Sure, Supes had the power, but there was a certain chemistry there. In the new superhero movies, the hero tends to act whipped around his love interest. I like a good romance, but I don't like seeing a character who comes off as "the nice guy". No confidence outside of his costumed persona, and he winds up putting his love interest on a pedestal, worshipping her, even even she comes off as shallow, judgemental, or generall b1tchy. Batman Begins, the Spider-man movies, for example.
Spider-man 2 was alright, I just hated the typical angsty romance where Peter had no spine around MJ. "I can't be with you." "Now I want to be with you, even though I still have my powers." "I've lost my powers, but now I want to be with you. Oops, changed my mind, I want my powers back and want to dump you."

Wasn't Mary Jane super hot in the comic? Why Kirsten Dunst?!?
Also, was she an actor in the comic or a reporter?

1 was a fantastic movie. 2, I wouldn't even give a passing grade.
Still, as a married father of two with a full time job, the question for 3 isn't so much whether I'll "go see it", but, rather, will I pick it up for $10-12 the first time there's a deal on it and the answer to that would be yes.

If you notice one thing about both Spiderman movies, pretty much everybody with the exception of Harry Osborne and Jameson's son looks more ordinary and not like movie stars. This was especially evident in Spiderman 2.

model turned actor.

Still doesn't make sense. Eddie Brock was a fvcking massive tank before he got the venom suit. He just plain doesn't have a build for that character, no matter what his diet is. He'd have to take HGH to even get close.
