I didn't post it in my impressions, I guess there were too many things  that I didn't like about the movie, but as you bring it up I remembered when Flash was going to first fight with Peter thinking Oooo Flash is going to get it, because I assumed he already had his powers and I didn't know why I did that at the time though. That there what you just pointed out was the reason why ,although I knew it was a reboot in my mind I just automatically put Peter being so cool with him having his powers already.


I hated the High school atmosphere. Just producers milking the Twilight and teen wolf crowd some more. Flash was nice? Come on!


Here comes d21lewis again.

Actually, Flash isn't a bad guy.  In the comics, he had problems with Peter Parker but he idolized Spider-Man.  The crazy thing was that his biggest problem with Peter Parker was that Peter always bad mouthed Spidey (to keep his identity a secret) and it would piss Flash off.  Flash even dressed like Spider-Man to teach Peter a lesson!  You can imagine how well that worked.  Anyway (I'm probably ruining some movie later on down the line but....what the hell.) Flash wound up becoming friends with Peter Parker.  After High School, Flash joined the army and lost his legs in combat.  His inspiration was that he was being a hero like Spider-Man.  He later becomes Venom because the symbiote can give him his legs back.  See.  Flash is like an ogre.  He has layers.
