Looks like he's constipated, but it's coming out the wrong way...

LOL! t:

Honestly, though, it does look really cool. The horn should just be longer.

 

[SymbioticToxin]

Yeah it does look good. A little weird (or constipated, as everyone is saying), but good none the less.

I'm everyone? sweet...

 

[Sentinel X]

^No, he does kind of look constipated, I'll admit...but I still think whoever did it, did an amazingly awesome job. He/she made Rhino look very sinister...thats definitely someone I wouldn't want to mess with!

tell you he truth i never knew Bruce Campbell was Mysterio LOL

 

[Hellion]

I still say Calypso...

 

[TheWrathOfGod]

I'd love to see Venom and Carnage done properly. But...the Lizard and Kraven are fine. It'd be great if Kraven blew his brains out in the movie (ala Last Hunt). t:

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Lizard & Kraven.


I would also love to see Vulture, Electro, Mysterio, Scorpion, Morbius, etc, as well. Obviously, not all in the same movie, but those are some of the Villains I'd like to see in upcoming Spider-Man films.

The Lizard is a given,but I've never been to fond of Kraven. Visually,I don't think he'd look too good on screen. I'm all for just one villain this time,but if another one is added I'd rather see someone like the Scorpion.

 

[venom892]

Kraven's last hunt adaptation with Lizard replacing Vermin.It be gold.

Kraven may look like a flamboyant lion tamer, but when in the right hands he can be a formidable foe for Spidey. Kraven's last hunt NEED'S to be the basis for the story if the character is used, lethal climax and all.



The Lizard would also work well with Kraven. Torment should be looked at in the development of the plot.





Raimi can redeem himself, but he's going to need to be careful when handling these characters.

 

[Spider-Ranger]

I really want to see Kraven battling Lizard battling Spidey!
This is the only way!

Imagine how many cool sequences "comic-direct-to-film" they could use. e.g. in Kraven's last hunt: spidey being buried alive then freeing himself from the coffin/grave! Wow! what a gorgeous Teaser trailer that might be!

 

[Cyclonus]

I want to see the return of Norman Osborn, and a new Goblin mask/outft. Have him put together the sinister six and manipulating them from the shadows to go after Spiderman.

I've always thought that Mcfarlane's version of the lizard would be the one that comes off the most intimatating on screen.

 

[bubbadoom]

Gotta be the Ditko Lizard! ASM #6 was the first Marvel I bought off the rack, and I have loved that Lizard ever since!

 

[spideyman101]

If Lizard's role wasn't already taken I'd say give it to Robert Sean Leonard! Good actor, looks the part, obviously has acting experience in the medical field (House).

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Well, I think it'll be the most logical one to use. I mean, look at TSSM's Lizard, he sort of resembles Macfarlane's Lizard. You know, with the mouth and all. I'm thinking we'll see something like that.

 

[DarthDaveBanner]

Lizard is a must.

Kraven I could take or leave.

Morbius?

 

[NewYorkSpider]

I don't want Morbius in this movie.

 

[chiefchirpa]

Lizard & Kraven are sympathetic villains. Don't we have enough of these kind in Spiderman?

Scorpion, with Lizard as the filler foe.

 

[chiefchirpa]

I just had a thought. For everyone saying that Scorpion to be in a movie, I don't think it will happen. I was thinking about it today, and I realized he'd be a copy of Ock to some people: I man who gets attacked to a metal monstrosity and causes trouble. As much as I'd love to have Scorpion in a movie I don't think it will happen.

Scorpion is needed because he's not your typical Spiderman series villain. He's a true evil, not a good/neutral guy forced by situation into evil. His tail can be made different from Doc Ock by becoming a zapper instead of a grappling pincer. Scorpion can be made as a superhuman Bullseye with his shooting tail but his strength is just as comparable as Spider-Man.

I agree Scorpion is a wise choice for a future film, a classic villain more badass than Kraven and less goofy than Vulture so the chances are good.

Plus no uneccessary changes will have to be made to make him a more interesting character.

 

[TheScarecrow]

Oh god, I hope it's not Morbius...

(a) I'm not that interested in him as a character.
(b) The circumstances of his villainy are a little too close to that of the Lizards - further encroaching on his story (like Doc Ock did) before he's used, or (if he is used) packing the movie with too much repetition.
