Maybe I watched Spidey 3 too late at night and was just falling asleep, but I really couldn't wait for that movie to end. X3, I actually thought was pretty solid, especially if you rewatch it right after you watch X2. If you do that it feels more like an extension of the series and things like Cyclops' death don't really bother you so much. Either way X3 did seem to have some pacing or scripting issues that messed with the flow, but I still thought it worked as a film way more than Spidey 3. That one just felt goofy to me.
