I've rented some episodes of the spiderman cartoon in preparation for this movie

5/2/2007 6:36:40 PM

^ Haha I hear that.

5/2/2007 6:49:02 PM

if you liked the first two spidermans you'll love this one...

better action sequences, cooler villians (none of that shiny plastic look), funnier parts too

5/2/2007 6:53:40 PM

what if you loved the 2nd one but thought the 1st was just ok?

5/2/2007 7:05:18 PM

^ yeah, I'm definitely in that boat. I'm a huge Marvel/ Spiderman fan, but I was really really let down with the first one. The Green Goblin has always been my favorite storyline/ villain, and I hated the way he was handled (visually and story-wise) in the movie. I really loved the second Spiderman movie though.

5/2/2007 7:35:29 PM

All I know is that I can't come back to this thread until after I've seen it this Friday. I've potentially already read too much with someone in this thread saying that the first 30 minutes alone are pure awesome.

Midnight showing tomorrow, 7:30 and 10:10 showing for Friday, and 7:10pm showing for Saturday.
I better go ahead and get a ticket for saturday.

5/2/2007 9:46:01 PM

Does anyone know when do they sell tickets? I mean the regular movie theater.

5/2/2007 10:39:46 PM

^now.

5/2/2007 10:55:37 PM

The second movie was a "better" movie than the first, but it wasn't really the movie that I wanted to see.

There is something really nifty about it, though. If you watch the second movie very carefully, you will notice that Spider-Man has a very brief cameo in between Peter Parker having a crappy life. Make sure you don't blink or you might miss it.

i liked the second one a lot more than the first as well. I always thought the first one was kinda cheesy.

But the third I liked even more. Like I said, I only got to see the first 90 minutes (it's like 135 minutes long)

I

2nd>1st

to me it's because he was still new to his powers in the first one and still getting used to it all...usually the hardcore backstory/heros get their powers movies aren't that great (which is why I'm hoping fantastic 4: rise of silver surfer will be better than the first)

5/3/2007 8:14:51 AM

I'm getting sick of the grandma already. that's what I didn't like about the second one. there was too much of the grandma.
and I think the 3rd one will have even more of her life lessons. but the 3rd one is still gonna be friggin sweet.

5/3/2007 8:28:34 AM

you mean Aunt May ?

5/3/2007 8:35:44 AM

I got tix for the midnight showing at Crossroads tonight. I was going to do it tomorrow night but I just can't wait.
For the midnight showings, are the concessions open?

5/3/2007 10:27:21 AM

2nd > 1st > 3rd
fosh

5/3/2007 11:00:26 AM

5/3/2007 11:16:59 AM

yeah I totally meant the aunt.

5/3/2007 1:20:19 PM

5/3/2007 1:22:02 PM

i drew the spiderman logo on the inside of one of the free UT shirts, does that count?

5/3/2007 9:32:50 PM

so remember when i said, i watched the first 90 minutes of it and it was awesome....
i guess i left at just the right time, because the last hour of it basically sucked.

"funny" scenes were lame, the fights at the end weren't even as good as in the beginning of the film, and to top it off there are so many cliche scenes I started to feel sick.

This movie had so much potential. Flint Marko turning into the sandman was awesome. Him adjusting to his new "talent" was really well done. The scene in wich spiderman removes the venom alien was good, but could have been better.

They could have just titled this film Emo-man. Sam Raimi dropped the ball with the last half of this film. What sucks is for the last week I've been anticipating the rest of this film.

Everyone that I watched it with laughed at how stupid the ending got. What about you guys?

5/4/2007 1:30:20 AM

OVERRATED

5/4/2007 2:39:51 AM

overall it was good, but worst of the 3...kind of disappointed here

5/4/2007 2:46:14 AM

It had a little too much going on. 2 is still the best.

5/4/2007 2:50:40 AM

on a better note......harry potter looks fucking awesome

5/4/2007 2:51:40 AM

I agree

2>1>3

5/4/2007 2:51:57 AM

I'm calling it right now...(not sure if anyone said this yet)...Dr. Connor's (the dude who looked at the symbiote, and remember, he still has that piece of it) will the the lizard in the next spiderman ...and btw...sony has lined up at lesat 6 total spider mans

[Edited on May 4, 2007 at 3:16 AM. Reason : asdfasdf]

5/4/2007 3:15:50 AM

the actors said they would do more, but only had planned to do 3 and aren't currently planning on more

unless you have proof that Sony has 6 lined up

EDIT: the Lizard was kind of a minor villain and it seems you're implying the symbiote causes his transformation which is just wrong

"At the Los Angeles press junket today, Spider-Man 3 director Sam Raimi confirmed that Sony Pictures is doing a 4th, 5th and 6th installment of the popular franchise."

just because the symbiote might cause it and that it's wrong in the comics doesn't mean that they won't make that happen in the movies...it's a damn movie, it's probly gunna be changed somewhat..i dont know..somethign could happen to make him thje lizardl....just thought it was interesting

5/4/2007 3:21:11 AM

if anyting it COULD set up carnage or another Venom


and okay, Sony says they wanna do more...but currently nobody is signed on

5/4/2007 3:22:24 AM

i mean they had 3 year contracts, so it's not like they are finished..i'm sure they will be in it..but who knows...i agree that if the symbiote is in it it'll be carnage or venom...but i just think the dr. connors guy is significant for the future of the films
