Point taken. I too think the 3rd film should end after the 3rd battle, although a lot like the 2nd did, with the battle, and a scene or two afterwards to wrap things up. I'd have no problem (and now that I think about it, I think I'd like it better) if, rather than Pete having the symbiote for...
I just saw this on Superherohype.com. Raimi comments on a 4th film and the future of the franchise... http://www.superherohype.com/news/sp...ws.php?id=2280
In the case that they released the superbit on the same day as the SE, yes. However, I think the problem that many people have is that the superbit shouldn't be necessary to accomplish the audio and video quality. Other studios can issue SEs that have all the extras and beat the video and...
Here's my idea for how the franchise should progress. Bear with me, my Spidey obsession knows no bounds... As others have said, I believe they MUST open the next film with Spidey taking on a lower level villain, or at the very least make some mention of it happening in the past. In the second...
As others have said, thank you David for the comparisons. I bought the superbit, and will be getting the SE for Christmas (hopefully), but it's still nice to see. For me, my praise of the SM2 SB is based mostly on how much better (to my eyes, at least) it looks than the releases of the first...
I bought it today and watched all but the last 10 minutes or so (had to go to work). As others have mentioned, the video is very nice. It's not reference quality, but is leaps and bounds above the first movie's SE release, and, IMO, bests the Spider-Man I Superbit as well. That said, it looks...
I know someone else mentioned buying from Best Buy online to get the $17.99 price for the Superbit, but that's not necessary, at least not at the store I picked it up at. I woke up this morning planning on heading out to find the SB. I know Wal-Mart never has them, but one just opened right...
Halo 2 (the LE at least) comes with a 2 month free trial. Since you're using a free trial I'm guessing you don't have the headset, right? I don't have Live yet and haven't tried the trial since I thought it would be pointless without the headset. How's it working out for you?
I admittedly don't know how much a patch can fix, but the issues seem to be relatively minor. I think the majority of the complaints would stop if Bungie... - Difinitively stated whether the game is 16:9 enhanced - Added the ability to position the HUD (like Splinter Cell) -...
I also noticed that the game is quite dark. I tried playing in the morning before work with the sun creeping through the blinds and some of the indoor levels are almost unplayable unless I turn the brightness up.
Wait till you get to the end of the level you mentioned in your spoiler (if...
I'm seeing differing reports everywhere. Some say the game is not coming through in true 16:9 even when set properly and that it's just the stretched 4:3 (circles appearing as ovals, etc). My tv has 4 modes, Full, Just, Zoom, and 4:3. When the set is receiving a progressive signal it...
On my tv the picture looks like you took one of Scott's pics above and chopped right along the edge of the leftmost grenade indicator in the HUD. So, basically the radar and grenade listing are touching the left edge of the screen, but not cut off. Same goes for the right, the ammo indicator is...
I picked up the LE at Best Buy today (there were plenty left BTW). I have a Panny WS HDTV and the first thing I noticed when I started playing was that the HUD appeared to be very close to the edge. Nothing is cut off, but I thought it was closer to the edge than it should be. I chalked it up to...
Has anyone here ever seen a movie called Carnival of Souls? I picked this up in a 2 pack at Walmart. I had just bought Romero's Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead and while looking though the $5.50 bin I saw Night of the Living Dead in a 2 pack with this movie. I haven't watched it yet and was...
I finally purchased DVDProfiler yesterday after months of putting it off (using the free version). After doing so I decided to play around with some of the reports and came up with a couple cool (well, at least I think they're cool) things to do with them. Obviously creating a coffee-table...
I came to this thread a little late so I didn't get to participate, but I just wanted to say how great it was to read everyone's opinions on all these movies. Reading this thread caused me to pick up a bunch of horror flicks (a genre that was severely lacking in my collection) and I fully intend...
What I find to be most odd about this is that I counted at least two other scenes in the film where they show a woman's bare breasts, once with Monica (I believe) in the mall, once at the end in the footage during the credits with the girl in Steve's boat.
I hope that when the players for each of these formats appear in stores that the manufacturers and studios make an effort to get the word out to sales staff at the various stores about what the players are capable of and what is necessary to use the equipment. I think for the public...
I bought this yesterday and watched it without the commentary and then again with the pro poker player commentary. The image looks quite good and is a big step up from the previous release for the simple fact that it's anamorphic. Admittedly, however, my eyes often don't catch a lot of the...
Everything points to only one hour of the show being re-aired before next week. My Tivo as well as every other source I've checked has suggested this. It is weird since every other episode is usually shown non-stop. Mike Matasow was tough to take this main event. I think a lot of it had to do...
I can't wait until the numbers dwindle a little and (hopefully) they give each comic more than 2 minutes. Some of these comics do much better when they have a little time, and all that have performed so far have felt rushed. For instance, Gary's Spider-Man 2 bit was about 5 minutes long when...
I don't know who they'll replace Bonnie with, but I hope it's Jim Norton. As for the comics from season 1, I'm really looking forward to Rich Vos and Dave Mordal. IMO, they completely blow both Dat and Ralphie away, and it's a shame they didn't make it farther. As a side note I saw Alonzo...
I'm definitely glad they're going with a Superbit release right off the bat, but a Superbit deluxe would've been much nicer. Oh well, I'll buy myself the superbit, buy the two-disc set for my parents, and take the second disk, as I don't think they've ever watched a single DVD extra in...
I'm looking forward to LCS3, but I really wish they'd change things up a bit as far as how the head-to-heads are handled. I say change it so each and every head-to-head is voted on by phone and internet voting, with the competitions each week airing live. This will immediately eliminate...
I too have pre-season football taking the place of BB5 on Saturday, Pittsburgh at Detroit. However, if my Tivo is correct, there will not be a 2:00am re-airing, or any time for that matter. I guess I'll have to count on this thread to let me know who goes up.
You're more or less correct about Black Cat, Greg. She started out as a thief, stealing for the thrill rather than for the money. She became infatuated with Spidey, even going as far as building a shrine to him at her apartment. Early on she had no powers, just a very good gymnast/athlete...
For as much as I normally dislike BC in the comics, I actually think she'd fit quite well into how the movies are coming about. I'd love to see a scene where Spidey and BC are caught by some news cameras or by another Bugle photographer (Brock, hint, hint) on a rooftop together, maybe with BC...
The great thing about this franchise is they can take it in many different directions. Of course the scary thing about this franchise is that they can take it in many different directions. A lot of things that look good on paper, or even played as great stories in the comics, may not work as...
