so yall want a new origin?

didnt the new TMNT get flack for that? :mindblown:
no.

i just don't want to see another telling of spiderman's origin....its an old story...kind of like man of steel...they summed up his entire origin [at least the landing-on-earth-superboy] stuff in a single act. I REALLY appreciated that.

You know there's a handful of versions of spiderman right?

And how many of them have been the focus of major motion pictures? Oh, ok.

2. The point is theres plenty more to do but apparently people dont want the same origin.

:dwillhuh:

Kinda confused what you're talking about. The "Peter Parker gets bitten by a radio active spider and turns into Spider-Man" is the go-to origin story for the character in film, dating all the way back to the 1977 made for TV movie. It's been used twice in the past 12 years for 2 separate major motion picture versions of the Spider-Man origin, because again, Columbia Pictures doesn't want to lose the rights.

So what does saying "You know there's a handful of versions of spiderman right?" have to do with anything? They didn't spent millions of dollars to obtain the rights so they can launch a Miles Morales, Spider-Woman, or an even more obscure Spider-Man, series. They're gonna stick to Peter Parker/Aunt May/Uncle Ben, the same origin, and more or less the same template for the character they've been using the last 30+ years.
