With how cluttered the film is already I think that Mysterio will be a villain that Spidy beats up at the beginning and then it leads into the THANK YOU SPIDER-MAN DAY (I've seen a few pics on-line of banners that say THANK YOU SPIDER-MAN).

Info on Sandman:

from what ive heard on the radio and looked up on the internet and seen previews at the move sandman will be the main villian but venom isnt in it theres going to be black spiderman wich is the same size as the normal spiderman

Watch the interviews from Comic Con. Also go to the Spider-Man 3 offical web site, there is a picture of Topher turning into Venom. And lastly, before the recorded trailer from Comic Con was taken off-line there was a quick scene at the end of the teaser at Comic Con that showed Topher turn into Venom and then Venom rushes at to the screen. Its Venom because you could see all of the teeth and the tongue.

So Venom is in this movie. The villains are Sandman, Venom, and Harry Osborn as GG2 or Hobgoblin.

Feige Says to Expect More Spider-Man Movies
Source: Advanced Dark August 23, 2006

Marvel Studios' Kevin Feige recently told MTV that he thinks it's almost certain there will be more Spidey films after Spider-Man 3:

Feige directly addressed rumors that it might be the final film for the friendly neighborhood web-slinger.

"There will be many more Spider-Man films to come," he promised. "We already have stacks of ideas for the next one because of the wealth of stories in the comics. We could be making Spider-Man movies for the next 20 years, based on the 50 years of Spider-Man history we have."

That doesn't necessarily guarantee, however, that Tobey Maguire will continue as the man under the mask.

"When you're concentrating on one movie at a time, there's a beginning and a middle and an end to that process," Feige reasoned. "We've been topping each one as they go, [and if that happens again], that's the time for those discussions."

I could see this lasting along time but I wonder who would play spidey next. And I hope they don't screw the pooch on this one.

In the interviews from Comic Con Tobey said that he would be up for another Spider-Man "if there are interesting stories to tell."

I have a lot of faith in Rami but I am werry about 3 villains and a possible 4th side villain.

Bruce Campbell Talks Spider-Man 3

'Josh Look' wrote in about a Q&A held with Bruce Campbell on Friday in which he was asked about Spider-Man 3:

I had the honor to go to a Q&A session with Bruce Campbell on Friday night in Cambridge, MA. It wasn't long before someone popped the 'Spider-Man 3' question. Bruce said that he couldn't say much and was probably going to say too much, but he and Spidey will "team up." He also bragged that the snooty usher is the only person to ever defeat Spider-Man in the movies.

Later in the night, (with an enitrely different crowd) there was a screening of his film "Bubba Ho-Tep." He took more questions, and again Spidey 3 came up. This time, said that his role was "pivitol." Obviously a joke, but I'd be willing to be that he is definitely NOT Mysterio, as earlier rumors claimed.

Spider-Man 3 hits theaters on May 4, 2007.
