Don't read if you intend to see the movie.

I saw this limerick review of Spider-man 2 by SPC Nobody Special. I love to write limericks myself, so I got inspired to create this limerick summary of the movie.

DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE MOVIE YET!
THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD.

Peter Parker starts having some fits
when his webshooters go on the fritz
and he gets no respect,
just abuse and neglect;
pretty soon he gives up and just quits.

Doc Octavius, seeking true fusion
(not those hacks', Pons and Fleischmann's, illusion)
joins 4 arms to his brain,
but they drive him insane
when his wife dies of cuts and contusions.

Mary Jane gets engaged to John Jameson,
while poor Peter she scorns and heaps blames on;
Then Doc Ock robs the bank
where Aunt Mae's mortgage sank,
And the Spiderman-Octupus game's on.

Harry Osbourne tells Doc to use Pete
for a Harry-to-Spiderman meet
where he'll show who's the boss
and avenge his dad's loss
when he deals Spiderman a defeat.

But the Doctor takes MJ as bait;
He and Spidey make subways run late
as they battle again,
Spiderman saves the train,
but then Ock whisks him off to his fate.

Well, Doc Ock gets the fuel that he needs
to see if his fusion succeeds,
But when Harry demasks
Spiderman, he just gasps,
and he can't do his vengeful misdeeds.

So now Spidey runs off to the pier
Where Ock's fusion is in a high gear.
A quick save for MJ,
Then back into the fray
As a miniature nova draws near.

Now as Peter, he calls on old Otto
to stop letting his arms drive him blotto.
A brief moment of sanity
shows him his vanity,
And Doc drowns his star deep in the grotto.

Of course MJ was watching this show,
and sees Peter is Spiderman--whoa!
Then the building will fall,
so he props up a wall,
and he says "I do love you, you know."

"But I'm Spiderman, and I have foes.
And if any of them ever knows
that you're Spiderman's girl,
then the pain that they'll hurl
will put us in a whole world of woes."

Well, MJ goes off to be wed
to John Jameson, but then instead
she runs back to Peter,
for true love is sweeter,
"And I'll take that small risk," MJ said.

wow....limerick marathon. Excellent rhyme and meter. I concede in the face of mass force. More to follow.

Thanks. I'm a stickler for following proper form. And the multi-stanza limerick format is one I do well in; I've got a couple others that I wrote, one about a scandal at a national Table Tennis tournament that ended up getting published in the official table tennis magazine, and one that was just for my own enjoyment, summarizing a news story about a guy who stapled his wound shut and didn't visit a doctor for a week after having a testicle ripped off by a belt sander (which he was using to masturbate with, somehow).

Oh, that's easy! All you have to do is shift your schedule by 12 hours. Sleep in the day and go out all night.

Peter Parker locks horns with Doc Ock,
From M. J. Watson he gets a shock.
Add some special effects
And a script with no dreks,
And she-bang! goes Columbia's stock.
