Spider-Man has been a favourite of mine for many years. Since I read the Amazing Spider-Man comics from the 60's, their capturing the real life of a teenager along with all the action-- of course, the wisecracks helped, too. Knowing these things when the first Spider-Man came out back in 2002, I nearly crapped my pants. Now, it’s been eight years with two more movies that I enjoyed, and a reboot on the way. I will admit: I was disappointed at first, but things seem to be lightening up. Here’s what they should do for the Spidey reboot to get an A+.
1. Wisecracks
Spider-Man has had one signature trademark aside from the webs. He cracks jokes during fights. Although there was a little bit of it in “Spider-Man 2,” I missed the wisecracking Peter Parker from the comics. We did get the vulnerable Peter, and that’s probably what Sam was going for. Wwe need those jokes for this reboot. Please.
2.No Origin
We've seen his origin too many times already. Going all the way back to the beginning would be redundant and stupid. They should follow “The Incredible Hulk” and illustrate it in flashbacks. Either way we don’t want to start all over again.
3.No Green Goblin
While I wouldn’t mind having Norman Osborn in the movie, don’t make him the villain. He was already the villain in the first movie. Their picking him again would be redundant. Have a villain like the Lizard or Mysterio.
4. Web Shooters
Web shooters would work if it added to his problems: running out of fluid in mid-fight. Now that would be interesting. Also maybe he drops his web shooter out of his pocket and is almost seen. It would just work for some good comedy and make him more of a realistic character.
And that’s how I feel about the reboot. I hope you enjoyed them.
