FF2 had some great moments that people take completely for granted. Did it capture the Kirby/Lee comics perfectly? No, but neither has any other comic book movie. Why hold Tim Story to a higher standard?
SM3 not only strayed from the comics it had alot of crap that didn't add anything to the story/characters that just wasted people's time and bored them to tears.(2 MJ singing scenes? forced but useless Gwen Stacy cameo?) If you cut it down 30 minutes it might have the replay value of FF2.
Also when Reed is teary eyed because Sue died trying to protect the Surfer it wasn't unintentionally funny like Tobey Maguire crying in SM3. Then you have the parts in SM3 that are intended to be funny which end up being dumb and awkward. Dark Spidey being an emo goof ball? Most people thought that stuff was painful to watch. Also few of the action scenes resonate in SM3 because they seem contrived. Most of the action scenes in FF2 were important for character development or to build up toward the basic yet effective climax. Everything falls into place. SM3 is a convoluted mess that's frustrating to watch even as a fan.
i didn't see tears in his eyes during that scene, he just looked glum. he didn't show as much emotion as i thought he would've shown. your fiance just died! shed a tear or two dammit!
