Reviews for The Basketball
RubinaLadybug chapter 1 . 5/14/2019
I really like this. Poor Peter has to undergo so much anguish after the loss of his BFF. Wonderfully written. A las, the film just followed the comics. At least here Peter had Ursula to help him out, even in her own funny way. You definitely wrote that comforting part well, and even got me to genuinely laugh aloud. Also, hilarious call back to the third movie with Peter loathing those Goblin weapons.

What I like best was the conversation between Peter and Harry. They certainly are each other's best friend. Plenty of good emotion here with important lesson for everyone to learn. You certainly got me to feel. That last line really caught my attention. Terrific one shot.

Thanks for the great read!

This was so sad and sweet and the perfect way to cheer me up after mourning the spiderman trilogy's ending. Thank you for caring enough about Peter and Harry to write this. I really appreciate it.

I very much enjoyed this story, it was well written and quite moving. Your recent review mentioned your own writing, and I wanted to check it out. I'm only familiar with Spiderman, so that's why I picked this story to read, and I'm so glad I did! I don't know what you mean by your recent remark, 'my own meager efforts'. I definitely feel this story was better than anything I've ever produced.

SANDEFUR.

This is perfect.

Your author's note at the end really struck a chord with me. I loved the entire movie, but I was needless to say very saddened by Harry's passing. He was after all, my favorite character.

I can honestly say that this fic has helped ME to come to terms with the way things turned out as well. Thank you so much for sharing!

Oh and I loved:

"Genetically altered!"

"Chemically enhanced!"

Just brilliant all around. *claps* Bravo!

That was so incredibly touching. It makes me more sad about Harry's death. Great piece of writing, really deep.

Beautiful fic. Perfect.
Ikumak chapter 1 . 5/9/2007
That was so beautiful. Both in content and the way you wrote it. The ending of teh movie was so depressing, they could have at least let him stay until the next one. And yeah the basketball scene was really touching.

Very amazing job.

This was really good, I got teary-eyed. I still can't believe Harry died. :(

You know what you should write to deal with Harry's death? A story where he's not dead. DO IT.

you're good.

I absolutely loved it! What a wonderful story.

I totally agree with you about just when Harry got really cool they killed him off.

I really enjoyed this story. Good work.

Oh, this was so touching! I loved the idea that Harry is trying to speak to Peter through his dreams, to tell him to move on and forgive himself. And kudos for using Ursula as well!

This was quite good. Sad of course but good. I liked it.

The dreams where interesting, but sort of sad of course. I enjoyed this fic alot because of the dreams.

One thing, I'm sure the movie mentioned this, but since I did read the book, Peter named him the 'New Goblin', and that's what Sam R said it was, not the Green Goblin, but I know in the comics Harry does became the Green Goblin 2.

SM1, never really said if Peter and Harry were friends for long, the book seems to say that Harry only had been starting to go to Midtown. So once SM3 came out saying they had been best friends all through high school, I had a bit of a hard time buying that, it would have been cool if they used that in SM1.

Just my POV on some stuff. But I like this very much. Will you be writing any more on Spider-Man?
