Inappropriate Cheering/Applauding/Laughing in Spiderman 3 (spoiler)

when peter bitchslaped mary jane, half the people in the theater i was in started cheering and applauding lol. of course i found this completely hysterical and that kinda made my night. hehehe

there were some other moments which were meant to be sincere, tear-jerking and poignant which drew a completely adverse response from the audience. for example toby's hilarious facial expressions when crying. when harry died it was dead silence until the camera went to spidey and all of the sudden people were cracking up...similar to the sylvester stallone phenomenon, i take it.

was it like this for everyone or was i just sitting among an especially insensitive audience? there were other parts where similar adverse reactions happened, but the moments escape me.

when the British woman reporter had her supposedly sad monologue.....there were snickers left and right

oh when Harry and MJ kissed...someone screamed "puta!!" (Spanish for whore) followed by "oooh...cheaterrrrr....skank! Ho!!"

yeah, same here. then again i smelled a bit of intentional satire in that part

My audience was just fine.Pete's face while crying was funny, but I held in my laughter the scene was too touching for me to lauch.

same here,spy lol.im braziian and people said a lot of other words.heheh

I just had my mate sitting next to me saying 'When are we gonna see the bad guy..that creature thing, I need the toilet...when's he gonna propose to her'....he shut up in the end

I need the toilet

he really said this? out loud? i would have found another seat as pretended i didnt know him.

I was close to doing so believe me, he's got a really loud voice so it was annoying cause he kept distracting me...he was acting like a child, and he's a year older..you'd think he would be a bit mature

I felt bad after I saw what scenes the crowds were cheering at because after the screening, I saw Sam Raimi walk out of the theatre with his family, no joke.

dude, same here, did you happen to see it at the grove cinema

No one really laughed at inappropriate parts in the one I went to. I went at night the 12 as well so most of the people were in College so it was surprising. The only laughs at a bad time was when Peter put his hair over his eye and went Emo. I dont think it was meant to be funny anyway.

A spanish one from the sounds of it

People found the Bruce Campbell bit funny, I thought that was a well done scene

The people in the theater I went too were hysterical in most parts (in a good way) The part with emo peter dancing down the street was soo funny 😆

My friend started imitating him down the street, he even did the pointing at people thing

I just saw it with the wrong person in my group (the loudmouth smartass who never ****ing shuts up until the guy behind him punches him in the occiptial lobe). Basically this is the same guy that kept making smartass comments and giggling during schindler's list until i punched him in the balls.

i had most of these same ones when i went. except when harry died and peter cried. people actually reacted well to that (awwing and stuff)

also, people keep complaining about the parts where peters emo and like dancing and pointing and stuff, i thought those parts were hilarious. and they were meant to be right? i think raimi realized that those scenes were over the top and just decided to go all out. i personally liked those parts.

That was one of the best scenes, infact you could put it in any movie , and it would still be funny. Im not sure if thats a good thing 😕

Same thing happened here , everyone was calling MJ a whore in every language at my theatre. And they pretty much laughed at all those awkward scenes that ruined the movie. There was that very prominent feeling in the atmosphere of " I cant wait till this movie is over".
