Feb. 26th, 2005 12:46 amIs it wrong that I'm spending Spiderman rating Peter Parker?
Like, okay, the dorky Pokeball thing was COMPLETELY adorable, but the cliche fight with uncle was completely not, and the whole letting-the-theif-go bit made me want to stand him in the corner. He wasn't redeemed of that until he tried to flirt with the receptionist.
On the whole, I don't think it's completely wrong, because, well...the plot kinda sucks, if you ask me. Especially if you were a dope and let your friends take you to S2 first. And then they ALL REFUSED TO WATCH THE FIRST ONE WITH YOU. *pouts*
Oh, well. Toby Maguire as Peter Parker is completely my geeky OTP-type thing. Although moreso in the second movie. I cannot take too much of the teenage-angsty-ohnoIlostmytemperwithmydeaduncleandmybestfriendhatesmecausehisdadlikesmebetter.
I mean, okay, I actually read The Princess Diaries, but even I have standards.
P. S. MJ took the time to smell and smile and be all lookathemanlyman while flying seven stories up. I probably would have, too--but only if it was TOBY MAGUIRE BEING DORKY while flying seven stories up, not the red mesh nylon suit.
ETA:
P. P. S. Sad to announce, as the movie draws to a close, that Toby Maguire does not join the large ranks of men who look better half-dead (see LotR: RotK). Neither the girl nor the best friend deserve him, nonetheless.
