It annoys me as well when they make the movies so unrealistic. What annoyed me most about Spiderman 3, though, was that the plot made no sense whatsoever and it seemed like it was slapped together by a bunch of 6th graders.

They all happen in a different way in the actual comic books. All of the things you mentioned were adaptations for the movie. They all happen in a different way in the actual comic books.

HAHAHA! Anyways, with all due repsect, I give Sam Raimi credit for keeping the tongue in cheek science of the golden era of comics in tact but, I must admit, my intelligence was less assaulted by the poorly conceived Dino de Laurentis version of Dune (very sad b/c Frank Herbert was a freakin' genius, the Tolkein of scifi really)! Anyways, great job on the blog!

I see all the movies and read a great many books. I think science fiction plays an important role in our overall scientific progress.

However, if the writers went through the trouble to get at least a passing understanding of the Stark effect for the n = 2 levels of Hydrogen, I would think they could do better than that "oh it's just a bird" line. I was also a little annoyed at how a dump truck full of SAND was handy when the SANDMAN needed an escape. Please.

We all know how you brainy types like to play in the sand, don't deny it. And maybe sand really is hiding the mystery of Higgs Boson, Scientologists are hiding the mysteries of the universe in Tom Cruise's massive head afterall, anything is possible. And oh my god am I glad to hear I'm not the only one who finds Mary Jane's screams annoying. In the second movie I just kept hoping for a sudden case of laryngitis. And why can't she get at least one good punch in. Even Parker's Aunt fought harder then Mary Jane did. She at least got the good doctor upside the face with her umbrella. All Mary Jane can do is scream, loud and long. While I suppose the sex would be a perk, the neighbors have got to be annoyed.
