I am in the UK and the news that Spidey is definitely making it onto the big screen is excellent news to a great many fans....but an air of concern also. Only a few years ago, to be honest Mr Raimi would never have been in the running for director. His name seems to be synonymous with 'cheapness'. Now I am a great Evil Dead fan and Raimi did stuff in that film that no one had ever seen before...so I hope at least that the trend will continue. The only superhero fodder that I have seen Sam do is Darkman. the first one wasn't too bad- the rest...well, never mind. I have all my fingers and toes crossed that this movie is going to be great. What with The Phantom Menace, Batman and Robin etc. cacking up our screens after overhype..i just want to see Spidey do his thing properly!!! Here's hoping!
