Been working on a Spider-Man 3 rebuild lately, the goal being to reduce less of Peter’s egomania about being Spider-Man, now the tensions with Mary Jane come from basic misunderstandings and MJ’s own feelings of insecurity that Peter becomes increasingly aware of in a more natural way.
The other major difference now is that there is NO symbiote or Venom. Sandman and Harry are the only antagonists, I scale back on Harry quite a bit in this edit, the amnesia angle now doesn’t kick in until the very end of the movie, I save him for ‘big’ moments such as forcing Mary Jane to kiss him
Peter reconciles with MJ in a more romantic way, not the heart-wrenching ‘last dance’ where you weren’t sure if they were together or just friends (at least until No Way Home put that to bed), hence ‘less uncertainty’
Lastly, I decided to end the movie with Peter saving Gwen from the rogue Crane, we cut to credits after Peter bumps into Stan Lee.
Still in the midst of working out where goes what, I’ll post updates as I go.
