Spider-Dude.

Awesome. Just awesome.

Full of all sorts of Crunchy-bits for the serious geek (who can forget the terror of the Man-Wolf), and lots of feel-good shiny bits for the Spidey-come latelies.

Was it worth what I paid to see it? No. Almost no movie is, until you average in the cost of the DVD and the repeated viewings in your home.

And then, of course, you need to add in the amortized cost of watching it on your TV, listening to it on your sound system, the rent per sq. foot of your A/V room, the weight of your finger on the remote, batteries….

Nope. Still cheaper. And a hell of a lot cheaper than the freaking sodas, candy, and popcorn.

How much do I have to pay to watch the whole movie in .5 seconds, flashed into my cornea and cerebrum? Then I can just remember seeing it,and not have to sit there for three hours, banging the knees of the people behind me, and having my own savaged by the row in front of me.

Just for kicks, the theater manager will hit me over the head and take my wallet. But I’ll have some time free.
What will I do with it?

Probably watch Spider-man 2 again.
