In Spider-man 2, Dock Ock was evil because his mechanical arms took over his mind. Not only is that innacurate to the comics, but its just dumb. So his arms had evil plans?

Then after he gets electrocuted, he gets total control back. How?

His wife dying and being stuck to a machine would have made him evil enough, without his mind being controlled.

I think it was just a device so they could have him talking to himself. And anyway, I don't really think it was the arms that made him evil. He went crazy when his wife died, and the arms took advantage of that to tell him to build another reactor, because that's the purpose of the arms. I don't think he was ever really 'evil,' just crazy and single-minded, like most mad scientists.

what pissed me off was the lack of steam when he went under the water with that hot ball.

Ha ha. Isn't Spiderman totally inaccurate anyway?
When Peter whateverhisnameis got bitten by the spider shouldn't of like... not gotten super human powers? He should of got sick and DIED. How the hell are we suppose to teach kids of today with shit like that shown to them. Its encoraging kids to play with spiders, hoping that they will get bitten and get spider-like powers. Then they get sick and die and its their PARENTS FAULT! Now they are being questioned by the police, accused of not making a safe spider-free enviroment for their kids to play in! Then for the next 3 years their parents get locked up and put in some 'good parenting' class so they are fit to look after their dead children! Not only does the movie KILL your children, It SCREWS your life too. Now you have NO MONEY, NO HOUSE, NO CAR and your children are DEAD!

So yes, Spiderman 2 is truely an outrage and I 100% agree with you on the topic.

I liked "the hudsucker proxy" which he wrote, but then again, it had all of it's steam effects in place.

Buster... it was a magic spider... created after the director had gotten his hands on some magic mushrooms... DUH!

Gives me the butterflies,
Gives me away,

Spider-man 2 was kinda silly. Not only would a mini-sun like that be so hot it would instantly incinerate everything in a mile radius, but being that magnetically strong would have pulled either the iron in your blood stream out, or thrown you in to the damn thing. And pulling out a plug conveniently halts a nuclear fusion explosion, or just throwing it in a river.

We've kind of spoilt it already for anyone who hasn't seen the film... so I'll just say... SPIDERMAN DIES!

isnt funny how a bit of science in the right (or wrong) hands can ruin just about anything fun?

I don't mind the mind-controlling arms THAT much or even the lack of realism, or the poor special effects for that kinda budget.

What I hated most about it is how it was so melodramatic to the point of being boring, just like Troy. But I guess that is the point... to get over-emotional girls to bring their boyfriends to the movie over and over again.

That and it sucks that so many know Spider-Man's identity so early in the series.

Har har Chris, but the hula hoop factory had steam, and so did the lady's cup of tea.

perhaps, but he had the good sense to mandate steam effects on that one.
