The Influence of Ultimate Spider-Man on the Reboot

[saiyanaida]

Bendis is the greatest writer since Stan Lee, and Ultimate Spiderman is a great comic. Bendis should write the screenplay!

You lost me with this opinion. Bendis is a very give or take writer. Sometime's he greatness. Other times he's just the worst writer at Marvel currently.

I agree. If they're going with the High School route, they have to base it off Ultimate Spider-Man!

[Gamma Goliath]

i would just take small elements from ultimate spidey. the ultimate was something new, but it bothered me, because i was so pre-established in the traditional stories.
if peter is in high school, i would make him 16-17 yrs old, 15 just felt sort of awkward to me

...Who turns Hawkeye into a murderous ninja! :woot:.... no wait, :csad:.

I like USM but this is a bad idea because:
1.) The title would sound stupid & something that belongs in the '90s. "Uuuuultimate Spider-Man , dude!!! Un-necessary pouches & big a** guns FTW!!!"
2.) Hulk- Green Goblin... 'nuff said.
3.) Stupid monster Venom...again, 'nuff said.

Though it should take bits & pieces from Ultimate Spidey.

[SuperFerret]

Venom's always been a big monster though. Honestly, I'd accept this more easily, mostly because, while I enjoyed USM, it's not my Spider-Man.

[Majik1387]

Because the Ultimate-verse sucks.

While it shouldnt be a direct adaptation, they would be greatly mistaken to not take some cues from it.

[NinjaCarm]

Base it off Spectacular Spider-Man, which is the best of both the original Spider-Man mythos and Ultimate Spider-Man.

Done.

[SuperFerret]

Interesting idea, what if the movie is a computer-animated (or even traditionally animated) feature?

[Spider-Fan]

Because that idea would suck.

Ultimate Spider-Man is good for what it is, but when it comes to Spider-Man on film, I'd prefer they try and adapt the 616 Spider-Man and as little Ultimate as possible. The Ultimate universe had some great ideas early on (it's utter crap now), but Spider-Man was not really improved in any way in the Ultimate world. Just look at their Gwen Stacy. Utter crap.

I don't want that to become the mainstream vision of Spidey. Draw inspiration from it, sure. But don't basically take USM and disregard everything else.

[SuperFerret]

I liked Ultimate Gwen, but she was very different from 616 Gwen.

[NinjaCarm]

Interesting idea, what if the movie is a computer-animated (or even traditionally animated) feature?

No thank sir, I prefer live action. The setup, characters, approach, action, etc, etc, of the new animated series. Not animated itself.:doh:

[Spider-Fan]

She did nothing but whine in the series. Even her death was useless.

I don't think Bendis had a real vision for her. Her death was random, and the only good thing that came from her was when the imposter Spidey killed her dad. But, that was only cool for like...3 issues. Then she was back to whiny.

I foudn her annoying.

[conan69]

"Bendis is the greatest writer since Stan Lee"

Uhhuh, better than Gerry Conway or Roger Stern?

Ugh.

Everything Ultimate Ive read, in a desperate attempt, simply because I miss reading comics, has completely sucked.

[saiyanaida]

They should mix Arc 1 and 2, since Goblin is the villian in arc 1
They should get The Kingpin, The Enforcers, Patsy Walker, Electro, The Shocker from Arc 2

[Pythagoras]

I say mix both 616 Spiderman and all the good elements of Ultimate Spiderman.

[Deaths Head II]

Heck no. Ultimate Spider-Man is enjoyable but it is in no way the definitive version. None of the Ultimate titles are.

Plus it had the absolute worst version of Kraven. :cmad:

[Pythagoras]

I agree. If they're going with the High School route, they have to base it off Ultimate Spider-Man!

They are gonna base it off of him in high school so they most likely will go down the Ultimate Spiderman route.

[Ipodman]

I want Ultimate Shocker... his Ultimate Design is really good for live action...

[Ipodman]

I want Ultimate Shocker... his Ultimate Design is really good for live action...

[saiyanaida]

Kingpin needs to be the villian

he needs web shooters

[DACMAN]

Rumor has it this new movie will be based on the Ultimate Spider-Man comics. What story arcs do you want to see? Me? I don't care what they do as long as they bring in Bendis. He will make this movie pure gold. Forget all the Raimi hate! Let's begin the Bendis love!!!!!

[Venom160]

Gonna go ahead and throw in my two cents before the "OmG UlTimATe SpIdeR-MaN SUXZ!!!!?!?!?!?!?!" idiots show up. I personally really like USM but I don't think they should devote the movie exclusively to USM's story but include pieces. For example alot of Peter's everyday interactions with his friends and other kids at Midtown High should be included. Say what you want bout Bendis but this guy has that kind of **** down.

Also I wouldn't mind seeing the Ultimate origin used for the movie. For those who haven't read it Pete was on a field trip to Ozcorp where he was bitten by a spider treated with an experimental version of the super soldier serum called OZ. This would be an awesome explanation if they decide to include this Spidey movie into the movieverse that the IM and Incredible Hulk movies have established.

I agree to an extent. Ultimate Spidey certainly got some things right and it would be stupid to overlook it completely. They have a fresh start now and so much history to use from all mediums... they should really take the best bits from all - makes sense, huh? I have to say though that a ful origin story to me seems a little bit overkill; a title sequence or a couple of well-placed flashbacks will be ample.

They cant put spidey into that universe because that universe is owned by Marvel and not Sony, its not like if they did put OZ into this movie that all of a sudden it will be referenced in the marvel films.

Done.
This

[Reikowolf]

Looking up USM history.

The first arc featured the Green Goblin
Followed by the revelation that the Kingpin was associated with the guy who killed Uncle Ben. Through the Kingpin, we are introduced to Electro, Shocker, the Enforcers

My thoughts are they will not feature Kingpin but instead, Mr. Big (Mid-level enforcer). We will also not get a goblin int he first movie as they may want to disassociate with the Raimi trilogy path.

IMO. This movie will be

Spider-Man Vs. The Enforcers (and their boss, who will not be Kingpin)

The enforcers might even take the route of the SSM series and have them as different rogues (Shocker, Rhino)

[SpaceWay2009]

I don't mind the Ultimate verse, but I prefer the classics. I just hope that they don't use too much ideas from the Ultimate verse.

[Immortalfire]

There are few things I hate more than Ultimate Marvel. Stick with the classic (real) edition of Spidey.

[Figs]

I'm a huge 616 fan and haven't really read any of the Ultimate comics so I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

I have a feeling the general audience might be a bit confused if the Ultimate version is a lot different than 616 Spidey. When BB came out, I can't remember how many times I heard a non comic reading person that was part of the GA, saying things like, "I thought that Joker killed Bruce's parents?"

[the_ultimate_evil]

if goblin hulks up in this film it's just not worth it

[Immortalfire]

When BB came out, I can't remember how many times I heard a non comic reading person that was part of the GA, saying things like, "I thought that Joker killed Bruce's parents?"

I had that happen several times...probably 5 different occasions I had to explain that this wasn't a prequel to Burton's film, nor is Joker the parents' killer.

[MikeFrost]

Yeah the Goblin is pretty much the sucky part of a Ultimate based movie. Aslong as they're able to distinguish from the cool and sucky aspects (Spectacular Spiderman did that wonderfully) we can have a cool movie.

Electro would be my main choice for a first villain.

[louiebling$]

Yea I want Electro Too :up:

part? how about the constant capture/rescues of MJ, the crap that was gwenage:doh: let alone the whole doc ock magneto hybrid

ultimate was a great comic but was is the main point there

[The Joker]

The Hollywood arc was the last great arc in USM, IMO. It all went downhill with the Carnage arc.

I don't know why they're choosing USM as an influence, when it's not even been around for a whole decade, and we've got over 40 years of 616 comics to choose from.

i had little hope for ultimate carnage bendis has went on the record a few times saying he has nothing but hatred for the character which is why he killed him off in new avengers

[Eggyman]

Yea I want Electro Too :up:

Me too. He has always been one of my favourites.

[Hannibal Smith]

I not a spider-man comic reader was more a X-Men and batman reader so was wondering how is Ultimate Spider-Man different from Raimi's spider-man films. I wonder if now with a revamp they could use Fisk aka The King Pin more like the 90 spider-man cartoon

[the_ultimate_evil]

honestly if the go the first ultimate arc, i would rather norman be the mastermind rather than kingpin. fox still owns the rights to him

[sdc10]

Because Peter in ultimate spider man is still in high school and dealing with high school issues while still being spidey, which is the tone/setting they want with the reboot

[Dangerous]

I'm just thinking since this is being based on USM, it's gonna be a horrible teen angst focused spider-wuss with organic webshooters who gets bitten by a genetically modified spider and fights enemies who look little like their comicbook counterparts.

Did I miss something?... That's what we just had from 2002-07.
Raimi's Spider-Man was WAY more USM than Amazing.

he has web shooters in USM :awesome:

[Dangerous]

That's one upside I guess.

It's been so long (9 yrs?) I think my brain blocked out the details, couldn't get past issue 15 it sucked so bad.

It actually went down for me with the Wolverine/Spidey swap issue. So terrible. I had a subscription so I remember everything after that was terrible.

[Figs]

Can any fan of the Ultimate version of Spider-Man answer this question for me?

How much different is Peter Parker from 616 to Ultimate? Is his personality pretty much the same?

[Doctor Jones]

He's a smartass still. He's characterized pretty well. I have some Ultimate comics, I haven't read them in a while. The ones I have are good. But from the stuff I heard from US I hope they don't use too much. They can still use some elements from it, but not much.

[Nathan]

I don't mind USM's high school and teen stuff, just stay away from the Ultimatized villains. Most have simply been horrible. Even Doc Ock, who started out great, ended as a 2nd rate Magneto.

[Nathan]

*double post*

[Artistsean]

I think they should use the Ultimate Spider-Man Comics somewhat, like how everything was updated to present day.
Like how Peter is a modern student living in modern day New York, or how everything used to be radiation and now its genetics. So I wouldn't mind those updates, having Peter have a cell phone. Having the Bugle have a website, digital camera. Having Peter bitten by a genetically altered spider, having Scorpion undergo gene splicing and genetic experiments. Stuff like that, but that's all.
I wouldn't change the basics of the characters, Green Goblin should still be a guy who wears a costume. Scorpion should still be a guy turned into a better version of Spider-man by Jameson. Electro should still be a guy who is electric. Some updates the ultimate comic made I can live with, like Doc Ock being altered somewhat genetically so that he can take a punch from Spider-man and not get splattered. I also like the idea of Kraven being the host of a Wild Animal Hunter show (not married to it though).
But I wouldn't make changes which would alter the characters too much, like I wouldn't turn the Goblin into a monster. All the characters should be updated, to fit with whats going on in the world, not changed just to make them Ultimate or different.

[Silvermoth]

I love the idea of the reboot following Ultimate Spider-man but at the same time I would want some changes. Mary Jane for example. I love that she was a party girl, a bit selfish and always trying to convince people she was more shallow than she actually was. I don't really want to see her become a geek.

Also the origin. I don't know how they're going to cover that because I just can't sit through another movie about Uncle Ben getting killed etc

[Rishi]

Definitely use the USM origin of Venom when the time comes.

I like the Ozcorp origin as well.

[DACMAN]

Bendis is the greatest writer since Stan Lee, and Ultimate Spiderman is a great comic. Bendis should write the screenplay!

:up:HECK:up:FREAKEN:up:YEAH:up:BABY!:up:

[GoldGoblin]

The Ultimate Goblins and Ultimate Shocker sucks,so I'm scared about that unless they change those things.

[DACMAN]

"Bendis is the greatest writer since Stan Lee"

Uhhuh, better than Gerry Conway or Roger Stern?

Ugh.

Everything Ultimate Ive read, in a desperate attempt, simply because I miss reading comics, has completely sucked.

Dude, Roger Stern sucked. What the heck are you smoking?

[DACMAN]

The Ultimate Goblins and Ultimate Shocker sucks,so I'm scared about that unless they change those things.

As long as they let Bendis fix the script, I couldn't care less about what they base it off of. Bendis writes Spider-Man so perfectly. I remember reading something from him when he was shown the script for the first Spider-Man film by Laura Ziskin and he said something about adding a line that had Spider-Man making fun of the Goblin's costume. Ziskin got upset and said "do you know how much money we spent on that costume?" And then Bendis said something like "well that's what he'd say."

That's why he's perfect to fix this script. Whether he writes it from scratch or just touches it up, he would make it perfect. Ever wonder why Iron Man's script was so amazing and witty? They let Bendis and Millar go at it. Don't believe me? It's on imdb.com

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0371746/trivia

Comic book writers Mark Millar, Brian Bendis, Joe Quesada, Tom Brevoort, Axel Alonzo and Ralph Macchio were commissioned by Jon Favreau to give advice on the script.


A real comic book writer or Raimi and his brother? Hmmm...:whatever:

[DACMAN]

Heck no. Ultimate Spider-Man is enjoyable but it is in no way the definitive version. None of the Ultimate titles are.

Plus it had the absolute worst version of Kraven. :cmad:

ARE YOU KIDDING!!!??? Worse than the Disney Kraven in Spectacular Spider-Man played by Simba?

He was cool until they had him turn into a Disney cartoon character.

The second season of Spectacular sucked as a whole. Mysterio was equally as terrible. The mech bats were pulled right out of a Disney cartoon show. It was awful. The only parts I remember enjoying was the return of Venom and the very last episode when they fixed the fact we all thought Harry was the Green Goblin.

[DACMAN]

There are few things I hate more than Ultimate Marvel. Stick with the classic (real) edition of Spidey.

Well the "real" Spider-Man isn't even the "real" Spider-Man anymore. So whatever.

[Spectacular23]

I for one agree with everybody on this thread that agree that they should use the bits & pieces from ultimate spider man. I'm a big ultimate fan and i love the ultimate universe. Actually i think this would be a great idea because webb and Bendis can put all of the things that Raimi missed in the film. I would like to see more actions scene and better and improved villains. I'm 1000% up on the mechanical web shooters and a major thing they could add that the last 3 spidey movies lack... Wisecracks and alot of jokes. That i would love. I just hope whoever plays him won't be to skinny or small because most villain just ask "what are you 12"? that could be one downside to it.

[Spectacular23]

NOt happy about the rumour of these movies going the Ultimate route.

[DACMAN]

My joy overshadows your discontent with the light of a thousand suns.

[Avengers-Report]

The high school route would not work out, if they were trying to go the Batman direction.

[Lord Blackbolt]

You lost me with this opinion. Bendis is a very give or take writer. Sometime's he greatness. Other times he's just the worst writer at Marvel currently.

Don't expect better action scenes than the earlier movies. Raimi had already proven he could direct action before spiderman....Webb...I don't think so. PLUS...he's working with only a fraction of the budget Raimi used. There's no way it will have the same scope.

Ah I loved the second season. What about the episodes with the gang war between Tombstone, Silvermane, and Doc Ock? Those three episodes, with everyone from Silver Sable to Roderick Kingsley to Rhino, were the best of the series, in my opinion.

[Avengers-Report]

I'm sure the action will be fine. Need I remind everyone that Peter Jackson directed one of film's greatest action adventure trilogies after directing The Frighteners?

Plus, the reason the budget is smaller is because the studio isn't paying for big names like Raimi, Maguire, Dunst, Dafoe, Molina, Church, or Franco. With every sequel, returning members went up.

But.. Jackson also did a number of movies including the insane zombie movie Dead alive. Plus frighteners had a lot of special effects and action. So it wasn't that big of a jump. He had the experience already.

Webb did a romantic comedy...

Does anyone remember the last time they did something like this with other comic franchises. Daredevil? Fantastic Four? all were directors who did light family fare and just couldn't handle the big scope movie.

You obviously have never seen the director's cut of Daredevil

[Deaths Head II]

All the DC really did was make the plot actually make sense. It still had a ton of flaws and I still think its a rather weak film. MSJ couldn't handle the big scope movie with Daredevil or Ghost Rider.

[Doctor Jones]

People here are still doubting Webb? I can't believe people first think of directors and how they'll handle the action. 500 Days of Summer is a cominc og age story, so is Spider-Man. The relationship between Tom and Summer felt honest and relatable while not feeling too angsty at all. If they're tackling the high school angle with all of this, Webb is a great fit. I'm sure he can pick up on the action.

[Spectacular23]

I have it. The director cut of the movie was good. The director made some smart hard making choices. But back on topic. I haven't really seen alot of Webb work. I wanna see what this guy got. Who knows he might surprise us.

I just watched 500 Days of Summer,and it is a great movie.The whole time I just imagined that the two main characters were Peter and Gwen/MJ and you just add some spidey action and you have a great spidey flick.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Dude, Roger Stern sucked. I completley disagree.
