    Can you imagine how pissed fans would be in this modern age, if Mark Ruffalo was cast as "David" Banner in an upcoming Hulk live-action series like in the 1978 TV series. Or if they released a live-action series feat. Captain Marvel, with significant changes to the source material (this occurred in the '70s as well). Adam West and Burt Ward portrayed Batman and Robin once. The standards for superhero productions have risen considerably in the past half-century.

    Tobey makes a better Peter than Andrew(excluding Spider-Man 3 but that wasn't all Tobey's fault). Andrew makes a better Spider-Man. If they did the fusion dance from DBZ to form the ultimate Spider-Man actor I'd be happy.

    Oh my goodness, I had almost forgotten the Nolan verse. I suppose "Dick" was too suggestive for today's impressionable audiences. They still could have gone with Richard. Pfft, he's ROBIN just in case you're not familiar with the DC universe and/or the OBVIOUS REFERENCE flew over your head!

    I DON'T think you know what the word objective means.

    Or maybe I realize the word itself IS subjective if you really wanna break it down hard enough and the only sensible way to do things is to judge by a reasonable, achievable rubric rather than constantly, pedantically, repeating the nauseatingly epistemological "NOTHING is truly objective" line like a dead philosopher from the 60's

    See, here's my take: I knew it was coming. But I loved Emma's portrayal, I loved the chemistry, and I just wanted it to not happen. The way the scene was done feels like they toyed with that. They knew that people knew she was toast. But they didn't want it to be a "OH YEP! THERE IT IS MOMENT!" They seem to have wanted to give a bit of hope that it was going to change and be its own canon. Granted, I might be interpreting it based on my own emotions to the scene, but it just feels like that's why. They didn't want it to be a passing moment while they act out the comics. Adaptation still want to be identifiable and leave the same mark on people who have no experience with the source material that the source material had.

    OH, **** YOU, ****SAKEN
    Thank you, gingercakes.
    Oh, I'm glad they killed her. I was almost shaking as it was happening, but I do hope they bring her back just like you said. It's also notable that it was recently revealed that Sony has plans for a female-led film in the universe (Black Cat? I need more Felicity Jones in my life).
    So did I. I loved it.
