Spidey 2...

Jul. 1st, 2004 07:20 am
Any movie that can make me gasp as many times as that movie did.... Wow. It didn't suck me in the same way the first one did but I was right along with that woman who said, "Go, Spidey, Go!"

I love Peter Parker. The reason I love him is that it sucks to be Peter Parker. A whole hell of a lot. He has his moments of indecision and uncertainty and sometimes he loses the path. The thing is, and this is the part of him I love the most, he just gets right back up and takes whatever life dishes out at him. Yes, he has his moments out doubt but that's because he's human and no one has ever managed to /always/ do the right thing.

Doc Ock was great. I like how they built him up into a person. I actually wanted more of that. I wanted more of the conversations between him and Peter. Go Aunt May! Whoa Harry! Such the face at the wedding, even if it was only for a few moments.

The only person I wanted more from than I got in this movie was MJ. Kirsten Dunst can do better than this, I think.

I want to see it again for the bank fight and the train fight and all of those classic Spidey poses done so perfectly. There were places where the CG was obvious but it was never pull me out of the movie obvious like in the Matrix.

All in all - go see it! GO! Now!

Oh. Goos morning. I need more sleep.
So far the clouds/fog hasn't burned off at all. With how fast it was disappeareing further north I expected there to be a bent in it down here by now. How... strange.

*eyebrow arch*

Anyway.... Stuff I should be doing.

Damn it.

I just spit tea on my monitor and almost through my nose.

Let me tell you why.

Fight Club the Musical.

Seriously.

Apparently Chuck Palnihuk did a reading at UW last night and fielded a question about it.

Now, we get to the part where there was projectile tea.

David Fincher and Trent Reznor are apparently in negotiations. (If it ever gets off of the ground, mind you. There is funding... and... not much else.)

To quote the source: "Chuck went on to say that most of the stuff they do with his writing he doesn't care about; he says he can't really control how the studios fuck with his characters or themes, so he just accepts the checks and goes on his way... BUT, he did say that he'd be personally involved in just about anything if he got to work with both Reznor and Fincher on the project (he said he'd even do "Fight Club on Ice" if that's what it took)."

Now, I never expect this to see the light of day but the sheer idea of it... I had to share - for laughs or for ... whatever else this could inspire.
