In Reply to: dude, if Macy Gray didn't date the film posted by sean on May 21, 2002 at 13:35:17:
is created when you loose yourself in the movie....when you become absorbed in it, that is why I love film..for that exact reason,
Spiderman is a comic, and it isn't tied to a specific time in space, sure we know it was shot now, but they don't go out of the way to give you a date, and I beleive even at Peter's graduation they block out the year using scenery.....so when you are watching the movie and you are all into it, then all of a sudden there is a Macy Gray concert in the middle of it, for me it broke the suspension of disbelief, I switched from being in a movie to watching a Sony commercial...I dont' think the scene fit with the rest of the movie, and as time goes on it will look more and more out of place.....
as for Raimi using her to date the film so he won't be held accountable in the future for old special effects....well, no offense man but that is the lamest argument I've heard all day....
