Spider-Man Forever

Pro:
-New Goblin storyline, including Harry the happy retard
-Sandman's birth
-Brock rivalry
-"get me some milk"
-Connor Oberst-Parker
-Venom effects
-most scenes, if cut by 10-30 seconds
-Harry and MJ as Pacey and Joey

Neutral:
-disco hands
-everybody cries
-2 songs
-making eggs and doing the twist
-Aunt May still not dead
-JJJ's vibrating desk

Con:
-jazz hands
-coincidences, aka Why is everyone everywhere?
-the butler
-weird motivations
-alien symbioite increases piano skills
-Gwen too hot, distractingly so
-plot points literally falling out of the sky
-newscasters getting more lines than Thomas Hayden Church
-NES boss battle finale
-new cast and characters making it obvious how the series should have been set up in the first place
-no Spider-Ham

What happened?
-too many cooks
-letting the director's brother write the script (when your brother isn't Jonathan Nolan)
-one too many villain, probably Sandman
-Sam Raimi deciding that since he's asked every 10 minutes if there's an Evil Dead 4 on the way, he better make it so no one wants to see another Spider-Man ever, at least directed by him

Anna's notes coming soon
