It was a few years back when the metallic looking logo for the Spider-Man movie started popping up. It was good to see that the logo was alive in the opening titles for the movie, after of course the cool comicbook flicker of MARVEL.
As one of the "die-hard" Spider-Man fans out to nitpick the details to death, it was extremely worth the expense of having to sit in a cinema with an 4 to 7 year-old constantly talking all the way through the movie.
The movie was just like reading a Spider-Man comicbook in full motion, but it wasn't like watching an episode of Wonder Woman.
The most surreal aspect of the entire movie was the costume itself. Such detail and faithfullness, unlike a rubber-suited Spawn who is supposed to be made of maggots and grubs. A few people in the "no-brainer" clique existent only in disconnection dismissed it as something that needed more action. Obviously the no-brains play heavy on their set. The organic webshooters were a kick in the teeth but that was okay, everything else made up for it.
Just to nitpick: Mary-Jane lived with her Aunt Anna and in the house on the otherside of Peter's. Flash is a blonde. Robbie is thinner. Gwen died at the bridge. Miguel O'Hara has the finger-tip protrusions...
But damn it is fine. Must watch it again. In the World Unity Festival scene there appears to be what looks like a cowering Stan Lee under falling rocks.
When the credits were just about to roll the floodlights come on with full force. After the eyes readjusted following the onslaught the credits read "Punk Rock Girl - Lucy Lawless," but it could have been chick. The only detracting thing was the over abundance of under M rating kids. Inconsiderate parents.
