    It's like X-Men First Class. It's 95% Comic book inaccurate but I could care less and it's my favorite X-Men movie. They told a good story.
    Absolutely spot on.

    I forgot about First Class. In modern day experience, it's rare when I actually enjoy a superhero movie without feeling like I was shortchanged somewhere. At the close of First Class, I felt invigorated.

    A good story cinches it for me in spite of the "Mystique grew up with WHO?" kinda stuff.

        I think that's the first time I've seen the whole suit for this one. Looks positively traditional!

            If y'all are upset at Giamatti's Rhino, think how I felt about Burton's Penguin.

            I kept hoping Nolan would hire Toby Huss as Cobblepott for a peripheral cameo, but let's be honest--he would've screwed it up .

              The more I see of the costume the happier I am. By far the most comic faithful live-action interpretation this side of the Electric Co.

                Definitely getting a Nicholas Hammond vibe from that costume!

                    That final shot of Spidey in action looks amazing (pun intended)! And him fist-bumping the kid was nice too. Though what the hell is Paul wearing? Is that supposed to be the Rhino armor? Will more stuff be added digitally in post? 'Cause it looks incomplete right now.

                      That is a CGI outfit the animators will use as a scale and placement guide when they fill in the Rhino's actual body. Nothing you see in that scene (of him) is what you'll get in the finished product.

                        Oh, that makes more sense. I thought it was armor or something he was wearing.

                          That stand-in Rhino suit is hilarious. Someone should make a custom figure of him!

                          I thought it was odd casting Paul Giamatti, but seeing his expressive face in the stand-in it makes a lot of sense.

                            Yeah, I thought the same thing. And it still looks pretty hammy, but now that I think of it, Romita's Rhino constantly had his mouth wide open showing a row of huge teeth, so this may actually work.

                                When I saw that Giamatti photo, I went "'what the....is that?!!!!"
