Willravel, I feel you on Spider-Man and Batman. Although, my disdain for both movies isn't as great as yours because I'm not as well versed in either comics as you are, I still feel ya.
I'm disappointed in Spider-Man at first, too. But after seeing it again and again, it grew on me. Yes, I was particularly peeved when they completely changed Peter Parker's history. The fact that MJ was his first love boils my blood. Then I saw the action and got hooked. It's exactly like how I imagined it to be--and more.
As for Batman Begins. I thought he wasn't "dark" enough in the movie. Yeah, they got the part about him being a billionaire playboy right, but when he becomes Batman, I don't sense this intimidating bad ass. I'm want to give them the benefit of the doubt that they'll develop his terrifying persona in the 2nd movie since it's the first movie and perhaps he's still new at being Batman. I also want to see more of his detective work and genius being displayed. And the Batmobile, OMFG!! Please change it!!
Remake Superman Returns, 'nuff said. I don't mind boring, expressionless Brandon Routhe as Superman. I don't care for Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane. I just want to see Lex Luthor portrayed correctly: as an evil genius who's a billionaire and not a thug. He has so much potential and they ruined it! Mind you, I didn't watch the other Superman movies so I don't know how Lex is portrayed in there.
