Actually, I think if there was to be a character that people would consider the emo, what about Mirai Trunks?

He even has a scene where he pushes the fringe out of his face! lolz emoness.

wow, next time Ill choose my words carefully to describe the annoying scenes of Peter dancing and trying to look good with the ladies.

I still think cell making a cameo was cool. lately I have no respect for spiderman anymore because of One more day. man imagine if dragonball suffers a retcon like that, oh wait, Gt kinda did that bringing back the Db flavor by turning Goku into a kid. ....

Well at least I can agree that the concept of One More Day honestly broke my heart as a fan.

I still refuse to believe that it's permanant.

I never understood why people labeled that as emo.

His hair looked dirty/greasy as fuck. Was hoping Jameson would have told him to go back home and wash his damn hair. :(

He had the emo look, no matter what you say or how much you explain, that's the stereotypical emo look. Although he was acting as the complete opposite of an emo. Bla bla bla, the movie was ridiculous, moving on.

I don't recall Peter wearing the "emo glasses" or heavy eyeliner or ridiculously awful blow dried hair. >_>;

His hair was greased up. That was it.

Spoilers: THE MOVIE SUCKS

I prefer Wolverine anyway.

Moving on.

Considering how much money it made, how people felt about it is irrelevent.

It will be the same if everyone hates the Dragon Ball movie, but it makes a lot of money.

And the movies that Sam Raimi had the most control over were really good, so I have no problems with them making more movies, as long as he's still the director.

That was why complaints about the first Pokemon movie by older fans who liked the Japanese fell on deaf ears. If you were a WB exec, which would you care more about, some guys who are 5+ years older than your movie's main demographic are angry that it's not exactly like the Japanese version, or $80 million?

I think it's funny because he was in no damn way "emo". I don't think the whiners even watched the movie, 'cause Parker is happier, more confident and more ballsy with the black suit than without. He's not sitting in his room crying while listening to Linkin Park and cutting himself.
Linkin Park and I are not emo. :cry: Anyway... pretty awesome image! Thanks for the great find! I'm gonna go and show all of my S-M3 hating - DBZ loving friends now. :D

Hehe, I like Linkin Park aswell. But I like it for the sound, not the lyrics... and it's worth noting that I liked it before I knew what an "emo" was, with me being a country hick and all.

I think it's the so called 'emo-fringe' that people are talking about. That whole covering one eye with your hair. God it looks stupid.

The symbiote was meant to bring out the worst in Peter. The film advertised it as if it was Spider-man vs Spider-man's dark side. Well apparently Spider-man's dark side is an even more annoying prick than his regular side in the movie-verse.

That’s exactly how I feel. I don’t think they could have gone in a worse direction with that. They just turned him into this reckless cool guy (“cool” being the inoperative word) who dances on tables and makes an ass out of himself because… that’s what evil people do, apparently?


Anyway, someone should contact the animators behind the movie and ask them if it’s really Cell. :P

Because Peter's a massive nerd. The symbiote only enhanced his personality, it didn't create a new one, so black-suit Parker was the Dark Nerd.

“Because he’s the hero New York deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we’ll reject him, because he can take it. Because he’s not the hero. He’s a boisterous douche, a watchful photographer. The Dark Nerd.” :P


I can see the reasoning, but that doesn’t make it any more impressive.

This. It makes some sense, but it doesn't make a good movie. Or a good character.

I didn't like a lot of the character based stuff, but I found the movie entertaining enough to not dislike it.

And I still look forward to the 4th movie no end. I don't see the reason to turn my back on a good movie franchise after one movie that was less than brilliant.
