Ok I know this is gonna get some hate, and will probably get down voted but it really needs to be said: the reason ALL of the spider man movies have been bad is that the source material is complete shit.

I read comics, which has included multiple versions of SM over the years and the fact is that SM as a conceptual character is great, but the stories have always been complete shit. There has been some exceptions in his stories, but his overarching portrayal in the books has him either being a douchey jackass, or whiney bitch.

Further more, he never got a break from personal loss, or against over the top villans that he has no chance of defeating. His enemies have ALLWAYS been overpowered compared to him, and it seems like he just can’t win against anything other than common street criminals that don’t have superpowers.

He takes too much shit from his boss @... work, he suffers constantly in his personal life either from death of loved ones, or conflict in between his non-SM ego, and the bad guys are written as too strong for him to handle.

Face it, if SM was not such a shitty written comic, maybe the movies would have been better. Talk about a wasted character concept.

Also, I will stipulate that some of the team ups that SM has been in have not been bad at all, however those are exceptions from the rule.
