Hey guys, this one is nearly finished. This is the first edit ive done of a movie that i honestly don’t like very much. There was some good stuff in Spider-man, but it is all covered with a thick layer of cheese that is hard to get around. There’s corny dialogue, horrible acting/characterization, and some rather iffy special-effects by today’s or any standards. This edit tries to fix some of the things i thought were absolutely terrible about this first spider-man film.

  • Most of the opening credits are gone. The film is retitled “The Amazing Spider-Man”
  • The badly written and unnecessary scene between Harry and Norman in the car is Kaput.
  • A lot of the real groaner lines are gone.
  • The first part of the film is all about Peter’s transformation into spider-man. The transformation of the green goblin is left till after Peter graduates.
  • A lot of unnecessary and long effect shots are removed.
  • The subplot of Green Goblin trying to turn Spider-man to his side is removed, as it was completely useless and just added to the runtime.
  • The film now runs about an 1hr 45min. and is an enjoyable adaptation of a legendary comic book.

If this goes over well, i may work on an edit of the sequel, which is far superior but could still do with a little tune up. I had fun making this one and am pleased with the end result.

This shoudl be up on demonoid by friday.
