Friday, May 4th
Hey everyone. Hooray, it's Friday. I'm going to have some delicious barbeque this weekend, so I am very excited.
1pm: Sadly, Brad's wetsuit was under attack yesterday. He had hung it up in the shower, apparently leaving the cat unsettled. The cat pounced into action and beat the wetsuit in the battle.
Spiderman 3 came out today and has been showing since 9:30 this morning. The guys want to know if anyone has seen it. Chris is upset that they have yet to show Kirstin Dunst's breasts in the trilogy. It may make it rated R, but they think it would be worth it.
Bob in Milpitas saw the movie last night at midnight. He says that it was pretty good, but that the first two were better. There is no nudity in the movie, upsetting Chris. Tyler in SF also says it was uncomfortable when Peter Parker kept crying. Too many man-tears.
James in American Canyon responds to Brad's claim that he has not seen a good movie since 300. He says that they should definitely go see Grindhouse. I had heard that this was awesome and James confirms that it is badass.
We continually hear that Spiderman is weak. I had seen the artists on the soundtrack and it is incredibly emo'd out. Whether or not you like the whole indy-pop thing, I'm not sure that Snow Patrol belongs in a comic book movie soundtrack. Maybe that's just me.
Brandon in San Jose is into the Spiderman series and says that makes the movie significantly better. Some of the plot twists make more sense if you have read the comics. Brian in Emeryville takes the opposite approach. He was equally annoyed by the emotional factor and used to be a Spiderman fan.
2pm: Bill in Oakland calls in to offer Brad some help. Brad has an old Spiderman comic that is the first issue with Venom. As the movie has just introduced Venom, he wants to know if it would be worth more money at this point. He says it could worth quite a bit, but that he has to get it graded by the CGC. I look it up on Ebay and it seems to be worth about thirty dollars.
I get a tip from a caller who informs me that I should be looking at the completed listings and things are looking better for Brad. I see a lot of sales in the several hundred dollar range. But, as I know nothing about comics, I have no idea if Brad's is worth this much.
Renee in SF brings up Chris' disgusting story from yesterday. She asks if the piece was stuck in the razor. In fact it was, but that was not the first place he looked. Ewwwww. Then Jeff in SF calls to ask Chris if he really did eat it. This is absolutely horrific.
Renee, Jeff and everyone who emailed on this story, you should all be ashamed of yourselves. Maybe you should seriously consider some therapy. Thank you for traumatizing me by continually bringing this abhorrent story back up to the surface.
So, of course there is an abundance of Spiderman merchandise out. The website, 10ZenMonkeys, came out with the ten worst Spidey-related items. Of course, one of them is a costume for your poor, sweet dog. It's so mean. There is also a Spidey tie for all the tools of the world who want to look spiffy.
Almost more awesome, is a service where if you upload a picture of your child, his head will replace Spidey's in a cartoon. And, it also includes an educational segment on spiders. But, the absolute best, is the prosthetic arm Spiderman fishing rod. Wow, that is absolutely ridiculous.
To wrap things up, we have the Hasselhoff video from Extra. He is absolutely hammered, talking to his daughter with a video camera. She is chastising him for drinking yet again and seems really disappointed in her father. However, it is pretty damn hilarious.
