Fanboys are so funny.
The one thing I give the cartoon show above SM3 is that it gave Venom enough screentime and developed him post-transformation better (albeit Brock pre-transformation was really lame).
I loved the cartoon, it was a great show, especially for kids but I saw it again last year and it is meant for kids. If you want to complain about shallow villains than watch that.
And after season 1, overstuffing how many episodes did we have where it'd be Kingpin, Smythe, Silvermaine, Tombstone, Lizard, Scorpion and Vulture in one freaking episode? Or Venom, Carnage, Iron Man, War Machine and that weird inter-diemnsion guy?
That makes SM3 look well paced. But it is a cartoon show driven by action for kids. The movies have a resonance with the main three characters (Peter, MJ and Harry) and their tangled relationships which the third did flawlessly. In fact I think 3 would have been a lot better if Sandman wasn't even in it and it was 90 minutes of Peter/Harry/MJ with developing Brock more and then Venom could have more building time to make his move without a lame team-up.
But in short the movie handeled just about everything better than the cartoon and this is ridiculous. Do I need to remind you that in the cartoon Harry's transformatioin ends with him being talked out of it and Pete's edding day by Liz and not doing anything? Or GG1 being stuck in an "alternate demnsion," really talking to Harry?
No thanks. And as disappointed as I was by little Aunt May the cartoon was less.
