Spiderman 2 Spoiler Thread

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Alright, I've got to start this. Just got home. I can't describe how much I loved this movie.

I can't really even slow down my thoughts to get things down...but I can say one thing right now: Looks like we know the next villain, and that was a big surprise to me!

Must...sleep somehow. But...the fight on the side of the train. ALL the fights. Everything too amazing...I'll try to compose my thoughts more tommorrow. Overall though...I think my lack of ability to describe it shows how much I loved it.

I couldn't have said it better, AMG. You captured my feelings perfectly. One word review: Wow.

Before I go pass out...a question: Did anyone else find themselves having a lot of tear-jerker moments? Or at least strongly emotional ones? I thought RotK was strong...but man, seeing Doc Ock realise what he was doing was just powerful...same with his sacrifice...and Peter realizing what he had to do...etcetcetc. There were a lot of em.

Indeed this was a very emotionally charged movie. For me it was because I was such a long time fan of Spider-Man and all his supporting characters and this movie treated them with such love and respect. There were so many times I could feel the tears starting to form.

I'm going to have to drag myself to the theater now. This movie looks good in the trailers and is getting good reviews.

I thought that this movie was great. I think my favorite comedic relief scene (out of so many as Todd said) was, and I'm paraphrasing:

"How'd you do that?"

"Ummm...exercise and eating your vegetables."

"My mom's always trying to get me to eat my vegetables."

I can't agree more. I have been a huge Spidey fan since the 70's, and this movie has it all. They did an unbelievable job on Doc Ock's arms, and Alfred Molina was awesome. And since this is a spoiler thread, did anybody else get a serious vibe that Aunt May knows Peter is Spidey? That scene in the driveway she was practically shouting it, in my eyes....

It appeared that way to me as well.

They really hit it outta the park with this one. I think that SM3 will have a LOT of expectations to fill after this one.

For a bit of fun, here's a guess at what may appear next in the series:

• Pete & MJ are together, & the issue is now about the 2 of them growing distant to to work, plus MJ's worry over Pete being Spider-Man (much as with the spouse of a fireman or cop, each time Pete "goes to work," it could be the last time MJ ever sees him again--that stress has got to get to her).
• Harry appears as a Goblin (either Green #2 or Hob), & he's hell-bent on revenge. However, his personal life develops (intro Liz Allen) & he has to choose between revenge over the past or a happy life in the future.
• Dr. Connors becomes the Lizard. Spidey feels driven to save Dr. Connors (even though this may strain his relationship with MJ in the process). At the same time, Spidey has to deal with Harry as the new Goblin (& this goblin's quest for revenge). Could tie in an Eddie Brock appearance, too (see below).
• John Jameson brings back the symbiote after one of his space jaunts. Spidey gets the "suit," learns the truth about it, & then gets rid of the symbiote.
• Eddie Brock rises from obscure reference in SM1 to background character in the next movie: he's out to "unmask" the Lizard, & doesn't care if he destroys a person's life as a result. Spidey, of course, foils him & gives Brock a reason to hate Spider-Man. Of course, the symbiote finds Brock, lets him in on a secret or 2, and Venom is poised to appear in the next film.

Hell, for good measure, why not throw in Black Cat to add to the relationship stress between Pete/Spidey & MJ?
