Even Andrew Garfield Admits This Movie Was Awful
GARFIELD Suggests Studio Cuts Led to AMAZING 2 Woes (by Chris Arrant, Newsarama Contributor)
Didn’t like Amazing Spider-Man 2? Actor Andrew Garfield feels you, bro.
Garfield, who starred as the titular character in this summer’s disappointing tentpole, spoke out about studio interference, which he suggests compromised the non-so-well-received sequel.
In an aside during a Daily Beast interview promoting his upcoming film 99 Homes, the young actor pointed out multiple factors that might have contributed to the dour response to the film compared to previous outings.
Garfield says...
"I think what happened was, through the pre-production, production, and post-production, when you have something that works as a whole, and then you start removing portions of it—because there was even more of it than was in the final cut, and everything was related. Once you start removing things and saying, ‘No, that doesn’t work,’ then the thread is broken"
“We can’t go, ‘Oh God, we *beep* up because all these people are saying all these things. It’s s**t."
The movie was brain damaged from the script stage. Anyone saying otherwise is just making excuses. Even Garfield knows it's a bad final effort. You don't come forth and make excuses unless you know how bad it turned out.
