Great set-up for SpiderMan

Rating: 10/10 (4 July 2012)

Spider-Man is funny again! And he's just a kid from New York. And he made his web-slingers. Its a good story. Its fun. As a comic book reader, I'm used to characters getting updated. I mean, if you want the original Hulk he'd be gray with bowl cut. This is a movie that captures the spirit of the character for a modern audience. Could there be more Green Goblin, HobGoblin, Hobgoblin 2, Vermin, Kraven, and eventually an opening for the return of Mary Jane? Some great stories are waiting. Will SpiderMan get to meet Dr. Strange? I hope so!
This movie has a Spider-Man that could get in a fight with DareDevil, poke fun at Iron Man, and save the Multi-verse with Dr. Strange. Unfortunately, thanks to multiple studios owning the rights and being unlikely to negotiate, they will never benefit from the "soap opera" cross over that makes comic books so good at selling more comic books.
