    Podcast is always great so I can't agree there (full disclosure - I wanted them to do Temptation because it's so completely insane), but I do agree with Lando that it would be nice if FYI saw some actual use. I know Shariq & Shannon & others put a lot of effort into it and it seems a shame to waste it. But the trio have preferences too and there are probably some movies we've recommended where they just go, 'Uhhh no, I'm not sitting through that'.

    Wow Garfield has his head way up his own ass.

     

    Was that the takeaway? I dunno, seemed like he was just being honest that what originally drew him to the story was cut by the studio.

     

    But then it always seemed obvious to me these movies were gutted by heavy edits. I still don't think they were all that bad, but I was also never all that enamored of the Raimi films.

    One of my big problems with "Spider-Man 3" was that Gwen Stacy was in it, but did absolutely nothing Gwen Stacy-like. She was just a female character that was there to be "the other woman" basically. Meanwhile, you had Elizabeth Banks RIGHT THERE the whole fucking time in a bit part as Betty Brant, who had also been a romantic interest for Pete in the past. So yeah, I was annoyed that Gwen DIDN'T die in her last incarnation, but her dying in THIS version of the franchise seemed tonally wrong, and her reason for being in danger being totally contrived.

     

    Hey, if she already had such an awesome job at OsCorp, WHY did she need to worry about getting into a good school? Also, in the end, she was basically just there to hit a switch or push a button, right?

     

    I think they should have waited until ASM3 to kill her (if they were so determined to do it). Garfield & Stone's chemistry is off-the-charts and something that pretty much everyone agrees is the best part of these movies. Cutting it off so quickly seems like they're just shooting themselves in the foot. And it's really insane when you consider the original version of this movie was going to introduce Shailene Woodley as Mary Jane. That would have been such a bad idea I can't even fathom how they got beyond the spitball stage.

    I occasionally watch the rifftrax for Glitter after the MST3k for Girl in the Gold Boots, because they're basically the same movie, except Glitter is way worse.

     

    Glitter definitely needed more scenes of people pouring beer on things.
