Go Get 'em Tiger...

So C and I just finished watching the second Spider Man for the first time since we saw it in the theater. I forgot how cheesy the ending was. "Go get 'em tiger" are you kidding me.
Don't get me wrong it is a fantastically done movie. It has some of the coolest special effects and I can even forgive the sappy inner dialogues but when MJ tells Peter to "Go get 'em tiger" at the end it just kills it for me. I wonder is it just me?

So, the "go get 'em tiger" is a line put in for the comic book fans because in the comics, MJ refers to Peter as "tiger" from the very first time they meet. And, yes, it makes for a cheesy scene, but the whole scene was met to be cheesy so it fit in. Ask any comic book fan, and they liked the line because it shows the creators of the movie do pay attention to the comics it is based on.

That makes sense then in the context I suppose. It is still a great comic book movie. The speical effects are some of the best. I guess you'd have to be a 'real' fan to appreciate it. Thanks for the info.
