- What happened to Spiderman making dorky quips? They've been lacking in all three movies, and it's just sad.
- As well as his Spidey-sense.
- Alien symbiotes give you the ability to play jazz piano. Riiight.
- A ten minute scene in which evil!Peter buys a new suit? Lame.
- A ten minute scene in which evil!Peter dances with Gwen? Were the writers SURE there wasn't a better way to describe how eeeviiiillll! the symbiote is? I was pretty convinced when Peter lobbed a Pumpkin bomb at his ex-best friend.
- When Spiderman arrives at the final fight scene, he runs in front of a huge billowing flag. For some reason, too much patriotism makes me gag. Not sure why, maybe it's 'cause I got my fill of it in the first two movies.
- I suppose it's functional, but I really don't like how they rewrote Ben Parker's death and laid it at Sandman's feet. Let the poor guy rest in peace.
- Of course, since it WAS written that way, they missed a golden opportunity for Peter to tell Sandman the ol' "Great power, great responsibility" line after all the fighting was over.

I pretty much agree with Nay that there was lot of crowding in this movie. If the Venom had been delayed until the next movie (along with Carnage, oooh), surely there would have been less crack in this flick. Oh well. It's Spiderman, and overall I enjoyed the movie. Excellent CG effects: AAAAAA++++++++++++, as ebayers say.


Yesterday Renay and I went to see her mom and clear out her Dad's room. We ended up mowing part of her considerable lawn instead, and then it started raining like whoa before we could burn anything. Alas. And Jonathan's unit is going for three more months of training before being sent to Iraq, so...bleh. I wonder if they'll send Aaron as well.
