If ELECTRO is going to be in SPIDERMAN 3, which Electro do you want?


Classic:

Spiderman MTV:

Ultimate Spiderman:

Or some generic safe black costume Electro as in X-Men movies


I prefer the goofy-looking classic style. Sam Raimi could pull it off...

Actually, I prefer the blue costume from around the time of the Reboot (and the arc where Venom was getting his revenge on the Sinister Six for turning on him). For the movie, Raimi should go with a black leather suit like the Ultimate Electro one, but if he took a hint from Brian Singer over in the X-Men films and peppered the suit with some silver/dark blue lightning-patterned piping, it could and *would* look badass. The classic costume makes Electro look like some over-the-top nutjob, which he frankly doesn't need anymore of.

Someone should do some manips with this shot. I like the costume this way. Make the green darker, or maybe black. I like the yellow electricity, bu it would look good as blue, too.

I wanna see the Black leather look but not like a uniform kindal like a street biker look then have lightnig out of his eyes make him look like a cross between classic and mtv but no mtv hair.

PS
Liesse your avatar is really funky. Especially when your listening to techno song it went along perfectly with the beat trippy.

ultimate electro
because he had the best costume

I'd rather they try and do something new but that harkens back to his original look.

Maxwell Dillon was a professional electrician, right? Right. So, have his on-the-job uniform be something green, but not glaringly green, with yellow lightning bolt marks on it.

I hear Electro will be so powerful in controlling electro magnetic radiation, he'll render himself invisible for the entire film.

I think the green of Electro's suit should be the same costume as the armour that the Green Goblin wore in SM-1. The yellow could be visible power conduits criss-crossing over the suit, which shows the charge in electrical power by lighting up yellow whenever Topher is powering up or ready to strike. No mask, please. Instead of yellow gloves, have metal and wire covering Tophers forearms which would obviously be used to send out the electrical strikes.

.... but I will take him almost any way I can get him, including the star-mask. Any way except in that craptastic Mackie-era blue & white thing. That was awful.

I wish so much we could get Electro onscreen, I'd love to see him so much. :(

im not saying this as a person who hates electro's design (even though i do) but you cannot put that costume on in real life and be taken seriously. its the same reason hugh jackman isnt wearing the wolverine mask.

Electro is one of my favourites and it would be great to see him appear in a Spidey movie.

I like the yellow/black design but lose the star on head and you may have suitable Electro for movie.

Not against Venom but if Electro was chosen instead I would not be annoyed.

I'd actually prefer to see Electro or Mysterio before using Venom.

i'd go with the Ultimate look. the Classic look is cool in the comics and can come off as intimadating (check out the New Avengers "Breakout" for a great example) but bright green and yellow on screen would just be goofy. besides, the Green Goblin kind of has dibs on the colour green. look what they did to Ock, stripped him of all his green and he was better for it.

if i were in charge, i'd give him the Ultimate look and maybe for the climax of the film, has he became more and more supercharged, he would begin to look like the MTV version. i think that could look pretty cool, like a big blue Human Torch. :D

I'd HAVE to say the Ultimate Spider-Man Electro since in the last showdown level with Electro, I mean...when he's at FULL POWER he turns blue with electricity as WELL! :eek:

I like to see that Electo as a man with Eleco things behind his whole body,but not to much look like on a fire man,like the last picture look like. Mabey those things must be in the blue or white colour.

It would be great if a few of the skillful artists on these forums would both do upgraded movie costumes for both Electro and Mysterio.

Both are really colourful villains but similar to GG and Doc Ock and even Sandman they deserve to have a revamped outfit not too goofy for a future sequel.

I do like the black/yellow without spiked mask Electro.

Ultimate is the only way to not make him look hokey. It's a movie not a cartoon, not everything could exactly match the comics.

Cyclops
12-08-2006, 05:38 PM
That is only if you go strictly based on comicbook designs.

Like I said earlier in the thread (way long time ago), I think the best way to make Electro look believable is to have his costume be his electrician's uniform, a green jumpsuit with yellow lightning bolts on it.

I'm making fan-scripts for 4, 5, and 6

and in the 5th one Electro's in it.

I think it'd be cool if Electro at first wore a simple, black saftey suit, then when he become more known, he moved to green and yellow suit.

Mr. Marko
12-11-2006, 08:20 AM
I think they should just completely rework Electro. However, I personally highly doubt that Electro will be in #3, and I highly doubt that we will even get a #4. The story is done. We've covered both ends of the spectrum (hating being Spider-Man and having it consume him). What else you got? And don't just say more love jargon. I don't buys them craps.

spideyman101
12-11-2006, 10:36 AM
Mr. Marko, you aparently don't pay attention to the comics there's:

Kraven's Last Hunt (which is a thrill)

Harry's Last Battle (whichy I beleive will be done in 3)

Peter's Daughter's Birth and Death (Peter's daughter is born dead)

Aunt May's Death

Clone Saga

Civil Wars

Man-Spider

not to mention all the villain's stories.

you put all this different stuff in the mix, and you can get a pretty great movie.

what if in 4 MJ becomes pregnant, then Lizard kidnaps her, and hits her so hard that the baby inside her is injured, and dies, then she's born and she's dead. Then Peter realizes it's Lizard's fault, then there can be a hate-story between Peter and Lizard.

I'm writing a fan script of 4 and i'm incorporating a lot of this cool stuff in there.

The Ultimate look IS some safe generic black costume as in the X-men movies. Mark Bagley sucks.

I say go with a more real world design based on the original.

Not one of those stories you've listed would make for a good film, IMO.

Kraven's Last Hunt was too stolid and dark and had very little action. And the audience certainly wouldn't buy into the villain committing suicide before being defeated by the hero (One of the weaknesses of the storyline itself).

Similar with the others. Too dark and depressing for mainstream audiences (May's death? THE BABY'S DEATH????). Little opportunity for action setpieces (Think the train fight in Spidey 2).

Movies are only two hours long. Something as convoluted as The Clone Saga could never be condensed in a menaingful way in that time span. sure, you could do a movie with spidey being cloned, but all o the dramatic elements, built upon previous storylines wiould have to be jettisoned.

If GG could get away with looking like a foolish power ranger reject on screen whilst holding onto a slight shred of residual respect, then electro can pull off his 616 costume on screen. I dont care for how silly people may think he looks. What I do care about is adhereing closely to the original source material and being entertained at the same time.

The looks for a lot of characters are lame, but Electro is one of the worst. I'm more concerned with adhering closely to the source material's spirit and characters rather than their horrible costumes. I say change it to something like Ultimate but with a little more flair.

I like the look he had in the MTV show, but his origin was far different then from what we know. The ultimate look is good, and isnt abundantly yellow.


All in all, if we just continue with the spidey movies, Id love to see Electro.

I really dont see how Green Goblin looks like a power ranger, seeing as they look nothing alike. I understand that it doesnt looks great(though I dont mind it), but really now.

Green Goblin- green metal military suit, with a metal goblin mask
Power Ranger- white designed fabric(rubber, whatever it is), with a helmet.

I like this, but if ever Electro ever reached the screen, I don't think any costumes would matter, they'd probably make a costume from scratch
