the amazing spider man (huh) and the dark knight rises (huh again)

Where's the originality? Why do something that's already there?---oh yeah duh. to profit from.  The first spider man must've been lucrative enough to continue recreating the spider man series.  but fucking hell (i've been saying that a lot).  It's only been like 5 years since spider man 3 came out.  Where's the originality these days in creating a new superhero and not just re-doing the old one? Are production companies not willing to take the risk? and put their fate into the hands of (at least) a new super hero?  (instead of rely upon the pre-existing fan base of old American comic based heroes).  Compare this to Japan: a new super hero every season.  Their was Guilty Crown and Tiger and Bunny recently and then there was Astroboy and Sailor moon in the past.  Gundam is constantly being recreated, but that's seriously OLD! Naruto and Bleach are also super OLD.  Generally long running manga lose their fan base after a while, but unlike spiderman, neither of them are done yet. (bleach soon though).  There will hopefully be NO Bleach 2.    I am sick and tired of Spiderman this and spiderman that.  The previous spiderman as a whole was an okay-pretty good work and recreation already.   Batman is also doing the same thing.  Shame on Christopher Nolan for the Batman series and Marc Webb for the Spiderman series.  Give the new age a new hero and let the old ones stand as legends!

Spiderman vs "The Amazing
Too soon to be recreated.  And it seems as though the filming style changed just by looking at the posters.  I personally don't like the newer style of filming because it is more action, less story.  Or that the action and the effects are given so much attention (bling-bling) that the story is very much secondary. I must admit that I haven't watched it though.  The movie itself may be good, but I'm blogging about lack of character originality in this day and age and recreating too early after the spider man 3 release in 2007.  



Hunter X Hunter (Japan)



1999




2012


Hunter x Hunter is being recreated in Japan but for better purpose.  The manga is not finished, but has progressed some after the finish of Hunter x Hunter  1999.  The new Hunter x Hunter is noticeably different in quality.  It has created a fan base for the new age and is released while other superhero like characters are being created. 


Guilty Crown

Tiger and Bunny
