THey screwed up a lot of storylines, had too many plot holes and had characters acting way out of the way they acted in the first movies.spoilers[spoiler]-Lets get this out of the way, far too much crying and singing in this movie. Heck Spiderman did a musical number. -They definately rushed the venom storyline. This really should have stayed two movies.  People, non comic book fans, left the movie theater wondering "what that black thing was".  It was never explained what venom's powers was and why he would have wanted revenge against peter parker.-Another crazy thing was the harry storyline. Somehow he threatends Mary Jane into breaking up with him, but this seems crazy.  If I know peter parker is spider man, and i know you are some dude with a few toys, i am going to put my faith in spider man.  In any case, Mary Jane never goes to tell Peter what happened, doesnt even try to explain it to him."-Though they introduced the astronaught trip last movie, they abandoned it this time, going for the quicker venom came in on a meteor storyline and luckily finds Peter Parkers mopad to hitch a ride on.  This is so contrived that I found myself suspending my belief way to farinto the film. -Instead of using Dr. Conner to identify the symbiote's weakness, they instead have Peter coincodently decide to take off his spiderman suit in the church.  He doesn't know that sound hurts it yet, so its amazing when bell rings and he realizes it is in pain. Why is Spiderman stripping in public.  Also, they never say that the suit is hard to take off. As a matter of fact, we see spider take off the suit twice, so it got real confusing when he tries to take it off in the church and it doesnt want to go. - There's no intro scene between Eddie Brock and Venom, which is a classic comic book introduction.  Actually, no one ever calls this thing venom.  It never has a name. - The jump the shark moment was when the green goblin, whom had tried to kill Peter twice so far in the movie, and had just had half of his face blown off by Peter, decides to help spiderman take out sandman and Venom.  Forget the comic book history here, As far as this movie goes, Venom has a better chance of helping out spiderman than the green goblin-MInor gripe- did anyone notice how they changed up the green goblin mask. This is a hollywood thing where they want as much of the actors face to show as possible.  Thus we kept seeing Topher Grace's face as he was venom. Everytime he talked we had to see Togher Grace. It began to get annoying-Too much too soon. They could have done this whole movie with just the sandman being the villian and it would have come across so much better and simpler. Instead they kept switching between so many scenes and cuts.  - Why did spiderman just let the villian get away.  Does he work for Oakland County, Michigan?  This guy has killed, hurt and stolen from a lot of people.  I"m very disappointed in Sam Raimi.  He obviously should have dropped part of this story if he knew he couldn't make two movies.  [/spoiler]</blockquote>
