Why is there so much hate on the Amazing Spider-Man movie?

Also the sun glasses on the eyes and their size are bad.
And no web-shooters. Web-shooters are lame.

...because its too soon for a reboot, they're retelling the origin story, which we don't need, and the trailer wasn't convincing enough.

And maybe a reboot is what we actually need to be pulled into another spider film. All of ramies films were good, but focused to much on the lover between parker and mj. I don't think this will be as much of a love story, and that's what the spidey films need. In my opinion anyway.

Lol wise words @teabag hahaha

Because every prequel and premature reboot hurts the cbm genre when it comes to the general public... Prequels suck right off the bat and they are never as sucessful as the original movies. Star wars being the exception, but 20+ years had passed since the original movies. If the prequel story is so important, it should have been told in the first place and you already know the future of the character(s). So any danger they are in is is not exciting because you know they're not gonna die... and no series should be rebooted unless too much time has passed to continue the original series. Superman should have been rebooted, tmnt has to be rebooted, batman barely got away with it. But hulk was too soon andwe just had a spiderman movie a few years ago.

I don't know if it's going to be bad, but I don't know if it's going to be good. It's done nothing to sway me one way or the other. I need to see a trailer, afterall. I don't like how their rebooting the franchise. They either should of left Spider-Man alone or made a sequel to 3. Spider-Man 3 was really not as bad as people make it out to be. It wasn't on the level of Hulk, and it certainly wasn't as ad as Batman & Robin. Anyways, as much as i hate the reboot, there is nothing I can do to stop it. In the mean time I'm completely neutral on the movie.

i think people are hatein too much, garfield is an outstanding actor and imo he looks perfect for the role, and as for the "raimi movies are great" people...sorry to burst ur bubble but the raimi movies were mediocre, ur just all sayin that cause it was the first big screen take on the character and u maybe, like me, grew up with it, but cmon it was cheesey, unfaithful to comics and peter revealed his identity and cried every movie....plus 3 was an abortion, that 70s venom -.- my only criticism is the mask, the eyes are too small,i gather that this is the ultimate universe and ultimate spidey was known for the large white eyes

@Yossarian Thats the second dumbest comment of the day. So, because of one shot in the teaser you assume the entire movie is first person?! What makes you think its any more than 'a shot here or there'? Its probably the opening web swinging sequence if anything.

Arrrgh! "Obstacles". Where's the freakin' Edit button?!

Here are the reasons for hate:
1. Fans who don't want a reboot - I was one of those people who thinks it is stupid to have Spider Man rebooted, but after seeing some of the things I like it. Though that doesn't mean there are still people that love Sam Raimi's SpiderMan and doesn't want to see the movie.
2. The Tone - Thanks to tone of Twilight, everybody forgot that Spider-Man's original story did in fact deal with teen drama and angst (that is one of the very reasons why Spider-Man stories were good); so pretty much everybody will criticize it for being too Twilightish (even though I see Spider-Man as the Anti Twilight; more action and better story telling).
3. Butthurt DC fans - Notice this from TheGODDAMNSUPERGUY, but he seems to be comparing Green Lantern to this movie (even though the possible problems I see in this movie are different from GL). Due to some misguided sense of pride, these fans woould decide to make this film look like crap to make future DC movies look better (still, don't understand why they would deemed GL crap when it is better than all the other crap DC movies they usually see).
4. Web Shooters and Costume- This deserves a face palm for stupidity. The costume is an interesting redesign of the original and the web shooters was a better concept than organic webs.
5. Director - So Marc Webb only does music videos, big whoop. He manage to bring out an interesting perspective with that first person angle for Spider-Man's movement. On a side note, I always wanted to make a super hero video game done entirely in first person perspective.

Spidey used web shooters for over 50 years in the comics. i thought people around here liked when they stuck to the comics...

@corndogburglar I thought the same thing which is why I posted this. The web shooters are an amazing idea.

Majority of the people I know and the people on this website are actually looking forward to this movie.

@Corndog - I've always thought that the shooters were dumb even in the comic... the organic webbing was one thing that I really like about the Raimi movies. It makes a lot more sense than a kid getting bit by a radioactive spider and then inventing web shooters to help him be a superhero. That always really bothered me. Its a little too deliberate...

people recognize spidy from the comics and in the comics you see spiderman not just hands and feet , this ain't a duke nukem game it is a movie .
