If you haven't watched the film then please don't come in here because you opinion is somewhat unwanted and invalid...

besides, i don't want to spoil it for you








































Right, now for the rest of you, here is my dillema...

Spiderman effectively caused the death of two other peeps....

harry and also eddie at the end

he reacts to both pretty much the same way even though in one circumstance, it was under the influence of the black suit, while in the other incidence it wasn't...

how do you feel about this, especially the second one.
 
I feel that they should be handled a little differently. Harry was his best friend, and he should atleast be a little more emotional and repentant about it. However, at the end of the day -- two lives have been lost. Two deaths. It isn't uncommon for people to react to causing some unknown person's death the same way he would, if he had caused that of a loved one.

The black suit is just costuming. It only augmented what was already within Peter Parker. It unleased his darker side... it did not necessarily add very much to it.
 
But the lack of empathy towards eddie is somewhat....

harsh, especially considering the fact that he was supposed to be mirroring pete with his relationship to gwen, even though the money hungry chick dumped him as soon as he lost his job.

A man who was potentially corrupted by the symbiote lost his life due to his lust for it and it could have easily have been pete and it wasn't addressed at all at the end of the film, as he his death taught us nothing and was completely unnecessary.

At least ock's death was with some sort of heroic dignity attached to it.
 
Well I think the fact that Harry was dying took priority, he is his best friend and Brock did photoshop the image of Spidey and willingly wanted to be bad and enjoyed it. He also stupidly went flying back into the symbiote.

I think Pete's reactions were justified and correct.
 
Harry deserved the remorse because in his heart he was good, and he showed that. Brock was scum who needed his precious symbiote. Plus, Brock got himself killed. Spidey was trying to get rid of the symbiote. Harry died liked a hero, saving another.
 
Spidey warned Eddie about the suit and even tried to save him by webbing him away from it. Eddie chose his own destiny. He was a little a$$hole from the start and didn't even care about Gwen anyway. Gwen about to fall to her death and all he could think about was taking a picture. Weak as hell. No depth once again for Eddie Brock. It was weak to be praying in church to kill someone for his own misfortune.
