In Reply to: Apologies in advance for differing with you on this, but the entire Superman series... posted by Audiophilander on May 30, 2002 at 15:18:49:
The only thing "new" about Spidey is the CGI Efx and the orange hair of the...ahem...heroine.Though cut from the same, fad film cloth, for a film of it's time, the original Superman still rules !
Spidey's casting just doesn't make it, unless you're a fan of "Friends". One can't seriously compare the small-tube, dime store Lex Luthor, to Gene Hackman's well rounded, camp performance. It just isn't a convincing argument! Good try if you've never seen the original Superman movie, though.
Orange hair and new CGI just can't give it the edge it needs to become a genuine classic of the Superman stature.
There has to be "more"! That special something.
Let's see if it holds up when the sequel comes out! That will be the REAL test! Soon to be an eBay collector's item, the Spidey craze is already ending...Star Wars is beating it to death in the box office !
