I guess the trailer was pretty cool. With so many villians, I hope this is a pretty long movie. As I recall, the first spiderman movies had some ok length to them. I really wish Venom was getting more than ten minutes in though, I'm still so confused on how they are gonna cram so many villians into one movie, without cutting them short.

Brodie, it's great to see you react like a five year old to the points I raised, but to say I want a Spider-Man movie with The Kangeroo and those character etc shows you're too narrow-minded to even grasp the points I've added are valid, and are shared by other fans, all of whom will probably be fine seeing this movie knowing the principle villain for the most part is The Sandman, and the sublte one is the symbiote, whilst the characters you'll get turned on to won't get that much of a real scope as the main villain until the fourth

So you see my deluded friend, there's nothing to keep me from seeing this movie, Marvel ARE making the movies I want to see, where nothing is rushed and we still get a classic character. Venom won't be the entire focus of this one, hell to compensate Rami will have to give him a larger role in the fourth, but knowing him and his hatred of the character, he'll probably get his way and add The Lizard to keep the true Lee/Dikto fan that he is satisified.

So where exactly were you going with that pathetic "NA NA, Youz can't do anythingz about itz?"

Think, Mcfly, Think

And "pulling at straws" is your new word for someone expressing an opinion? Desperation from YOU? I LOVE it.

Can we show some more maturity on this board, and drop the "witty come-backs" and all that crap? Lets share our opinions and accept others, no matter how stupid or obnoxious they may appear to us...but just to get back on subject...How many of you really think a fourth movie will be made?

The third is basically doing nothing but setting up the fourth movie and tying up a few character arcs, everyone knows the fourth is being filmed back to back with the third.

So are you pretty much saying 3 and 4, are kinda like a 2 parter? Havent a lot of the cast decided to leave after the third movie?...wonder if that will lead to any main red heads being killed off in this one...kinda doubt it though. Where did you get this back to back filming info from?

...When it was first announced.

The franchise is supposed to be running for six movies, and MJ has been absent before in many of the comics through one reason or another, this may be her final movie (which is easily explainable given who Pete's flirting with in the trailer), and Gwen will pay the price for Spider-Man's heroism, then MJ will probably return in the final movie.

It's not so much acting like a five year old, I was just saying. I thought it was a pretty healthy little bicker thing we had going, in an interesting way. Not even hostile, which is cool. And where I was going with the "cant do anything about it" is about as far as I could, it's just the end of it. Sure, Venom is in it, and yeah, he'll get the shaft. I accept that. I'm just happy enough to see him be in it. I'd hate, and I'm sure other people would to, to see a franchise of Spider-Movies and not see how these guys would make Venom look and act.

It just would have been a downer, had he not been even in a little bit. People will be mad he's not getting an entire movie, I'm a little bothered by it, but it's better than no Venom at all.

Atleast I think so.

And it's funny the two of us, are commenting about people's opinions, is it not?

And Kudos to the McFly comment.(Actual nickname when I worked at a video store.)

the first pic of venom and sandman


the special effects look great but who is the kid sandman trying to protect

and news from the comic-con panal from
Quote:
aint it cool news:

Quint has seen VENOM!!! SPIDER-MAN 3 Comic-Con panel!!!


Ahoy, squirts! Quint here from the floor at Comic-Con. I just saw the SPIDER-MAN 3 presentation and had to tell you about.

Panel included Sam Raimi, Thomas Hayden Church, Kirsten Dunst, Tobey Maguire, Bryce Dallas Howard and Topher Grace. They teased us about not bringing footage, then finally unleashed upon us.

Guys, Venom is ****ing great... Let's start with him...

The footage opened with Topher dipping his fingers, crossing himself in a church. He looks completely distraught, eyes red... he looks like life has beaten him down. His voice wavers and he prays. He's alone in the church. He asks God for his help. "Please kill Peter Parker." Then a bunch of stuff happened that I'll get to in a second. The trailer ended with Topher and Venom.

There was a montage of quick clips of Tobey Maguire at the top of the bell tower ripping the black suit off him. The SPIDER-MAN 3 logo comes up and you think that's it... but then we saw some unfinished effects of the symbiote dripping down, falling towards Topher Grace who is looking up. One drop falls and hits his right hand, immediately wrapping around his hand. The bulk of the symbiote hits him and wraps around him, pulling him to the ground, totally engulfing him. A cut and the camera is low to the ground a good distance away. It Raimi-cams EVIL DEAD style towards the black bulking mass. As it gets near the mass, Venom's head whips up looking straight into camera, which doesn't slow down and ends up rushing into his mouth where it goes to black.

Venom's face. Exactly what you want to see. Big, big toothy mouth, bright white eyes. Looks just like the later McFarlane Venom face.

The design looks great, Topher was great in the church sequence as Brock... Count me totally psyched... I'm updating this story with the rest of the footage, but wanted to share the Venom stuff right away! Stay tuned!

Comic Con teaser!

Duende Fuerte from the Hype! -- praise that SONAVAGUN!!!! -- has finally revealed all the footage he gathered of the trailer. You can view it at the link here.

You actually see venom at the end -- part of him anyway. There's just a split second where they show his face. Dang, those eyes are HUGE, just like what they said about the later Todd McFarlane Venom.

This movie is gonna be SO AWESOME!!!!!

Venom hates you.

Yeah -- the guy was way in the back at the convention, plus his camcorder wouldn't zoom any further. Still, you can pretty much tell what's going on -- with venom's reflection in the mirror... and then at the very end, the fool assumes that the trailer is over and puts away his camera and barely gets a glimpse of venom's head.

But hey, the guy tried -- and from what I know, no one else in the audience recorded a thing, and if they did -- they're completely oblivious to sharing video files on the web. So I thank him for that.

EDIT: BTW, someone blew up some of the venom footage at the very end. You can't see his face very well in this little version, but the mouth is clearly visible, as it practically swallows the camera.

Why did they promise us a picture of Venom and give us one of Eddie.....

I may dislike Venom but I know enough about him that he is a symbiote until he attaches himself to Eddie, THEN they are Venom.

Not before like that picture

If you REALLY want to see Venom, view the trailer a couple of times -- watch for when Tobey opens his shirt in front of the mirror and he sees Venom's reflection, kind of like in the 90's cartoon. It is very brief, and is kind of distorted. Here are two frames of Venom in the mirror from the comic con trailer:


The disk-shaped white mass in the top frame is his eye. Then there's the pink gums and giant teeth below. (Further down in that same frame is what appears to be the giant white spider on the suit.) In the second frame, Venom spidey has lifted his head back and upwards.

BTW, YouTube has a slightly enhanced version of the second teaser trailer at ComicCon.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=xOuvCjzrxEA

While the picture quality may be better, this cuts off the best part of the original segment (link above) -- right when the recorder realizes that the trailer isn't over, and as soon as the camera whips back up to face the screen, you can see the last shot of venom's face before the next cut.

As for the Topher-changing-into-Venom wallpaper...

I think it's pretty cool, showing the symbiote attach itself to Brock -- we see its oozey tendrils penetrating his skin. Like hundreds of giant, black hookworms. A sure reason to scream the way he did in the trailer. Besides, if they showed us Venom NOW... I mean, they can't do that. Raimi loves to torture people, so don't be surprised/shocked at his evil tricks.

I am actually using the Eddie pic as my wallpaper.

I use a 1920 X 1080 resolution. If your monitor can handle it, Stretch the wallpaper over it. It distorts Eddie's face just enough to give him an 'American Werewolf in London' vibe due to his teeth.

Those aren't the final venom teeth, you twat! The desktop merely depicts the beginning of the Venom transformation. Look closely, and you'll see how the symbiote is going inside Brock through his skin -- doubtless is also causing bodily changes from the inside, such as teeth starting to sharpen/lengthen. Look at the freakin screencaps and see how huge the teeth are!!

Oh forget it. I don't even know what you're going on about any more... Venom will rule @$$, so will the SM3 and nothing's gonna change that.

Unless of course Raimi dying all of a sudden, or something equally tragic occurs...

I know they aren't the final teeth. Where did I say that?
The desktop skin is made for 4:3.
My laptop is widescreen.
This makes it stretch and look like Eddie is growing a slight snout. and because his teeth are a lot sharper then normal it looks more like the transformation in the movie 'An American Werewolf in London'

Yes the movie will rock
Please don't call me a twat.
