World Official Green Goblin Appreciation Thread

Impressive vid.

(My only nitpick, and it's only due to personal preference: I really want to replace all the Ultimate Goblin pics with something more Classic, or movieverse.)

 

[Hobgoblin]

Yeah, fun to watch isnt it?

My only complaint is that they only used stills. Scenes from the cartoons or movie would have been better.

 

[greedyslayer]

I really enjoyed the song--and it fit so well.

Loved the "do it all for free--your tears are all the pay I'll ever need" & "the devil tips his hat to me" lines.

Moving scenes would've been cool, definitely from the movie and the cartoon--ooh, even the new Spectacular.

(As for fanworks though, I have no idea how to make vids; I stick with writing fanfiction.)

 

[Mutagen]

I love this video. Nuff said. t:

That song is really fun.

Anyone know about Emily, Norman's dead wife and of course Harry's mom?

Based on how little she's actually refered to in the comics (I have one of probably the only 2 story arcs that even mention her), I don't know how many Green Goblin fans actually know about her.

But, apparently, she appears in Spectacular Spider-Man (but I'm not sure how I feel about her appearance there, whether I like it or not--but that's probably a topic for another post some other time); I don't think it's her per se in the Ultimate comics--there's a wife to Norman in current Spidey time, sure, but I'm pretty sure her name's not Emily (and I don't recall her ever appearing on-panel, and only being somewhat significant for dying pretty much off-panel at the hands of Norman--which is another thing I have issue with in the Ultimateverse, but, again, that's probably a topic for some other post).

Anyway, there's actually a bunch of discussion on the late Emily Osborn that I'm thinking of in Green Goblin articles on www.spideykicksbutt.com, for anyone who's interested.

 

[Hobgoblin]

Definitely tell us about Emily. She is a big mystery in the Osborn family. Yes, she was breifly in Spectacular Spider-Man but she didnt even speak. Some of her history with Norman was mentioned in the Return (Revenge?) of the Green Goblin mini series. The one in 2000 where Norman fall for Kolina, his nurse.


Unrelated, but a MUST image for any Goblin thread.

 

[greedyslayer]

We should always sidetrack into awesome stuff.

That's the one story arc I own with Emily, the Revenge TPB.

Up to me to bring Emily info? Well, I only have interesting speculation--there's just not that much concrete info on her. Here's a direct link to a skb article that has a large chunk dealing with her, if you scroll down a bit; I reference the website so much since that is where I get most Emily info, and most GG info, and it's just generally fun:

Dealing with Harry, this article goes WAY back into his origin, down to Norman/Emily love...t:

 

[Spider-Man '92]

Green Goblin, definitly one of my favorite villains. He's probably, in my opnion, Spider-Man's arch foe. Being there from the beginning, always destroying his life, and hurting those he cares about, none can compare to the Green Goblin.

Monumental moment. 'Nuff said!

6/10.

I'd have to be a die hard fan of Gobby to know stuff like when he told his lawyer not to get her panties in a bunch

Guilty as charged. At least I didnt mention Sins Past.

 

[Jack O Lantern]

8/10.

I got the panty in the bunch one wrong and the name of his nurse.

Did Alex Ross do a version of Gwen's death? If so anyone gor a link?

 

[Hobgoblin]

This was the best I could find.

And some other cool stuff.

And who can blame Norman for being attracted to Gwen?

Cool!

 

[BizarroAids]

Eh, I scored 60%...which isn't horribly bad. I do love the Goblin, but some of those were a "smack your head" after you figured out the answer.

I should have gone with my instinct on where the nurse was from.

 

[Hobgoblin]

Hm, I was wondering how people were liking the quiz questions. I tried to make some easy ansd some at the "How the blazes do you expect me to know this?" level.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Oh I really can't wait until the Green Goblin and Menace face off in BND. Personally, I think Green Goblin will kick Menace's butt, but we'll just have to wait and see.

 

[Hobgoblin]

Norman better beat Menace. There is something seriously wrong if he can take on several of the Thunderbolts and win but gets beaten by a Goblin wannabe.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^yeah, though, I like Menace.

 

[Orest]

Face off!! Spidey and the GG

Harry is the new Green Goblin

Spidey about to kick Menace's a$$

Hey, sorry if I took up so much space for the thread but I found these awesome pics of Green Goblin and the Menace.
