Dead Wrong About SpiderMan3 (minimal spoilers, open at your own risk)

I know this may sound hipocritical because of my earlier posts but I saw SpiderMan3 on someone's personal recommendation that I'd like it, and they were right. They switched it up just enough so it didn't play old themes of previous movies too much, and when it did they were different interpretations.
I think it really rings true that SpiderMan is human and we're all human, villains and heros, and we all have two sides. It's how we choose to handle those sides that make us who we are. Not who we were born to be. Maybe too deep into analyzing it, but I think it was a smart, cool-looking flick. My expectations were real low, so maybe that's the key to a successsful movie experience nowadays, but I think it was worth my 7 dollars.
I thought the SandMan sequences were bad ass too.

yeah, sandman being created was insane. That scene had me in awe. I got kind of turned off with spider man turning emo after he put the black suit on. I also thought they tried to over due some of the humor that came with the black suite. It was an entertaining action movie. I give it a C+

yah forman ruined the movie when he tried to put the 70's show human into his lines....he's an ass and is all washed up.
sandman was actually a downfall to this movie, i really did not like the fight scenes that he was in....but i thought the charactor that played him was PERFECT. I loved the kitchen scene and how ripped he looked.
but i feel they totally screwed the movie up. They should not have had both venom and sandman in the same movie for one. For two, venom was a total joke it all needed MORE DEPTH like the first spider man.....

Topher Grace was annoying but I thought Venom looked pretty bad ass. Just a quick nod to the cool comic book character and then moving on. I liked the plot. It all made sense to me, maybe cause I'm experiencing similar things. Not being ready to care for someone more than you care for yourself. I got the right girl picked out, but the timing is bullshit.
I just overall liked it. I guess analyzing such an assanine premise for a movie is kinda tough. It was well made and kept my attention. I give it a B+

they definatly should have picked someone else to play Venom, when ou think of eddie brock you think of you know, big guy, manly man. Not the dork from the 70's show.
Also venom himself should have been bigger too.
The fruity ass strut spiderman did had no business in the movie
but on overall I liked the movie. I think spiderman 2 was better done though

well this movie was focused on the 'audience' more- all the cheering, ooing-aahing as well as the newsreporters. The drama scenes were way too long. Everyone in their seats wanted to leave so bad. Until then, it was over-<APPLAUSE>

i seriously thought that the guy that did sand man should have been venom. sure he wasn't as quick or flexable looking but, he was RIPPED like venom should have been.

Such a silly movie I thought. The action scenes were pretty reasonable but all the dialog was so bad. Also the spiderman actor is horrible at acting. The part where he breaks up with Mary Jane was so funny to my friends and I, because of how atrocious the acting is. Also the whole series of scenes where hes wearing the venom suit, going to the jazz bar etc.. was almost unbearable to watch

What annoyed me was how much the deviated from the venom saga of the comics...
I thought it was amusing how Peter Parker turnt all bad ass.. specially cause hes such a geek
Sandman should definitely of not been involved. However; because this film is one of the highest grossing films ever on the opening weekend.. they're going to make more goddamn sequels.
I would love to see an original movie for once. I'm fucking fedup of sequels and remakes.

I dont see how anyone could have liked this movie at all. For one, they kill venom at the end. Yep, I spoiled it for whoever hasnt seen it. Now you can save your money for a decent looking movie like 28 weeks later. Another thing is how venom died didnt make sense. The (excuse my spelling) symbiot came to earth on a meteor that entered the earths atmosphere at an extremely high temp, which then hit the ground and exploded yet a silly pumpkinish bomb destroys it? Doesnt make sense to me. I think they should stick to the comics if they want a plot that makes a little more sense. Also, the hour of Peter Parker strutting his stuff with the black suit on is ridiculous. They didnt need any of that in the movie. I think the only good actors cast in the movie were Topher Grace (maybe not as Eddie Brock, but still a great actor) and the guy that played Sandman. Im interested in how they will recover from this shitty movie. They are still signed with Marvel to do 2 more films. Luckily the speculation is that Toby McGuire will not continue on as Spidey.

Sorry, the mere fact that you called Topher Grace a great actor completely discredits the rest of your post. How they will recover ? 148 million in the first weekend, I don't think they're worried about recovery. I think they're pretty happy with the results thus far.
I stick by my assessment. The plot didn't make sense at points, but it's a god damn comic book movie. I didn't expect it to going into it. Isn't that the point of creating a movie set in a comic book world? I like the theme of forgiveness too. Kids need to realize that shit, because adults sure as fuck aren't nowadays.

Have you seen Topher Grace in anything other than Spider Man 3 and That 70's Show? He is a pretty good actor in my book. Check out some of his other stuff.

I saw that movie with him and Scarlett Johanson and Dennis Quaid and I thought he was mediocre at best. That's really it. I find him to be annoying and wormy. I guess that's his schtick. I personally didn't like That 70's Show, so that may have something to do with it.
