PS: Let me first admit that I am a fan of little spiders! The following content has spoilers, be careful!
Sony is too anxious, really too anxious, maybe in the recent 20th century Fox, Marvel and even Warner DC have too much action, Sony can't sit still, and is anxious to expand its view of the universe, but Marvel, too, Disney also has a lot of things to make a fuss about, and there is basically only such a superhero on Little Spider. Of course, the popularity is not lost to the two giants over there.
The quality of the movie is indeed quite good. The big investment, and the three good lineups of good screenwriters, good music, and good actors are worthy of Sony's ambitions. The plot has a degree of relaxation, each main character is also fuller, the villains are quite interesting and have their own characteristics, but the transition is a little bit abrupt. Especially the Little Green Goblin, you should know that the old version of "Spider-Man" used two episodes to pave the way, while the new version is a little bit stiff. The time to play as the Green Goblin is only about 10 minutes, but then again, In just 10 minutes, he killed Little Spider's girlfriend. It is really a rare high-efficiency villain in recent years. By the way, there is a special soundtrack that is worth mentioning. Wow, great electronic music from Hans. It’s very cool and enjoyable to be bombed in the cinema. The 3D effect is also quite good, at least in the few super movies I watched. The 3D effects in hero movies are the best, especially in the post-Avenger era. It is commendable for the special effects to be so good and not popular. There are plenty of laughs and gimmicks in the movie. The new version is closer to the comics and all kinds of jokes. This is why I call him super annoying Spider-Man. In contrast, the old version of Spider-Man is simply a dumb. And compared to the old version, the new version of Spider-Man is obviously more gorgeous and more creative in action design, and the male and female protagonists are younger. Of course, the main consumer groups of movie theaters are the post-90s and post-80s, so this is understandable.
Many friends who have not walked into the movie theater may be afraid that they have no basis in comics. If they have not seen the old version of Spider-Man before, will they be confused when watching the new version directly. In fact, there is no need to worry. This is not a pure fan-oriented movie, even if It doesn't matter if you haven't seen the original American comics or the movies of the Marvel series at all. This is definitely a movie that is very friendly to novices. As for why the old version of the movie called "Spider-Man" has now become "The Amazing Spider-Man", as far as I know, there is a saying that Maguire, the actor of the old version of "Spider-Man", because the asking price is too high, so simply Sony Discard it and restart it directly. Anyway, this is basically a series that can be determined to make money. Whether it really depends on the benevolent, so in fact, the old version and the new version are not the same series. Using Marvel's world view to explain it is that they did not happen in the same series. Space is a story that takes place in a different and parallel space. Marvel and DC have always had precedents for introducing parallel space into their works. Perhaps Spiderman is a good person in this space, and a bad person in another space.
There is no doubt that it seems to be a very successful series that has restarted, especially the second one that exposed Sony’s ambitions for the future. "X-Men" has also done a lot, including the restart of the "Fantastic Four" series in the past two years. On the other hand, DC has been very successful in restarting the entire DC world view through last year's "Superman Iron Man", so Sony I have to expand the world of Spider-Man, but Sony has no superhero capable of supporting the entire movie except Spider-Man, so I have to squeeze enough value out of the villain to make up for it. It has basically been Certainly, there will be a rumored movie of "Venom" after "Arabic 2", followed by a rumored movie of "The Sinister Six", of course, there will also be the unbeatable "The Amazing Spider-Man 3" and "The Amazing Spider". "Xia 4", if it works well, it can also create a completely different business model from other giants.
In all the superhero movies, Stone Sister and Garfield can be regarded as the best couple (they are also a couple outside the scene). There are not many emotional dramas between Iron Man and Pepper, and neither is Thor's girlfriend. Especially important, Captain America and Black Widow are just playing ambiguous, and the X-Men don’t pay much attention to emotional drama, so this is also a very good gimmick for Sony, but I’m wondering why we let Stone Sister in the second part. Gwen, who is playing, is dead? When Gwen died, it was said that the clothes and the comics were the same when he died. At that time, the audience was quiet and everyone was dumbfounded. It was really dead until the funeral. Sony said he killed him. Don’t you think about the feelings of movie fans? We are your food and clothing parents, really can't figure it out, but I think no matter who starred in Mary Jane in the third part, there must be a lot of people who don't like her, because we love Sister Stone too much.
By the way, the version released in China this time is the same as overseas. It is not the so-called Chinese special edition. I think the respect for Chinese fans should not be the same as "Iron Man 3". Fan Bingbing and Wang Xueqi should not be like soy sauce. "Robocop 2014" is only released in China in the so-called 3D version. In contrast, "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" is more sincere, but there is no egg pit at the end of the film. However, it is said that the eggs at the end of the film have nothing to do with the sequel. They just paid back personal love to Fox for the director and made a pre-war for Fox's "X-Men" to be released on May 23. Please Baidu for specific details. In fact, there are already a lot of easter eggs hidden in the film, and careful friends should be very excited to see those easter eggs.
Perhaps many people who don’t know much about the world of superheroes will ask, why is there no Spider-Man in the Avengers? It is because Marvel leased the adaptation rights of Spider-Man to Sony many years ago, and Marvel is Disney’s, and "Avengers" is also a work of Disney. Of course, two competing companies, Sony and Disney, will not easily cooperate. In the same way, the film copyrights of the X-Men series and Fantastic Four series are not in Marvel's hands, but in the hands of Twentieth Century Fox. Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that Marvel’s Avengers series is more powerful. As Fox, Sony, and Disney continue to expand their territory, there will be more and more intersections in the future, such as the next X-Men The Ministry will introduce the role of Kuaiyin, and Kuaiyin appears at the end of Captain America 2, so there is a conflict. In fact, Kuaiyin is the son of Magneto in the X-Men and should be "closer" to Fox. , But if Marvel portrays this role better, it will inevitably steal the limelight from Fox. So in the future, it is entirely possible for the X-Men, Spider-Man, and Fantastic Four to join forces to resist Marvel’s invasion. Oh! By the way, the Justice League led by Superman and Batman that DC is preparing will also have a share of the pie in the future.
On May 23rd, Fox’s latest "X-Men: Reversing the Future" series will be released simultaneously in China and around the world, so stay tuned!
