've noticed that the "giving the whole plot away" problem isn't anything new. I've seen it in trailers from the 1950s and earlier.

      Which, if nothing else, makes me believe that it's a practice that will probably never change no matter how annoying it is to some people.

    I really hope they listened to Mr. Lee on this one. He's sorta the guy behind spidey, and he had some sound advice on how the first movie coulda been a bit better. His argument as to the necessity of Peter Parker "making" his web solution and shooter mechanism made for some good sense, and for him to point out that William Defoe was a superb actor and, thus, should have had his face shown while in "Goblin" mode is something the director should have figured out first.

    With makeup and CGI like it is, Defoe could have easily had his own face used without a hitch, and being the actor he is it would have been far better than the stupid mask.

    Of course, people need to keep in mind that these movies are only "based" on the actual comics and Lee, et al., are not fully consulted....

Put a mask on him, and hey! It's a whole other person, and he can be none the wiser, which leads into the Hobgoblin bit, as he seeks revenge against Spidey. Granted, the mask looked cheesy as all get out, but even in the comics he wore a mask.

    • My grandma threw out all my father's Superman comics, going back to issue one, when enlisted in the marines in WWII. She figured he didn't need kiddy comic books anymore when he was off fighting in the pacific...

      He used to tell me, "Son, if my Ma hadn't thrown out my Superone 1, I would be a rich man today. But since she did I can't afford a gardener, so GET OUT THERE AND MOW THE LAWN!"

    Did anybody else catch the joke here?
    With the trailer shown during The Apprentice, they had to include this:

    JJ Jameson, Peter Parker's boss at the paper, says
    "YOU'RE FIRED!!"

    There was *one* thing I was reaally missing in the first film: the music. Before entering the cinema, I thought I'll hear some kind of remixed spiderman music (like in MI2), but I was very disappointed. Music is really part of my memories about the cartoon (yeah, I know, you couldn't hear it in the comics. Whatever).
  • Perhaps my childhood memories of reading spider-man are inaccurate, but I thought that Otto Octavious was Eastern European. Anyone else remember that? If it's true, why would the movie producers change that? Oh, and what's with his trenchcoat? Where's that lame full body green suit that made me pitty him?

      They don't want you to pity him, they want you to fear him. And what's more fearsome that a crazy guy with a George Michael haircut walking around in a trenchcoat?
