My biggest thing is that Venom was scary when he first debut...he used his costume to smother people and such and he was someone peter could not beat in a fair fight which made him even scarier. It would be better if someone who was huge played the role but hopefully it can be pulled off.

So then wat venom is in spiderman 3 and he will be the main villain? or he will be for spiderman 4 if there is one?

I really think that Topher Grace will make a kick ass villian. He has that sharp, sarcastic witt about him that will translate good into the role. But like i already said, i abouslty love topher grace.

Ah, Chaos. It's always nice for you to pop in from time to time, I always get a good laugh:p

Rumor has it that Eddie Brock, Venom's alter-ego will be a character in Spiderman 3, but he wont actually become Venom until near the end, setting up for #4. Sandman will be the major villain in #3, along with either Hobgoblin or Green Goblin 2, as the rumor goes. None of this [except for Sandman] is 100% for certain, but thats what's floating around.

I think the reason behind casting Grace is that Venom is supposed to be the evil copy of Spider-Man and I think that plays well if they cast an Eddie Brock who resembles Peter in some ways.
I think it will be interesting to see how Grace fills the role.

Here is a big list of spoilers, I mean preety bad spoilers if they are even true regarding the movie.

Four Spider-Man 3 Villains!
Source: websguy June 1, 2006

Former Marvel Studios CEO Avi Arad may have let a big one out of the bag when talking to IFMagazine.com. He says there are four villains in Spider-Man 3!

iF: There are four villains this time, Venom, Sandman, and Green Goblin and when is the fourth going to be revealed?

ARAD: Right we have four villains. Pretty soon [we'll reveal the fourth villain] I believe. Maybe around Comic Con we'll reveal something and the madness will begin.

The full interview is available at the link above. The third installment hits theaters on May 4, 2007.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
What the hell are they doing, its going to be like X3, too much!

Has anyone seen the fan poster with Topher as Venom? It's been proven fake, but damn does it look awesome!

:eek:


By the way, the common runor on the street [AKA other message boards] is that the 4th villain will by Lizard in a small role. I think that makes sence.

So what does this mean? Either Lizard or Venom will have a bigger role then just an appearance at the end? That's way too much shit going on in my opinion.

A lizard fight scene at the beggining wouldn't necessarily "overcrowd" the film...it'd be a good scene to start the film off with, and who knows, after he puts the beatdown on the lizard, he'll probably go to investigate at the lab, and I'm sure that's where he'll find the black suit (as history-spoiling as that would be)...either that or they'll follow the 90's cartoon and have Jameson Jnr. bring it back from space...I don't really like the idea of that. But yeah, all that would only eat up maybe a half hour of the film...I mean, the lizard would never make a main villain anyway.

Of course Harry will try out the Green Goblin bit...Harrys part is already more or less worked out, not a lot of further info required there, he'll just have small scenes as per usual, and a fight scene as the goblin.

So really all they have to focus on is the Sandman and how he's involved in everything...Towards t he beggining of the spider-man series, he's just a thug that'll do whatever for the money, so it's feasable that he'll have been contracted by Harry - another storyline shrinking shortcut. I'm interested in how they'll have him develope his powers though.

The Eddie Brock character being incorporated as a secondary throughout the film won't be that hard (I personally think they might have him as simply a competing photographer which is KINDA true, or turn him into an obsessed fan of spider-man who feels ignored)...and turning him into venom at the end is no big thing, they don't have to show much at all...this film (if the black suit is as involved as the poster would have us convinced) will just be a precursor to the whole Venom thing...it'll probably be at the very end (eg - after spider-man in the "suit" near-kills or does kill Harry or Sandman, he decides he's gotta ditch it, Brock finds it...done.

Essentially, it'd be a fight, a new character introduced, another fight - potentially a "team-up" of two of the villains, and a little "venom" type scene at the end.
(I'm betting you'll see a few tendrils, and next to nothing else after Brock gets the suit, it'll all be in shadows, and you'll hear it hiss "Parrrrker" and/or laugh, and that'll be it)

Well they haven't really explored Connors' character a whole lot. I don't see how they can just start the movie off with him turning into the Lizard and fighting Spidey. If it does happen it'll be far too rushed, which is obviously the problem with having too many villians in one movie.

Whatever villain they have choosen its still going to be overkill!

Friday's shoot in Foley Square opposite the courthouse is postponed until possibly Saturday due to predicted rain. The crew is moving indoors to a cover set at an unknown location.

Directed by Sam Raimi, the third installment hits theaters on May 4, 2007. Sony Pictures is expected to release a teaser trailer in theaters with Superman Returns in just a few weeks.

In the pictures you see a sign that says "Thank You Spider-Man!"
This is really gay b/c most of the city is supposed to hate Spider-Man which is an aspect that I like about Spider-Man, he is not your traditional hero that society loves. I am losing faith in Rami.

in the comics spiderman had his fans ..
he also had ups as well as downs ...where he got public acclaim before jameson would publicly discredit him.

i wouldnt judge from a simple picture of a sign .. we have no idea what context its in.

i think raimi is very loyal to the comic ... one of the only directors that understands the source material.

most movie directors are completely disconnected .. Raimi is plugged in.

I agree with those statements about Rami, he did a perfect job on the first 2 but all these reports of 4 villains, MJ dieing, the Stacey's, it just fells like overkill.

stacy did die ... in a scenario used in spiderman 1 (a choice between a lot of people dying or her - and he failed to save them both)

MJ never died that i'm aware of ...


maybe he tried to combine gwen and stacy before realizing the series would take off and have such a huge demand - and not realizing he would have the licence to follow the comic storylines as close as he wanted to and still be successful

Yeah, I don't think the public at large have ever REALLY hated him in the comics I've read, they just get mislead every few issues or so...less than that really, but yeah.

Kind of...it was the same scenario, but the way I got it (which was albeit a later issue "recalling" the event from a cops point of view) was that he threw her off the bridge after stunning spiderman somehow, who ended up leaping over the edge after her, shot one webline up to the bridge, one down to the falling Gwen stacy, but he didn't time it right and when the webline went taut, it snapped her neck.



shit, here I was hoping to see some GOOD set pics...ah well...

i remembered that (the neck snapping) .. and i might be foggy (i havent read it since i was a kid) but i though he had other people to save too which is what made him late ..

i could be completely wrong though .. i can barely remember what i did yesterday ,,

Haden Church on Spider-Man 3 Villains
Source: 5p1d3r June 13, 2006

Scooper '5p1d3r' tells us that Thomas Haden Church talked briefly about the Spider-Man 3 villains:

I was listening to the Opie and Anthony Show (nationally syndicated) this morning and they had Thomas Hayden Church on the show. At the very end a caller asked how it was to play Sandman and what Venom would look like. After threatening an anvil on the caller's head for divulging information, he did briefly mentioned that he has been having a good time and had been filming for months. "A lot of sand and a lot of man."

*minor spoiler* He did say that Venom would look a lot like the comic book Venom and then they moved on.

I wonder then if he'll be black, or have the bluish hue that the comics have mainly represented...if he's going to look "a lot" like the comic book version, and sandman is to look at ALL decent, I REALLY hope their effects can cut it.
Although I'd imagine so...pretty good cg CAN be done nowadays, and the past two films have contained some excellent digital work (the spider-swinging, the fight scenes, the train thing, the oct-arms), I hope they stay on par.

spiderman 3 teaser

...did I see the Green Goblin ?

Is it wrong that I just watched the teaser 3 times in a row?

Holy crap this looks amazing:eek:

we have to make it through another shitty winter before it's released ?

looks pretty good...but did you see the Green Goblin ?

..or who is it ?

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5...1971/whos2.jpg
http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d5...an1971/who.jpg

holy hell, i cant wait. i seriously dont know what i am gonna do but i cant wait until may of next fricken year to see this movie.

That aint THE Green Goblin of Spider-Man 1. Its the son who adopts the identity of his father of the first Spider man movie, Norman Osbourne or something? played by Willem Dafoe.

This is his son, who's Peter Parker's best bud, Harry Osbourne, playing Green Goblin in Spider Man 3. He is supposedly led to the edge of insanity and turns himself into his father's alter-ego, and sets out to destroy Spidey.


Awesome and neat little teaser. I saw it like 10-11 times. Cant wait till summer 2007.

i dont think the goblin is harry, in the trailer, a pumkin bomb explodes right next to his face.Thoughts anyone?

Does anyone know why Quicktime will not work. I have the current version but everytime I try to view a trailer the Quicktime film frame with a tear in the corner comes up.

explorer or firefox ?

Explorer

Damn my shitty non-video-playing computer. Looks like I'll have to get on my brother's ASAP.

me too and it works fine...but try and right click on the quick time icon on your taskbar...and select about quick time ...try and change some preferences

Looks pretty damn good. Wasn't a big fan of the first two...

I think the bomb might be a miss fire or else Harry had thrown a bomb and it came back at him. From the clips of the person on the glider I'd have to say its Harry. Whether or not he's going under the name of GG2 or Hobgoblin is in question.

Either way the teaser looks bad ass. And I take back a lot of doubts I had about this movie. I still say 3-4 villains is overkill. The biggest thing I thought was great was all of the ooz scenes and how Paker tries to lose the suit in the church like in the comic and its cool how he's riping it off instead of it just oozing off. The scene felt a little bit more dramatic because of that I thought.
