That's not new for me, i use opera, and i open every thread in a new window, and before i read them, i first open all threads that i want to read.
sometimes up to 15
(but a great thing about opera is that it uses inprogram windows)

** pours Stilgar a C.C.B. ** I went to see it last Sunday :) - to me, it is indeed a great movie. I was worried when I first heard of the plans to bring Spiderman to the big screen, but I feel they did a great job doing so. Plenty of room for a sequel too (though we all know sequels usually end up being filmed for the sole purpose of making more money and not for creating great stories... :o )
EDIT - spelling error :)

The thing is people base the concept of sequels around the dreaded Batman series *shudders*

No matter how bad a sequel is, as long as they find people willing to pay to go see it, things will never change... Not many original action movies these days (e.g. Matrix effects booming) ** takes another drink from his E.C.h.C. **

Can't complain - prepared the monthly report for June today. I had about 7.5 hours I had to redirect, so I was looking for Procrastinators (Thief of Time Terry Pratchett), but I ended up dumping them on Fas :D ** takes another drink from his E.C.h.C. ** and don't worry about Garfield... it looks cute ;)

Not all sequals are bad.
But spiderman is a special case, the most of the story line was already written by the comics, so there wasn't any room to create a story.
I do know that the sequal is with doc oc and the lizzard. I was hoping for the red-skull. but whe can't have it all.

The only thing that's changed in the story in the movie is that he shoots the web from his hands instead of from a machine. And i ahve to admit i like it better.

Yeah, they already have the story planned out spread over several films, I'll bet... not like the case when most bad sequels are produced: they make one good movie, and then make inferior clones of it just to make more money. :rolleyes:

@CM that's so selfish :p

@Eery well really, how much can happen in a month? :D

Oh yeah according to swiss news, Spiderman 2 comes out in 2003 and Spiderman 3 comes out in 2004. While X-men 2 comes out in between 2003 Summer and 2004 summer. There is your sequel news.
