The Spider-Man 3 spoilers are coming fast and heavy these days. Today, our friends over at MoviesOnline.ca put up some HUGE ones. I’m putting the questions in black text so you can read it, and the answers will be invisible unless you highlight it. So be warned… there are SPOILERS ahead.
Who lives, who dies?
Well, there’s a lot of misinformation about this, even close to the production, but I can now confirm that Sandman, Aunt May, Mary Jane and Gwen all live, while Eddie Brock and Harry die. The symbiote survives too, an alien parasite all alone, left looking for a new host. Surely this leaves the Spider-Man team cornered? Surely this means Carnage must appear in a future film?
When does Venom first rear his ugly head?
The symbiote is hanging around Central Park, but as for Venom, the recognisbale alien face with all the scary, jagged teeth? Believe it or not, Venom first rears his ugly head when Peter and his Russian landlord get into an argument about rent. That poor Russian guy.
Why does Harry have a change of heart?
Well, at first, he certainly doesn’t have a change of heart. Very early on, he has a big fight with Peter – much detailed previously on film ick – and Peter takes a few good knocks before putting Harry down. When Harry comes around, he doesn’t have much memory of what has been going on, or of his bitter history with Peter. It all starts coming back to him later, however, when Mary Jane and Peter have a black suit-fuelled tiff and she comes running to Harry for comfort. Harry now hits upon the idea of exploiting his Green Goblin alter ego to approach Mary Jane and manipulate her.
It’s Spider-Man’s actions in the final battle, risking his life to save Gwen and Mary Jane, that seem to bring Harry round. He gets in the way of one of Venom’s attacks to save Peter, and this ends up being the ultimate sacrifice.
Since I’m not wanting to give anything away I won’t comment too much… all I’ll say is take it with a grain of salt, and that if this is all true, I’m pretty disappointed with one of the tips… if you read the spoilers you’ll know which one I’m talking about.
