"Lucas told me he has seen all the summer movies since his company, Industrial Light and Magic, does most of the special effects. The only one they didn't work on was "Spider-Man 3." What did he think of it?

"It's silly. It's a silly movie," he said. "There just isn't much there. Once you take it all apart, there's not much story, is there?"

Well, it's not "Star Wars."

"People thought 'Star Wars' was silly, too," he added, with a wink. "But it wasn't.""

I dunno what to really think, was he kidding was he serious? if he was serious i lost some respect for him.(and i think it would be jealousy)In a way it sounds like he was makin a kid/joke about his own movies.

"silly" JJ binks :rolleyes:
 
Mr. Pot meet Mr. Kettle. Hopefully he was joking. I mean, was Spider-Man 3 not about Peter going to the dark side and coming back? :lol Maybe he's just a little perturbed he took six movies over 28 years and needed two generations to make it happen.
 
i agree with him too. i think he was kidding...not totally but for the most part.
 
The story was fine, (yes, it did get silly and stupid here and there), but The CGI in SM3 was pretty bad at times though. :monkey4
 
This coming from the man who gave us Jar Jar Binks and Padme dying of a broken heart.

I say good day to you, sir.
 
with all of the money this film was going to make why wouldn't they use the best CG company for their effects? some of the effects seemed like they were straight out of 1990. although maybe they rushed it out before the effects were ready.

The Spider-Man movies have close ties with Sony, so they used the Sony studios for the effects instead of getting another company. Notice the Sony Vaio laptops in the college scenes, plus the Spider-Man logo font is what they used for the Playstation logo as well.

Spider-Man 3 is kind of silly, but it's good fun. Star Wars is silly too.
 
the one thing SW prequals had over SM3 was Story.

No amount of CG and speacial effects can make a BAD story GOOD!!!

I think the script/writing was terrible in SM3!

I think the story was there but the outcome was bad.

In SM3 the story wasn't about the symbiote, Venom,sandman (they showed up but only a bit)... the Story was about Peter and MJ with a bit of Harry! or was that a different movie. :D
