Sequels Dear Raimi: Here's a to don't list

ahahahaha Ultimate Justin wants a Spider-Man X movie set in outer space

 

[The Joker]

Dear Raimi,
Can we have a spidey movie where spidey saves someone other than his gf from the villain? I mean can he save the city, a cop, another woman, a dog, a group of hostages anything but his gf.

Well, he did save Gwen Stacy, and a train full of people.

 

[Bnightwing]

Show villains not as the actual villains just yet but sort of foreshadowing such as while Peter is passing a film production going on NYC have someone say something like "YOU HAVEN"T HERD THE LAST OF QUENTIN BECK!!" just an example

 

[Finlandman]

No more cartoony/"good" supervillains like Green Goblin, Doc Ock or Sandman.

Mature tone.

Bye, bye Dunst.

MJ needs to be more like a comicbook-MJ, and less like the-girl-next-door-MJ.

Wisecracking Spidey is a must.

Marvel, don't make anymore Spider-Man films for at least seven years. Wait that time, and then make an appropriate Spider-Man trilogy.

 

[[A]]

Mature tone.

Yeah.. I wish

 

[christhn]

No more New Yorkers stand together cheesiness. We get it already.

 

[Finlandman]

Yeah.. I wish

They managed to make Iron Man mature with still having sense of fun. They should be cabable of doing it here.

 

[Sawyer]

Dont f*** up Venom. Oh, wait...

I just don't see it.. for some reason..

Dont f*** up Venom. Oh, wait...

 

[Project862006]

spider man has always been a children based superhero iron man is an alcoholic spiderman is'nt

 

[WarrenPeace2012]

Isn't Mary Jane supposed to be a hot supermodel type chick? Who thought it would be a good idea for Dunst to fill that role?

 

[Sawyer]

No idea. She's attractive, just not MJ level hotness.

 

[American_Hobo]

Dont f*** up Venom. Oh, wait...

already happened

 

[American_Hobo]

oh and dont screw up Carnage (if Raimi will ever use him)

 

[MonBeeb]

Pretty sure carnage will be delegated to the Venom spin-off, if anything.

 

[bgates87]

Here's my idea: wait 7 years and reboot the franchise with a brand new director and brand new cast, and use most of the ideas in this thread as guidelines for the new franchise (except you should be able to use MJ as a damsel in distress, but only ONCE and not in the first movie.)

If you must make another movie right away though, here's some ideas:

1. Develop Dr. Connor's character and give us The Lizard.
... JUST The Lizard. If you want to introduce some other characters in a minor role like Black Cat or Kraven that's fine but just pick one main villain for the next film and commit to him/her.

2. Don't use MJ as a damsel in distress.
... But if you do, go for the big shocker and actually kill her off.

3. KEEP THE MASK ON.
... I think that's pretty self-explanatory. This applies to villains as well.

4. Stick to the source material.
... There's a reason why this is one of most popular comic book series of all time.

I don't know about the Dear Raimi proposal, but I have a Dear Sony one.

Spoiler

Dear Sony:

Give the full Spider-man rights back to Marvel. They're experts at utilizing their own properties. You had a great run and did a good job, but it's really for the best.

**** me, you say? Multi-billion dollar franchise? Well, okay, I tried.

Oh, please don't use conversations about slumber-inducing poetry to showcase Parker's attempt at romance.

Please use another plot development besides the 'damsel in distress' routine to drive the action.

Please give triple J a decent amount of screen time because you can't go wrong doing that.

Please ensure that Parker doesn't take off his mask. Ever again. SM2 New Yorkers are not that faithful. Hundreds of camera phone pics later, he would've been outed like A-Rod.

Please use the next 3 years to make this film as awesome as possible so I don't have to dwell on '07 anymore.

PLEASE USE THE LIZARD AT SOME POINT AND FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS AND ISN'T: PLEASE DON'T MAKE BRUCE CAMPBELL MYSTERIO. LOVE HIM. NOT AS THE VILLAIN.

Thanks.

'07 .............in space


I don't see the growth. I see regression, but that's not a positive growth. It's more like herpes. simplex 2.

Spidey catchin' a case in outer space.

Starring:

John Cusack as Peter Parker
Molly Ringwald as Mary Jane Watson
Debbie Harry as Gwen Stacy
Anthony Michael Hall as Eddie Brock
Keanu Reeves as Kurt Connors
Tina Fey as Mrs. Kurt Connors

and you get the general idea at this point.

Spidey and his amazing friends head cross-galaxy on a quest of not so earthly proportions. His mission? SAVE THE UNIVERSE FROM ITSELF!!! Can enough gravity-consuming, web-inducing, species pollutin', 'whoa, I can see my hands; am I really here Keanu pondering, woefully inaccurate mayhem be contained in one film? Yes. Yes it can.

SPIDER-MAN: SPACE IS OUT THERE

*cut to part where Cusack holds up boombox for Ringwald to show her that he doesn't want her to think that he wants to push her away*

*lighters*

*SW stealing shot of the Spider-ship passing over the planet*

*ending credits*

*headlines: Spidey's back*

Spoiler

Or we could take a 45 to that idea and remember to think about what jolly james says.

Spoiler

Spider-man TAS knows all. If you are too lazy to read comics, consult it. It is consulting with many a mind that it has enlightened. Before you watch, you're Morph. After you watch, you're Professor X, and not in an X-tina kind of way. In an eXtremely knowledgeable 'now I can contribute' as a fan of some storylines.

here is what raimi needs to do,"LEAVE SPIDER-MAN ALONE" go do a scream movie or something!!!!

 

[LightningFlash]

Dear Sam Raimi,

Don't direct.

Or produce.

Or write.

Just don't be involved in the movie.

And take Maguire and Dunst with ya.

[Vile]

No Kraven.

A cliched character who's only contribution to the comic books was sucking on the end of a shotgun and painting the walls with his brains.

He's lame. His look is equally lame. If you suddenly have an itching for Kraven, think twice and give us The Spot. Atleast he has interdimensional portals.

 

[LightningFlash]

OK, but if that happens, he can't be peter parker.

Spider-Man doesnt kill.
And yes, he does cry.

That is true...he's not badass like Iron Man or Batman...

Wishful thinking at it's finest.
