No no, you've got it all wrong.
The first movie was just plain bad. I like seeing geek icons on screen as much as the next.. er.. geek, and I couldn't give a damn whose money got them there. (Okay, maybe if you were robbing old grannies...) It's the plot, the acting, treatment they get by the director that matters, and the first Spiderman movie was a formulaic, uninteresting, effects-laden waste of my $12 and 2 hours, geek icon or no.
And now they've gone and made another one. At least I know to sit this one out.
