How Deus Ex Machina Ruined Spider-Man 3

Actually, the character of Bernard hardly pops out of nowhere. In Spider-Man 2, he tells Harry “your father only obsessed about his work”. He’s clearly trying to help Osborn well in advance.

NOW, that being said, the character I really took issue with was Gwen Stacy. It seems she was only in the movie for two reasons: to set off Eddie Brock, and for Peter to make Mary Jane jealous.

This being noted, it seems to me that they would have satisfied more fans by using Brock’s wife from the comic books — Anne Whelan. I know everyone was expecting Gwen to pop up at some point in the movies, but they would have been better off saving her for a later film. Possibly as a replacement love interest if Kirsten Dunst does indeed make good on her alleged intention to quit the franchise.
