Saw Spider Man 3 Tonight

NOT good. Not good at all. All I'll say is that there are musical numbers. 'Nough said. One that's truly, truly bizarre. OK, I'll also say that coincidence plays WAY too big a role in the plot. Pure laziness on the part of the writers, who it should be noted included Sam and Ivan Raimi. Stick to directing, buddy. And could more people cry? This is the most melodramatic piece of schmaltz. Oy.

Can something really be a piece of schmaltz? Does rendered chicken fat come in pieces? I more think of it as goo-like.

is that the definition of schmaltz? heh. has anyone ever told you you're full of random knowledge?

Gary said...

I have heard that random knowledge thing before, but since schmaltz is part of my family's heritage, I wouldn't say that this specific tidbit was all that random.

well, you will concede that in common usage 'schmaltz' means something that is overly sentimental.
