This is the scene in question, he literally gets tazed and captured


Its the first movie in that series. He was probably learning how to swing not 40 minutes before (movie time wise) this happened. He's not going to have perfected his powers within however long the movie took place, especially if it's an origin story.

Spiderman is street level so his rogue gallery makes sense for the most part. It's only when he does cross over events with more powerful super heroes when it starts making less sense.

I think he's probably one of the better handled super heroes in terms of a consistent power level though. Whenever he becomes more powerful it's due to a suit change or some temporary change in his power.

Isn't he supposed to be super strong? I mean his spider-sense doesn't even seem to work half the time(whether it's an inherit flaw or because there would be little to no drama if he just dodged everything has never been clarified)


He is super strong but not like God strong or cosmic strong. I believe he can lift up to 10 tons now (correct me if I'm wrong) making him stronger than Captain America. But brute strength isn't really his thing anyways, and it takes a toll on him whenever he maxes out.

Spidersense works but just because he knows something will happen before it does doesn't mean he'll be able to avoid it. They show this pretty well quite often.

We've seen him taken by surprise in a lot of media. Like he literally got shot in the leg by a random cop in the Amazing Spider-Man movie. How tf did that even happen?

Same guy who seconds earlier, activated spider-sense from being unconscious and took down several officers when his mask was removed


Didn't watch that movie so I wouldn't know. But writing is another factor and it from what it sounds like those Amazing movies weren't well written lol

It also depends on how seasoned of a Spiderman we're talking about here. Comic Spiderman has caught bullets with his hands before. The movie Spidermans are all pretty amateur, even Toby McGuire's.

I'm still on Ep 1 and I started on Monday lol they should definitely cut the Goty eps down. Also, I kinda hate Abbie.

Abbie literally threw Yakuza 0 under the bus just so fucking Dream Daddy could make top 10 last year. Her whole reasoning was "but the dialogue is sooo good!" Fuck her >_>

Is she at least better this year?


I'm still on the first podcast and she doesn't talk a lot, but when she does it's been pretty bad. She thinks Florence should be up for GotY for instance.

I think you guys are just making shit up now. Melania Trumps past isnt a secret and its pretty clear that shes uncomfortable in her role as the so-called First Lady. I cant think of any Republicans who legitimately think she is classy, let alone vocally promote her as such.

This is one of those clear-cut punching down moments that are usually discouraged on feminist sites, but get overlooked for Melania because of the dislike for Trump.


Nope. The vast majority of liberals treat Melania as some type of Stockholm Syndrome victim. She's not and does not deserve any amount of pity.

Ivanka lost any benefit of the doubt when she literally did government business on a private email server
