Okay. Sorry for the misunderstanding. With this changeover, my e-mails are
jumbled, pieces here and there. Had to go to the group area to read it
properly. And I agree with you entirely. I'd love to see more real-life stuff
like that. Back when I read Captain America back in the early 90s Steve Rogers,
after being fired by the Government as Cap, had to get a real job. Using his
talent as an artist, he became a comic-book artist. His gig?

Because that's what I'm saying. the everyday person doesn't just get
to deal with one problem at a time. There are different things
coming at us all from all sides. Life is complex. Marvel
characters, at least to me, always seemed to get that. Marvel
characters get divorced, look for work, get beat up, lots of things
that a lot of us can relate to. I think it's time for these movies
to get a little more into it and stop showing these rock'em
sock'em fights.

Peter's constant money woes, his struggles with classes and families,
are what made Spidey. He always had the Everyman factor.

This is Spider man. In the books, Peter's POVERTY is a villian. His
CLASS schedule. It's time for a movie that doesn't treat the audience
like a bunch of slow bus children. The character is a broke college
student who turns broke photographer who turns, eventually,
underpaid public school teacher. Spider-Man is a hero with complex
issues and a textured life. The complexity of the character universe
is what I LIKE about Marvel characters. As far as I'm concerned,
bring on Mysterio! Who ELSE can we dig up?

I agree. Too much of anything--heroes or villains--can result in an
unwieldy
film that focuses too little time on any one element. Batman Returns--
the
second of the modern flicks--was okay, but it had three villians, and
suffered from a splintered storytelling as a result. But as you said,
with
a good, tight script maybe...

Didn't a certain Batman film have 3 villains? ANd that film sucked.
More isn't necessarily better. I hope that the script for SM3 is
good and that the quantity of villains isn't a coverup for a low
quality script.
