Yeah, they kinda blended the characters together. I really want to get the graphic novel collection of the death of Gwen Stacey and how it really messed with his head and almost pushed Spidie completely over the edge. It would be really hard to do in a movie because they would have to build up her character over a couple of films then kill her at the beginning of a film and have the rest of the film be about him dealing with it and then intro Mary Jane in the next film. Just don't think it would work too well as a movie. If they did a TV series like Smallville, then they should absolutely do it because there would be the time and continuity to pull it off.
And I really liked how authentic the settings were. A lot of the Flushing stuff (like Aunt Bea's house) was shot near where I live. Just really cool. Except for calling the main library on 42nd Street "the downtown library" it all looked really good.
