1997 was not a good year for comic book movies. It gave us the trifecta of terrible: Steel, Spawn, and Batman and Robin. It's amazing the genre recovered at all. HEY!!! I liked Spawn,,,I was 10 years old when I first saw it but I liked it, my uncle on the other hand was in his 30's and he was adamant it was the greatest film he ever saw, hence why he showed it to his 11 year old nephews and his 8 year old daughter when we were meant to be going to see Mulan for her birthday  Ahh. Don't feel bad Dazz. After re-watching the 'Spawn' movie I don't think it is as bad as some other comic book movies we have had over the years but it was just disappointing much like 'Hulk' and 'Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice' but even more so 'cause unlike Spawn we had popular adaptions of Batman, Superman and The Incredible Hulk on screen before and we never had Spawn and Spawn was one of the most popular comic book series of the 90s and a lot of fans were looking forward to it. I remember a lot of my friends were saying it was going to be the most violent and bloodiest superhero ever made and blow the censors through the roofs and then it came out and it was nowhere near as violent and dark as everybody thought it was going to be. It wasn't as bad as the 'Faust: Love of the Damned' movie which should have been the movie that blew the censors through the roof. The 'Faust' comic books took violence to another level and they had tons of blood, guts, gore, sex and nudity in them and there were people who couldn't read them 'cause they made them vomit and then the movie came out and it wasn't even as violent or graphic as 'Hellraiser' but back to my point, the 'Spawn' movie was very watered down and should have been more violent. People wanted blood and guts and got something that wasn't any darker than the 'Batman' movies.
