And, as if this was not enough, freelance photographer Eddie Brock (Topher Grace) is plotting to take Peter's job at the Daily Bugle.

| | About what i thought | 06/05/2007 | | relying on the first to get another hit off a film, why bother making a sequel after sequel with no substance. |
| | The villains are GREAT | amelie 05/14/2007 | | Venom rocks, should have had more screen time. Topher Grace just keeps getting better and better with time. Special effects for Sandman were superb. If series continues, will miss James Franco and his character "Harry". Tobie Maguire is perfect as the subdued, conflicted Peter Parker. Also enjoyed Peter Parker's more aggressive, cocky persona in this one! I love these guys... |
