Creepy Leia/Vader subtext aside, that guy is a massive dork and he is probably fortunate to pull off a lady who can fill out a Slave Leia getup so well.

NO U

Iron Man was pretty good.

For the rest of them, yeah, the Stan Lee cameo is pretty much the only part you need to see (and in Spider Man 3 even that part is horrible).

5 stars for the one Stan Lee cameo where he is actually Stan Lee.

every single one of them killed a part of my childhood

I was going to give it four stars, but then you went and did that.

And he's only been waiting for movies about superheroes to become popular for his whole goddamn life. Let the old man be in some terrible movies for a few minutes. It's not like he's ruining great works of art.

I guess it just seems kind of hollow and weird to me that Lee gets all the credit and accolades while Kirby and Ditko and etc. are largely forgotten except by die-hard nerds.

I realize that Kirby's been dead for 15 years and you're not getting Ditko to come down out of the attic for anything short of the second coming of Ayn Rand but well, you know.

Ring announcer in the first, usher in the second, I forget everything about the third save the hilarious "Peter Parker is a dick now" montage.

I guess some kind of award is due for a man that talentless to have become this famous

That was the one where he was a security guard with Lou Ferrigno.

Also the one from Trial of the Incredible Hulk.

not to mention the ones from the 70's Spiderman live action show.
