[@camerondodge2070]

If only Raimi had actually gotten to make his version of the film. No Venom, Harry's story is wrapped up as a sub-plot, and Sandman is the main villain. Raimi didn't want to do a Venom story because he doesn't understand the character and didn't really enjoy any of the Venom comic stories. The studio pushed for Venom and for Harry to be a third main antagonist, and we got this. Then Raimi wanted to do a Vulture story for 4, but the studio heads pushed for Lizard, another character Raimi didn't get and, remembering what happened last time, he quit. Tis a shame.

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

it is kinda ironic raimi didn't like venom. i mean venom is basically something one would think raimi would have enjoyed to write

@Brian Carter You're probably right about that. Either way the studio shouldn't have pressured him into using Venom.

He only ever made statements against the movies in interviews where the comments were off the cuff and not in relation to the truth of how he believes the films to actually be as great and great fun for him and the cast to be on and how influential Sam Raimi and Stan Lee is.

[@jasonblalock4429]

8:00 I think the basic problem is the black level on Venom. His suit is artificially brightened so that it stands out against the black background, because having a truly black character against a night sky would make him impossible to see. But that makes him look super-fake because there's no justification for the bright lighting on him. It's the exact same reason the fistfight at the end of Black Panther looked so bad. Basically, having black-on-black in a CGI shot is always a bad idea.

[@thehorrorhound6575]

Rami didnt understand the appeal of venom, but he said to himself “if I’m gonna do this I’m gonna go all in” and he made the Spider-Man black suit AND the venom suit look like the comic versions (minus the bulk on topher Grace obviously) so it had the bright white eyes, the bright white wrap around giant spider emblem, the white patches on the backs of the knuckles. It looks perfect. And the Sony executives said “this looks too much like an S&M gimp suit. Just paint a spare Spider-Man suit black and call it good.” They didn’t care if it was comic accurate they just wanted that sweet sweet venom money and forced rami to not only do a character he didn’t understand but wouldn’t even let him do it like the comics.

[@Zypemaytro]

I don’t blame sam rami for this film because Sony forced him to do venom he didn’t like venom and knew nothing about him so he did a peter without morals which works for me this film is bad but not as bad as everyone says it is I would go to hi-top films for why it works made me Change my mind about it

[@wchan39]

Not to mention Peter being douchey here makes sense. He finally gets praise and recognition for being Spider-Man and he let it go to his head and became overconfident to the point of not getting what he's doing can be insensitive and hurt people. For example, that kiss with Gwen Stacy. He wasn't aware how hurtful that was to Mary Jane and was probably thinking, "This is just giving something for the audience to see. I'm planning to propose to MJ and she'll definitely say yes, so it's fine!".

[@Zypemaytro]

Doug I've always felt the same way about the third movie. It's overbloated, a bit corny at points, but it's a fun watch nonetheless.... sorry Rob.

[@jacobmonks3722]

The casting in the Raimi movies is literally perfect. Toby McGuire can be dorky and awkward, which is very different from Peter in the comics, but it's perfect for what Raimi wanted to do in these movies: show an honest and well-meaning person and pit them into situations that tempt them to betray themselves.

[@douglasrau5094]

Raimi's Spider-Man 3 is like X-Men: The Last Stand. Both were hated by critics and fans alike but each actually has at least a few good scenes--the creation of Sandman, Magneto using his powers to throw around cars and trucks on the highway, Magneto moving the Golden Gate Bridge.

[@ZzMattizZ]

Yup. And they're both the disappointing conclusion to a trilogy where the second is considered the best, and they both add unnecessary storylines (Symbiote/Sandman and the cure) instead of focusing the big one that was being set up in the previous films (New goblin and Phoenix). The biggest difference is that SM3 is a little better because at least Raimi directed while for X-Men 3 we got Brett Ratner...

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

[@aidanredding8058]

[@DarkKnightofAnime]

So when it comes to Spider-Man 3 I definitely like it more now than I did in the past but at the same time it is still the most frustrating film in the Raimi Trilogy and the very reason lies in that name The First two films in the Raimi Trilogy are very much Raimi’s vision and you can see it on screen but with Spider-Man 3 it’s more Raimi’s vision inter spliced with Sony injecting their own notes and ideas into the film And by virtue of that it also the start of what exposes my biggest problem with Sony’s Film Division and business practices which is just like WB they tend to be very reactionary based on how a film or franchise does financially/critically but unlike WB who seems to react more out of fear Sony seems to act out of a sense of self entitlement almost like they think they can do better than the “hack creators” To be fair as well though Sony seems to be coming to terms with that part of themselves but at the same time I think that’s why I’m a touch more forgiving of MCU Spider-Man despite the obvious issues those films have because it’s forcing the two companies to work together no matter what capacity that might be and I’d rather have them work together on the web-head than alone and individually

[@Undeadpriest94]

Fun-Fact: Sam Raime didn't want Venom in the movie. He wanted to focus on Sandman and the failing relationship between Peter and M.J. While I would have preffered to have the Peter-MJ relationship story with a better-written Symbiote story, it would have been nice to just focus on the two good things.

Boy I sure love not leaving my house 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

During that scene of Peter and MJ in the web, all I can think about is Peter saying "hey MJ, how about we lay on this stuff that was inside my body a few seconds ago?"

This is the best First Viewing ever... ...actually I haven't watched it yet.

[@mr.moviemafia]

Hot Take: I would actually argue the opposite, this movie does NOT regress Peter’s character but actually continues perfectly from Spider-Man 2 in a way that challenges the characters. In SM2, Peter has back-luck syndrome and everything wrong in the world seems to be happening to him. He can’t catch a break, until the end of that movie when he finally gets some of that goodness and happiness that he deserves. In the beginning of this movie, things seem to be looking up for him. For the first time, things seem to be going right for both Peter and Spider-Man alike. He’s more popular than ever, he’s getting praised and admired from everyone in NYC, and (as someone who isn’t used to that) it goes to his head. He becomes more confident, and in so becomes more egotistical, cocky, sure-of-himself, and blinds himself to the other people in his life. His newfound ego is what keeps making him vulnerable enough to be drawn back to the Venom suit, and like Dr. Conners says, it “amplifies the existing negative characteristics of its host”, taking the worst parts of Peter and making it worse. I don’t think that’s dumb at all, it’s pretty clever on paper, we just get so caught up in the campiness of Raimi’s style that the more genuine aspects get buried. (This isn’t talking about the dance club scene, that’s pretty goofy even for Raimi)

I was legitimately watching the review for the second time and wondering when they were gonna post the first viewing 😂

[@kampinak]

feel bad for Sam Raimi he really knew how to make these Spider-Man films, if the fucking studio wouldnt have interfered in the 3rd one we could have gotten a lot more, would have loved to see him do Scorpion, Lizard, Mysterio, Vulture, Shocker, Rhino...all these iconic villains would have been great to see on the big screen done by him, its a huge shame we lost this

Bryce Dallas Howarda natural redhead playing a blond, where you have Kirsten dunst a natural blond playing a redhead

[@TeresaKinsley]

Then Amazing Spider-Man did it again with Emma Stone, a natural redhead playing a blond.

10:16 Doug’s scary laughing face

[@georgelong880]

Ngl (and I might be the only one) but I’m surprised that both in the review and the first viewing where they don’t bring up how quick and (in my opinion) cool the bit where Harry throws a bomb at Peter who moves out the way and throws it right back and how smooth it was. First time I saw it I was like “holy sh!t!!!” and it still gets a kick out of me to this day

[@ericdxfan511]

I'll watch Spider-Man 3 (Editor's Cut) over both of TASM films and both of the MCU Spider-Man films any day of the week.

[@BugsyFoga]

"You got any nuts" - Emo Peter

[@XYZBlaster]

9:55 Is this how coronavirus was discovered?

[@Zenn_Chan]

Interesting. So much like X-men 3, Spiderman 3 has a lot of individual scenes that work on their own, but as a cohesive whole, just falls apart. There's entire essays that could be written comparing these two movies

[@WesSideStory127]

10:14 - “Now dig on this….” 😂😂 I can’t help but laugh at that

[@de4thstroke32]

I watched all 3 Spider-Man films last night, I loved them, and it made me like Spider-Man 3.

[@gorrow1990]

Personally I still prefer this movie over either Webb movie and Homecoming. Maybe even FFH but I have yet to rewatch that one to see if it’s a 8/10 movie again.

[@TheLadySilverMoon]

Chaplin's legs in the corner is all I can focus on.

[@thehorrorhound6575]

Rami didn’t understand the appeal of venom, but he said to himself “if I’m gonna do this I’m gonna go all in” and he made the Spider-Man black suit AND the venom suit look like the comic versions (minus the bulk on topher Grace obviously) so it had the bright white eyes, the bright white wrap around giant spider emblem, the white patches on the backs of the knuckles. It looks perfect. And the Sony executives said “this looks too much like an S&M gimp suit. Just paint a spare Spider-Man suit black and call it good.” They didn’t care if it was comic accurate they just wanted that sweet sweet venom money

[@SB992REBORN]

Well the TEST suit was never finished and was a test to see how the black suit was going to ultimately be done and thus raimis idea for the suit was meshed as a amalgamation of Peter's spidey suit and the original test suit. It ended up being the final version for sm3. The Venom suit on the other hand is 100000% the Venom from the comics plus the webbed lines to make him ferocious and more deadly and terrifying looking. Venom was used more in Sam's og 170 min cut of the film which is even darker than the darker 3rd film is and is even more evil dead tone than the theatrical and is even close to and R rated.

[@OstinBond]

Fun fact, originally Raimi wanted the emo Peter dancing on the street scene to go right after Peter blowing up Harry’s face, as a throwback to the raindrops keep falling on my head scene, and as a drop of quality dark humor Raimi style) Just imagine, he blows up his face, walks towards the camera, the screen turns black as symbiote suit get’s closer and closer to the camera, a moment of silence and... TADA-TAAAA TADA-DA-DA-DA and Peter jogging on the street, as a goofball that he is))) That’s super funny, I wish they would have kept it like this

[@ericdxfan511]

Just watch the Editor's Cut of Spider-Man 3.

[@SB992REBORN]

​@@ericdxfan511 thanks! And I agree dude, the original edit, it's there!

[@Laruto722]

When will they start putting this type of video in its own series, "First Viewing (In A While)"?

[@KEVMAN7987]

One of this film's most redeeming features is all the memes it gave us.

[@zai24]

My day was pretty rough until you uploaded this.

[@mijofalco6355]

Question: Why did you guys give Chaplin a Roman column as a scratching post?
