So saying that, I did laugh more than I expected in this movie. I laugh at Kevin Smith stuff, Will Ferrell stuff, and then even stuff that's in Wes Anderson movies such as Royal Tenabaums and Rushmore. In my opinion, I have a pretty good range of humor. Some scenes seem like they were written for 8 year olds to laugh at while some scenes would have you dive bombing your child with `ear muffs'. I don't see how the writers can go from one extreme to the other like they do and expect laughs. If it wasn't for the goofiness and the forced humor, and of course the carbon copy script of Spider Man, then this movie might have been able to stand on its own. Some to make you laugh (or try to) and some just to make the story a little different. The thing about this movie though is they throw in some little twists to the story. So basically if you've seen Spidey then you know what's going on here. The bodies on screen actually look like all the juices and matter were sucked from their insides until there just a prune of what they once were. Hourglass sucks the life force out of people so he can stay alive. And, in my opinion, Hourglass is a lot cooler, movie wise at least, than the Green Goblin. And instead of Green Goblin being his arch-nemesis we have Hourglass played really well by Christopher Donald (I always like that guy for some reason). The movie revolves around Rick Riker (or you could say Peter Parker) who becomes bitten by a radioactive dragonfly. Pam Anderson was in there for maybe a good 30 seconds.
Prof X was in the movie for a few scenes, but it really was just thrown in to get laughs in my opinion. Wolverine's whole part was him shaving his legs with his claws while smoking a cigar. Everyone on the front of the box is in the movie for maybe 5 - 30 seconds with the exception of the Dragonfly. The movie basically spoofs Spidey with tidbits of other movies like Batman and X-Men thrown in.
I didn't even watch Epic Movie or Date Movie. I had seriously doubted I would laugh at all in this movie since these movies have been going from good to really bad as quick as a snowball down a snowy hill. "Having `basically' gotten a free copy of this, I decided to go ahead and check it out.
