on the subject of reboots and remakes...
I kinda like the trend. The problem with making endless sequels is, you are constantly starting with a crippled premise. I mean with the current Spidey franchaise, the coolest bad guys have been exhausted, we already know his relationships with the girls, its like, whats next and who cares? Lets get a new vision of the thing.
now Xmen is totally different, they have so many characters they can develop so its not like they are boxed in as they are wtih Spiderman.
