DareDevil better than Spiderman

Started by ScarletSpider4 pages

Back to the part of the subject that was about the movie...

I think it had some potential, but the poor writing and casting kept it from achieving any success. Afleck just sucks. He's not a good action actor, hell, he's not a good actor at all. Elektra was ok, could have been better, but this was her first movie I think, so I made some allowances for being bellow-par. Kingpin needed to be a little more stoic and gruff. I think Duncan was a good choice, he's a big guy, and as for changing race, that makes sense I think, not to do any racial profiling, but poor kids from the Bronx stand just as much a chance of being african american as being caucasian, and it was mostly the comic industry's racial attitudes during the 60's that made him white to begin with.

The park scene was just horrible, an introductory fight between DD and Elektra would be fine, but it would have been better if DD had followed her to a dojo or something, she's supposed to be some big-to-do martial artist right? And much more. For a funny "article" on the movie...

I'm curious, Mr. Parker; when Spiderman 2 (or Manspider 2, if you prefer) comes out, will you see it? If not, why does it bother you that it's coming out? If you will, why?

yeah I'll see it.I got one of those movie deals when you see 10 movies the 10th is free,so since its free might as well.I only want to see it because the special effects of OCK climbing the builidngs look really impressive and I want to see that,plus OCK is my 2nd favorite villian after GREEN GOBLIN,a reason why I wanted to see the first film,but after the 2nd one this summer,I probably wont see anymore.sony has screwed up and ruined the spidey mythos so much I wont be able to sit through them anymore after MANSPIDER 2.DAREVIL could have been a better film as well, no doubt about that,but it was a hell of a lot more closer to being more faithful to the source material than spiderman was.

I personally would rather see them team up than fight each other

Uh spidey. all spidey has to do is use his superior speed to creep up behind dd's back and shout in his ear! 🙂

true

or not true considering DDs radar sense or super hearing preventing anyone creeping up on him.But I do believe spidey would win in a fight eventually.
