Read the thread, and realised I wanted to watch a couple of the films mentioned again. So saw Flight 93 and Crash, both great.
Though tbh with Flight 93, I've seen so many 9/11 films and documentaries that it isn't that special seeing a new one or rewatching one. Feels very predictable.
Does this one delve more deeper into the Spiderman/Peter Parker psyche as well as the The Lizard's, like Christopher Nolan did with Batman and the Joker and everything in the Dark Knight and The Batman Begins? Or is it the usual 'superhero bashes the supervillains and saves the state/country/world/universe' kind of movie? The last three Spiderman movies were like that, with the possible exception of Spiderman 3 which went beyond that solely due to Venom (when in a symbiotic relationship with Peter Parker, and the drastic changes it brought in him etc). I haven't watched The Avengers, but reviews from friends indicate it was also like that.
Amazing Spiderman is more about developing the story. The first half just gives emphasis on Peter Parker Parents History (which you won't find in previous movies). The second half is the action. You'll find less action in this movie though because it was the first part of the reboot and it just focus on backward story. It's isn't the exactly same as Spiderman 1. You'll notice few different things brought to this story but you should give it a try. I won't rate this movie 'great' as compared to Dark Knight but it's better than those made by Raimi.
About Avengers, you shouldn't expect a story from these kind of movie which is about group of Heros saving the earth. No one went for Avengers for it's story.
