Matinees, baby.

Also, it's only $7 for me at night thanks to my student status. Just another reason to go to college.

Sadly, it's $13.50 when I'm in Canada.

I adored this movie. My only bitch is that Venom was an afterthought. Sandman was fantastic, and while I will admit I loved seeing the arrogance of symbiote infested emo Parker, I would willingly have sacrificed that for more Venom time. I think Topher Grace nailed Eddie Brock perfectly. Can't wait to see if they do something else with the symbiote.

Worst of all, and no one has noted this: In the flag scene, Spider-man (heroic blue and red costume) webs his way past an American flag on the way to fight a man made of sand (an obvious allegory for...something about the middle east) and an evil alien made of sentient black oil. Doesn't that just seem wrong to anyone else?

Although the movie did lack in bits, overall I found it really enjoyable...although part of that was the fact that I was with a fairly big group of friends and that during the Emo Parker scenes, along with certain other scenes the whole cinema just cracked up laughing.

Also Evil Parker was well worth the price of admission. Words cannot describre how funny that was.

Going to black text most of this to avoid flamming:

Wasn't as good as 2, but it's a very hard act to follow, IF (please!) they decide to end it now, I'd be happy, but you know Sony and the money train will want more from this, I hope that Venom isn't dead if that is the case as he deserved loads more time, have to admit though, for the small amount of time he was on the screen, he was done very well.

Bruce Campbell is god

Really liked how the Harry storyline played out

Only real issue was the length of the film, think they tried to cram too much into it, personally I think they could of just left out sandman all together given Venom

Oh and I love how evil Peter is Emo, lets face it, Emo is the root to all evil anyway

I really hope they have the symbiote "save" brock if they do a future movie. He was probably the best villain that they have made. Grace nailed that part.

I think everyone is overreacting on the venom thing.

I mean its pretty obvious that they are intending to bring him back. Otherwise, why would they have eddie jump back into the symbiote, and leave no body behind after the explosion. I think this was just an introduction to the villain, and he will be fleshed out a lot more in the next film.

That said, I was correct in assuming that their would be a little too much going on at once, but it was nowhere near as bad in that regard as x-men 3. Still enjoyed it a great deal.

All the Spider-Man movies just seemed kinda, "meh..." to me. I was, however, thoroughly surprised to see that my local newspaper's movie critic only gave it a 5/10, because according to the headline "Spider-Man 3 has 3 too many villains" or something like that...

The big surprise in the FoxNews.com report is word that one character who appears to die in Spidey 3 might return for Spidey 4. "It turns out I may not be completely dead," the unnamed actor who plays the unspecified character revealed.

I'll quote this because my question to you is the same question to the idiots who are complaining about the movie...

Did you WATCH the first two?

Spider-Man's Spider-Sense is no longer ESP, it's just enhanced senses. And getting nailed by a guy moving at those speeds is probably gonna happen.

Meanwhile, I saw an enjoyable movie. People are bitching about the poor plot. Come on, the plot was as solid as the first two. Granted, there's 80s porn with better plots, but that was in the first two movies, and everyone LOVED them.

This is nothing different. If you went in expecting a plot that was more than thinly spread to web the movie's action scenes together, you didn't see the first two, or you're an idiot. For those too stupid to get it, "you" is a pronoun which can refer to a specific person, but also as a general statement (This way, Reavant, you don't piss and moan like Jeritron).

And the ending was great, barring the fact that Venom shouldn't have been there in the first place. But once you get over that, assuming you are enough of a wanker to get hung up on it, the fight scene is awesome.

Beautiful film, weak plot, great action, best of the three.

And on a non-ranting note: I liked the way they ended the movie. It means there may be more, but if there aren't, we aren't left completely hanging.

Oh, and Venom: We see his bones lit up, but I don't think we see them disintegrate. Like any bright flash, it will cast shadows, and with enough light, it'll show your bones instead of your skin. Maybe he's dead. Don't know. Doubt it. Harry survived a pumpkin bomb, and while he may have been superhuman, the suit HAD enveloped Brock. Brock might be more hurt, but remember, Harry only had a few burns on his face. Nasty, but clearly not severe.

My primary gripe is that they spend huge sums on a cast, and don't bother to do anything with them. The deepest scene in the movie is probably the final one between Parker and Marko. However, this is a standing gripe. I don't know why, all of a sudden, people are bitching about something that was prevalent in the first two.

That's like complaining that Return of the King had too many landscape shots, or complaining about the space battles in Return of the Jedi. It's like getting to Revenge of the Sith and complaining that the dialogue was bad after raving about the first two.

It's just weird. Why now?

Yeh there was quite a bit of laughter at some seems in the theater where I was too. And in the scene I think you're talking about when (highlight)He's standing behind Harry on the balcony or whatever, there was some laughter in the theater, and then I couldn't stop myself from saying out loud "Jared Leto is in this movie?" Which drew some more laughter out of the people around me.. And another scene that I thought I was REALLY bad when Peter and Mary Jane are standing on the bridge and Harry was forcing her to break it off with him, they're acting was completely pathetic I thought, particularly Toby Mac. A lot of people laughed during this part too.

I was entertained for my 7 bucks. Nothing a critic would say could have kept me from the movie anyways.

Got back from this a short while ago.

Really hard to sit through. (Even at a 9:15 am. show, kids actually skipped saturday morning cartoons and made it. Quiet crowd about 15-20 people total.) Action was good, plot line was so so.

Lloyd (Tom Haden Church to Wings fans) was freakin' fantastic. I can watch him anytime and not be dissapointed. However I think Arnold Vosloo can do a better sandwall anyday.

The chick who played Gwen Stacy would have been a perfect Felica Hardy. I'm surprised they didn't go that route.

I don't get why most of you liked evil Peter Parker. I had to turn away cause it looked so ridiculous. spoilers in black: The John Travolta strut, the scene at the night club, the chick feeding him cookies. I cringed when I saw that. Bad ass Parker during his fights with Sandman and Harry were great.

I love J.K. Simmons. Shrink, cop, news editor, cigarette big wig. He just rules.

I admit Topher Grace did do the Eddie Brock role great. However, I wished he were a bit bigger like the cartoon. Venom on the other hand, I wish they took a little more time on the voice. And maybe add some more muscle.

Damn fine job by James Franco. I give credit to whoever said it, but this was his movie. I enjoyed him very much.

250+ million dollar budget and they can put Chubby Checker's "The Twist", but totally neglect Metallica's "Enter Sandman". God damn, I was hoping I would hear that.

I know it kinda leaves the door open, but with Maguire and Dunst not doing another one. This will probably be it.

Clockshot, the reason people loved it was the same reason people like Tarantino. It was so horrible it was deemed good.

I mean, I was laughing my ass off. Not because it was good funny, but because Raimi should be shot for having done that.

On an unrelated note, when MJ asks "Who are you?" In that really tense moment, I cracked up the theater by saying (Louder than I had intended), "I'm Batman."

Spider-Man's Spider-Sense is no longer ESP, it's just enhanced senses. And getting nailed by a guy moving at those speeds is probably gonna happen.
yea i saw em and my question was the same there. In the first two he was jumping out of the way of things before they were near him unless he was being bombarded. Like when he grabed MJ and dodged the car in the cafe in 2. Howewver his enimies could completely sneak up on him all the time. Im not really complaining about it, I just found it a little weird.

Saw the midnight showing of this Thursday and absolutely loved it. It was definately rushed, but still, I thought it was great. Brock/Venom was done very well, my only beef was how he spoke, didn't come off as Venom.

It was fairly cartoonish (Campbell, Emo-Peter's montage), but the movie was great. Hectic and chaotic, much like most of Spider-Man's life.

Definately will see this again though. Great stuff.

I agree. It was rushed. There was too much in one movie and little buildup.

But it was the best of the three.

Venom should also have been bigger and meaner.

Meaner maybe, but I thought Venom was nicely sized. The bulking, massive Venom would have been... Over-done. The voice was a wee bit too high/soft for Venom IMO, but I still think everyone's favorite symbiote was done pretty well.

They were inconsistent with his voice.

Also, I thought it was funny that I asked if they Goa'ulded the voice, and the symbiote sounds like a Goa'uld symbiote.

I do think he should have been bigger though. And the eyes looked like they were painted on. Venom should have been like Lesnar, even if Grace wasn't.

just got back from watching it. FUCKIN ROCKED. Although i wish Venom was in it more (but then again, i would because Venoms my all time fav). All in all, great movie and great way to end it if it ends.

I do like how Topher played Venom though, much more light hearted and joking than he is in the comics. Kinda like they crossed Venom (black symbiote, Eddie Brock) with Carnage (skinnier, more of a joker)

Seriously mate, that's not a just streach that's a Superman tall buildings in a single bound leap.

But no doubt a bunch of fuck wits will put up an online petition accusing Spiderman 3 of being anti Arab and a tool of the Bush administration, just as they did with 300.
