I'm in my late 20's, and I rarely, if ever, put on two socks that match. It's not that I'm lazy, I just don't give a fuck. They're socks. Hardly anyone ever sees them. I don't match them after I do my laundry, and I sure as fuck don't organize my clothing. I get up, and put on two socks that don't have holes in them yet, and that's as much thought as I give it before I proceed to work at home for about 14 hours, lol.

Unless you are 100 years old you need to watch Punky Brewster and STFU.

I did watch Punky. Socks (like shoes, and gloves, and anything else that comes in pairs) are still supposed to match when you wear them. That's why they come in pairs.Ninja Scooter said:
EDIT: And I hope that some of you are talking about wearing, say, two brown or charcoal socks that aren't quite the same shade with a suit. That I can understand a little. If you're talking about wearing a white sock and a black one together, or something like hipster Parker in that pic, however... really? I mean, REALLY?

You're forgetting about the monsters that always steal one of those pairs in the dryer.

So did you're generation turn out alright even though Punky dressed like a fucking idiot? A lot of the current trendy kid clothing is all inspired by shit from the 80s anyway. Peter Parker in those pics looks like he could have easily been transplanted from a John Hughes movie.

Honestly? Sometimes I see my generation's kids, and they're either morbidly obese or image-conscious beyond their years, texting their friends and oblivious to everything around them, and I wonder.Ninja Scooter said:
Not that Punky's wardrobe had anything to do with that. Or did it..?

There was an episode where Punky's friend Cherry almost died because they were playing hide and seek and she hid in a REFRIGERATOR. Kids have always been dumbshits in any generation.

Nope, it's definitely still canon. There was a miniseries out last year that featured one of Gwen's kids.

I must have missed that. It's a shame because once Straczynski and Quesada agreed on the details of One More Day, Straczynski was quite vocal about erasing the Sins Past storyline because he thought it was ruined by editorial decisions (he wanted them to be Peter's kids). I honestly don't think there's a more annoying and talentless person at Marvel than Joe Quesada.

You know what's funny? Five years ago people would've labeled their style as 'emo'.overcast said:

Haha, I thought the exact same thing while I was plowing through this thread yesterday. Shame to see that a great part of this thread is about the new Parker being a hipster or not/ sweaty balls thing.
Anyway, the suit looks very nice IMO. I think this reboot is a little bit too soon for my taste, but I will definitely see this in the theatre when it comes out.
Salvor.Hardin said:
Haha, yeah, I remember this like it was yesterday.
Fans: "Wow, marvel sucks. They're seriously going to just erase 20 years over some bullshit! Oh well, at least Sins Past will be erased as well - somewhat of a silver lining..."
Quesada: "Noooooope! Not only are we going to fuck over the marriage and continuity, we're going to keep Sins Past entirely! Got ya bitches!"
Fans: "FUUUUUUUUUU!"
I think it looks fine so far. I still have issues with the design of the suit but I'll wait to see how it looks on film when everything is as it should be.
I don't get the hipster bitching, the only issue is he is wering skinny jeans and deserves a punch in the area where his dick should be (but isn't because of the skinnys).

Sins Past was a terrible storyline, but giving Peter two adult children would arguably have been far more damaging to the character. At least what was published only really fucked up a supporting character who'd been dead for over thirty years of publishing time.

I still haven't gotten over how badly they dealt with the marriage retcon. Peter Parker was so out of character through out. And by doing away with their marriage, they single handedly ruined one of the greatest Spidey story arcs ever written (Kraven's Last Hunt). And as if that wasn't enough, they also resurrected Kraven. A group of mentally retarded children would make for a better Brain Trust for the Spider-Man comics than the current lot.
Father_Brain said:
I agree. Straczynski's original plan was worse. I hate Quesada because as the EiC he was in the position to shoot down the idea entirely, but instead he ran with most of it. In fact when Straczynski first started his Amazing Spider-Man run, he was probably the best writer the character had in almost a decade and all of his plots were fresh, well written and well thought out. Eventually he became a hack, started relying on cheap gimmicks and even began reusing characters he had already killed. By the end of his run, it felt like he was just throwing out issues to complete his contractual agreement.
Rhys Ifans shooting a scene, a scene wherein he seems to be anxious:

I can't believe the first movie came out 9 years ago.
Who remembers the first time they saw this trailer:

You have to love the cheesy stock music. And how the trailer pretty much gives away the entire movie. But goddamn was it exciting, especially the way it pushed film CG to an entirely new level. Such a good movie.

So excited about Lizard being the villain in this one. There's only one direction to go after Spider-man 3: up.

He has a really small head, a very long neck and large shoulders. It makes him look kind of awkward.
Personally, I think Emile Hirsch would have made a perfect Peter Parker. Garfield will be great though.
