The WTF Moments Of Spider-Man 3

[Golgo-13]

Harry and M.J, doing 'The Twist'.

And yeah, Stan Lee's cameo sucked!

 

[Goddessreicho]

10. Why is it that Spidey's mask always tears in the same damn place?

 

[nogster]

i havent read this whole thread so i dont know if this was mentioned yet,...
what about the scene with jj watching the battle royal surrounded by reporters....calling for parker because he has NO ONE to take pictures....wtf!!!!
so parker is the only photographer in the entire daily bugle?...there is an incident happening that is HUGE with reporters everywhere and we are expected to believe that JJ has NO daily bugle reporter available to take pictures?..so much so that he has to pay a little girl to take her crappy cam, in what is a totally silly, illogical and horribly cheesey scene....
what the hell was raimi thinking....
very dissapointed in this film..

 

[Golgo-13]

Peter showing up in Harry's apt asking for help.

O.K, the last time they had seen each other, Peter had tossed a pumpkin bomb in Harry's face, and i presume he assumed he was dead, therefore shouldn't he be suprised Harry was still alive?

 

[MARVELous M]

They should of kept the Godzilla roar.

ahah in certain trailers and ads, I thought I was the only one who noticed they were using the Godzilla roar.

10. Why is it that Spidey's mask always tears in the same damn place?

heh, I wondered the same thing

 

[JackBauer]

did anyone else notice the tune during Peter and Harry's tussle in Harry apartment? am I the only one who thought it was a little too jazzy?

I was like "WTF, Raimi, if you want to do a musical so bad, go do a musical, just leave Spidey alone"

My problem with the Sandman character was that there was no conclusion to it. It was like:
" OK I killed your uncle by accident, my daughter is dying, Ineeded money.."
"I forgive you"
"Bye"

I guess his kid is going to ****ing die then, but who knows, because there is no conclusion to that.

And how the **** does Aunt May not know what the hell is going on? I mean come on. Harry and his father are revealed as the Green Goblins, Mary Jane is constantly in the middle of ****, Peter is always having some kinds of problems or is nowhere to be found during these times. I thought for sure during this movie she would have found out or told him she knew the entire time or something. I don't know. It was just really disappointing if this is the last one. The Sandman character just really didn't seem to be needed. Take him out and focus more on Harry and Venom/Brock and this movie would have been better by default. Raimi still could have teamed up Spidey and Harry at the end if he still wanted, both of them could take out Venom. Thats another thing, Venom is never named "Venom" in the movie. Seems small, but its just an example of how underused that character was.

Money is very important in filmmaking. If you're a filmmaker, making money is one the 3 reasons why you should be making films. Well, that's at least what they told everybody in my film school.

What film school did you attend? That's one of the most ridiculous things I ever heard.

1 out of 100 film makers actually make money actually making films.

And that is most certainly not the reason to make a film. That kind of reasoning places you in the same room as Uwe Boll (creator of such greats as: Blood Rayne, Dungeon Siege, Alone in the Dark, Postal and Far cry)... Considered by many to be the worst film maker ever... right next to George Lucas.

You make films to tell a story... That doesn't make you a jerk. Making horrible, poorly thought out or poorly executed films to make money... That makes you a jerk.

 

[Capt Throbberson]

The news cast. It was a little too in depth.

And the fact that I felt worse for Brock than Peter by the end of the movie, and how everyone just seemed to forgive Peter without him explaining ANYTHING to them.

The message Venom made out of webbing, which happened to be in the exact same font as the titles on the covers of the comics. Venom's pretty talented.

LOL


I think the same many people say that this movie didn´t needed venom, and that the main story was about sandman (or him and the vulture at some point)... but i think the movie would have been better without him, just harry (don´t give me this "new goblin ****"... he WASN´T a goblin at all) and venom

there would have been more time for black spiderman and venom heck they could have even been able to to add JJ jameson son as the one that brought venom to earth

why did they introduced him in SM2 and not use the "astronaut" character in this?

 

[Comicfan]

The upside down Kiss of gwen ... what if she just pulled the mask all the way down in front of that whole crowd...

 

[Kane]

I'm going to have to go with the butler scene. It's like, "You knew my father killed himself all along, and didn't bother to tell me until now, after I pretty much ruined my best friend's life, and became disfigured? You *****e."

seriously.. wtf was up with that???

 

[Jigga]

not sure if it has been mentioned, but how quickly venom finds sandman and they become buddies.

 

[TheCheshireCat]

Here's a few (you can tell a lot of footage was cut):

1) "That was our kiss!"

Actually this line was absolutely perfect. If you're ever had a jealous girlfriend this one really hit home with you. Brilliant dialogue really.

 

[Retroman]

Harry and MJ doing the Twist, Pete playing the piano and Sandman becoming a windstorm.

 

[Spade]

-Eddie reminding us of his name multiple times
-Peter's close-up line as he began to dance in the jazz club
-Venom's shriek after being grappled by Marko
-Harry's creepy smile
-Doing the Twist (as Retroman mentioned)
-The Sandman's film exit

There are probably more, but most have to do with the overcharacterizations.

 

[nightwing06]

Jazz club!!!!! I thought i was watching Cabaret for a minute

 

[Jerry!]

LOL

Yeah I know about that argument, its dumb. You don't think that Raimi could flesh out Venom with enough screen time? Thats bull****. And if the Sandman story is just more of the same crap of him actually killed Ben, trying to get money for his daughter's illness, just keep it out of the movie altogether please. We don't need another sympathetic villain that we can understand how it was all an accident and bad luck for the guy. I liked Doc Ock in SM2, but we don't need another villain like that again, especially if its not going to be developed more, which there was no way it was in this movie with two other villains. Keep him out, focus more on the origins of the symbiote, and focus more on Harry and his father, etc.

People say removing Venom would solve the problems the film has, but then we would be left with a rehash of SM2. Peter goes against a villain who was created by accident, who really isn't a bad guy, just wrong place wrong time, motive was for curing his daughter's illness. Its all so similar to Doc Ock from the second movie. And then of course Harry wants revenge, just like in the second movie. Theres no Venom, so throw out Eddie Brock and Gwen Stacy. And yeah, your pretty much left with another SM2. Same basic storyline recycled, just with a different main villian. Not that it was a bad movie, far from it, just it wouldn't really be a sequel as far as taking it up a notch.

But I can understand their argument to a degree. But in the end its like this: Venom is a big part of the Spider Man universe. He just is, no other way of saying it. Sooner or later he is going to be in one of these movies. Now I can compare to how Robin is viewed in the Batman universe, but thats not really fair because I am sure there are a helluva lot more people that like Venom than like Robin. The point is, that if done correctly, Venom could work in a Spiderman movie, same as Robin could work in a Batman movie and still be good. SM3 is not an example of doing Venom correctly in a movie.

A few more WTF's:

- The scientific expirement Marko tumbled into is wide open, nice controlled environment there smart guys, so controlled that birds fly in at will.
- Sandman sounding like a T-Rex when he got really big.
- Jonah having heart problems but has his desk rigged up to buzz when his secretary needs to remind him of something, and every buzz causing him jump every time. Great for the heart.
- Captain Stacy and Brock's generaly apathy to their daughter/girlfriend hanging for dear life 40 stories up.
- The acting of the children in the movie, yikes.
- Harry dieing the same way his father did, by being impaled by his own hovercraft.

 

[Keymaker]

Harry doing a disappearing act at the cafe. How could he move that fast? Did he quickly duck under the table?

That made me laugh *imagines Pete going back to the caffe and seeing Harry under the table* t:

 

[Webzpinner]

Upon my second viewing of the movie, I definitely saw bones vaporizing after the bomb. I think Brock is finished and so is the symbiote...At least most of it.

-TNC

Brock is not finished... mark my words, they will do the lame Ultimate Venom idea that the suit can reconstitute the host, and one of the splatters at the construction will grow and develop into Brock and the symbiote, reforming Venom for the tragic big screen debut of the biggest money making excuse for poor writing: Carnage.

I agree with most of these, though the whole bit with Jonah's desk is just for comedic purposes, it was ironic in that it was supposed to remind him of his heart, but makes matters worse for his heart actuall. Just comedic relief, I actually liked it. And I believe Harry wasn't impaled by his own hovercraft, but some sharpened steel that Venom was about to impale Peter with. Other than that, I agree with you.

Oh, for some reason I thought it was his hovercraft.

The Jonah thing was definately funny, I laughed heartily, just thought it was almost too silly to exist.
