Spiderman 3 is out. And I haven't even bothered to pick it up. After two stellar installments in the series the third just fell so flat. It was so crammed full and most of it wasn't necessary. If they had left Venom for another installment it would have fixed most of it. Although there were still some pretty stupid decisions made throughout the movie.
Like for example the giant testing facility just out in the open that you can happen to come across while running from the law. HUH??? What the hell people? Would it really have been that tough to show him break into a place to try and lay low? Or anything moderately believable? I'm all for comic book logic, but some things are just stupid. And that's one of them.
And what court of justice saysit's fineto lay waste to half the NYPD then make it all OK by saying "Oops, sorry... uh, Venom made me do it"?

P.S. X2 owns.
I bought it on Wednesday, though I have mixed feelings about the film because of the overstuffed plot, ridiculous design of Harry Osborn's alter ego, and contrived ending. In the end, i still ike it, but after the first two, it pales considerably.
It also sets up the third movie in an interesting way; a more weathered, less exuberant Spidey, perhaps a bit more grown-up thanks to his experiences and the loss he carries. The Lizard, I demand the Lizard!

Maybe I'll just rent a bunch of Romeo movies instead. I finally caught the original Dawn of the Dead (which Dead Rising made me want to watch) and loved it. Awesome, awesome movie. Zombies rule, even when they're a bit blue and dodge out of the way of moving vehicles.
