I read Spiderman comics as a kid, and I know the background very well. That's not what my rant is about. My point is that they didn't even try to take the idea of Spiderman to another level---which is what a good movie is supposed to do.The storylines in the early Superman and Batman movies were true to the original vision, yet they took some chances outside the basic story everybody knew.
Spiderman was structured with an assembly line script---it moves along like it was put together by a kiddie-tested focus group. I see nothing wrong in disliking that kind of movie, even one with origins in a comic book.
