Spidey 3 Part 2

Ok, so I promised film guru that I would finish my spidey critique, so since I can't sleep, I'll finish it off.

Point... whatever. I forget and can't be bother checking.
Eddie brock a sweet guy? Where'd he get that from? Eddie's an egotistical self-righteous desperate bastard who has no conception of what he's getting into. Like the scene where he sells the editor his first pic. He gets about half the pay of what peter would have got through peter's usual clever haggling. Basically, brock's desperate and will use whatever charm he has to make it.

Peter comes along and shows him for a hack. Guy looses everything - job, respect, confidence. Why wouldn't he ask God to kill Peter Parker?

Now, on to a topic FG mentioned. Spiderman 2 was the "best comic book hero movie to date". WHAT THE HELL??!? Talk about bad storylines and convenient occurences. Like I commented on FG's blog, spidey 2 was right up there with the crap superman movie. I will conceed that it flowed better than the 3rd movie, but that's where the comparisons end. The storyline was too stretched out, too much emphasis was put on peter's relationship with mj, and the premise for DocOc was one of the most painful villian stories I have ever lived through. Seriously, to borrow one of FG's phrases "there was so much more that could have been done with it". It's the usual "good guy turns bad but is still good on the inside" rubbish that plagues Schwartznegger in that Batman movie.

So, back to spidey 3. If you sit back and watch it like a lot of normal people and simply enjoy the jokes and action scenes it's a decent movie. If you over analyse and try to rewrite it as you go, you need a kick in the head.

Ok... that was probably a bit harsh, but you get the point. So, in summary - spidey 3 better than 2. 3 is far from perfect, but enjoyable.
