What kind of life situation are you in when you can only watch a few mins of a film a day lol

Just life stuff, haha. Gym, the commute (a bus just died and cut off a lane and a half today?? It was literally right in front of an intersection too, so like three lanes had to slowly merge and drive pass), new games (THEY COME OUT SO FAST), chores. There's other personal things too, I can't get into. But yeah, just life stuff.
:D

Man, this movie is so good.


Eh, there were things I liked and disliked. The Goblin armor would have been fine if they didn't go for such goofy gestures at times, like when he's just talking on the rooftop.

Yeah, those type of things don't really bother me too much.

In the scene where he fights the carjacker, the carjacker began with a gun and then switches to a knife. Spider-man kicks the knife out of his hands, there's a quick cut, and the carjacker just has the gun again suddenly, lol. But overall, not important for what the scene was doing.

I'm mostly focused on characters, what we learn about them, and the importance of scenes. There's a lot of character nuances I really like. Like we are shown a few times of MJ's broken home, her failures, and somehow despite all those things, she always appears happy to other people (she's always shown visibly upset before Peter talks to her). She's upset for a moment and then does a complete 180 when she sees her boyfriend or friends again (and I think that's very similar to how people are in real life).

I also really like J Jonah Jameson. As a character, he's an asshole and should be totally unlikeable, but when Green Goblin comes to ask him where to find Spider-Man's photographer. JJJ knowingly lies saying, "I don't know. We get them in the mail." despite him just telling Peter off, who was just outside his door. Maybe he's just being greedy and trying to protect his moneymaker? Maybe he's actually kinda honorable and protecting the people he cares about. Can't really say for sure, but I like to think the latter.

Also, I think a lot of things that happened or is said in this movie would not be okay, lol. Peter insinuated that Bonesaw was a woman or gay at one point. People would be all over that nowadays, lol. Also, MJ wore a Chinese dress at the parade. That'd probably catch a lot of flak too.
