1) In the final fight, there's a scene where Spidey swings across the screen in slow-mo, with a giant USA flag in the background, which was cheesy beyond recognition. The whole cinema went " :ick: Was that really necessary ?"
....but SM3 has Venom, and thats the ONLY reason i'm going to see it. :nod:
No, but we were spoiled by the first Spiderman movie, which was arguably the best of the recent comic-to-movie adaptions.

Batman Begins should really be given extra credit for breathing new life into the Batman series, an exceptionally impressive feat after how brutally Batman & Robin sodomised the franchise.Indeed

After the first Spiderman movie turned Spiderman into a whiny little ***** with a big nose and googley eyes, I refused to watch any others.He wasn't like that in the second movie.
It was as though they had fired and hired multiple teams of writers throughout the script-writing process and none of them had read what the ones before them had written.
What was the story even about? Spider-Man's good, he's evil, he's good again... Harry is evil, he's good, he's evil, he's good again.... Guy from Wings is good, he's evil, he falls into a completely random inexplicable Laser-KitchenAid of sand, dies, comes back, dies, comes back, and now he's good again... Mary Jane loves Peter, doesn't love Peter, loves Harry, makes an omelette, doesn't love Harry, loves Peter, but might still love Harry?... Guy from Wings didn't kill Uncle Ben, did kill Uncle Ben, didn't kill Uncle Ben, didn't mean to kill Uncle Ben... Spider-Man didn't kill Harry's father, did kill Harry's father, did kill Harry, didn't kill Harry... etc.
And what's with that old butler randomly being like, "Oh hey, I forgot to tell you, Spider-Man didn't kill your father." Where was this oldster with his fell-from-the-sky plot points TWO MOVIES AGO?!
And let's all give a slow-clap for old Auntie Up-All-Night and her inspiringly cliche speech that convinces Peter to give up the black: "I believe in you. You're a good person. I know you'll make it right."
And I have some questions about the big climax, such as, why didn't anybody just spray a fire hose on the sand beast? Take him out at the knees! And how come nobody noticed this sinister plot a little sooner, such as when they were hoisting a taxi and a dump truck to the top of a skyscraper?
The long sequence of evil-Peter strutting down the sidewalk and flash-dancing around the jazz club is what really put it over the edge though. They should have just topped it off with a Ron Burgundy jazz flute solo. That way at least people would know that this was supposed to just be a dumb comedy.
Spider-Man 3 is the new Batman and Robin.

TMNT kicked ass though.
Are you an eight year old boy?That would explain a lot...
Are you an eight year old boy? I saw it with a few friends, and I thought it was terrible through and through.
Even Batman's costume today is very very different from what it used to be in the sixties. Seriously, red underpants on top of blue skintight gym suit?
What? Superman Returns was decent enough flick. Definitely much better than Daredevil, Catwoman, Fantastic Four, Batman & Robin (or any Batman movie not starring Michael Keaton until Batman Returns for that matter) but still not as good as Spiderman 1&2 or Batman Returns. I haven't seen Spiderman 3 yet so can't say much about it.
Superman's costume looks ridiculous on this age and day though. They really need to do something about it. Even Batman's costume today is very very different from what it used to be in the sixties. Seriously, red underpants on top of blue skintight gym suit?
