Are you SERIOUS? It looks so good in the trailers….of course I have an 8 year old son who has been literally waiting half his life to see this movie.

Well, at least he'll like it.

Trish from Memphis

I don't know what has been happening lately but movies and shows these days are starting to suck enormously! I don't really watch reg TV anymore but a friend of mine got me into Lost last year. I really enjoyed the first season and some of the second but now I get severely dissapointed at the end of each show. It's like they hired the new Simpsons writers to wind up the series. First two Spidermans were great! This one is terrible. If you value good acting, character development or good storyline you'll hait Spidey 3. Wait for a copy to come out and download it. It's not worth paying money for. It reminds me of Batman 4 with Mr. Freeze and whoever else was in there. If you are really really dumb you'll enjoy spidey 3.

Yeah, it sucks

I was truly hurt… I've been waiting this long for this crap. The movie was going OK until he gave up Venom (which we knew would happen). But after that, the delicious popcorn aroma in the theater turn to pure hot garabage funk because of Spiderman 3. What the h@$L was Sam thinking??? Oh well, we got the Fantastic 4 and the Transformers to look forward too.

Initially shocked and disappointed by the casting of Topher Grace as Eddie Brock, I went into the movie a little skeptical but decided to give it a chance…So now after seeing the movie, I can say with some authority that it was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It was in no way true to the comic, but that wasn’t what bothered me. What bothered me was the weak story line, poor character development and laughable scenes and displays of emotion. While the movies visuals and graphics were entertaining, it was not enough to save or redeem the movie. The storyline was weak, and because of the inclusion of too many villains, and not enough time, the characters were flat and one dimensional. Perhaps in the attempt to widely market this movie to children, they relied to much on special effects, and laughable over the top acting, and ignored the post pubescent audience who inevitable found the movie to be a little ridiculous. So, if you happen to be under the age of 10, or just have the mental capacity of a child, perhaps this is the movie for you- but otherwise it’s a stinker.

I'm with you there. I just got back from seeing this, and came across this blog after a Google search of "Spiderman 3 sucks," just to see if I was just crazy or something. It was a waste of three hours, not to mention 10 bucks. At least the IMAX version was sold out, saving me the pain of seeing this garbage on a six storey tall screen.

hehe brad i did the exactly the same thing and i didnt like the movie either

I would have to say I did not like the movie either. I came across this site the same way, by googling it.

I went to see the 9am show here in ottawa, and I was very disappointed. It will be entertaining to any kids out there but for adults who loved the 1st and 2nd it just blew.

what happened in this movie i as all off you Need too know? #1 why the hell was there so much belaboring going on throughout the whole movie there where good short action scenes follwowed by countless belaboring. #2 at the end where pretty much the best parts where "as always", Venom has such a short role and ends up dieing very retardedly in the end, why is that? Venom never dies and they didint even put him before the credits indicating that he might never Return what the hell is the deal With that? please respond to me im trying to understand. Other than that the movie was pretty good. "NOOOOT OK IT SUCKED I AGRE WITH ALL OF YOU!

I totally agree! This movie was by far the worst piece of crap I have ever seen. I was shocked by the utter shittines of this film. They basically threw away what was built up in the first two films: Harry Osborne's quest for revenge was altered when a new character(a random butler) goes all CSI on osborne and exclaims "I have seen lots of strange things in this house and i have never spoken about any of them. But on that night when your father died, I treated his wounds and I can say that those wounds were definetely self afflicted" I mean WTF who is this guy? The butler basically turns Harry over to the light side and he ends up saving Spidey's ass 3 times. Everybody in the theatre booed the film during the credits and it deserved the treatment. The dialogue was very lengthy and dumbed down to the point where a dog would understand it. The only semi-good acting was done by the under-utilised Thomas Hayden Church as Sandman. When Spiderman (which is what Tobey Mcguire will be called as for the rest of his now unemployed life) broke down in tears in one of the most "dramatic" sequences the entire audience broke out in laughter. The addition of strange musical numbers (one of which lasted minutes long) made me wonder if I was involved in some sort of sick joke. The comedy in Spiderman 3 unnerved me greatly. Bruce Campbell's lengthy cameo as a french waiter made Steve Martin's performance as Inspector Clousseau look Oscarworthy, and Peter Parker's freaky emo hairdo alongside his ridiculous John Travolta-in-Saturday-Night-Fever-walk impression made the house erupt with cries of "what the hell?"
This movie made my night into a waste of time. I could have stayed home and watched Barney and would be more entertained than I was.
I guess some of this movie's 500 Trillion dollar budget was spent bribing Reviewers to give it a half decent score.
Sam Raimi what have you done?
Where has my Spiderman Gone…..

I seem to recall Raimi stating (soon after Spider-Man 2) that he didn't like Venom as a character, and that he didn't think he was very interesting. Then, after a year or so, he's all of a sudden using Venom. My perspective on Spider-Man 3 is that Raimi had alot of corporate pressure on him to include certain characters since the third film was the end of Dunst's and McGuire's 3-film contract. There is a really good plot in there somewhere, and I'm willing to bet Raimi only wanted Sandman and Harry. The black suit was just rediculous, and Venom was tacked on. Awful stuff. The plot should have been simplified ALOT. I've grown so attached to the characters of Peter, MJ, and Harry, that to see them in part 3.. oh man. You'll have to see for yourself. To be honest, I think Raimi was making a statement with the third film… this man knows how to make a movie, and when he makes something as epicly bad as this flick, he's sending us all a message: SORRY BUT THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CONTRACTORS DOMINATE A PRODUCTION. I feel he deliberately let it die.

I completely agree with all of you. What the H-E-L-L has Raimi done??! 1 and 2 were ions better. They built up a great story line for the past 4 years to bring us this crap? Harry dies? What is that?! What was the deal with the ring if he never even gives it to MJ? As far as I'm concerned, the story of my Spiderman ended at number two. There were more conclusions in that movie than in this one. I don't know who the heck this spiderman was, but my spiderman is no punk-emo SOB who kisses another girl upside down…..i mean, seriously. way to go Raimi. way to spoil what could have been the best trilogy ever. You ruined it you big #(*$&#($*&#($!!

What a piece of crap. I like the others above me searched on google for "Spiderman 3 sucks." What a waste of 9 dollars. There were a couple of great parts though. I loved the preview of the new Bourne Ultimatum movie! Those movies were great and if they screw this 3rd one up, I vow to NEVER watch another 3rd in a series again…

Back to the movie. I cannot believe that he turned into a FREAKING EMO! are you KIDDING ME???? I thought he was gonna paint his nails black and listen to freaking Fallout Boy on his iPOD after the jazz restaurant scene. Screw this movie, don't waste your money…. search for a torrent file.

What an awful movie…...

I hardly ever go to the theathers to see movies, but somehow i wasted 9 freakin bucks and 3 hours of my life on this. I've never been so disappointed after a movie in my life. I feel so much like giving up… but hey, i could just turn emo and flip my hair and maybe i'd be fine right?

Here's a short list of all the terrible scenes so we can remember them togehter:

1) Spiderman flips his hair down
2) he tells the girl to get him some milk and make some cookies with nuts in them
3) he learns how to play the piano and dance/dress like john travolta
4) stupid butler says one thing that totally changes the anger built up inside of harry osborne over the course of the first 2 3/4 movies
5) after a concussion, harry turns gay/metrosexual
6) mj and harry dance in the kitchen together while they bond over an omelette (even though in the scene before harry asked the butler to make food)
7) the waitress asks harry how his pie is, so just like anyone would, he says "(insert gay lisp) sooooo good!"
8) tobey realizes he can't beat the sandman so he just cries and says he forgives him so the guy will leave him alone
9) the sandman character comes out of nowhere, and all of a sudden is the real killer of his uncle
10) there are 2 different versions of the killing the uncle… the evil one and then the compassionate one which is apparently supposed to make you feel bad for the poor guy who committed a robbery a murder
11) peter tries to do his best frodo impersonation while trying to catch a ring that he never even gave to her
12) spiderman kisses another girl upside-down when he knows mj is sitting there watching it all
13) HAIR FLIP WTF WTF WTF
14) lame ass crowd cheers for him like it's a movie made for 5 yr olds
15) random dump truck full of cinderblocks just shows up in the web above mj's taxi out of nowhere
16) banging metal together makes the evil venom go away????
17) many many more that i do not have time or energy to remember…

aaaahhhhhhhhhh SPIDERMAN 3 SUCKS!

Not to mention how the sandman just turns to a jet stream and flys away after parker forgave him….soooo stupid…

this movie was sooo lame..

some parts were cool…

...but, come on….it sucked…

Yep, crap movie. I can't believe its got 62% on rotten tomatoes, I found this site by googling "spiderman 3 sucks ass".
I've got another crud scene: the spiderman in front of the american flag crap.
I really am bummed about how bad this was, 1 and 2 were pretty good. I guess I should have seen this coming with the "raindrops keep falling on my head" scene from spiderman 2.
Totally gay.

THIS MOVIE SUCKED ASS there is so many things wrong with this movie i dont even know where to start. But i'm gonna say that they had far too many villans which hurt it so much. too many BULLSHIT emotional scenes, unecesssary musical scenes, weak dialogue. I felt like i was watching 7th heaven not a comic book action movie. DON'T wast ur time or money going to see it. And this is coming from a die hard spiderman fan.

This movie took crap to an entire new level. Reading Spiderman for years, it's as if Sam Raimi took the entire series and squeezed it into a tiny 2 hour ADD flick by someone who must've been on crack.

When he made Mary Jane Watson become a whiny, emotional wreck…I said okay. When Mary Jane Watson was kidnapped twice, I said…that's alright. It was all building to this confronation between Harry and Peter. And…it was like getting blue balls…there no satisfaction. The acting was contrived, the love story drab, and the plot as weak as characterization of each of the characters (sorry but a 1 minute sob story doesn't do any of the characters ANY justice. They had the opportunity to talk about the struggle Harry had with Peter and his father, but they made the inevitable teamwork as predictable as the lame storyline).

This movie was nothing but a one trick pony…relying on the lame love story that you thought ended in Spiderman 2, the same kidnapping routine (can you guess who gets kidnapped again?), the same cheezy running in front of an American flag scene (I thought Sam Raimi was done with the cheeziness with Xena and Hercules under his belt, but those tv shows were actually entertaining), the same lackluster dramatic scenes… The only thing different were lame emo hairstyles (am I good Peter or am I bad Peter, let my hair decide!). The ONLY thing good about this film was literally the five minutes with Toby Grace, the only enjoyable part of the film….wait, the preview was pretty nice too.

It feels that the ONLY people who can do any comic-based film any justice are those who are actually in that industry (Black/Gaimon easily come to mind).

um totally agree… pretty much 20 min into the movie i was reminded of a cheesy disney movie. and yes-at the end when harry dies the ENITRE audience started laughing their asses off

Dude, I saw the film yesterday, and found your blog by doing a Google search for "Spider-Man 3 sucks". I agree 100% this film is quite possibly the worst one I've suffered through in a long time. One aspect that no one has mentioned yet is the score; Danny Elfman did the first two films, but Sam Raimi alienated him so much doing the second film that Elfman stopped calling him his friend and referred to him as "the director" instead. The few times we did hear the music from the first films, it just doesn't fit with the rest of the score. Complete and utter hack job. (groan)

i did the same google search, thank goodness other people arent sucking up to the film too. so annoyed at this utter crap fest…i seem to dislike it more and more by the hour as i think about it.
could have been a fantastic trilogy, the best ever, but somehow they ******* it up big time.
the first films had meaning and reasoning behind them, the world of spiderman was fleshed out and logical in a sense…but in this film everything was just a series of coincidences with no explanation at all. just to top it off, so many glaring continuity errors too in the film.

ps…..when the movie ended, our entire theatre was silent. i heard like two people clapping. EVERYONE was disappointed. We sat in line for 2 hours for this ??!

THANK YOU!

Like everyone here I saw this last night and was excited beyond excited. I DID NOT even bother to read any form of spoilers because I like to walk in as ignorant as possible. It usually makes an experience more enjoyable and surprising.

When Topher Grace introduced himself as "Brock" I LITERALLY said WHAT!? and threw my arms up to complain and then remembered that I was in a theatre surrounded by people I do not know, and stopped… Thoroughly annoyed at this horrible casting.

From the very beginning I was a little more bored than I had expected. But I kept telling myself "it will get better.. but it didn't! I was never fond of the casting of Tobey McGuire… but could get past that in the other movies because they were so well done and the spider man scenes far out did any peter parker scenes…But this movie was FULL of nothing but Peter Parker, and his whining. Even the majority of the fight scenes he fought as Peter Parker, not Spider Man and if he was actually in costume, most of those scenes his mask was off, or ripped… I WANNA SEE SPIDER MAN!

And what happened to his Spider Sense? Not once did he seem to use it… He would have dodged that spitball, and he would have jumped before Harry could attack him from behind… It was just so bad.

I am surprised you lasted as long as you did. I was willing to walk out somewhere around half way through. Maybe earlier. But I didn't pay for my ticket… not exactly an option. I promised my mom I would see it again with her, but I told her not to bother, and wait for it to come on TBS in 2 years.

I also found this by googling "spiderman 3 sucks" – you may be happy to know you're the top spot

Was that Tobey Maguire as PP/SM or was it the guitarist from every emo band ever? Hard to tell. My buddy and I went to see it this morning and the first thing he said was "I didn't know it was Spiderman: The musical" and I said "I would've been really pissed if I went to the midnight premieres to watch THAT." Who wants to see Spidey as Dr. Phil? Who wants to see that bad guys are really just people too? Why the hell did Parker wake up Aunt May at 2am (check the clock over the stove) to tell her he was going to propose? Let the old lady sleep, she's 426 years old. What kind of particle physics lab schedules experiments for the middle of the night and then ignores warnings? I guess it'd be pretty easy to confuse Flint Marko with a bird for a bunch of highly trained and educated scientists. The setup for Sandman and Venom were poorly done, MJ and pre-Venom Parker were massively annoying, Venomized Parker was creepy in that "College guy who digs high school sophomores" vein, and apparently the rest of the movie after Spidey dumps Venom was written, produced, and directed by the Lifetime channel. I can't even find a reason to buy the DVD for this in the future. How did things go from Spidey 2, which was not only a great comicbook movie but a great movie in general, to this steaming pile of frogvomit?

I completely agree. The film was god-awful. I wouldn't blame Raimi though.. I mean, people will because they need to point a finger. This film fell apart because of corporate influence… "Include this character and that character The fans want it!! Yeah ahuh yeah!!"

I heard Raimi had a script well underway before Marvel approached him saying to include Venom.. and half a dozen other characters. Basically, people who know nothing about writing a good story got way too involved. I mean.. c'mon.. it's obvious from the first two movies that Sam Raimi knows good pacing and character development.

Peter may of had the black suit, but even when he wasn't wearing it.. Peter was a MUCH more strong willed character in the previous movies. He was the one cautioning Doc Oc about his fusion experiment. The writing in part 3 just was not faithful to the first two installments. So sad..

SANDMAN WAS NOT REQUIRED WITHOUT HIM THE STORYLINE COULD HAVE BEEN RE-INVENTED TO FIT MORE OF VENOM IN AND THUS BE A MUCH BETTER FILM

A DISSAPOINTING 7/10

I totally agree with everyone you said. The movie was such a huge let down. He took a good franchise and took it back to his Evil Dead days…. Good thing the movie has alot of hype cause not many poeple will reccomend it

I can't wait for Emo-Man 4, maybe peter and carnage can slit there wrists.

Spider-Man 3 beat Ninja Turtles 3.

Now, if you've seen both movies, you know what I'm talking about.

Ninja Turtles 3, up until this point, was the biggest disappoinment, and took a dump on my childhood.

Spider-Man 3 beat it out.

Okay, fanboy part first, I'm a child of the ninties. I love Venom. If you're a fan of Venom, you are obligated to hate this movie. Pure shit. Pure and utter shit. The fanboy in me has died.

That said, as a movie? Horrible. Too much going on, editing was shit, and what the hell was with that music? The crappy Batman ripoff for the black suit, or how about that lovely jazzy shit during the second Harry/Peter fight? How about the 500 storylines with countless plotholes and NO conclusions to any of them.

The geek in me can give you countless reasons why this was shit, but I'm sure all of you have already been pissed at Venom's shitty voice or Sandman's excessive use (and theyu still couldnt make him anything but one-dimensional) But as a movie? Still shit. Shitty shitty shit shit.

I think for once the internet has been united.

it took the tragedy that is Spider-Man 3 to do it.

Had to weigh in on this one. Hollywood should leave the comics alone. The storylines are way too deep for this generation. Nor can you cram them into a 2 hour film. It's like they have no respect for the people who grew up on them. They do them not justice by ruining their legacy. Hollywood royally fucked up X-Men, Daredevil, the first Fantastic Four sucked balls, the last Spider-man was mediocre, The Hulk blew, and this movie hurt my heart. Not to mention the 17 bucks I wasted. They've ruined my childhood memories over and over! And to the last poster, I knew TMNT would suck but this one caught me off guard. I was going around telling people this would be the best one of the three. I had that same excitement I had the night the Return of the King debuted. I mean, it wasn't even DVD worthy! Saying it sucked is giving Spidey 3 way too much credit. This bullshit already set a box office record for one day. And to those in the minority who think the movie was "great", why wouldn't a purist want the movies to be like the comics?! Those are precious memories! This stuff is sacred

Well, Google lead me here to, so here it goes:

I`m a batman fan. I hated spiderman until venom appeared in the comic books. Then I became a venom fan cause he`s the only decent villain (well, carnage also, but it came from venom so I guess it`s the same) in the spidey saga. I loved the first two movies, but when I heard that venom was going to appeard in the third I said to myslef: "AT last" then I heard about topher grace… yeah that skinny weakling from that 70`s show… so then I said to myself: "At..least" I thought venom was so damn cool that even a shitty actor like topher could do for the part, and even if he sucked, I trusted that raimi would came out with a great and envolving plot to end the trilogy… This is not only my sad story I think we all here are hurt deep inside our fanboy and nonfanboy hearts… even superman returns looks great next to this huge pile of corporate crap! WTF???!! sandman`s a stupid villain and they gave him more screentime than venom!! and the metorite with the symbiote fell down from nowhere like a freaking acorn! who wrote this shit? 300 million bucks? even the blair witch project rocks next to this crap and it was way cheaper! I feel as if i killed someone now that I saw this movie, cause even remembering it makes me feel guilty!

Spiderman is officially dead. I'm just going to pretend this movie doesn't exist.

1. Gwen Stacey should have been in the first movie. She falls off a bridge and dies during a battle with Norman Osborn. The fact that she was put in the 3rd movie and DOESN'T DIE and SPIDERMAN KISSES HER IN FRONT OF MJ is…awful.

2. Venom is Spiderman's Arch Enemy. HE DOESN'T DIE. WTF
I mean the Venom storyline was maybe the only consistent thing in the movie and comic up until THEY KILLED HIM
but COME ON. He's a mainstay in the Spiderman storyline. Without Venom, any attempt at a Spiderman 4 is worthless.

3. "I Forgive You Sandman"
WTF WTF WTF

4. Harry never forgives peter! They have a love/hate relationship. If they ever worked together it was for Harry's Benefit. He never saved Spiderman's ass, and if they were friends one day, they were bitter enemies the next. Harry never calls Peter "Buddy" again. And they killed him!! What the hell was that!
Harry dies eventually yes, but its from a heart attack from using too much strength enhancing serum. Bloody Hell.

5. Emo Peter. Don't even get me started

6. The whole song and dance musical crap in general. What….The…..Hell….

One of the worst movies I've ever seen, if not the worst. Just because its Spiderman and a lot of us grew up on Spiderman. They made this movie for little kids who don't know the storyline and just disregarded every fan of the comic. I'm pretty upset and now can only hope that the franchise is dead because a Spiderman 4 could only suck even more after that pile of trash.

Found this site doing a google search and I am glad I am not the only one that hated this movie. There were so many plot holes that you could not count them. Does any know what happened to the crane after spiderman rescued Gewn Stacy? I mean it just disappeared from the entire part of the movie. The Gewn Stacy character served no purpose other than to set up the crane accident.
I think this movie had a enough plot elements for it to be two movies in one. Spiderman 3 should have been about Harry and Sandman with Eddie Brock becoming Venom at the end to set up the fourth movie. I think that contract issues with the stars though made this impossible.

Also can I ask WHAT the F***K is up with Hollywood these days. Pirates 2 sucked balls, and now spiderman sucks as well. The problem also is happening with TV shows, like Lost. Hollywood should put out calls for decent writers because currently there is a lack talent

I liked Eragon better. And those are words any self-respecting human being would have never uttered before this movie. Where to begin?
Spiderman 1 and 2 were good, although Tobey McGuire has ALWAYS been a horrible actor, ranking up there with Afleck and clowns like Steve Martin and Jim Carey. His performance in this movie, could, should, and will leave him unemployed.
Rushed storyline and underdeveloped characters were the best part of the movie. Sandman, the badass thief and lowly criminal, has a big heart, and can leave puppy-eyed PETA children crying as if they were watching Bold and the Beautiful. Eddie is just a fruit. He loses a job and a girl (and he was only trying to get into her pants) and all of a sudden becomes a God-invoking wannabe serial killer. In this case it would have been nice of him to spare us the pain and just OD on X like a good emo child. Harry was a sorry excuse of a villain, having personality issues and making omelets with Mary Jane before he realizes what a crackpot badass he was. Although he attempts to be villainous, he fails miserably when his butler pulls an Alfred on him. Then he goes all noble on everyone, fulfilling the horrible foreshadowing done earlier in the movie (" I would die for them"...that crap.). All of the villains had their softie moments, trying to make themselves more personable, but that only works with GOOD actors.
Tobey needs to take some lessons in acting. Hell, even some pointers from Jackman would have done him good.
What the hell was all of that emo-spiderman crap? Fringe? Wrist slashing action? WTF? The whole emo bit was horrific to watch, although I liked it when he slaps MJ. She deserved that after HER bloody horrible acting. No emotion, yet emo. What is the world coming to?
Not only was this movie a MESS, but there was a song and dance routine. A SONG AND DANCE ROUTINE. It was like watching a terrifying male version of a goth Mary Poppins meets Michael Jackson. I wanted to laugh or cry but I was utterly horrified.
Please do yourselves a favor and don't watch this movie. If you have, get counseling. I know that I personally enjoyed the credits, as the entire theater broke out into sarcastic comedy and clapping, but that was it. I'm scarred for life. Every time someone mentions Spiderman, I will have the painful image of an emo Tobey McGuire dancing in a jazz bar. Damn you Raimi. Damn you.

i just want to thank you all for your painfully true comments on here…. i've seriously been in a Spiderman 3 induced depression for the last 24 hours…and your comments have lightened my mood a little. although i still can't sleep…....because every time i close my eyes i see the evil emo tobey dancing on a table top and james fraco trying to flip an ommlette….....

i have to agree…. Damn you Raimi.

The movie hasn't arrived here yet, and i must say the great anticipations i had just got all destroyed by critics. Is that movie REALLY bad? Like, is it any sad? or romantic? or just…well, what similarities does it have with the other 2? I'm really puzzled! I'll still go watch it, but sure not at the premiere… gosh! I'M IN REAL NEED OF EXPLANATION, A bit MORE IN DEPTH…! Plz help me out! thx…! :-)

The movie never matches the comics. In Japan we have the Japanese manga version of Spiderman where our Peter Parker (Komori Yu) is a much darker and more repressed character. The movie opened in Tokyo first but I would have liked to have seen a movie based on the Japanese manga version
http://japansugoi.com/wordpress/cool-japanese-manga-version-of-spiderman/

As some people have done before me they've made a list of suck:

– How do you spend 258 million on this movie when the graphics from the first two were better?

-Harry is in the hospital badly beaten and what does he say, "I bumped my head. Oh hey my dad died too." What the hell was that? probably the first part I started hating this movie.

-The same type of grenade that kills venom and blows up half of sandmans face, only scars half of harrys face…..

-Again the butler.

– Convienent sand truck in NY for Sandman to use

-Did everyone seem to forget about the crane swinging around half of a block destroying skyscrapers?

-Harry uses a snowboard and a paintball mask, when he has the way cooler looking stuff from the first 2.

– When venom is about to stab spiderman with the snowboard, harry jumps in front, instead of just stopping venom…

along with all the other stuff you guys said this movie sucked extremely bad

this movie sucks!!
the trailer was too different

!
This film is reportedly the most expensive film ever made in U.S. dollars, with a budget of $250 million. This breaks King Kong (2005)’s record of $207 million, and in terms of adjusted dollars, would be third to Voyna i mir (1968)’s budget of $560 million.
!

Obviously I'm here because I feel that the movie sucked. I dont know what the 258 million was used for either. But along with the other complaints in this message board, there was something else that really boggled my mind.

So the NEW GOBLIN wants to avenge his daddy's death. Instead of doing what a Super Villain does, he decides to accomplish this by playing emotional games with spidey…"Mary-Jane break up with Parker". Thats real sad. Good thing his dad wasn't alive to see what a mess his successor has made.

And the acting was horrendous. Any scene that involved Parker crying created a wave of laughter in the audience. Very very pathetic. Not every creation has to have a trilogy. Know when to stop….

The movie it's still to come in Slovenia, but i think i'll rather go drink out with my friends than go to the movies because this film…if it so lame….unfortunately, many more will go to see it and discover what you said here. Thanx for saved me a dissappointment…

i have also come to the conclusion that raimi probably isnt to blame but the studios and marvel that pushed him to include too many things in this movie, since it was the last of the original 3 movie contract. im going to start looking for more indie, low budget films that dont try to target the .03% 5 year old emo demographic. way too greedy, i even think they signed on up to Spiderman 6.

p.s. a friend of mine also pointed out the horrible propaganda of the american flag and fighting the "sandman" reflecting the middle east. also hating that french guy didnt help.

more more more complaints:

-Symbiote might make you evil but it doenst dye your hair black.

-why did sandman escape in a storm drain after robbing a bank, hes sandman… he was fine killing cops earler.

-why does peter keep waking up everyone in the middle of the night.

-also why is everyone always out so late, in the final scene theres little kids, a whole audience watching when its like 2 am. theres also cops and firemen in the crowd, not doing their job like pushing them back so a taxi doesnt fall on them. where are those little kids parents for god sake.

– finally seeing parkers crying pudgy face on a huge imax screen has made me annorexic.

I was wondering where the hell was his spider sence.
This movie sucked!

The movie mad me almost physically ill. They totally fucked up the coolest part of spider man ever, the venom suit. I know it seems picky and fanboyish to say "the venom suit didn't look right", but would it really have been so hard to keep the suit smooth and liquidy looking like it does IN EVERY COMICBOOK EVER? why did sam rami, who i respected until seeing this film have to go and reinvent the wheel. spiderman is popular because he's spider man, you don't have to add any glitter to him, don't mess with a good thing you asshole. so, spidey's black suit looked stupid and they way it "turns him evil" by making him a broadway dance scene loving emo jerk is about the biggest joke i've ever seen. also, the character of venom was barely in it, despite the fact that he has such a great story. and then, on top of all of this, the acting was terrible, the cinematography was pretty shoddy (tons of really bad handheld shots that made me feel dizzy and like i was going to puke. as a fresh out of school filmmaker this sorta crap makes me so angry. why why why do we continue to let shitty shitty films get made when theres tons of young, talented filmmakers that actually care about the story and more importantly THE PEOPLE seeing the films? i've said it before and i'll say it again, fucking fuck hollywood in its fucking ass. same goes for kristin cunts too.

It was good, you guys are losers who need to get a life instead of criticizing an awesome movie…

i searched for the same thing as well. i am not laughing. Venom was the reason i got into spider-man at the age of five, i have loyally followed the "amazing" story line ever since i am 21 now. also i collected venom when he had his own series. Sam evidently did not care about this character, which is funny because that character is the reason he's making so much money off this abomination. I AM SO PISSED!! THEY F*CKING DISINTEGRATED EDDIE BROCK!! AAAAAARRRRGHHHH i am heart broken that no fan will ever see venom (or carnage now for that matter) on the screen for more than the last tenth of this movie…ever ever again. nor will we see spider-man and venom team up to stop carnage, or any other of the outstanding story lines that already exist as source material that this director delighted in ignoring while indulging in his ridiculous fantasy turning my childhood hero(spider-man)into a fucking britney spears back up dancer. what an asshole, i hope he rots in hell. oh, and i posted this already i just need more people to know how i feel.

Now I realize that we`ve been wrong all this time… the venom suit doesn`t turn you evil, it makes you dance! symbiote boogie nights…yeah! sorry guys… I really think this movie affected me… damn you raimi! he should have wraned us that this was going to be a parody of spiderman like epic movie, and damn even this stupid movie was better than spiderman 3! cause no one cared about it

Oh wow. OH wow. How can a movie suck this bad? I mean, it could just suck just a little bit, or just sorta suck… but damn.. this movie is really really bad. Even Batman and Robin(remember that one, folks?) was better than this movie. Christ, I feel pissed off even just thinking about it.

spiderman 3 did suck!
i didnt get why eddie brock was a "new" freelance photographer at the daily bugle. i remember in spiderman 1 peter parker asks JJ for a job and he says he already has a photographer named eddie brock.
also why couldn't the black costume shape shift? it was treated just like a regular cloth costume.
however if they do make a spiderman 4 there could still be a carnage, because peter's professor still has a lilt live sample of the symbiote.

What happened? I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I though I was watcing Batman and Robin. Yes they have killed it and the bad part is that with the money SP3 is making, they will only make another. Please let it die unless your script makes sense. They killed it, they killed it …. I T ' S O V E R

As soon as the dance scene in the jazz club started, I felt that was a good time to go to the restroom. I WANT MY MONEY BACK! I wanted Tom Hanks to show up somewhere in the movie and say "Are you crying! There's no crying in Spiderman"

what the hell was all that about when Parker was at the Jazz Bar. I personally think they could of done away with that scene and the director could of find another way Parker could of slapped Mary Jane. 80% of the movie was boring.

The movie is so bad that I can't believe the same director made first two…No need to add anything else when people before me already said everything. Btw, nice blog, found it searching for "Spiderman 3 sucks" :)

it sucked

Worst. Screenplay. Ever.

I just wanted to add more reasons why the movie sucked.
Symbiote spiderman's suit is stored in a chest (it's supposed to just shifted into normal wear)
Symbiote spiderman just decides to go a church, in the bell tower, where Eddie Brock just happens to go to pray for the death of Peter Parker.
-Eddie Brock is not a tough guy, but evil eric from "That 70's show".(And I like Topher Grace, just don't fuck with Venom)
-They removed the cool white splash on Venom
-Venom does not talk in third person
Not to mention that they pulled a Phoenix on the symbiote/Venom story by over simplifying a damn good story.

Oh and did anyone else think that the actor for sandman, should of been Venom? At least he was buff….

Tell me about it!

The next one can be called "save the girl four" Saving Mary Janes ass all the time is beyond old. Can we ever have a movie without emotional horse crap. Humans have feelings, emotional baggage, and love interests but they also have to shit and piss, do we really need to see it. Just once I would like to see a movie with an deep and interesting storyline without the soap opera.

Bravo. Could not have said it better myself. This was a colossal disappointment, especially considering the astonishing greatness of the first two movies. They really "Batman Forever'ed" this one! (What is it about the 3rd movie in Superhero series where everything always has to go down the proverbial toilet???)

umm yeah i spent my cinco de mayo time at the movie theatre and what a mistake it was, im sittin at home relaxin and seein spidey commercials comin on and it made me go see it so i did and despite the rumors i heard about it sucking i paid it no mind cuz people told me the same thing about superman returns and my god superman was sooo much beter than this, it was like reading a comic or something this movie just made no sense whatsoever, tobey is a fag to begin with i mean i was so sick of seein him cry and make those goofy ass faces and then you kno turning into jim carrey from the mask dancin on tables and what not, i mean what goes on? i love all the spidermans up til this one and ive been waitin for this one the most and they didnt deliver and it pisses me off to no end, thats 1 thing about the movie industry that i hate, they'll make ne piece of crap to make a dollar cuz they kno that people will b pumped up and waitin for the next 1 cuz all they need is 1 nite to make over 300 million dollars and b rich for the rest of their lives not even caring that we're payin hard earned to go watch these assholes on screen not givin muff cuz they're still gettin paid regardless, oo well if they come out with another 1 which they're suppose to do they better step it up cuz that shit sucked oo and foreman better go back to the basement cuz his performance wasnt so swell, i mean its so funny like topher grace is a skinny lil guy and then when he turns into venom he puts on like 20lbs of muscle all of a sudden i mean i could go on and on about this movie suckin but im done it pisses me off just talkin about it…well at least the jackass crew never lets you down on the big screen they always deliver…fuck spiderman 3

Why questions about spiderman 3

why was tobey dancing?

why the fuck was he cryin all the time?

why was venom only in it for 15 fuckin minutes?

why did we have to keep seein the back story about the sandman?
so we can all of a sudden feel bad for him and what not i mean he's not dead he's still bein sand guy around ny i mean what the fuck is he and spiderman gonna team up and take on other villains in the next 1?

there was so many things that went wrong with this movie i just cant get over it, how can you fuck this up, people have been amped to see this for so long i mean its just so sad, and the funny thing is that they think they did a good job cuz they broke records n shit.

why was eric foreman cast to play venom?

why were they trying to make this movie a comedy?

why did harry have to act like a complete fuckin pussy after he " bumped his head"?

i dont kno who made more stupid goofier faces toby or harry
and yeah harry's face gear was pretty gay

and kirsten dunst really had no reason to even b in this movie all her scenes were gay she was either crying bitchin or screaming

in the end this whole movie was predictable i mean i wasnt shocked at all when harry comes in and saves his buddy peter u saw that comin but dammit this movie sucked what a waste such a shame i mean stan lee shouldnt stepped in and told em that this just isnt goin to work i dont think in his comics spiderman is dancin on tables and tryin to b fuckin patrick swayze in dirty dancin, i hate to keep sayin shit but i was lookin forward to this movin it was my summer movie that i was goin to enjoy and i was sure as hell fuckin wrong but it just almost figures as much i mean in x3 i was kinda mad but not as disappointed in the movie as much as i am with this one i mean they had like 2 plus years to make this the best spidey ever especially when ur puttin venom of all characters to life and they fucked it up royally and i hope that every1 who ever sees tobey n all them make them feeel like shit for makin such a beat ass flick i hope they never work in this town again..

Someone should steal all the money back. This movie does not deserve to be breaking box-office records. For SHAME!

If ever you want me to reveal secrets only our gouverment knows about, tie me up eyes glued open to watch Spiderman 3 again. I will come clean about weapons of mass destruction…

i also found this site by googling 'spiderman3 sucks'.
i read the novelazation of this 'thing' a week before it came out. i assumed the movie would be better. luckily i caught it on a website that had a bootleg of it, and let me tell u that it was the first time in my life where a book made from a movie was better. i have no plans to see it in the theatre now. the book had plot, Norman Osborne is in it thruout the story, the scene in the jazz club did have gay dancing but then Peter had a 'fight' with the bouncers. kicking the shit out of almost everyone in the club.
yet u still have the 'sandman really killed uncle ben' bullshit which makes no sense b/c letting Carridine get away in the first movie and shoot Uncle Ben is the REASON he became spiderman. DUH!!
i figured the movie would focus on sandman and harry. then venom would be created at the end which would set up the fourth film. of course i was very very wrong.
why is Gwen Stacy in this film? if your gonna have MJ replace Gwen in the first movie than u dont need this other character.
and what the hell did happen to that crane? he saves Gwen from falling then has a chit chat with Brock about how fat he looks??
the black suit is supposed to change into any outfit Peter wills, so why is it in a trunk? wow theres just so much more plot development in the book that it would take me hours to write it all. lol.
this movie was rushed. like the Star Wars films they tried to jam too much material into 2 hours. the film seemed to take place over a course of three days. why does Venom ask spiderman if he "remembers what u did to me?" yea we remember we seen it 20 minutes ago. and when i read the book i pictured the end fight scene during the day. who is watching 'breaking news' in the middle of the night. and how u gonna write a message to spiderman in your web if its dark out and expect anyone to see it?
eddie brock is suppposed to be a big guy like Flash Thompson, not some skinny reject from that 70s show who sounds like the pimply teenager on The Simpsons.
the new Fantastic 4 movie looks like itll be good but im assuming that merley b/c im familiar with the story-line in the comics. but after seeing what they did with venom im not holding my breathe. probably gonna be some fucked up dogshit like they did with Dr Doom.
take my advice, take out your old comics and read them. i read the "real" death of Harry Osborne yesterday. that comic book had more plot.

first of all im not an american so if you find my english seems dull forgive me.
i knew it! i predicted from the day that spidey 3 came out there are a lot of people will criticize it as a crap! thats why i google it as SPIDERMAN 3 SUCKS. voila! i came to this site and i am fucking right!

we have our own way of thinking and we should respect it. i saw S3 last thursday may 3 and as far as im concerned and the movie is so awesome and i love it. PEOPLE can u be specific for giving comments! i mean what are the things you dont like? is it the special effects? is it the comic story didnt match the movie? is it the story? is it kirsten dunst? is it the dancing moves of tobey (which you may think it's corny)? is it you dont want james franco to be dead(bec hes so handsome in the movie : ))? or is it just you cant take it that spidey breaks the record of the pirates of the caribbean(bec ur a huge fan of the movie)?

COME ON people! lets accept it! 8 out of 10 people love the movie. if one of your reasons is same that i mentioned above then get life! move on! if you really dont like spiderman 3 and for YOU its not worth to be where it is now…... then go make a film! MAKE YOUR OWN SPIDERMAN 3 Movie and please make sure people will love it same way as sam raimi made it.

you (antispidey) talk much shit! do you have$258 million to make a film? just shut up!

u know if you bothered to read one of the almost 100 comments on this page u could see the specific reason we dislike the film.

Truth be told. I fell asleep and found myself snoring in the theater. My friends had to wake me up several times! (During an action sequence!) Eventually I just rolled over in my seat, pulled up my hoodie, and caught some Z's! What a horrible disaster!! R.I.P. SPIDEY!!

i know how to read michael scofield! i have read all the comments and it all falls where all of you antisamraimi is against the story and you expect more than the movie and the venom thing. i know you knew it! even before the showing of spiderman3 just like the 2 previous movie that it will not follow the comic story…. then why did you watched it? HELLO! just to criticize? loser! you really wasted your money and that should be a lesson learned!

now that you already find out that the story doesnt follow the comic story then stop watching spidey movie! stop making noise!
leave spidey 3 movie alone! keep on buying spidey comics!

SAVE YOUR MONEY!

I just seen this movie, downloaded it, thank god. After reading all the shit, on this film, I didn't waste any money on it.

The movie was such a let down, it felt so rushed and none of the scenes really made since at all.
Like when Peter and MJ are laying in that webbed hammock out in the woods and just out of no where a meteor falls and just happens to be when spiderman is out there and it gets on his scooter, or the ridiculous scene where Peter sneaks off and starts to play the piano, then his all cocky and cool with his evil suite and emo bangs, while hes making that dumb girl in his apartment make all this crap for em, and pretends to listen to his teacher on the phone. all those scenes where just so stupid. It honestly felt like someone took 3 movies, each with one villian, and cut 15 minutes out of them and spliced them together to make one film. The film should have included the harry plot, with the exclusion of the butler, and either went with one other villian, such as venom, which I would want b/c i'm a fan of. or the sandman, but for god sakes to throw them out in there, with a rushed and weak plot to tie it all together was just a shame.

How could they piss on Venom's character like that? He shows up in the last 20 minutes of the movie and dies! How the hell is Brock going to get back into the suit so Carnage can form? He deserves his own damn movie. I'm so fucking PO'd right now! Fuck this movie! Fuck McGuire, fuck Raimi and especially fuck Dunst. That hag couldn't act her way out of a paper bag. If they plan on making a 4th installment, then re-introduce Venom the right way and include the Black Cat this time!

marvel is beyond greed. go to imdb.com and type in marvel enterprises, they have about 8 new movies coming out in two years with only 1-2 looking good. by 2009 people will hate comic book movies and it will be the end of the era. marvel shot its own foot.

If Spiderman 3 followed this story line… I think it would have been much better.

How Spiderman 3 should have been (in my opinion):

1.Movie opens with Flint Marko escaping from prison. In his effort to escape, he climbs over a fence of a research facility. He keeps running and doesn’t see a sand pit where scientific tests are being conducted. Marko falls and gets trapped. By the miracle of science, he bonds with the sand in the pit and becomes Sandman.
2.Movie cuts to another scene. We find Harry in the shadows dealing with some hired thugs in a warehouse known where villains gather. His obsession drives him to look for criminals to kill Spiderman. Here we get cameos of Spiderman’s classic enemies.
3.Harry remains in the shadows and continues to look for someone to do the job. He gets interrupted by Sandman who walks in demanding for the “head” of the house. Still groggy from his transformation, he comes to look for a job. The rest of the villains gets pissed off and starts mocking Marko for trying to work with the “big boys”.
4.Sandman gets pissed off and shows off his powers by kicking the crap of some of the villains. Harry stops the fight and offers Sandman the job after being impressed with the Sandman’s prowess. Marko accepts.
5.Movie zooms out of the warehouse and moves to a different location in the city. Here we see Spiderman swinging through the city doing his aerial acrobatics. He is on his way to class but has a prearranged meeting with MJ. But Spidey spots a robbery and busts the criminals first. After apprehending the criminals, Spidey realizes that he’s almost running late to meet MJ, which he agreed to meet before class.
6.Spidey swings away and finds MJ rushing out of their agreed meeting place. Peter takes off his costume. Upon meeting MJ, MJ tells Peter that she has to go. Peter gets annoyed that MJ has to run off again. (MJ after all, is a successful theater person and recently lands a job in a tv soap now.) MJ gets angry at Peter for giving her hard time and tells him that he’s not exactly available all the time. MJ proposes to break up. Peter reluctantly agrees. Peter exists by saying that he has things to do.
7.As Peter exists, he runs in to Gwen Stacy. Gwen is his classmate who was just on her way to Empire State University. Peter begins talking to Gwen… who somehow managed to squeeze out the juicy information that he and MJ are over. Gwen is excited because she secretly likes Peter and saw this as an opportunity for her to snatch Peter for herself. She proposes a friendly date. Peter accepts oblivious to Gwen’s intensions.
8.Peter and Gwen montage starts showing how they got “closer” and “closer” during their many dates and class room flirting.
9.Montage eventually ends as it shows Peter and Gwen in one date where they eventually seal things with a kiss.
10.That gets interrupted as a huge riot starts developing around them. Peter shuffles to find out what’s going. One man eventually points him towards a television which a news reporter is saying that a crazed criminal, Sandman, is looking for Spiderman.
11.Peter then tells Gwen that he has to go. Gwen asks why and Peter explains that he has to get over where Sandman is to take pictures – his job after all- but a cover so that he can change into Spiderman to fight Sandman.
12.Spidey confronts the Sandman. At first he is winning, cracking jokes like no other. Underestimating his enemy, Sandman picks up the pace and begins pummeling Spidey. The fight continues until dark. Unable to match Sandman’s powers, Peter is beaten like he’s never been beaten before.
13.Sandman gives one final punch and punches Peter in to a thick forest like area. Peter unable to take anymore beating, hides in the think foliage.
14.Sandman continues his pursuit. He gets frustrated and gives up eventually.
15.Exhausted from his battle, Peter passes out in the forest like area. That same night, there is a meteor shower. One of these meteorites lands a few feet away from a blacked out Spiderman. It cracks open and a black substance oozes out…
16.The ooze appears to be alive and notices the passed out Spiderman. It bonds with Spiderman.
17.The black ooze begins to take shape and picks up Peter. It swings away to take Spidey into his apt. Somehow, the ooze knows everything about Peter after bonding with him. The ooze drops Peter off in his bed and morphs in to his normal clothing.
18.Spidey wakes up in a shock the morning after. Still feeling horrible after his fight, he is surprised that he finds himself in his room. He rationalizes that he must have been so wiped out that he didn’t remember swinging back to his apartment. He also begins to hear voices but ignores it thinking that it is the result of his fight.
19.Spidey remembers that he took pictures of his fight with Sandman and brings it to the Bugle to get some cash. There he meets Eddie Brock who beats him to it and gives Jonah a doctored picture of Spidey causing the destruction instead of Sandman. Jonah loves it since he’s been looking for such a picture.
20.Peter is overly upset but controls himself. Brock is overly cocky and mocks Peter for being an amateur. He continues to kiss J. Jonah Jameson’s butt who eventually offers Brock a job. Robinson steps in saying that if he is going to offer a job, he should offer it to Peter. Jameson disagreed saying that Brock is what the paper needed all along since he managed to give him a picture that he’s been wanting all this time – Spiderman exposed for what he is… a criminal! Peter leaves vowing that he can prove that Brock is a fake.
21.Movie fades to Harry meeting with the Sandman. Sandman wants his money but Harry refuses asking for the body in return. Sandman is frustrated but leaves to find Spiderman.
22.Still rather upset with the picture Brock provided, Spiderman swings angrily across the city still unaware of his living costume. While swinging he notices that he feels stronger and more powerful. He keeps hearing voices too. He eventually passes a group of thugs preying on a woman. Spidey steps in taking down one bad guy after another. Here we see how agile Spiderman really is. One manages to fire at Spiderman and hits him. The bullet gets absorbed by his living costume though and spits it out. Spiderman finally realizes that there is something unique about his costume and it begins to warp in to the black costume. Hearing voices… he is egged on to beat up the thug… after all, the thug tried to kill him like the burglar who killed his uncle. Angered by the thug, Peter lashes out and beats the man to a pulp. He stops himself at the last minute as he realizes his brutality. The police arrive and Spiderman flees. Strangely, Spidey admits that he enjoyed every minute of it and a voice in his head congratulates him. Peter embraces this and instantaneously forgets what just happened.
23.Overly confident and cocky, we see a transformation in Peter. He meets up with Gwen. He gives Brock’s picture to Gwen and asks her if he could give it to Captain Stacy (her dad) to check it for anomalies. They go on a date but he gets short with her a few times (rude too) for no reason. He exhibits the same behavior towards everyone else around him. This scared Gwen ands ask Peter to end their date early because she doesn’t quite like this “new” Peter. She said that she will contact Peter later and give his picture to her dad. Peter shrugs it off and goes to his Aunt May. He too was rude to Aunt May. Aunt may doesn’t take bull though… and scolds him. Aunt May recommends to Peter to search himself why he is so angry. This triggered Peter that something is wrong outside his control and he begins to realize that his living costume may have something to do with it. He goes back to his apartment and sees that he has mail. He opens it up. Inside is proof that Brock’s picture is a fake.
24.Peter then rushes to the Bugle and shows Jameson. JJ is so angry that he fires Brock on the spot. He promises Brock that he will never get a in the city ever again. Brock gets furious but Peter just stands in the corner smirking. Jonah offers the job to Peter.
25.Suddenly, the world is perfect again. Spidey is swinging around town and notices that he is beginning to lose control of himself and the voice in his head is getting stronger and stronger. During all this, Sandman catches a glimpse of Spidey and pursues him. Spidey unaware of his pursuer stops and perches on a ledge. There he ponders and make a decision to test his costume. He rips off a piece and goes to Dr. Curt Conners for help at Empire State University.
26.Conner is shocked to find Spiderman looking for him. Reluctant to help, Spidey convinces Conner to hear him out saying that Peter referred him. It is during this meeting with Conners that Spidey realizes that the costume is alive and dangerous. But before Spidey could do anything about it, Sandman bursts in the class room.
27.Connors is knocked unconscious. Sandman and Spidey begin to fight. This time around, Spidey’s powers are bolstered by the living costume and notices that the Sandman is not as powerful as he used to be. Spidey gets savage and beats Sandman very badly. Ultimately, Spiderman forces Sandman to tell him why he keeps attacking him. Sandman reveals that Harry sent him. Spidey then punches Sandman to a fountain nearby. Exhausted and defeated, Sandman couldn’t pull himself together and dissolves in the fountain.
28.Spidey revives Conners who is shocked by the destruction. He urges Spidey that he’ll be fine and he will take care of the police. In the meantime, he asks Spidey to take off the costume right away.
29.Instead, Spidey goes after Harry. When Spidey arrived at Harry’s mansion, Harry is dressed in the Goblin suit (revamped to resemble his father’s original but looks more like the comic book version). Spidey tries to plead with Harry for the last time that he didn’t kill Norman. Harry gets angry and fights Spidey. Harry puts up an amazing fight but Spidey eventually gets the upper hand. Because of Spidey’s anger and strength amplified by the living costume, he easily beats Harry to a bloody mess. As a last resort to kill Spidey, Harry throws a pumpkin bomb. Spidey dodges but his living costume responds by catching the bomb and flicking it back towards Harry. It lands on a shelf full of bombs next to Harry which ignited into a huge explosion. Spiderman get blown out. Spidey recovers and notices that everything is in ruins. He finds Harry under a pile of ruble. He picks up Harry and rushes him to a hospital. Meanwhile, the voice in his head is telling him to let Harry die. It tells Peter that it is the right thing to do. Harry has been a pain anyway. Peter waits in the hospital struggling with the voices until a doctor tells him that Harry is dead.
30.Peter swings away and stumbles on top of a church. Peter blames himself for Harry’s death. He then begins to hear voices telling him that what he did was the right thing to do. “Don’t worry about it,” it says. It then asks Peter to hunt down and kill more men of sin. Disturbed by the voices, Peter finally realizes that he must remove the costume now. He goes inside and tries to remove the costume but it refuses. As he struggles, he hits the bell by accident and realizes that high pitch noise disrupts the living costume. He continues to ring the bell. Eventually, the living costume oozes off. In the church, we find Eddie Brock pleading to God for help… even asking to punish Peter for his sins against him. While kneeling, we see the ooze moving towards Eddie attracted to Eddie’s anger especially about his anger for Peter. The ooze violently bonds with Eddie. Camera fades to black and we see a silhouette of Venom.
31.New scene cuts in and we see Spidey with friends (Gwen, MJ, Aunt May, etc.) in a funeral for Harry. Peter says his final goodbyes to Harry and walks away.
32.We then see a familiar figure walking towards the grave. The man says, “Oh Harry, you have always been a weak boy.” He continues his rant saying that even at his death, he is disappointed. The camera then moves to reveal Norman Osborn alive and well, bragging that he will kill Spiderman where Harry failed.

MOVIE ENDS – sets up for Spiderman 4 – Venom being lead bad guy and Norman working in the shadows just like in the comics. Gwen is now Peter’s GF setting up for her death in the fourth movie which Norman will recreate the bridge scene where Gwen falls to her death (to somewhat correct the mistake of the first Spiderman movie). Here we will see that Gwen and MJ are actually good friends not estranged like the movie portrayed. And to keep thinks somewhat accurate, Peter gets back with MJ after the death of Gwen.

**WARNING – DO NOT READ IF U HAVENT SEEN THE MOVIE (and still plan to)
p.s. – save your money
p.p.s. – feel free to add your own comments and the end and reply. I am a Spidey completist so i want the DEFINITIVE list! LOL

1. Kirsten Dunst singing. Twice. Really.

2. Meteorite falls from the sky and lands 15 feet (!) from Spiderman. You can't HEAR a meteor hitting the ground?

3. No Spidey-sense. In the entire movie. (see above)

4. 3 supermodel scientists (?) are running a scientific test on sand (??) in the middle of New York (?!?).......with no walls/fences/ANYTHING around the building (??) and a DUDE FALLS IN…...and they think its a bird. (??!?) Its a comic book movie….you can make up ANYTHING YOU WANT….and this is the best you could do?

4. Sandman looks like Terminator 2 meets The Mummy Returns meets Norbit (not really that good)

5. A loose crane is FUCKING UP New York. Spider-man swings in to save the day, slowly lowers super hot chick w big cans (best part of movie btw) to the ground, and takes off…....um, spidey, WHAT ABOUT THE FUCKING CRANE???

6. Spiderman doesnt tell one joke in the movie. (he IS funny…..unintentionally. more on that later). he does however CRY 3 TIMES.

7. So…..SANDMAN killed uncle Ben??!! This ruins the entire reason Peter Parker IS Spiderman i.e. he didnt fulfill his responsibility, and his Uncle died. Cheap throwaway of THE ESSENTIAL PIECE of the Mythos. For no reason. Ugh.

8. Sandman FLIES AROUND NEW YORK. WHA? WHA?!? Sandman can FLY? Oh, except when he robs a bank. THEN he goes in the sewers. (dying inside at this point of the movie).

9. Apparently, the alien symbiote makes you a BAD-ASS…...............piano player?

10….......................................... Jazz dancer?

11. Emo haircut / hairflip / eyeliner. Missed that one in the comics. Apparently they mixed up "Flint Marko Marvel Sandman" with "Neil Gaiman Vertigo Sandman".

12. Peter Parker struts down the New York street a la John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever. I thought all the chicks in the movie were laughing at him….....apparently it was just the people in the theatre.

13. "Go make me some cookies. With nuts in them" ???!

14. The following conversation must have taken place offscreen. Its the only way I can have this part make sense.

"MJ, I am the Goblin, and you will help me exact my revenge on Spiderman!

"Are you going to kill him? Maim him? Please don't hurt me!"

"Nah…....I'm just going to have you break up with him. Thats it.

"OK…..I guess ill just forget to call him later and tell him I didnt mean it"

"Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!"

16. [kneeling in church] "Dear God…......please kill Peter Parker" best. line. evar.

17. "Hey, Sandman, Im Venom, never met you before, but wanna team up and kill Spiderman? I mean, that should help your sick daughter weve been hearing about the whole movie, you know?"

18. "Hey Harry, I know I just blew half of your face off and MJ kicked you to the curb, and you want to kill me and all, but…..can you give me a hand?" (see also…....goblins bombs TOTALLY FUCK UP the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man (errrrr Sandman) but a bomb to the FACE doesn't kill him?)

19. "In my spare time not being your butler Ive been studying CSI and i can tell you from my extensive research that those blade wounds DEFINITELY mean your father killed himself" ???!......................................................totally spechless

20. OK, so I'm Venom, and I love Gwen Stacey, but she dumped me for Peter Parker, and i REALLY want revenge so im gonna kidnap….........................Mary Jane? Not Gwen? Why the fuck is Captain Stacey in the movie then? How does Brock even know about MJ? The Black Costume? Spidey didnt LIKE MJ when he wore the Black costume. (totally confused now)

21. Apparently wind chimes and/or xylophones are enough to take down Venom. DOH!

22. "I forgive you Sandman" best. line. evar. part deux. cue FLYING SAND

not to mention the usual CGI-moving-so-fast-you-cant-tell-WTF-is-happening-a-la-George-Lucas, upside-down kiss (in front of MJ? the day before you are going to propose? REALLY?), 2.5 hr boring run time, omelette dropping, AMERICAN FLAG SCENE….so so many TERRIBLE parts i cant help but think they made this movie for the toy rights and to sell Blu-Ray discs. After Spiderman 2 I was totally disappointed.

They did get 2 things right tho:

Spidey DOES NOT GET MARRIED! YAY!

Spidey DOES NOT HAVE A BABY! YAY # 2! Superman Returns=MUCH better movie tho…..and that makes me a sad panda :(

btw the spiderman movie ideas above are spot on perfect and i want to see that movie instead.

Here are my feelings on the subject:

Patrick Gatdula: I think that your movie ideas are fantastic and would have made a movie millions of times better than the shitfest showing now. how sad is it that some random internet denizen can come up with a better screenplay than people who get paid to do it? i think, very sad indeed.

i would make a few changes to your script though.
-perhaps the sandman genesis scene could be changed such that the scientists were aware of marko in their test area but they had just started the test and the system couldn't be shut down quick enough to save him.
-the symbiote meteorite is still a little too coincidental for me. i'm sure a scene where a spaceship comes back with the black stuff could be included, then sandman and spiderman fight near its landing zone, with spiderman saving the astronauts and inadvertently getting some symbiote on him.
-also, brock being at the same church as spiderman also seems contrived. how about brock wanted to redeem himself by following and taking pictures of spiderman, then happened to get the symbiote on him when spidey got it off.

on the day of the premiere, i told my friend i wasn't interested in watching spiderman 3 in the cinema and she was taken aback. she kept insisting that it had to be good because of its popularity and hype, to the point that i almost got taken in. decided to download it instead and i was surprised, but not pleasantly. it turned out to be even shittier than i predicted. there were so many 'what the fuck?!' moments that i actually stopped and considered giving up halfway, but i persevered, hoping that there would be one final saving grace of seeing venom in action….and i was completely and utterly let down.

Patrick you're a genious…...

Spider-Man 3 sucked. I loved the first 2 films, but not this one. I was so excited to see this movie and when I finally did, what a major dissapointment. It's like Sam Raimi turned a Spider-Man movie into some artistic drama. I know the first 2 films had drama, but it still felt like a SUPERHERO movie. This movie did not have the feel of a superhero movie, but more of an emotional moral story with repetetive action thrown in. It might have nice computer graphics and be well filmed, but it is simply not that fun of a movie. And the #1 rule in a superhero film is that it is adventurous fun. This film was not that. This is the #1 dissapointment of the year.

I totally agree w/ you. This movies both sux and blows at the same time. The origin of Venom was ALL OFF, you to see Venom for a grand total of 20 minutes maybe near the end, and it's horribly done. You spend most of the movie, as you said, watching bad spidey wear suit and you have to sit through all this love drama crap the whole time. In the comics, the saga of the symbiote and Venom as something that went on for over 20 years. I watched the movie yesterday, and they already messed up the whole Venom story. In the comics, Venom is Spidey's #1 arch-nemesis. His origin is ALL WRONG, and they picced that nerdy lil' Topher Grace kid from That 70's Show to play a character that's like 6'3'', 230lbs in the comics. _ I think that kid is like 5'9'' and looks like he weighs 130lbs soakin' wet. Spidey and Venom fight ONE TIME in the movie, while they fight 100's of times over years and years of battles in the comics. They didn't even go into detail enough in the movie to explain just how much they hated each other, why, and just how much Spidey is fearful of the more-powerful-than-he-is Venom. The movie sux if ur a Venom fan. It's all wrong. Total crap. I was highly disappointed w/ the movie. >.

The idea of killing off Venom in the movie was ridiculous. I don't who wrote that crap, but they need to be slapped. In the comics, Spidey couldn't beat Venom. At all. Hell, they had a DC/Marvel Crossover event once where Venom beat the hell outta Superman. xD BUT NO! Tobey McGwire fights Topher Grace to the death in the movie version.. the most unbelievably stupid Spider-Man/Venom fight situation I could have dreamed up. I'm amazed. I grew up loving Venom, and seeing "Eric" play him and get killed as him at the end was unreal to me. I almost expected Ashton Kutcher to jump out and the end and tell me I'd gotten punked. >.

To all of you who think the pain is over, you have indeed underestimated the corporate greed of production companies and distributors. If you think there will be a 4, 5 and 6, right you are Ken, at least Sony and marvel seem to think so. Of course none of the main cast has actually signed or renewed their contracts, but I NEVER underestimate the regenerative aptitudes of the capitalist system. Which brings me to my second subject in this discussion.

Many of you might not agree and those of you who think the movie is good are entitled to your opinion, but you’re wrong. I believe that this film is essentially an attempt at mirroring recent events and the social conditions that the U.S.A has known in these recent years. Here are my observations:

1-Spider-Man is often referred to as a hero much like the “soldier” and he bears the U.S colors only when he is “in uniform”. For me, Spider-Man is “The Man”.
2-Sandman represents the archetype of the American Army in Iraq. “We know we fucked up, we shouldn’t be here, we’ve done some killing and now we ask forgiveness” translates to Sandman “fucked up by accidentally killing Uncle Ben ( which relates to the “families” back home) feels bad after being confronted and then asks forgiveness from the “hero” in no other place than New-York> 9/11 anyone?
3-Which brings me to Venom…The unknown, alien life form that has no identity, or who is seemingly everywhere and everyone and who invades a host without permission represents the “unseen face of the so called terrorists”.
4-It takes the “sands and the unknown threat” to beat down the Man.
5-Then along comes a spider’s foe, none other than Harry Osborn himself. He represents the democrats.
6-Harry joins his friend again after a long disagreement and helps out his republican government even if he disagrees with him. Together, they fight and beat the “invaders”.
7-Come on! Says you. This is a little pushed!
8-Really? Says I. Then why was their a 5 second (plus 1 second momentary freeze frame) with “the Man” standing in front of his flag all proud and matching with it too? Coincidence?
9-The little speech at the end “We have to forgive what we did to ourselves, my friend Harry taught me that.” Suggestive echoes of a current era.
10- The little conditioning propaganda at the end with the priceless “You always have the choice to do what’s right”. Really that was not so fresh. I mean Sergei Eisenstein would be proud of you Raimi brothers. Way to “teach” us how to think…I mean wow I needed to be told by your awesome all knowing authority.

Now on a lighter note.

Whenever the fuck hell did Stan Lee lose his pants? I know you’re like 840 years old Yoda, but put on some pants that can contain your saggy balls and stick it to those fuckers at Sony! Do you realize how many loyal fans want a refund? No you don’t because as Visconti said once: “movies are the only business where you get the money first and the service second.” Everyone here is incredibly disappointed and bad news travels fast, I hope you have express tickets motherfucker. Mark my words and mark them fuckaliciously well, if you fuck up The Punisher 2 I swear to on the head of my first pet, Goldie the goldfish, I will infiltrate your sorry ass company and fucking blow your balless sack to hell! I feel like ending this on a good note, so here is my advice, STICK TO THE MOTHA FUCKING COMICS YOU FUCK MOTHER WHORE SLUTTY BANG BANG GOLD DIGGING BOOTY SLUTS!

P.S Hey Stan…you actually approved 4,5 and 6? Hot Damn man…here is some of your own bullshit to sniff, follow your bliss bitch “You always have the choice to do what’s right” which here really translates essentially into: STICK TO THE MOTHA FUCKING COMICS YOU FUCK MOTHER WHORE SLUTTY BANG BANG GOLD DIGGING BOOTY SLUTS! Don’t be a slave to the machine you tool!

First time visit and post here (wave)

I have only just come out of the cinema and I need to talk about it.

A little background; I like to think that I can be pretty impartial at best and as constructively critical as possible at worst as I work with a lot of struggling writers and am often the self-appointed cheer leader sans Pompoms so I know that taking a creative work down for the sake of it doesn't help anyone. My marvel fan-boy days died in the 80s along with most of my childhood- but the memories of the emotions involved are still with me.

Now
I've sat through the various rehashes and felt overall they've been entertaining in every example, some to a lesser degree than others, and I think all added some unique twists for a new audience and the give-it-to-me-now requirements of the medium we're talking about, but none SUCKED…

Until now.

Spiderman 3 sucked watermelons through a straw; and that's a powerful vacuum cleaner let me tell ya! But why?

After talk to my wife, who is not a fan of the comics but a fan of the Marvel movies on the whole, we agreed that there were lots of cool scenes. This part or that part was good. Lots of memorable, funny and moving sections...

But the whole was a hole dear readers.

I'll be looking at the editor and finding out more about what's been mentioned in the comments so far, because someone's name should be plastered on a wall for the creative murder (or should that be slow torture?) of this movie.

I agree with all of you, when the movie ended i was in denial and said that the movie was awesome. The more I thought about it the more i got pissed off because it didnt make sense to me that they could ruin a movie that had so much potential.I feel insulted as a fan because the movie was like a big slap in the face from Raimi. In my eyes this movie was him saying "you want venom ill give you venom" and fucked it up on purpose. What a dick. This could have been by far the geatest movie of the year. Way to go asshole.

Did anyone else notice that Peter had the bottom of his shirt ripped off in one of the scenes (not as Spiderman).. He was very flabby? Did any of the producers miss this… or just not care? I though peter was suppose to be buffed up spider man.. :)

I guess he only grows muscles when he puts on the costume..

vote for spiderman 3 on imdb
1/10

does anyone know for sure if Raimi is going to do a #4? and whether or not Emo McGuire will be re-signing a contract?

Oh god so much hate! I hope someday somewhere someone throws a turd to sam reimi`s face just to let him now how we feel, i can still taste the crap since I saw this movie, and no I can`t get over it, he ruined venom for christ`s sake! I thought topher grace was hired to play a dramatic role, not to replay one episode of that seventies show! pure crap!

WHAT IS WRONG WITH EVERYBODY! SPIDERMAN 3 is totally awesome!

venom rocks he kicks doctor octopus' ass big time!
the musical scenes where hilarious! and… and….

oh hell, nevermind… I can't keep a straight face…

it totally sucks…. almost as bad as epic movie…

Raimi is Dead(ite) to me…. I'm sticking with Batman from now on

I really thought that spider-man 3 was going to be the best film yet, I just got back of watching it on may 14 election day on our country. My whole family came to watch it, while my parents were like kids when watching these kind of flicks the two of us, me and my brother were really pissed!, I mean sandman just waiving goodbye to spidey wtf is that anyway?

Is that what will become to all marvel and dc characters. I mean batman sucked bigtime at it's third movie and the batman 4 sucked some more. And my dreams of X-men as being one of the best comic based movie had died when I saw the first installment.

Shoud we wait for another crappy ass movie like that to happen? H-E-L-L NO We should do something about this, I am really serious guys and girls. I am tired of being
a$$ f-u-c-k-e-d by producers, directors or all of them combined. Let's do something I mean anything I know I'm just some guy in the Phillipines who can't do much but write this comment but you people out there, If you really care for all of your heroes in the DC and Marvel Universe or anyother character out there you should do something, anything! The people who were behind spider-man 3 and all the crappy ass movies that they made us see should suffer Don't let this kind of crap ruin your most favorite hero. It could be Flash, Captain America or your favorite hero (insert Marvel or DC Character), it could be anyone so act now!email me if you wish to do something about it at maliciousai@gmail.com this is not a "joke" to many superheroes have died in thier hands.

Yeah, it sucks
