You must all tast the cinematic ambrosia that is Spider-Man 2. It was the perfect Ending to day of hard work. When I woke up, I was immediately drafted into dismantling my parents room. Which was followed by Jinkie getting upset because she doesn't understand computers, and Fnally, an afternoon of Graduation Project research, and beating my next ( Read more... )

I've got it. Will you be at Blondie's house tomorrow night? I could give it to you then. If not, I'm sure we can work something else out.

What you talkin 'bout?

Not only does spider-man ahve actual powers, his story also makes sense. There's no reason why Batman would have felt the need to become a super hero. Lots of people's parents are murdered. Even Billionaire's parents. How many of them become a super hero?

Spidey's story is more understandable. He could have stopped the guy who killed his uncle Ben (father figure), but he felt petty and didn't. So when he finds out that the guy killed his Uncle, he realizes that anytime he decides not stop a crook that he could, he's putting someone's Uncle Ben at risk.

And also, It's real annoying that Batman's such a whore. Spidey's got a steady gal, and his romantic life has never been an easy one. Where as Batman's always got a new girl, that he conveniatly has time to woo between battles with all the supervillains that feel like being evil.

Oh, and at least Spidey didn't get fired from his own movie because "Ahnold" didn't like him.

Thus Ranted the Ev

Batman isn't really a whore, he's just the James Bond of the superhero world. Spidey and the Bat are really of two different genres. Batman was concieved and evolved back during Pax Supermanna and therefore is of the "perfect type". Spidey was the dawning of the "flawed type" superhero (i.e. Punisher, Hellboy, Spawn). So really, comparing them is very apples and super-oranges.

One should also take into account that the batman of something like The Dark Knight Returns is a different beast from the more classic one. As such it's a bit unfair to make comparisons. Anyway, I sort of like it that he doesn't have powers; as one friend of mine remarked, "at first you ask yourself: why is some weakling like batman allowed to even associate with folks like superman and the green lantern? Then, you look at what batman actually does, and the question reverses itself: why are they even allowed to associate with him?" Because batsy uses what we in the business like to refer to as 'his noggin.' He actually manages to achieve through intelligence and fanatical devotion what others can only seem to achieve through superhuman prowess. Anyway, when was the last time your parents were murdered in front of you? It's true that in the real world, becoming a superhero in response to such an event is an unlikely occurence, but certainly no more so than being bitten by a radioactive spider, or descending in a space-pod from the ( ... )
