The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Something I can't stand

[Spidey-Lad93]

I think people that say having more than one villain in a movie will make it not very good is a myth Spider-Man 3 wasn't disappointing because of the amount of villians that was down to the writing I mean they could have replace the dance scenes with more black suited Spider-Man action or not make Sandman Uncle Ben's real killer etc (this thread is for people saying The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will suck even before seeing it because it has more than one villian)

Dude, I'm not trying to be an ass, but you don't need to make a new thread for every thought you have on the movie.

I'm a new member so I'm still excited making these threads I'm pretty sure in time I wouldn't make so many and I joined this forum to get some things off my chest

I felt the movie was a little overstuffed BUT that was more due to the airport scenes and tieing up his fathers arc from the first movie and not about the villains

Part of Spider-Man 3's problem was the villains though. There is no unifying plot point where having Venom, Sandman, and Harry as villains made any sense, and IIRC, it was another generic "yo, you hate Spidey too? K we will join in and kill him" plot point. I wouldn't even call it a myth, since I believe there's a problem there. It's not like the Dark Knight, where Two-Face as a villain made sense since he was the direct result of the Joker's acts, not to mention, the Mob was the reason why the Joker was brought to Gotham.

Then you have the writing/narrative problem, where it tries too hard to cram in as many plot points as possible, and consequently it is incoherent. For instance, the whole Venom origin being rather convenient (oh look, a symbiote from space that just happens to crash land on Earth!), the shoehorned love triangle between Gwen, Peter and MJ, the Sandman retcon.
