My friend Josh got hooked up with passes to the premiere of Sony/Columbia’s Spider-Man 3. Of course I jumped at the chance to go, even though it is in QUEENS! (Peter Parker is from Queens lol)

We trekked over on the R train, along with what seems like a migration of New York entertainment industry folks. I mean normally we would never be caught dead leaving the island of Manhattan for anything! lol

When we got there it was hectic. I mean there were spectators, paparazzi, plus what seems like a thousand guests all having the same “do you know who I am?” attitude. We were happy to roll through red-carpet-VIP-style, pretending we were real celebrities as MTV’s Gideon Yago and others waited in line.

Then as we were walking in, the security asked us to check in our CELLPHONE and CAMERA!! Bummer, no bootlegging movie clips using my camera phone. Nor could I take a picture with Tobey and the rest of the cast as they walked around the hall mingling with the guests. But they did offer us free drinks and popcorn

The movie was intense. Two and half hours long. It ties in all the story lines and loose ends from the previous two installments, while introducing 2 new villans as well as like 3 different love triangles… wheew!

It’s a little cheesy at times, and we learned that Spider-Man loves America (you’ll understand what I mean towards the end right before he jumps into battle with the Sand-Man and the Venom). Go see the movie on Friday when it comes out! It’ll be a fun time as long as you don’t try to judge it like at the Oscars.
