She survived.. heh, she's a tough chick. She also gets her own movie Elektra next year and most likely will be on DD2 as well. |
Yeah well, you never saw her again in the movie so she might as well have died. :p |

True. But i knew the the movie will follow the path of the comics and i knew they couldn't kill her that easily. Just couldn't do that because she's so important character in DD's world. |

So what did you guys think about that necklace at the end of the movie ? She herself left it for him ? |
|

| Wouldn't that be very typical Hollywood thing? A person who everyone thought got killed, didn't die but left a hint he/she is still alive. I don't believe Elektra left that necklace but someone who helped her to disappear. That would sound more reasonable because she was in so weak condition she wouldn't have been able to do anything. We'll see the answers in Elektra's movie i think.. |

You might be right . I only wish they replace Ben fleck with somebody else in the next movie . |

Its a good thing they get more actors like Tobey Maguire in these comic adaptations. Actors who are relatively unknown to the big masses. Makes the movies more interesting to see new fresh faces, not always the same ones with just a pretty face (like Affleck in DD :eyes: ).
And personally, i think Tobey is ok as Peter Parker. You must have very limited idealism if his acting ruines the cartoon series. I keep the cartoons and movies separate, they don't affect on each other. This is just my opinion though. |

I did not like the voice, of that guy, he is not event 1.80 meter i think, just not peter parker, and it's not that peter parker was lame for me, the movie it self, it was containing more emotion then action, spidy is an action figur not soap figur.
anyway that is mine opinon, i do aggree more unknown actors, and deardevil sucks too..hulk sucks.Il stick with cartoons :) if i wanne watch that stuff again |
