orangerfulSo...we just finished watching 'Spiderman 3'
Okay, I've never 100% liked a Spiderman movie. I enjoyed the second one more than the first. This one...well, even though the DVD sleeve said 2 hours, it felt like 3.
Mary Jane isn't that annoying in the comics, is she? I mean, she just can't be! I despise MJ in the movies. Its a combination of writing and acting.
Also, did anyone else think that Bryce Dallas Howard with blond hair makes her look a heck of a lot like Katee Sackhoff? Perhaps that's why I was crushing on her the whole movie.
Ursula is a cutie pie too. Seriously, why would Peter waste time on MJ with those two existing! *sigh* MJ needs to be recast and suddenly gain some brains and self esteem.
WTF was with the dancing? I was just...disturbed!
TOO MANY CHARACTERS! Or should I say, too many random story bits floating around. As![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jimithingy pointed out to me, Batman Begins had a couple villians and managed to pull it off. But I think BB was far more balanced. Spiderman had too many things going on. Peter and MJ, MJ's issues, crazy!Harry, amnesia!Harry, crazyoutofamnesia!Harry, Eddie Brock, Blacksuit Spidey, Venom, Sandman, OMG-sandman-killed-my-uncle, Gwen it hot,...
The editor stole the movie again. Bruce Campbell amused the heck out of me with his silly French accent.
I cannot deny that the action scenes were fun, but there was too much time between and enough stories floating around to fill at least one other movie. In fact, I thought the whole idea was to save the Venom story for the next movie...is there not going to be a next movie? Did they feel obligated to cram that all into this one?
So, Spidey and I are just not meant to be. Give me Batman or Superman any day.
