Man, I have never felt a single actual emotion during a Raimi movie. I like the Spidey movies a lot but they’re straight comedies for me and I actively dislike Darkman, hate Drag me to Hell and honestly even the Evil Dead sequels get tiresome for me pretty quick.
He’s sort of the embodiment of a pure style over substance director, IMO. Generally in a bad way.
I get that. His movies never worry too much about emotional depth (well his Spider-Man movies I would fight for - the scene with Uncle Ben in 2 is very powerful to me).
Maybe it's just Gunn's style in general that leaves me cold. I'm rooting for Superman: Legacy, but I definitely think there are better candidates for the director job.
