aurelia,
fwiw, I disliked T3 more than Spidey 3 - and I didn't like Spidey 3. P-C and Tiggy seemed to like T3, so you can take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I didn't think there was any reason for me to see that movie except that it was on AMC. Clearly I'm a crank about it. :-)
I didn't see Spidey 3 and based on that clip, I'm really not interested. I think since Spidey 2 and Fantastic Four 1 (there's some time I'll never get back) I've avoided summer blockbusters that don't involve pirates in eyeliner.
Julie Christie gave a nice shout-out to the writers at the SAGs.
I'm thinking that a teenager raised by Sarah Connor and possessing physical proof of killer robots from the future out to get him would manifest teenage foolishness via paranoid overreaction rather than staggering naiveté.
You know, I actually told somebody Spidey 3 was pretty good. Then I saw this Youtube: [link] . I nearly cried.
That is one of the aforementioned scenes, yes.

You didn't like
Spidey 2
?! I loved that more than the first one.
I think it was Spidey 2 that had the "standing in your doorway" line. I liked this actor [link] and the effects were sometimes cool, but I need story and characters that interest me.
I would have loved for something more to have happened in Spidey 2. He starts of being broke and loveless and in an untenable position wrt to integrating superheroing in his life.
He ends it with one more demand on his time than he started out with.
In re: Sarah Connor Chronicles, I am Plei and P-C.
I liked this actor
hunh. I didn't realize she was in the Buffy epsiode "Wrecked"
I think he bugs me because he seems so much less savvy and street smart than he did in T2
Well, yeah, the lack of street smarts bugs me a bit but on the other hand he's not such a whiny brat so I call it an upside. And really, apart from the electronics and petty crime stuff, the T2-John wasn't that bright either.
Also, he stayed in the house for three days with bugger all to do -- if that would have been me, I'd already be seriously crazy at that point.
