Title: Can Willco still defend Spider-Man 3 after the ridiculous NBC footage?
Post by: Howard Alan Treesong on March 06, 2007, 01:28:17 AM: :spin
1. Stupid scene with MJ
2. Stupid scene with Aunt May before she becomes Carnage
3. X-treme Green Goblin is even stupider than you imagined

The CG is SO bad even by the low standards of the franchise.

The Peter/Harry fight was one of the worse fights I've seen in a long time. This is sad because for the most part the effects were very good throughout the scene, although towards the end they started looking horrible (light saber wtf). It probably seemed cool on a storyboard but on screen it flowed horribly and seem totally contrived. To make matters worse Harry's "costume" is beyond ridiculous. How was that abomination approved for the movie?

I'll be there on day one but I must say that I'm hype level for the movie took another hit today. There was a time when I felt that Spiderman 3 would be the only sure thing with respect to 2007 summer movies, but now I don't know.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on March 06, 2007, 01:36:23 AM: I don't think the costume design has been bad, save for the Osborns. Doc Ock, Sandman and Venom all like fine and pretty faithful. Goblin had arguably the hardest costume to bring to screen, and they probably should've opted for an Ultimate version (he becomes an actual goblin, not dresses like one). I don't have the problems with the costumes as much as others, simply because it's a movie where a guy dresses in a red and blue spider outfit to fight crime. They're definitely not the peak of the series.

Title: Re: Can Willco still defend Spider-Man 3 after the ridiculous NBC footage?
Post by: The Fake Shemp on March 06, 2007, 01:56:34 AM: Okay, I watched it all. Phoenix Dark, per usual, is way overblowing it, but there is an easy to spot disparity between effects shots that looked good and ones that are either too ambitious for whatever effects house Sony is using or are not finished (maybe both?). I'm inclined to think it's the latter, because most of the sequences that looked good were just expanded ones that we've seen before and it was the all new footage that looked pretty shaky.

The new footage doesn't really do anything for me either way. I'm not excited, nor am I disappointed. This movie has been on shaky ground since we knew that Venom was going to be in this with a resolved storyline to boot. Until that is addressed, which basically means when I see it opening day, I can't really comment on if the movie will be good or not.

I wouldn't consider those the same. While I love the Potter movies I've never skipped school to see them. The first two movies were actually kind of meh, and I didn't even see Chamber of Secrets or PoA in the theater. I didn't see the first POTC in the theater either, and while I saw the second one on day one it's not a ritual for me. I saw both the Bourne movies on DVD.

LOTR and Spiderman movies are the ones I have skipped class to see, snuck large pizzas into (stuffed inside my friend's pants), cheered during, and seen multiple times (IE 3-5 times) in the theater.

Pepperoni/green peppers actually. Basically our plan was to leave school at 3pm and go see the movie around 5. So we all went to our respected classes (all towards the end of the semester) and planned to call each other around 3. I got the call around 3:05pm, at which point I made a sad face and said "I'll be right there!" to throw the teacher off. My friend actually yelled "GRANDMA?" into the phone and ran out of his class - leaving his backpack and books on the desk :lol

So anyway after that we crammed another friend's small ass car, threw on some Metallica, and headed to the dollar store. We got a shit ton of candy to pack into our pockets since you can't bring food into the theater. A bit later we ordered the pizza (LARGE), and my friend put it into his pants; he was wearing some of his dad's large ass work jeans. :bow

Got into the show around 30min before the trailers started rolling and ate.

And I shit you not, when Mary Jane said "go get em Tiger" towards the end of the movie like half of the audience exploded in cheers. A lot of the people who weren't comic fans didn't get it lol :lol

Bigger crowds of adult fans and more excitement then then going at like 3 PM. Except for Revenge of the Sith and The Phantom Menace. I saw those at midnight.

I saw TPM opening day at midnight, TWICE. I doubt anyone in the world has but me lol. I saw it opening day at midnight here in the states and a week later our family went to London England for like 3 months and TPM was opening there like a week after we got there.

I went at midnight showing day one there as well just for the hell of being able to say I saw it at midnight opening day twice even though the film wasn't that great.

I dunno if you can pull a batman forever like restart a mere couple years after a sequel with this franchise.

Post by: Phoenix Dark on March 06, 2007, 12:44:53 PM: They should just end it. Not killing off Aunt May in this movie is going to be a mistake. They should have her die as she did in the comic: revealing she knew Peter was Spiderman. That would give the movie some added emotional weight imo.

A long ass time ago. It was a nice, heartfelt storyarc too. Basically she revealed on her death bed that she knew he was Spiderman. That's what I like about the old Spiderman comics: they were action packed, but there was always an emotional undercurrent. Whether it was Harry's drug problem or Gwen Stacy's horrific death, Stan Lee and the writers who followed him were always doing more than just a superhero yarn.

He was the first teen superhero at a time when teens were only used as dumb sidekicks, and to make matters more interesting he was a poor social outcast, in direct contrast to the rich playboy backgrounds of Batman/Ironman/etc.

I was one who enjoyed the clip lol. I do think the movie will be average at best, not cause of CGI. 3 bad guys makes things way too complicated. One is un-needed(sandman), one is ugly as hell (goblin), and the only cool one only has 10 min of screen time. >:(

Most definitely. I've never defended the movie and it pisses me off that they put three villains in there instead of focusing on the coolest and the one that would really sell this movie to ANYBODY. Everyone who knows the smallest bit about Spiderman knows Venom.

But the CG whores are pretty obnoxious.

She came back. Well, she's come back a number of times, actually. The most recent one, and possibly the one you're talking about, "May" was revealed to be a genetically engineered actress.

lol 1990s, etc.

But it's possible that she just died in ASM.
