Why oh why was this movie made

Rating: 5/10 (5 May 2007)

I just got out of Spider Man 3. Thankfully, I can save you from the horror that is this movie assuming you have not bought tickets. For all those who had a very icky taste after the way the second movie ended...this movie has that feeling All over the first 25 minutes of it. It is just plain disgusting and made watching the rest of it a chore. I don't know what was worse...the acting or the script, really they were both terrible.
There are A Grand total of Three cool parts in this movie and in the following order of coolness.
A. Bruce Campbell as a French restaurant guy. Probably the funniest scene in the movie.
B. Evil Peter Parker Dance at the Jazz Club. It was very evil and very cool looking at the same time.
C. The 15 minutes of Venom. I don't like the script they gave Venom, but when he was shrieking and not speaking it certainly made Venom much better then SandMan.
Yes. Thats Right. A Total of 10-15 minutes with the Insanely cool Venom.
But wait, you ask, Sandman wasn't cool? Thats right. Sandman was nicely CGIed, and his first fight with Spidy was decent, but honestly, the threw him in there for no other reason then to make Peter Parker unhappy and want revenge against someone again. By the end he completely lost his purpose, and the screen writers tried their best but it nowhere near enough to make him a full character.
But wait again, you say, Green Goblin returns yes? Indeed he does. Willem Dafoe even gets 15 seconds or so of Screen time. But even Stan Lee got more then that in this movie. Anyway, yes, there is Green Goblin, who gets royally beaten and happens to lose a good portion of his memory for about half of the movie. He returns and plays some severe vengeance (a good scene featuring him and Parker)...but then goes and ruins it completely like every evil maniac seems to do (making it Very very uncool).
Hey what about Gwen Stacy, she's there? Is she hot? Plot device. No character development, and really, I didn't think she was all that pretty.
How this movie could have been better?
A. Peter wakes up from a dream after the first 4 minutes of the horribly disgusting and poorly written (and just as poorly acted) opening and finds out his life sucks. Basically, cancel that "happy" ending they tagged on to the second movie. Make it so the papers still proclaim Spiderman as a criminal as opposed to a hero. That would Immediately make DarkSpiderman much more meaningful. Peter Parker should start in depression darn it.
B. Starting Peter in Depression means you no longer need Sandman as a major character, so you can drop him all together or leave him as a minor villain. If you really really want him there, give him a better story, the whole, "he killed your uncle" line was very poorly done.
C. Green Goblin and Venom vs SpiderMan would be a much more plausible fight. D. Dark Spiderman for first half of movie (start it MUCH sooner then it did), then Venom for the Second Half.
In fact, just redo the second movie, and make the ending much more Empire Strikes Back. Basically, what I'm referring to is the fact that the end of Spiderman 2 was really just to "happy". I know people liked it, but personally I just found it a bit distasteful. Mary Jane SHOULD have married the astronaut guy. The Last Scene should have been Peter eating a piece of Chocolate cake on his bed with the semi-cute neighbor girl next to him. It sets up SUCH a better opening then this laughable thing. Then for this movie Astronaut brings back Venom specimen. Specimen escapes, (insert plot device) and finds Parker to make Dark Spiderman...and I could go on and probably make a very cool plot line for the movie.
The worst thing, is that no matter how badly I personally rate this film, it will probably gross enough on opening weekend to pay the bills it cost. Frankly I hope it doesn't, a SpiderMan 4 would just be really really bad.
