It had to be that way..

208.219.14.2

The back-story of Spiderman is known to almost everyone in the US. The movie really could not deviate from that. And of course the bad guy gets it in the end. The Green Goblin died at least once in the comic only to comeback in various incarnations.

Again, the mask was unavoidable as it is the visual center of the Green Goblin character. I liked the touch of making it part of the military suit rather than just a mask as in the comic. I admit it does make some scenes hard to watch. The whole section of him tempting Spiderman into becoming his partner suffers because all he can do is geture and nod his head. The permanent scowl of the mask also robs the menace from his threats to the newspapar editor. Not much can be done acout this. The same was true of Batman and more recently, Cyclops in the X-men movie.....with out the expressivness of a whole face, the emotion of any given scene suffers.

Ms. Dunst has a very nice figure (some nice exposure of it in 'Bring It On'), but her face does not complete the picture in my eyes. She is a decent acctress though.

Thanks,
Rob
