I always though Doc Ock was too goofy looking. In the cartoon in the 90s, he was in yellow and green and had a stupid haircut. Couldn't take him seriously.
Venom was where it was at for me.
I already had it before writing this blog and it went well, but thanks! lol
And the tone is already different, the character number is what gets me.
I love his behind the scenes talk as well. For a while I thought Paul heyman was Penn jillette cause of their similar voices. lol
Lol at the Thrones thing.
I love the swinging in this, it has the best effects so far for a Spidey movie, but I can see how you'd get dizzy.
I did not catch any of those references and being unfamiliar with Spidey outside of games and movies, I have no idea who that second person you mentioned is, though I do like Black Cat. lol
As for the rating, it technically means there were mixed reviews, and that 54 out of every 100 critics seemed to like it, but it's still oddly low to me.
I loved the Sly trailer and I've played a lot more of his games and enjoyed them more than what I have played of R&C. I knew about the R&C movie already, though. I bet I'll get a sneak peek at more movie footage when we go to Insomniac.
I'm sorry things aren't going your way. 
On a happier note, there's a Sly Cooper movie?! Why had I not heard of this?!
His point wasn't really about violence in the general sense. He was saying these video games further desensitize us to the reality that opposing soldiers in war are also human beings with families and friends. I completely agree. They're not the only medium that does this; as he pointed out; but westerners are definitely coming to war from a black/white perspective of good and evil more often than not. It's a perspective that doesn't exist in the real world, but does exist in fictional media like video games to make us feel good about the random acts of virtual violence we carry out. His point about the Arab guy getting shot at in the game, who is possibly wondering why these people invaded his country and shot his family members to death with drones, was a perfect summation of this phenomenon.
In short, that was a great video and I think the guy is spot on. Our media is a reflection of our fallacious monkeysphere morality, in which those who are foreign, different to us, or not immediately understood by us may as well not be human. It's scary to think about.
First one is good, but definitely not as good as this sequel, in my opinion. The series is a lot different tonally and otherwise from Raimi's, so you might like it. If nothing else, the fact a guy whose last name is Webb is directing these is a pretty awesome fact.
I like the original trilogy more than the first Amazing, but that said, this may be my favorite Spidey movie so far. Maybe. I'll have to marathon all of them at some point.
