    Okay, as a HUGE Spider-Man fan, I'm on the edge of the rail in terms of the whole Spider-Man movie reboot. A lot of people seem to be that way too. Because it can go one of two ways. One, it could be like Spider-Man 3 and appeal to very little fans and ruin the good name of the web-slinger, or it could revolutionize Spider-Man as a big screen icon! Of course, as I'm sure you'll all agree, we want the latter. I personally have been thinking about how this new movie should be done. And I've gotten a lot of good ideas from the unfortunately now-cancelled cartoon, "The Spectacular Spider-Man".  
     
    One, please, do NOT start the series off with another origin story. A good amount of people have seen the first Spider-Man movie or know enough about Spider-Man to know how he came to be. Instead of wasting a whole first movie showing how he became Spider-Man AGAIN, start the movie maybe a few months after he's become a crimefighter.  
     
    Two, give some other villains from the comics a chance to make the big screen. As much as I love the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Venom, and Sandman, some other comic book villains should have a chance to shine. Electro would be neat, or Mysterio, perhaps the Lizard, since he was supposed to be in the running for the fourth movie. Not to say the four villains from the first trilogy shouldn't have a chance to return as well, but give someone else a chance first. Also, if I were to direct a Spider-Man film, I would start off with Spidey already fighting a supervillain. Just imagine the first thing you see on the big screen is him fighting the Shocker in a bank. Awesome.  
     
    Three, balance out Spider-Man and Peter Parker's screen time. Audiences need a chance to see Spidey's "normal" side, yet they don't want to spend the whole movie just seeing this dorky kid whine and complain. We want action. Lots of awesome action. Balance it out so we aren't sitting through 3 quarters of the movie before we get any action. That's boring! 
     
    Finally, make Spider-Man a wise-cracker and less of a whiner, like in the comics. He hardly ever made any quips in the first three movies, and it was a bummer. Spidey is supposed to make people laugh, not bore them with his complaining or sorrow.   
     
    These are just a few things that could make for a better movie. But I'm just one guy and obviously, this won't appeal to everyone. But any ideas you guys have, I'd be more than happy to hear them. What villains do you think should be in there? What do you think could make the reboot a better experience for everyone?
