The Amazing Spider-Man Lizard's New Look: Verdict?--POLL

My favorite Lizard pics:

The coat adds a lot, in my opinion.

Awesome Lizard pics. Coat does add a lot. And at some point we will get the lab coat.

Where did you hear this?

No where. Connors has been confirmed to be in the game. But maybe not as a living person, maybe you collect audio tapes that he made before he died.

'Spider-Man' Director Explains Lizard's Role, Hints At Lab Coat Reveal

The Lizard's arrival on the big-screen has been an inevitability for quite some time now. Not too long ago, "Spider-Man" fans figured that actor Dylan Baker, who played Curt Connors in all three of Sam Raimi's flicks, would eventually transform into his scientist's reptilian alter-ego. That was not to be: the Raimi era was swept away in favor of Marc Webb's "Amazing Spider-Man" reboot, and now Welsh actor Rhys Ifans is the man with the scales.

It's no secret that Spider-Man has his fair share of awesome villains to slug it out with. So why did Webb feel that the Lizard was his best bet for his first "Spider-Man" movie? The answer, according to the director, was actually rather obvious once he honed in on the "Amazing" movie's central theme.


"There was a moment where I asked: what is this movie about? At the beginning of the movie, Peter Parker has a missing piece: his parents. It's this thing that's left him. His desire to find that motivates him and drives him and sets him on his path," Webb told MTV News recently. "For the Lizard, Doctor Connors has a missing arm, which sets him on his path. There's this symmetrical theme in Curt Connors being the literal embodiment of the movie's theme: we all have a missing piece. How we look to fill that void is how we define ourselves. It made sense. After I figured that out, it was a logical choice."

"Obviously, Curt's morality is looser than Peter's turns out to be, but their motivations are quite similar," Webb continued. "They just evolve and manifest themselves in different ways."

With Lizard's presence in the film explained, there's still a missing piece as far as we're concerned: the lab coat. Based on what little we've seen of the supervillain so far, it appears that Lizard's ditching his iconic white coat in favor of going commando. So is that it—no clothes for Connors' reptilian bad guy? Not so fast, true believer!

"That's a good question. Be patient, grasshopper," Webb told us when we asked about Lizard's coat. "[Regarding] the lab coat, be patient… you won't be disappointed."

Good enough for us!

Nice! If Webb disappoints me though, I'll write very mean comments about him on the internet!

Ok, so now it's pretty much confirmed that he will have the labcoat in one scene at least

This is great news.

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

This is great news.

Agreed, I'm hoping he'll have the snout by the end now since we're getting the coat for sure.

 

[VenomSpawn]

Nah I don't think we'll get the snout. They're just putting the labcoat in probably one or two scenes for fan service, they aren't going to change their actual design this late in the game.

 

[SpiderMarvelite]

Its good well get a shot of good scene with lab coat on to please the fanboys.

But overall his design is good to me.

 

[VenomSpawn]

I agree.

If Webb uses the labcoat on Lizard in some manner, then that'll be awesome. Nonetheless, I am someone who would understand if a giant lizard isn't wearing a coat around, so this is just an extra bonus of a Lizard I am already a fan of.

 

[UltimateWebhead]

Lizard wearing a lab coat. Win. (even if it's for a short while)

Exactly.

specially because the size of the lizard

 

[Web face]

Spidey looks like a little child in his hands

 

[Anno_Domini]

specially because the size of the lizard

Which is why I said a "giant lizard"....lol.

 

[AF3619]

Which is why I said a "giant lizard"....lol.

but not THAT giant, hehet:

 

[Spidey_62]

Told you guys we'd be getting the labcoat for at least one scene. The Mega Bloks sewer set has him wearing a labcoat only, and a Super Hero Squad figure has him wearing the labcoat only. I'm guessing then he'll have it for the sewer scene, the rest of the Mega Blok sets have no labcoat.

 

[PSYLENTGuardian]

Considering the fact that the central cast and crew has pretty much taken to heart all the factors that make the fanboys go wild in a good way, I assumed there'd be some kind of reference to the labcoat.

Good of Webb to confirm something t:

 

[TheWallCrawler]

specially because the size of the lizard

In this shot the lizard looks menacing as hell! I can't wait to see how this scene plays out

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

Do we know if The Lizard will go back into "human form", and change again? Or is it going to be The Lizard 24/7 after he transforms?

 

[Troy_Parker]

He changes back and forth. It'd be boring if he just changed once and was the Lizard for the rest of the movie.

 

[Web face]

How long would you guess each transformation would take? around a minute to a couple of minutes (in movie time, not real time) or just a couple of seconds?
I would prefer if it took like a minute.

 

[Oscorp]

I think he'll only wear the coat when he's still just "human with scales", but that's good enough for me! There's no logic in that huge beast having it.
