Spider-Man vs Twilight

We couldn't help but notice a certain outcry from our fans about the Twilight books in our background. You think those books are full of teen angst? This week the boys pose that Spider-man might just be even worse! Post your choices below or on twitter!

Christ, FINALLY Kyle gets a win. And while defending Twilight (sort of) no less. That is impressive.

Also, the Real Quote of the Week:
"Don't be glass-half-empty, be glass-half-SPIDERMAN!"

I like how "I'm on fire for hours." is less being burned than "I was on fire for a few minutes then I'm not anymore."

:p

But yes, good episode.

You got rickrolled with the angst in Spider-Man 3!

Though I don't think he was actually angsty in that part of the movie. He started acting like a Quentin Tarantino version of a Noir protagonist.

Even if Spider Man 3 is somehow more angsty than the whole of Twilight, the Twilight story hs far more problems than just angst.

How was "Don't be glass half-empty, be glass half Spider-Man!" not the quote of the week?

Spidey wins. I don't even need to watch the episode.

Twilight is just a pale shadow of anything Spidey's ever done. Including the really shit parts (One More Day, Spidey giving birth to himself, Schroedinger's Aunt May)

When Twilight grows up, it might just get angsty. What Twilight is, is whiney. Like a little baby demanding a full life when it's already had two.

Didn't Twilight end on a relatively happy note, everyone finds soul-mates and lives happily ever after with their tonnes of meny, whereas in Spiderman he ends having his best friend die, his Fiance break up with him, he lives in a poor crappy flat, alone, with a crappy job, and his Superhero identity is still reviled and feared. Why wasn't that mentioned?

I can't believe I'm about to stand up for Spider-Man 3, but:
1) Best friend dies. I'll grant that.
2) Mary Jane was never his fiance in the films, and the ending looks more like reconciliation after a break-up than a break-up itself.
3) He lives in a crappy flat, yes, but probably not alone given the above point(well, in the sense that he likely does have a girlfriend he can invite over), and he received a desk job at the Bugle earlier in the film, so he's not exactly got a "crappy" job.
4) People feared and reviled Spider-Man? Is that why the news reporter and anchorman were almost in tears when Parker was being killed by Sandman and "Venom"? Is that why all the crowds were cheering for him when he swung in to fight the villains? "Venom" was reviled, but recognised as "something else", rather than Spider-Man.
