Spider-Man 3 with Jamelle Bouie
If \u201cSpider-Man 2\u201d had the reputation of being the greatest superhero movie of all time, \u201cSpider-Man 3\u201d had the inverse - a bloated mess with too many villains, and a very goofy Peter Parker going to the darkside, if by \u201cdarkside\u201d you mean a trip to Men\u2019s Warehouse and Hot Topic. But is that reputation justified? We\u2019re gonna air on the side of\u2026not REALLY. Notable Spidey 3 defender Jamelle Bouie (The New York Times, his podcast \u201cClear and Present Danger\u201d) returns to Blank Check to praise this film\u2019s focus on interpersonal relationships and quiet character moments. What else do we like? Griffin likes the \u201cEditor\u2019s Cut\u201d (on Amazon Prime!). Ben *obviously* loves The Sandman. We all can agree that the much-memed sidewalk strut and jazz club sequences are a ton of fun. What doesn\u2019t work? Let\u2019s just say we have some issues with a lil guy named VENOM.\n\nJoin our Patreon for franchise commentaries and bonus episodes.\nFollow us @blankcheckpod on\xa0Instagram,\xa0Threads,\xa0Facebook\xa0and\xa0X!\nBuy some real nerdy merch.\nConnect with other Blankies on our\xa0Reddit\xa0or\xa0Discord\nFor anything else, check out\xa0BlankCheckPod.com\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
