**SPOILER**

When he was fighting the guys in the jazz club and he swung around and bitch slapped M.J. . . . I literally gasped! And the look that he gave that started out just pure hatred for her and ended with the look of "Oh my God, what did I do?" It was just perfection and BRAVO to Tobey.

That moment was the first time my jaw ever dropped seeing a film. Only took me like 19 years, but it happened and then it happened a 2nd time later! At the climax of the Venom-Harry encounter...

I really want to get back there and see it again as well. I just was so thoroughly entertained. It was nice to see a movie that wasn't pure drama, but had some fine acting and great action. Very different than last weeks Last King of Scotland.

I was so disappointed in this movie. I was looking forward to a really good one. Perhaps I set my expectations too high, but doing that wasn't unreasonable since the first 2 movies were awesome.

Tobey got kinda fat.

"Spider-Man 3" was the best musical comedy I've seen in a long time. It had it all, Kirsten Dunst "singing", Tobey Maguire enacting scenes from "Chicago" and "Saturday Night Fever", and an evil alien villain who is conquered through the power of music. If "Hairspray" has one iota of "Spider-Man 3"'s campy musical fun, it will be in great shape.

I actually enjoyed it, even though there was a lot of camp in it.



And the opening scene was an insult to the musical theatre.

I just have no urge to see this. I may rent it when it finally comes out, but to pay money and sit in a theater with screaming kids, nope

Haha. I went yesterday at the first showing while school was still in session and majority of people were at work. I think there was only 10 people, besides myself, and everyone (including one kid) was really quiet. I am glad they were, or I would have been arrested for jamming popcorn in their eye sockets re: The SPIDER-MAN 3 Movie Thread (Possible Spoilers Within)

Again, I don't understand how everyone is complaining that it is TOO campy. The first two movies were VERY campy, that is what made this series fun and interesting. BATMAN BEGINS and SUPERMAN RETURNS take themselves too seriously (not that it is a bad thing)and X-Men is very political in it's underlying tones to have any camp . . . Spider-Man, even in the comics, has a camp factor to it.

I didn't see this as any more campy than the second one. And can I say that I am SO GLAD they didn't pull a lot of romance novel language crap that was all throughout the second one?!?

Elphaba--Ooo, I would have been so mad. At DREAMGIRLS, during the song "Dreamgirls" a guy down the row from me pulled out his cell phone and talked in a normal volumed voice for a couple of minutes. When he hung up, he started singing the song out loud as well. He stopped because everyone, and I MEAN everyone, was turned around looking at him like they were going to make him bleed. re: The SPIDER-MAN 3 Movie Thread (Possible Spoilers Within)

I love going to the theaters because there is nothing like seeing a movie on a big screen, but I go less and less now because I don't want to deal with the people.

As far as paying too much to see it, for me that is the benefit of a college town. I pay $5 and that includes popcorn and a soda.

This makes me extremely happy. I had a talk with two of my best friends from home who saw it. They both weren't too impressed with it and all the people they went with hated it. At least by raking in the cash people can't say that it was a dud. I still hope this breaks records and has massive success because it is SPIDERMAN and a wonderful movie.

I loved it. I have been a comic book junkie since I was 5.

I loved the whole emo scene. It was great. Like some others have said, it wasn't the best of the trilogy, but it was good.

*****SPOILER******

The highlight for me? The cameo by Stan Lee. When I saw him, and not only seeing him, but seeing him speak, it made my heart happy. re: The SPIDER-MAN 3 Movie Thread (Possible Spoilers Within)

Payed 50 cents Australian and wanted my money back.
Walked out after the first 40 minutes, really who cared if MJ got sacked, if the sandman didnot get to see his kid.

I will never have those 40 minutes back!

When you went in, had you seen the previous two films? Were you looking only for 100% action and no character development, I'm just trying to understand walking out 40 minutes into a 2 and a half hour movie.

And the curiousity is getting the better of me. A lot of people in this thread said they didn't like it and it was horrible, but no one has really given an explanation why they thought it was bad (except for Peter going emo).

As for it being too campy - I think that scenes like Toby's dancing down the street doing the "I'm badass" walk, buying the cool new clothes, the dance sequence in the club, his interaction with the landlord's daughter - were more prevalent in this film than the previous two.

I liked the movie, though. I thought the two villains worked well together, even though some people thought it was "too much." I loved James Franco coming to the rescue. The only thing that bothered me with his whole accident was that they said at first that he didnt remember recent events that happened around the time of the accident. Then it seemed like he had forgotten almost his entire past like, since high school.

No, I liked it too. I think I liked SM3 better than the second one.
I was just saying that those scenes make it, in my opinion, a little "campier" than the first two Spiderman films, in response to this comment:

i think that it is TOO campy because it is being marketed as completely hardcore and serious... if you look at the trailer it looks so cool and bad ass, but when you watch the movie its a joke... i'm fine with the camp (though i think there was WAY too much of it for its own good) i just wish that it was marketed like that, and i wish that it actually made sense within the storyline... i don't believe that a symbiote that amplifies aggression would make a person want to wear black eyeliner and change his hair cut...

I honestly can't believe that people are hating the movie this much. I saw it Friday night and thought it was brilliant. It trails very closely behind the first as my favorite.

I will say that Kirsten Dunst should not sing anymore, and that the bar dance was annoying, but those parts were hilarious (especially the part on the pay phone with the cookies). I loved the Emo-Spidey.

I thought Topher Grace was fantastic. I was a little wary of him, but he played it well, especially when he turned into Venom. I didn't feel the hatred for Peter as much as I should have, as spiderdj said as well.

But I loved it, and the last fight scene was awesome, and I was really sad that Harry's pretty face got messed up.

I want to see this again ASAP.
