The Amazing Spider-Man Official Villian Casting & Discussion Thread

I hope this is true. Rhino actually has potential to be really cool.

At least it is better than black cat

let see a big huge idiot of a villain running thru walls chasing a superhero ....hmmmm....where have i seen that before.....oh yeah X-Men TLS ....Juggernaut maybe....no thanks bring on Electro and Lizard

Valeria is the name of Vulture's daughter.

 

[DarthDaveBanner]

Valeria is the name of Vulture's daughter.

Aha now this makes much more sense.

This is more like it, Raimi!

 

[Oscorp]

Vulture? Oh well, let's hope Electro or Scorpion is the other villain then.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Take this with a serious grain of salt but a member of the IGN Boards posted the following.

I doubting that's true.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

so, are we now thinking that the rumored, new editor of the Daily Bugles daughter, story, maybe, real. an this mystery “Viper” character is Toomes/Vulture ???
(sorry, for the spoiler, for anyone who did read tat article, should I black that part out?)

 

[Nightmare]

From Black Cat to Rhino To Vulture?

 

[DarthDaveBanner]

My odds are on Vulture. What are the odds that they'll be able to get Ben Kingsley back to play him?

 

[Kane52630]

i personally want to see Chameleon and Lizard
it should have Chameleon as the villain but have the Lizard be the main villian in the 3rd act. kinda like in Batman Begins

 

[Spider-Fan83]

I did have a Chameleon and Lizard story idea for 5
(well, actually it was more like Chameleon and Connors, taking place after the lizards story, at the time assuming lizard would be in 4)

 

[Rodrigo90]

A great combination...Walrus and Tombstone

 

[Spider-Fan]

I doubt Rhino is in it, and if he is, nothing more than a minor villain.

Vulture being a main I don't have a problem with, cause at least he can offer a dual threat with his mind, and not just have his winged suit be the threat.

Like I said in regard to Lizard in another thread, a lot of his story was given to Ock in SM2 (the family, accident gone bad, etc), so a lot of Lizard's upside as a villain has been done in SM2. Plus, he'd be another father figure turned evil (3 of 4 movies having one). I love the Lizard, and he is one of Spidey's best villains. But, I can see why they may opt to not use him.

 

[BestGirl]

It would be a shame though if we saw Connors and his relationship developed with Peter over 3-4 movies and we never saw a payoff in the form of the Lizard. I'm assuming this is the last movie with the present cast and SM5 will be a total recast.

 

[Spider-Fan]

In SM2 we saw a lot of their relationship, but it is not like we saw Connors do anything in SM3 other than study the symbiote. He wasn't giving Peter life advice or anything, so let's not romanticize his role in SM3. We saw him be a mentor in SM2, sure, but we didn't see it expand in SM3 and we saw a lot of Connor's story in Ock.

 

[zeptron]

And it'll be another villain who's not really a villain and gets redeemed at the end. Every villain except for Venom showed some goodness in them.

 

[HughJackFan420]

ok changing my mind

i'm calling it....Vulture main villain....Lizard villain/hero....Black Cat ally

 

[Van Petrol]

Do we really want the film to be overcrowded again. I'd say one main villain and Black Cat as an ally would be fine.

 

[HughJackFan420]

Do we really want the film to be overcrowded again. I'd say one main villain and Black Cat as an ally would be fine.

yeah your kind of right but this time around we have someone who's a friend from the jump which is Dr. Connors/Lizard who can also play an ally but I'm not sure how this would all play out. I'd be happy with Vulture and Black Cat. but since everyone including myself who are dying to see Dr. Connors transform into the Lizard and with all the rumors that's why i was going with this possibility. i'm just hoping there is some indication in the movie like a Venom cameo or cliffhanger for the Venom spin-off. How dare they try to kill off Venom he's Spidey's ying to his yang. Batman & Joker Superman & Lex Luthor do i need to go on....

 

[TheVelvetOnion]

Larry david as the vulture

 

[HughJackFan420]

i think Ben Kingsley is a better choice i mean he's the perfect age and he's bald...helluva an actor too

 

[GoldGoblin]

So Vulture is in,but why does he have a daughter in the movie,more love triangle stuff.Does anyone know is she is evil in the comics?

 

[Spider-Vader]

Larry david as the vulture

That would be so epic. Instead of actual fighting, they could throw remarks at each other. Then at the end, it could show Vulture getting arrested & while the cop car drives away you hear the Curb theme playing. t:

I don't think she was evil. And I don't think she'd be involved in a love triangle. They'd make him like Sandman alomst, trying to help his daughter somehow.

 

[I_am_iron_man]

In the comics, Valeria Toomes is a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. She's change her name in Valerie Jessup.

She's not evil, but i'm sure (if the rumors are true) Raimi has changed the background of Valeria for the movie.

 

[I_am_iron_man]

Another thing. In the comics, when Toomes re-became young his hair seems half-red. Maybe that toddler boy in Spider-Man 4...Is a young Toomes?
