So, what are thoughts and opinions for this film. Excited? Disgusted?

Personally, I am pretty excited about this movie. Though, I seem to be excited with about every movie that comes out these days. I've already purchased my ticket from the movie next week, right after school.

[DarthAve]

I told my mom that if we didn't see this movie, I would do somthing bad. And by bad, I mean eat all her chips or somthing.

[BongoBob]

I never saw the 2nd spider-man, but this one definitely looks like a must see.

[MTV2]

i don't have school that day

boughten isn't a word

[ET Warrior]

While technically a word, you've still used it in a grammatically unacceptable way. You may use boughten as an adjective, to describe something that had been bought. So, had you said, "I've got my boughten ticket" You would be ok. However, it is not a verb, and you get an F.

[Bomberman65]

I can't wait for it. Venom is my favorite villan. I've been waiting for this for a long time. Bring on Spidey 3 I say.

[DeadYorick]

Venom wont be in this one from what I hear. This takes place when Spidey finds his symbiote. Venom comes way later when Eddie Brock finds it. This is about Sandman as the antagoist. Anyway im voting that Venom will come in Spiderman 4

Oh shi-, is that some return of the grammar Nazi?

Heil die sprachlehre nazi!

And back to the real topic here:
I am definately going to see the movie. If not for the whole Spiderman thing but because I want to see Eric(The nerdling we all love in the 70s show) become Venom(The most badass villain I know)
But I'm worried of the plot, which is always a problem with comics made into movies. What I've read it seems they're pretty loyal to the original plot in the comics, but it still worries me a bit. However, they have made excellent work thus far in the movie adaptations.

Can't wait

[Pho3nix]

I'm very very excited about Spider-man 3.

I'm a little worried about how Venom will turn out, he looks good in still pictures but in motion I'm not sure.

Sandman has always been the most boring villain in the whole Spider-man universe right next to Doc Ock. So for me the whole Sandman storyline will be overshadowed by my greed of seeing Eddie becoming Venom and fighting Spidey.

[Curt-Man]

I am uber pumped about this. I've read up on it and stuff, so I don't see myself getting dissapointed by venom or the storyline in any major way, so I'm pretty damn excited, also I hear its going to be a long one, which we all know means long fight/chase scenes

[Jeff]

wow I didn't even know it was a word.

anyways I'm looking forward to Spider-man 3 very much. I think it looks superior to the first two from the trailers and scenes that I have seen.

[Char Ell]

I thought the first two Spider-Man movies were quite enjoyable and will definitely head to my local theater to see Spider-Man 3. I am somewhat apprehensive about how well the story will work with three different villains in play though.

You got me there. However, I did correct it.

I hope it does turn out to be a good or great film. But, some of those movies around the top haven't done so well.

Actually, you fail.

http://www.answers.com/boughten&r=67

bought·en (bôt'n) pronunciation Chiefly Northern U.S.
v.

A past participle of buy.

Subsequently, "boughten" is a correct word both in spelling and in grammar. Therefore, I denounce your claims to the throne of the grammar nazi and hereby declare you a participle jew!

[Mike Windu]

To whoever said Venom wasn't in it.

You're wrong. Good day.

[The Source]

I am a little disappointed at the Green Goblin II's design, but I think they will make up for it with everything else. I have not been this excited since forever. I am glad to see the Symbiot alien suit has been brought into the movies. Go Spidey!

[Bomberman65]

Yeah Venom is in the film I have proof. Here look:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_HmW...elated&search=

And both are not a fake this is the real deal. Its not the full scene but damn it look bloody good so far. I can't stop watching this. 4 more days till it comes out here in New Zealand.

War and Peace..... $560,000,000.

O_O

[BongoBob]

After inflation yes. But still. God damn.

[Lorden Darkblade]

I honestly can't wait to see this movie...
I think it's going to be one of the best Spiderman movies.

[Son of Skywalker15]

I've been a Spider-Man fan for awhile, and it seems that Spider-Man 3 will make us Spidy fans proud. I can't wait!

[The Doctor]

Eric Foreman as Eddie Brock? Sorry, I just think they could have casted that one better. :P

I can't wait for this one. I'm going to see it with a few buddies sometime in the next few weeks, for sure.

I know what you mean. He's kind of thin for Venom.

Still excited though. :DDD

I'm looking to forward to what he ( Topher) can do on the big screen. I've only seen the picture posted in here of venom, and it looks great!

You should have actually read the entire definition

"The Northern form boughten (as in store boughten) features the participial ending –en, added to bought, the participial form, probably by analogy with more common participial adjectives such as frozen."

You can use boughten as a participial adjective, just like you can with frozen, as a modifier to describe something. And because a participle is an adjective form of a verb, it's not a verb anymore and cannot be used as such. I keep my throne, and to the dungeons with you.

Regardless though, the definition still clearly dictates the word as a verb, as it says in the very first definition. Sure, you can do whatever faux-grammar wriggling to get out of it, but you can't deny what it bluntly states.

The only case you have is to say that Northern US dialect don't count, but once you do that you'll have the entire state of Montana upon you...

theres a 7-minute trailer on this, where Parker fights the green goblins kid (forgot name)

No, the only case I have to say is that it is a participle version of the verb, which is clearly stated. It is a "past participle of buy". It's still TECHNICALLY a verb, but you cannot USE it as a verb in a sentence, which is why I say it is not a verb. You can argue that I was semantically incorrect, but for all intents and purposes it's not a verb. So

So as to avoid my continuing to be completely off-topic, I'm going to see S3 for absolute certainty this Friday. I've even gotten work explicitly off to prevent the slightest possibility of missing it.

[BongoBob]

My friend Greg called his boss and said he was going to be sick on May 4 the day the announced that was when spider man 3 was coming out

[JoeDoe 2.0]

I'm going to see it and skip my appointment with my doctor, I'm sure I don't have any diseases, but if I die while seeing SP3 will be totally worth it. (start figthing for my laptop and my xbox elite)

[MrWally]

Who needs to fight?

I dibs both.

That's right. Dibs.

[Titanius Anglesmith]

I'm really looking forward to this, so I'll be going with a few friends at midnight on Thursday (well, Friday really). It's just a little disappointing that Venom won't be showing up until late in the movie.

[Vikinor]

I'm definatley going to see this. I'm hoping to go on Saturday. There is no way I'm going on Friday, I don't really enjoy overcrowded theaters.

[narfblat]

I say however people use "boughten" becomes the proper form. It's an evolving language, aint it?

How did a spiderman 3 thread become a grammar school? A thread of this awesomeness should absorb bad grammar harmlessly.

Has anyone got a Venom smiley? That would be a cool adition to this forum.

[Mike Windu]

Nope. But I did buy an absurdly cute Venom plushie for 4 bucks at Target.

[BongoBob]

The words cute and venom should never be next to each other.
