Ive seen the clips on TV. It looked like it might be good. ES, Are you saying the clips are the best part of the movie?

I'd say yes, but that is my opinion. Someone else might love the movie. It wasn't totally terrible, but it was a bit dull. I just didn't care about what happened to the characters, so that was probably the main problem.

Thanks ES. I think I will take a pass on that movie then.
To me theres nothing worse than a trailer being better than the movie.

Tonight's movie was the new Spiderman movie.

Great special effects, wonderful hammy super villains. Hans Zimmer as usual did a great job on the music score. Some movies have been totally ruined for me by a bad movie score, but Zimmer always delivers.

I really enjoyed this one and I like the latest reboot of the spiderman movies. Andrew Garfield captures the teen arrogance and wit of the character which is great to watch. Emma Stone provides the usual love interest whose purpose is to motivate the hero, either through being in peril or being the hero's reward. I kind of wish they'd get over this trope and give the ladies a bit more depth. This movie isn't the worst in this area so I'll let it pass, but it is getting old.

So if you are looking for a good action movie with some very watchable actors in it, go see The Amazing Spiderman 2. I am looking forward to the Amazing Spiderman 3 which is surely on the cards.

Thanks ES.

For me, anything MARVEL is AWESOME!!! I'm looking forward to the new X-Men movie, too. However; as to The Amazing Spiderman saga, if they hold true to the comic book, the girlfriend, (Emma Stone's character), is supposed to die. Her character takes place in Peter's life before Mary Jane Watson.

I am a fan of The Amazing Spiderman series; however, Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst will always be the best at these parts, to me. Emma Stone's character is fine; however, Peter is meant to marry Mary Jane.

Just my two cents as a huge Spidey fan.

I agree, and I've been looking for a mini-series he scored, called, "The Gor Saga". The series itself was very good, and I'd like to see it again, but I've really been wanting to have at least the music.

The mind is a weird and mysterious place

last night we went to see "Neighbours" because Godzilla isn't out until next week and we've seen Captain America already.

I was pleasantly surprised as it was actually quite funny. Lots of slapstick and dick jokes, but pretty well done and some real surprises. If you need a really stupid low brow belly laugh then I'd recommend it.

Went to see Spiderman 2 in 3D on Saturday, not bad at all, a bit scary for the young one though, she's only 6.

Yeah, I'd think it would be. Did she enjoy it anyway?

Godzilla is out this weekend and the first review I read doesn't look good. I'm covering someone else's class on Friday night so I won't be able to see it then, we are debating whether to go and see it early before I go to work or wait until Saturday.

In the end we went to see Godzilla this morning as I couldn't go last night. It was good fun but incredibly cheesy! Loved the monsters, and Godzilla himself was great.

There was a nice slow build up where we got to know the characters and learn about the mystery of the monster. Great special effects, and it didn't seem like it was 2 1/2 hours long.

There were some really stupid moments and it did seem at times like they were just throwing everything they could into one movie.

We liked spotting the film locations as a lot of it was filmed around here. Any fans of Once Upon a Time would have recognised the "clocktower". I spotted the scene that was filmed down the road (and caused much confusion at the time because they had changed the street names for the filming and we nearly missed our turning).

The HALO jump scene stood out for its visuals Godzilla - Official Teaser Trailer [HD]. It seems like someone really loved that scene and the use of the Ligeti music made it seem like a painting of Milton's Paradise Lost. Very unearthly and mythic.

The whole thing was great daft fun.

Thanks ES for the review. As I remember the original Godzilla was pretty cheesy also.:) With low budget special effects. But still it captivated us young kids.
Glad to know this movie is still fun.
