    I haven't seen Spiderman 3 since it was in theaters, but I still remember what I hated most about this movie. The dumb sound cues... like everytime Sandman was on screen, that generic (heh) old timey foghorn music would come up and go "Bum bum buuuum" like we needed the audio to tell us he was the big badguy.

    I agree. The best episodes are the ones of legitimately bad movies. I didn't really like the Crank movies where the guys just fellated the director. Now, they are basically just promoting a new movie. Ah well, i guess when you work in Hollywood, you can't just make fun of bad movies without fear of getting blacklisted.

     

    You guys take care, sign the guestbook on your way out.

    Wow. That's terrible. The element of suspense feels like it has been completely removed and the bits intended to be comedic are ham-fisted and out of place.

     

    Also, are we expected to believe that the mother checking out the room with her son didn't hear any of the chaos and destruction outside until the ship was right outside her window?

     

    There is just too much in this scene....

     

    Why are the people on the boat panicking? They are in a great position, they're on top of a massive boat. They aren't going to get hurt, and its not like they're going to sink into the sea. I especially like the girl that double takes her line... "We're not gunna stop! We're not gunna stop!!!"

     

    "Where's the horn?!? Where's the horn!?" "There's gotta be a horn around here somewhere!"

     

    So the black guy warns the people in the boats with the PA..... but he doesn't warn the people on the pier?? Fuck em, I guess they'll figure it out for themselves.

     

    The guy that's trying to steer the ship with the fake wheel. "It doesn't work!" ... but the fucked up thing is that he's steering the wheel like he's trying to stay on course. If he thought the wheel worked, shouldn't he have been spinning it one direction or the other OUT of the way of the coast? Was he TRYING to steer it towards people??

     

    If hitting a rinky dink boat was enough to slow the boat down enough to register on the speed gauge thingy, then how the hell did the ship have the momentum to crash as deep inland as it did?? If a small fishersham's boat slowed it down, the immediate coast and docks surely should have stopped it... right?

     

    Why was their a scene where a motorboar crashes into a store??? Its so unnessesary and amounts to nothing, isn't it enough that there will SOON be a scene where a GIANT FUCKING CARNIVAL CRUISE SHIP crashes right into the middle of the town square??

     

    As the boat looms towards the pier... "Quick! Pedal faster!!" Wtf, you can SWIM faster than you can pedal those damn things.

     

    Lady on the phone: "What? I can't hear you??" Maybe thats because THERE IS A FUCKING CARNIVAL CRUISE SHIP CAREENING DOWN THE STREET NOT MORE THAN 10 FT BEHIND YOU.

     

    Was the guy in the truck really honking his horn at the ship?? Because he clearly SEES the ship, he KEEPS driving, he doesn't hit the brakes... and he still honks and then drives right into the path.

     

    The ship clearly kills the man in the truck that decided that driving in the direction that everyone was running from in a panic was a good idea, and the immediate cut after is that that madman screaming "FOUR KNOTS!!!" like keeping track of the boats speed even matters to anyone at this stage. Hundreds are dead and a town lies in ruins.

     

    Where the hell did the mom and child go to escape the danger??? Was the condo she was checking out really that much larger than the width of a cruise ship?? I mean that ship LEVELED that entire place... that woman and child are dead.

     

    The old couple still just relaxing on the patio until the VERY moment the ship crashed through the other side of the building... THEN they panic and run. Its like nobody in this fucking film reacts to anything until its right up on them. Its like in a videogame, where there is a certain distance you can stand from an enemy and they SHOULD be able to see you and attack, but they don't... but if you inch one step closer then they freak out and attack you. This movie is populated with dumb A.I.

     

    "TWO KNOTS!" says the maniac on the floor, who is still commited to this thing for some reason.

     

    The ship moves at a constant and steady pace, leveling everything and showing no visable signs of slowing down until the exact very end, where it stops like someone hit the brakes....

     

    ... but at least the ship spared the church, and thats all that really matters right?
