The Amazing Spider-Man Drag me to hell's effect on Spidey 4?

[rocco2216]

that would explain the well known actress audtioning for the role of felicia rumors that I am hearing about. Then again, it's just a rumor.

But would Allison Momon be considered "well known?" I suppose if she is in Spider-Man 4, I wonder if she would be Black Cat or just plain old Felicia Hardy.

 

[rocco2216]

someone give this person a spidey treat, we finally got a bingo here

Which means no more than two villains and one of them being the Lizard since they know that most fans want to see the Lizard in 4.

 

[sPiDeRmAn2o29]

So will SM4 be darker but with dark comedy mixed in with it l;ike Drag Me To Hell?....And also super natural creatures like Morbious or that demon villian(forget his name), Spiderman takes on?

its already been confirmed that morbious is out plus he isnt a ny centric villain.

she is pretty damn well known with movies like white orleander, big fish, matchstickmen, where the truth lies, and so many others. Sam always loves to use actors he has worked with in the past as well. rosemary harris and jk simmons from the gift ring a bell ?

the person who i heard it from said felicia, no idea if its felicia hardy or black cat then again its just probably a BS rumor.

Cause she's not in either scenario that you've heard. Cause she's not in either scenario that you've heard. Plus I heard that's one reason Kirsten Dunst signed on was cause there was no other girl but her for Peter.

Wasn't very impressed with Drag Me to Hell but I could see Raimi finding a role for Lohman. No doubt she would have replaced Dunst had she walked.

UPDATE

Drag Me To Hell's effect is starting to show on SM4 with Raimi switching director of photography Bill Pope for Peter Deming.

From Variety:

I missed out on seeing Drag Me To Hell when it was in theaters so i have no idea if this is a good decision or not. However i do plan on renting the dvd soon.

What exactly a director of photography does?
Does anyone know?

Drag Me To Hell

Hell = Devil
Devil = Mephisto in MARVEL
Mephisto + Spider-Man = One More Day

 

[Fresh Prince]

So Mephisto will be the main villian in SM4?....So will the film be dark, like Evil Dead dark or something?...Or Drag Me To Hell dark?

 

[AnorexicBatman]

You didn't get the joke did you? (Look up One More Day; Immense negative reaction from fans)
Also, please no grim-dark. Same tone as Iron Man. I want movie Spider-Man to be happy and make jokes and stuff.

to make the long story short the DOP is responsible for finding the right angles that will fit the setting on the film. Like for example... The dark knight film has a very dark themed setting and tone so you can give credit for the DOP for that job. I think they did an amazing job in drag me to hell and captured the right settings so we shall see how it works with spider-man 4. They also use various pieces of equipment and lighting to set the right tones. Also in charge for locations as to where it will fit the tone of the directors vision. They also have very limited time to work on a film so they depend on the DOP to do all of that. Hope that helps out.

Mephisto is not a spider-man villain nor a classic one so scratch him off. He did have a huge role in OMD but, not a choice. For ghostrider, it would make sense but for a live action spider-man film very very doubtful...

That's not entirely correct. The "DP" doesn't choose camera angles. That's the director's job. But once the choices are made, the DP, working with the gaffer, etc. make the shots work in practical form. Making sure the lighting is correct, the proper lenses and film stocks are selected to get the needed composition, figuring out how to shoot in a given location, that unlike a studio set, has no walls that can be moved around and so forth.

Of course, people are different and have different ways of working. I've certainly worked with directors who because of their uncertainty or laziness will leave it up to a skilled DP to choose camera angles, and many a DP has gone on to be a director themselves.

I heard the Kirsten Dunst thing from Infamous_Emijayne. I wouldn't be surprised if it was true lol. Plus I thought Sam didn't want Gwen in 3 did he? I would think the only love triangle Sam would go for if it's two women is Felicia Hardy/Black Cat.

 

[NinjaCarm]

Spider-Man 4 will not be good.

 

[rocco2216]

Spider-Man 4 will not be good.

How do you know? I know it's not common for the fourth film to be good but I look at Live Free or Die Hard as an example, and Terminator Salvation. Now a lot didn't like Terminator Salvation it seems but it was better than 3 I thought. And also they have Gary Ross writing the script so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

Because Sam Raimi is back that's how I know.

But you are right, Live Free or Die Hard was good as a fourth film.

Did you like Drag Me To Hell? Cause whatever edge he gained from that he's using for Spider-Man 4 so who knows. And I consider Live Free or Die Hard the second best of the Die Hard franchise after the first one.

Was Drag Me To Hell even any good?

I'm not surprised Raimi brought in Deming to replace Bill Pope as cinematographer for Spider-Man 4. Perhaps Deming's less expensive than Pope's asking fee is now (since he's technically done four superhero/comic-book movies plus the Matrix trilogy), or maybe Pope just didn't want to do Spidey a third time.

I've also noticed that J. Michael Riva is now the only production designer for Spider-Man 4 (and brought in his own art directors and set decorators as a result). Hopefully the changes keep with continuity but keep the fourth film fresh as a result.
