All I can say is "Finally". A Mary Jane that I can see myself wanting to bang :D

Mary Jane is a redhead and she isn't in this movie. The person you're referring to is Gwen Stacy. :)

If you hung around at the end of the movie to see the hidden scene interlace during the credits, you would have seen Doc Curt Connors talks to someone in the prison cell.

Anyone know who that other person could be?

Michael Massee is the actor and is said to be Norman Osborn

Saw the movie last night. Was not a fan of this one. The 2002 version was a lot better. Garfield as Peter Parker was a real bad choice to play the role. The acting skills was subpar at best. You don't feel sorry for Garfield character you do with Toby but Toby is a much better actor. A big let down of the movie was how they told the story. It didn't explain the important stages of how Parker became spiderman. It seem like they wanted people to watch the 2002 to fill in the gabs in 2012. For an example when Peter was looking for te guy who kill his uncle, he falls in to an old wrestling ring and see a poster of a mask which he use to make his costume from. The problem is that he learns how to fight from wrestling which they show in the 2002 version.

The lizard was hardly in the movie. Peter hardly took any photos which is a really important hard of Peter Parker character which the movie shows that part as an after thought.

Spoiler: Who puts their name on a camera in the first place? It shows that Parker was not really bright. Also Spiderman didn't do a good job with hiding his face from the public. Which made it unrealistic to have a secret life.

Peter doesn't really start up the photo biz until college.

I thought Garfield was a fantastic Peter Parker, to be honest. He was funny, witty, and well.. not ToMac. He has great chemistry with Gwen Stacey here because he's dating Emma Stone. They played off eachother quite well.

Most of my friends that are very picky comic book readers thoroughly enjoyed the movie, some moreso than Avengers (which to me was just Expendables, Comic Book edition).

I thought this movie was by far better than the other SpiderMan movies with Toby M in it.

In my opinion I thought the story, the relationship between all characters and everything else was really good.

Yes it did, the spiders were being farmed for their super strength web after genetic enhancement, and one bit Parker and he turned into a spiderman. Pretty simple. I know they didn't go into great detail but that's all you needed to know tbh.

I'm not normally a fan of the Spiderman series anyway, but though this reboot was by far better than any of the other three that have been made recentley. Also, I can't stand Toby Maguire or Kirsten Dunst and preferred Garfield and Stone.

Shes so hot.

This movie was amazing! Loving this new era of Marvel movies. If they can keep up this pace, it is going to be great for us all.

This movie seemed best to watch in 3D. So many moments just seemed shot for 3D only. Was very well done.

This wasn't a Marvel movie. Marvel movies are made by their parent company Disney, this movie was made by Columbia as Sony still owns the rights to make Spiderman movies.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.

      Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600

      This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

      Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
