Well, I almost forgot to come back here and write my little rant about Spider-Man 3! Due to my falling ill and the constant flow of the city’s Spider-Man 3 fans, I didn’t end up going back to see Spider-Man 3 until the following Wednesday! Yep, I waited that long! We almost went the coming Sunday after it’s release, but it was still far too busy. On the Wednesday though, it was good. Hardly any viewers at all! Only had to share the cinema with about 4 other people. It was so good, we sat up the back and ordered coffee.

Spider-Man 3, yeah it was good. Yep, that’s about all I have to say. Thanks for reading!

Since you were smart enough to click the “Continue Reading” link, I’ll give you a little extra for your efforts.

Spider-Man 3 was good. I didn’t really have any expectations for it, only that I wanted it to be just as cool, if not cooler then the first two. So it exceeded those, which was good! Effects were awesome, story was awesome, acting was awesome. The only three things I care about, and they were all awesome! I guess that makes for an awesome movie!

The addition of characters was a bit weird. The sand man for example, WTF? Green Goblin Jnr (Harry) was awesome, it was a pity he was only in the movie for a short time. There should have been more of him, and less of the sand man (notice my lack of capitalisation for sand man…). I guess without the sand man, there would be no central vein to the story though.

The introduction of Venom was good. The whole “evil” Peter Parker / Spider-Man was a good idea, although I am not sure I really like the way Venom just came from out of space. Venom could have been a science experiment gone wrong or something cool like that.

I guess it doesn’t really matter, since Venom really is just a visual form of revenge, that as Aunt May plainly puts it in similar phrases; “revenge consumes you like a venom, causing you to commit acts that you will regret”. Venom consumed Peter / Spidey and the result was as expected. Peter / Spidey committed acts that he regretted. Once free of Venom, he was able to do good again.

So in summary (not that I have been very detailed at all above, it is 11:20pm), Spider-Man 3 really is about revenge and regret. Harry wanted revenge and regretted it when he found out the truth about his farther. Peter wanted revenge, and regretted it when he hurt Mary Jane, and when he hurt Harry. Spider-Man / Peter Parker wanted revenge, and regretted it when he killed his uncle’s killer.

The moral of the story? Don’t live with revenge in your heart.

Spider-Man 3, yeah it was good. Yep, that’s about all I have to say. Thanks for reading!
