Spider-Man 2
I will begin this quasi-review by stating that I think Spider-man is an excellent film. I seldom see a movie in the theater more then once during its initial release, but I saw the first Spider-man three times. I don’t think I’d gone twice to see a film since O Brother, Where Art Thou?, and normally I tend to want to wait awhile before re-watching a movie, but I got really into Spider-man. Also, I super heart Sam Raimi. I’ve been a huge fan of his since I saw the Evil Dead movies, so I was excited when I heard he was directing the movie. Anyway, the point is– I really liked the first movie, so bear that in mind as I extol the virtues of its sequel.
I like the new one even better than the first one! The story is engrossing, the characters are deeply developed, the villain is more intriguing, and the special effects are better. There is a scene in, on, and around a runaway subway train that has to be seen to be believed; it actually had me on the edge of my seat and breathless.
I promised my nephew and his friend that I would take them to see it Thursday (tomorrow), but then decided to see it at the midnight am showing late Tuesday/ early Wednesday morning. I was a little hesitant to do that, as I wasn’t sure I wanted to sit through it again with the kids, but I am kinda tempted to go again in between and make the viewing with the kids number three. It’s just that good.
I can’t wait for Thursday.
I can’t wait for this weekend!!! I signed ur guestbook btw…so u can go ahead and read that…bye! =]
I stayed at the unfortunately unfinished University Hotel….eh..it was alright…there are some freaky hallways…my coach and i walked back one night and since the elevator didn’t work we had to walk trhough some hallways that didn’t even have door knobs on the door…great times ;] it was like The shining all over again. hehehe…u can IM on AIM if u want…i think ill be online for awhile…im bored to death…i think im seriously dying ;]

Ohlala .. I wasn’t going to see it. But maybe I’ll actually rent this when it comes out on DVD. :) How have you been, P ?? ~PK
A lot of critics have had great things to say about Spiderman 2, mostly along the lines of what you said. I’m also not much of a moviegoer, but I might make an exception for this one.

Re: D vs NY…I wasn’t thinking so much in physical as all as in attitude. Dallas is beyond snobbery…they tend to think they are the cultural place to be as if they set trends like NY social activites etc do.
I live very near LA now, but try and avoid it, so I’ve yet to form an opinion other than…very large, often expensive and mass tangles of freeways.
