I felt like Raimi made good use of extending the olive branch to comic book and main stream fans. I just hope that these filmmakers aren\’t confusing a quality film with source material continuity. Although, as a comic book fan, I do appreciate that kind of effort, certain plot lines that have taken decades to cover can\’t be given full attention to in even three or four hour-and-a-half features.

The biggest thing they have to pay attention to is staying true to the character. Look at The Dark Knight: There were some plot deviations from the comic, but Nolan never strayed from portraying each character with respect to what the comics have established in their long history, which is why its become the comic-book movie to compare to all other comic-book movies.

I do sympathize that they\’re probably trying to go in a direction that\’s going to make them stand out from the previous movies, but I think this might be lost on some mainstream audiences.

I don\’t see why Superbad and Easy-A have made her a promising talent.
aybe I\’m just giving too much credit to whatever role she\’ll play in a Spider-man movie.
