The New Spiderman movie will almost certainly be better than the last two terribad ones. I still can’t believe they had a bad guy who basically looked like he was wearing a bad rubber lizard suit from an old Godzilla movie.

Yeah, I wasn’t a big fan of that second trailer, but surely it can’t be worse than the “Amazing” predecessors.

Mind you, I’m not sure any Spider-Man movie is likely to best the first Raimi one, simply because that one has stuff like this. Sure, it’s goofy as hell, but it’s more creative than anything I’ve seen in a comic movie since, and actually feels like something that would be in a comic.

But I digress, I’m sure Homecoming will be fine. After that Ragnarok trailer, I’m suddenly far more interested in Thor, whose previous movies were incredibly dull. The Earth setting was holding them back, and I’m glad they’ve ditched Earth and Thor’s bland human friends.

I loved the first 2 Raimi movies, together with the first 2 X-Men movies I think they might be the best “superhero” movies ever made. The third one wasn’t as good as the previous 2, it had way too many subplots (thanks to Avi F**king Arad) and tonal problems, but it’s still enjoyable. I tried to watch The Amazing Spiderman 1, and I thought it’s a giant piece of dog excrements. I have seen maybe 10 minutes of the second one, I switched the channel during the first commercial break and never came back. And from the reviews I’ve seen I’ve done the correct decision.

I did really like the first Thor movie, but not as a superhero flick, but like a character-driven drama. It was all about interpersonal relationships between two brothers and their father, I really enjoyed the acting, directing, art direction etc. But I understand why some people say it’s boring. The second one however is one giant WTF - I tried to watch it twice but the only thing I remember from it was the “teleportation”. I am worried about the third one, it looks from the trailer it will suffer from the “too much shit going on at the same time” syndrome like Spiderman 3, or Avengers 2
