So Spider-Man 2 was good stuff. And I felt I should talk about it, complete with big juicy spoilers.

Sure, some of the love scenes were ridiculously slow and awkward – but isn’t that what love is really like!?! (someone answer that for me, since I personally have no idea) But Doc Ock’s straight up PIMPNESS, the elevator scene, the “Rain Drops Keep Falling On My Head” scene, and Ashy Larry’s guest appearance more than balanced that out. Plus, the Alex Ross bits at the beginning were so very nice as well.

Best comic book movie EVAR? …hard to say. But definitely possible, in my book. I’ll have to get my paws on X2 and Batman again to make the call, while Spider-Man 2 is still fresh in my mind.

EDIT: Whoops – I was supposed to sneak this in when I mentioned Batman. But here’s some interesting pictures I found on the Batman Begins site, which I refresh every thirty seconds. (All open in same new window!) Christian Bale (those curved ears are kinda weird…), Morgan Freeman (Lucius Fox), Gary Oldman (Lt. Gordon), Michael Caine (Alfred), and Liam Neeson (Henri Ducard – no idea who that is).

And I’m officially calling it – Venom AND Green Goblin for the next one. John Jameson will be Venom, and the alien suit will make its appearance as some random goop stuck to the side of NASA/Oscorp’s new experimental spacecraft. The first scene of the movie will feature John Jameson crash landing the ship in New York, and needing rescuing from Spider-Man. Who then either touches or bleeds upon the alien goop while saving the ship, the gook becomes spider goop, bonds with Jameson somehow, drives him insane, and VOLIA – Venom! Or maybe have Spidey run around a bit with the new suit first. Either way, I’m a genius. So remember – I’m calling it. When you see all this stuff in Spider-Man 3, remember this post. However, I feel that it is only fair to remind you that I think I officially called that the 2003 Blue Jays would make the playoffs.

But I’m pretty happy with 2 – even if they left out guys like Venom or Electro or Mysterio…I wouldn’t really mind. But oh man…imagine if they had Captain America…

How convenient for me then, that a Spider-Man & Captain America movie has already been made! Except that it’s Turkish. And that it’s more like Spider-Man VS. Captain America. And that Spidey is apparently a “sadistic evil villain.” Seriously. No kiddin’.

Why, Spider-Man? Why? My favourite part’s gotta be the bit with the woman in the shower – Spider-Man’s handing out rape dollars as if money ain’t a thang. It’s brilliant stuff. So let me just say…if you don’t think this is the greatest movie ever…I will fight you. That’s no lie.

NOW ON TO ANCHORMAN!!!
