The Amazing Spider-Man Official Villian Casting & Discussion Thread

[venom892]

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

Scorpion, with Lizard as the filler foe.

How is Kraven sympathetic?

 

[3dman27]

How is Kraven sympathetic?

maybe he's thinking of the TAS kraven

 

[Venom'sDad]

Honestly guys(gals), I would like to see Lizard, Kraven, Carnage, and Kingsley(as a prelude to Hobby). I know you all would understand why those villains given how Sam appear incapable of handling three villains yet alone a Symbiote. However, I think there is a grand opportunity for a great story here that can completely fulfill or live up to the very essence of all the characters... supporting and main characters.

I know you all can't possibly understand the angle of approach I have envision; and obviously, it is to involved, to try to explain the full scope of how events would play out. Neitherless, those are whom I would choose; and if it was ever possible, I would present this idea to Sam & Co.

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.

I like Scorpion because, excluding Venom, he is a good oposite for Spidey, the same abilities, but bigger. The scorpion is the spider's rival in the animal kingdom after all.

Go ahead Venom'sDad; I'm curious.

 

[Octoberist]

Lizard AND Scorpion

I second that.

dont expect an evil villain. Raimi just doesnt want this. it needs to be tragic.
you see..........new york in spiderman movies has no evil people. everyone is happy and sings '''la la la la la '' on the street.

then some day some experiment goes bad. and then some guy wants revenge.

Eddie Brock and Norman Osborn were evil.

^^Hmm, good point.

I believe Spider-Man 4 villains will be Morbius and Lizard. Bear with me:

Raimi confirmed there will be two villains in the movie. Lizard has been demanded by the fans since Spider-Man 2 and with Spider-Man 3's effect, It'd make sense to give the fans what they want in order to atract them.

Raimi has been talking alot about Morbius, and, as a horror director, It'd be understandable to choose him. Besides, Morbius is one of the classic villains, which Raimi prefers.

Morbius and Lizard's original are fairly scientifical, and quite similer (Both made experiences in animals who turned them in humanoid versions of them). It'd be easy to connect the two origins (Making Morbius Dr. Conners new assistant, perhaps?), and it would definetily be a interesting Plot.

That's my theory.

What do you think? t:

 

[weezerspider]

lets keep it to one or two villains instead of 5 (Sandman, Avi Arad, Venom, New Goblin, Sam Raimi). I'd like Lizard and Kraven.

Good theory. Morbius wouldn't be my first choice along Lizard, but I'd like to see him in a movie. I want to see him somewhat redeemed too, since the 90's Morbius ruined him IMO.

 

[Spidey-Quad]

^ It could all work revolving around the 4-armed story. Get it? Spider-Man....4

 

[SpeterMan3]

*gasp!* like how the movie's coming out 5-6-11... 5+6=11, 11+11=22, 2+2=4! (Did anybody understand that?)

[Spidey-Quad]

We cracked the secret story line OMG

 

[protocida]

Omg²

 

[SpeterMan3]

lol

 

[TKing]

Cameo by Shocker in the film's opening action sequence (played by a masked Brad Pitt)

A short cameo by Kitty Pryde (played by Ellen Page) in Doctor Connor's lab class -

(taking register)
CONNOR: Kitty Pryde?

KITTY PRYDE: Sir.

Peter and Kitty catch eyes, exchange a smirk.

Villains -

Lizard, of course played by Dylan Baker
Kraven, played deliciously by Javier Bardem

Btw, I have no experience of Spider-Man comics, these are just dream castings I would love to see within the fourth film

 

[GoldGoblin]

If Raimi doesn't want Kraven in the movie and wants Morbius instead of him,then don't force him to have Kraven in it.We saw how that turned out with Venom,and Venom is alot cooler than Kraven.

 

[Venom 1988]

and Venom is alot cooler than Kraven.

What does that have to do with anything?

 

[GoldGoblin]

^
If he is forced to put Kraven in the movie and has to take out Morbius,then it's like SM3 when he had to take out Vulture when he was forced to put Venom in.

And SM3 is a crappy movie,just imagine how SM4 would be with a forced in villain that isn't as cool as Venom.

 

[Metal Spidey]

How about Kingpin and Lizard? After seeing that Connors is the Lizard, Kingpin blackmails him into creating more of the serum so that he can have an unstoppable army of Lizards completely loyal to him. Along the line Kingpin asks Connors to betray Spider-Man's trust by luring him into a trap. This prompts Spider-Man to question if New York is worth saving if people like Doc. Connors can go sour and work for Kingpin.

If this doesn't make much sense it may be because it's 2:08 AM and I'm drifting to sleep. *yawn*

The Kingpin is owned by a seperate production company I believe.
