verb, transitive

1. To add an unnecessary number of villains or antagonists to a work of fiction (usually a film)—more villains than it can sustain while still being "good."

2. To lose control of the balance of multiple villains or antagonists, in the case that the balance was previously maintained (esp. in a TV show, which can hold more villains than a movie).
• Batman V. Superman could have been a good movie if it was just about Batman vs. Superman, but instead they totally spider-man 3'ed it.

• Seasons 1-4 of Game of Thrones pulled off having more than one villain. But when the show split off from the books, they couldn't juggle all the characters and it got spider-man 3'ed.

• The reason 2020 was such a shitty year is because they tried to cram in too much content at once. Terrible pacing, no room to breathe. Covid, toilet paper panic, Australia fires, California fires, George Floyd, Trump's 2nd impeachment, election conspiracy theories, RBG, almost having war with Iran... takes massive bong rip They spider-man 3'ed an entire year.
