Is it just me or does this sound like the most gratuitous extended cut yet? I didn't see it on TV but I was really interested in it. I spent some time last week Googling the added scenes and it sounds like complete fluff except for Jameson in the suit. Do I REALLY need to see Mary Jane going shoe shopping? Kirsten's phoned-in performance notwithstanding, the theatrical cut was damn near pitch-perfect. This EE doesn't sound like a LOTR or Superman or Dances With Wolves or James Cameron film, where the extensions bring a whole new level of depth to the characters and situations. It sounds like a pretty blatant stop at the Spidey-Fan ATM to help offset the cost of Spidey 3.
