The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (Sony, 4,324 Theaters, 142 Minutes, Rated PG-13):<\/strong>So, it&#8217;s come to this. The film has been in release for a couple of weeks overseas and has already made more than half its budget back yet, so what I can say will have little to do with the films success or failure.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, I have a bad feeling about this film.<\/p>\n<p>I have yet to see it, and I am still going to, but I just have my doubts. Of course, any comic book film that has more than two bad guys gives me bad feelings. This one has three. But it goes on a bit deeper than that.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t like what I&#8217;ve seen of Jamie Foxx&#8217;s pre-Electro performance. It seems like the kind of acting job you&#8217;d get from someone who had no experience hanging around with someone who was a geek. Seems a bit over the top, which makes his personality transformation a little harder to believe.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing that irks me going in his Harry and Peter&#8217;s friendship. They make a point of saying they&#8217;ve been away for 10 years. Well, since Peter is graduating from high school, that means the last time they saw each other was when they were 7 or 8. Not a lot of memorable friendships hold up 10 year apart at that age.<\/p>\n<p>Ah, well. Hopefully my instincts are wrong and we get a good film from this.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/v.traileraddict.com\/84060\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">Spidey swings alone this weekend.<\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2014\/05\/01\/new-releases-may-2-2014\/\" title=\"New Releases: May 2, 2014\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":33441,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[784,1340,5740],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-33440","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-jamie-foxx","9":"tag-sony","10":"tag-the-amazing-spider-man-2"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[2,4],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33440","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33440"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33440\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33441"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33440"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33440"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33440"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=33440"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
