Yeah, true. I guess I was being charitable.Johnny Novgorod said:I wouldn't cast Green Goblin either, and he's arguably in 4 of the 5 Spidey movies.
At least it's not 5/5.
Well, they announced one, but it was tied to the Amazing line and it seems they're scrapping that to work with the MCU deal.Johnny Novgorod said:Is a Sinister Six movie completely out of the question at this point? Weren't they hinting at one by the end of the last movie?
I like Kraven, but he's not my choice for first major villain.WolfThomas said:No love for Kraven the Hunter?
I really do hope they decide to set up Venom, rather than just going "so...Venom?"kitsunefather said:I'd like an introduction of Eddie Brock, and an end that hints at the symbiote, in regards to Venom, so that we don't just have "LOOK VENOM", which is part of what I think killed Venom's arc (non-arc) in the execrable SM3.
As for villains, I'd like a bunch of lesser villains or one-offs here and there (Humbug, Frog-Man, Paste-Pot Pete, I'm looking at you), essentially showing that Spidey's already got the swing (pun intended) of things down; then lead to the Tinker as the main villain.
Maybe establish Black Cat, and have her be part of the moral conflict arc that seems to be ingrained into the Black Suit now, in the next movie.
Barring that, I'd like a team-up of villains wrecking SM's profile; like Chameleon and Mysterio joining forces.
If it has to be one villain, though, my vote's for Scorpion; a character literally created to take down SM, funded by JJJ himself (though likely not in the movie version, possibly an attempt to recreate the Super Soldier Serum by AIM or Hydra).
Or, fuck it. The Jackal. Set up the Clone Saga now, so it isn't a surprise in 3 movies.
One of the things I liked with Amazing Spider-Man 2 was that Rhino's first appearance was done as "another day in the life of the Amazing Spider-Man."
Of course, they then pissed me off with the follow-up.
I actually like the idea of showing Spider-Man beating some "easy" villains. It could even be interesting to see what happens when Spider-Man does fight someone more on his level, maybe even getting defeated (a la his first major defeat at the hands of Doctor Octopus). Hell, he could even get a pep talk from Captain America. I hear he and Human Torch are pretty similar....
