movies/tv The Amazing Spider-Man Series Discussion Thread

[CornBreadGang 514]

So, with the recent release of yet another movie under the line of The Amazing Spider-Man, I figured it was about time to make a discussion thread on the series. There was no thread for the series already so heck, maybe this could be the official thread for the series. I'll present a brief overview of each of the movies, and what is planned for future films from synopsis' I have read.

 

The Amazing Spider-Man 1: Young Peter Parker is left with his aunt and uncle after the disappearance of his parents. In a quest to find answers, Peter finds a briefcase that belongs to his dad, and the ultimate hunt begins. In a trip to Oscorp to find out more about his father's partner, Peter is bit by a genetically engineered spider. Amazingly, he gains the powers of a spider. After his uncle dies, Peter vows to fight evil as "Spider-Man". His struggle is only beginning, because Doctor Curt Connors, Peter's father's partner, has changed, and not for the better...

The Amazing Spider-Man 2: the hunt is still on for Peter Parker as his quest for answers delves deeper. With tragedy unfolding in his life, Peter's greatest challenge begins when Max Dillon, a former fan of Spider-Man, becomes Electro and begins to destroy the city. More tragedy comes Peter's way when his friend , Harry Osborn, slowly descends into darkness...

The Amazing Spider-Man 3: (I have read multiple synopsis' on this film from Marvel. The following, however, may not be correct.) Peter's life is falling apart after awful tragedies overturn his life. Things only get worse when six villains arise to kill Spider-Man. Lost and depressed, Peter loses hope. And when a strange alien symbiote turns his suit black, Peter doesn't fight it as he descends into darkness and anger...

<Release Date: May 10, 2016>

 

Venom: (Once again, no official synopsis can be found here) A single film reflects on the creation of the ultimate evil: Venom. After the symbiote leaves Peter, it bonds with Eddie Brock, and the two merge to make Venom. This is their story...

<Release Date: 2015, 2016, or 2017>

 

The Sinister Six: A movie depicting the formation and the outcome of the Sinister Six...

<Release Date: 2015, 2016, or 2017>

 

There is supposed to be an Amazing Spider-Man 4 and 5 as well, but no idea has been formed for them yet.

 

So, this thread is all about what you think of these movies. I will update the synopsis' as more info on the movies are released.

 

So, let the discussion on these films begin.
