    Spider-Man

    Character » Spider-Man appears in 17243 issues.

    Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider as a teenager, granting him spider-like powers. After the death of his Uncle Ben, Peter learned that "with great power, comes great responsibility." Swearing to always protect the innocent from harm, Peter Parker became Spider-Man.

    Is there anything the Spider-Man guys can learn from the success of the Deadpool movie?

    The Deadpool movie made a lot of money, so I'm reasonably sure as lot of film studios are trying to figure out what they can steal for other franchises. And this probably applies to Spider-Man. Is there anything in the Deadpool films that can be applied to Spider-Man, either the comics or the films?

    To me, It shouldn't follow the Marvel formula. Marvel has used the same formula a couple of times and while a winning formula, it shouldn't be a crutch. Plus, Spider-Man is already a well established character in the audiences' minds so we don't need that formula for an already told story. Make Spider-Man feel fresh.

    Also I really enjoyed the banter between Vanessa and Wade and made me glad for the first time for a superhero romance. It didn't feel like it was chucked in there to fufill the love interest quota. I think Peter could benefit whether it be MJ or Felicia to bounce off on in the movie. Gwen & Peter were too lovey dovey and boring with dialogue for my taste in Amazing.

    Also the humor. While not Deadpool's humor, it would be great to see Peter be funny and not just be allocated one quip per hour.

    Appropriate flashbacks. Nothing overdone. I wouldn't mind a cool opening sequence that establishes things so we can have it done and dusted.

    I actually wouldn't mind narrating from Peter. It could fit his character.

    Maybe they could learn to make a good movie for a change.
