Summer of Movies: Spiderman

We haven’t reached the end of January yet, but Sony are already assaulting us with first images of the Spiderman reboot – a film that doesn’t open until July 2012.

Full disclosure upfront: I’m not a big Spiderman fan and haven’t actually seen any of the previous films. Still, I am left wondering is there that much demand to see Spiderman on the big screen that Hollywood needs to remake a film from three years ago?

Yes there is a new director and a new cast, but it just feels dirty. And boring. I don't care how much pilates Andrew Garfield does or what colour Emma Stone's hair is. Save it for next year when we can actually see the film.

We all know the motivation here is money and the studio is building up for a big opening weekend. Are there really no original idea’s left? And do people still care?

Yeah, they probably do. People suck.

Sarah: Haha! You're right - this is the stupidest idea and people do, in general, suck. I heart you Peter! x
