PS: IMDb Poll Board: Movies You Feel Different About, Negatively

I just re-watched bits of The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) which I rated 7/10. Except for the spider-man costume, it is total garbage. I will need to re-rate it somewhere between 3/10 and 5/10.

My love of superhero films seems to have greatly diminished between May 4th, 2012, the release date of The Avengers (the first superhero film that I have seen in a theater) and now.

I never understood why Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man costume looks off or like computer-generated imagery (at least some of the time). Maybe it is, or maybe it isn't, but it looks cartoony, whereas the is far less so the case with the costumes for Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland at least match the lighting of the scene. With such heavy reliance upon chroma key imagery (blue screen, green screen, infrared mattes etc.) in today's movies, I'm slightly amazed at how well the Marvel Cinematic Universe materials turned out, but of course, as we know, computer-generated imagery is done correctly when the audience cannot even tell that it is even involved. This applies to animatronics, puppets, miniatures, mattes and all the other techniques too.

Thanks cinehile, I added Captain America

Something along the lines of The Guyver or its sequel might be just one of several for me, and I didn't even see the original through and through but only the final boss fight. Revisiting it (that particular scene) many decades later, I can definitely see how the great concept could've benefited from a higher production value and cinematographic expertise. I would like to think of an example of something that I used to watch frequently, but no longer have the desire to watch anymore, not even once in a while. The box office flop Masers of the Universe perhaps fits the bill, but its few outstanding redeeming qualities are somewhat clear, even after all these decades, so it is still a fun movie. Many of the products of Cannon Films face similar evaluation. The remake of The Blob is an interesting case, with its heavy reliance upon shock value while depicting the uncovering of a despicable, slightly-contrived coverup by some kind of defense contractor or military research program, but with that in mind, Outbreak and tons of other movies could be lumped with it.

Thanks for your reaction! Which movie shall I add? The Guyver (1991)?

@dibyayan_chakravorty  Thanks! Added!

Anaconda starring Jennifer Lopez seemed pretty cool when it came out, especially considering the life-like animatronics, but the computer-generated imagery hasn't aged quite well, and certain aspects of the storytelling and acting were always slightly hokey (like a Lifetime television flick), enough that one can't necessarily take seriously the situations faced by the characters. The sequels to the movie were abysmal, and it is easy to see that films like Anaconda usually aren't capable of resulting in quality sequels, kind of like how the original Mortal Kombat film wasn't sufficient to be followed up with a sequel that could do service to it.
