Ok, I braved the night and went to the midniter yesterday (today). To tell you the truth, it was just ok. I liked it, but not loved it like the other two. It was just, different. Here is my list that I also posted on HCR. Curious to see what you guys thought.
What Worked:
1. Bruce Campbell - This guy was so funny, as he always is. "I AM French, you know." Love it.
2. Topher Grace as both characters - He stole the movie, and I wanted more face time. "Gee Parker, My Spidey Sense is tingling!"
3. Fight scenes - Needed more, and when they were happening, they were great. Love when Peter tosses the bomb at harry's face. Totally a b**** slap moment.
What didnt work:
1. Music - what were they thinking?!?
2. Story holes - marriage proposal, Marko's daughter, the Stacy's,
Doc Connors, all got left behind.
3. Mary Jane - She just didnt have it, everything was always depressed and sad MJ. I missed the spunk of the first two.
4. Amount of time that peter spent in the Black suit as Spidey. For once I think we needed a montage of Bad Guy donkey punching rather than 10 minutes of pete dancing like a dork.

LMAO At number 4...at some moments I was thinking...
"Wait....what?" like the dancing scenes/
It was indeed awesome...I think prob was my fav, but not QUITE as good as I thought it would be. Mary Jane was a fucking bitch whore.

Mary Jane was a fucking bitch whore. Especially compared to the literally delectable Gwen Stacy   . |

IMO fight scenes were UNCOMPARABLE to any other Superhero film EVER.

Did anyone else almost get sick from the constant shaking of the camera? I know it was used to represent the fast paced action, but it seemed very amateurish comparitively to other movies. They even had a cops moment when they first try and apprehend the Sandman in the Truck. "He's in there, He's in there!!" Camera looked like it was done on a mini cam corder. I think the script had a ton of failings too, if I was Stan I would be Pissed off.
Don't get me wrong, I liked it for the most part, but also disappointed in what could have been a great movie. (STOP KILLING OFF THE DAMNED VILLAINS!! THEY ARE COMING BACK!)

My fave superhero film I think.
it just appealed to me. Of course, if they actually adressed where the symbiote came from (could have been done easily- like say a comet was pasing over the earth or something, and a fragment fell off), and whatever happened to Marko's daughter.
I wish Venom had been a bit more imposing.

It was good. But 1 and 2 far surpassed it. Luckily it still made FF and Ghost R. look like the crap that they are.
I think that the fight scenes were great. I didnt care that it wasnt comic accurate - IT SHOULDNT BE AFTER THE FIRST TWO! - and I agree that Spidey's Black Suit = Stanley Ipkiss' Mask, plus it was much better the second time.
I just couldnt get past some of the GLARING holes in the story. Either way, they just tried too hard to pack it all in. If Raimi and the cast had two more movies on their deals, this one would have been the best ever.

I actually feel that the first Spider-Man is a little shoddy now.

I didn't really notice the shaky camera in this one, but during Mission Impossible III, I literally got sick from that god-damn shaky camera! |

Copy-pasted from that other place.
This seems to be the offical Spidey 3 thread, so I'll post here.
Just saw it last night, and I was going to post a nice big traditional FiS essay on it, but it really doesn't deserve it. I give it a 7.5 out of 10. So, in summary:
THE GOOD
1) Harry and Peter's jerk wars. You kill my father, I steal your girlfriend. Way to set your sights high, guys!
2) The action. Definitely some of the best action scenes in any superhero movie.
3) J.J. was awesome as ever.
4) BRUCE THE MAN-GOD, awesome as ever.
5) Despite not really being in the movie much, Sandman was groovy.
6) What little they did with Brock/Venom was really fun to watch.
THE BAD
1) Not enough Venom, and what was there felt incredibly tacked-on.
2) Not enough Spider-Man.
3) Too many scenes with people standing around talking about their feelings.
4) AUNT MAY.
5) Emo/Jazz Peter dancing.
6) The ending, which I will paraphrase here:
Sandman: Sorry I tried to kill you, and accidentally killed your uncle.
Spidey: That's okay. I punched my girlfriend in the face after I did a dance.
Sandman: That's pretty stupid.
Spidey: Yeah.
Sandman: Well, I've got to go. I've got more banks to rob.
Spidey: LOL, see you tomorrow.

I actually feel that the first Spider-Man is a little shoddy now. God, no. Spidey 3 wasn't the abortion that some folks are making it out to be, but it's no where near the level of 1 or 2. And I'm not even a fan of 2. |
