I haven't seen Amazing Spider-Man yet but the reviews from the critics I trust tell me is good-ish. Like Kinda good with terrible parts that lower the quality of the whole film but it never crosses the line to become bad. I don't know, I'm watching it next tuesday.
Now Im not a Spider-Man fan, never have been. Liked Spectacular (the theme song roped me in) and that's about it, and I never really liked the Sam Raimi movies and I liked Amazing just fine, just looking them as Movies and not as adaptations. But just watching the Marvel films with much lesser known and much less marketable (*Cough* Captain America *cough*) characters tells me that they could probably muster a much better movie than what Sony has done so far.
And this is not even about Spider-Man being on the Avengers, honestly he doesn't seem like he would get to do much and would probably take away too much screen time from the other Avengers. It's more to the fact that the worst received (so far) Spider-Man movies have been 3 and Amazing 2 (which again, I haven't seen so maybe I disagree with this wholeheartly) and they both reportedly had a ton of interference from Sony. Now the Marvel films are made of studio interference, every storyline follows a storyarc that leads to The Avengers. But they somehow make that work.
So what you think (specially those of you that actually have watched the Amazing Spider-Man 2), would Marvel do a better job?
