Sequels Should there even be a Fourth movie?

[Hectorminator]

The movies should still be about Peter, but they should be more about his responsibility towards the city, not just in his personal problems that just happen to be tied to some sort of wider-scale peril. The movies should start focusing on his role as a hero - that is enough to put him at odds against a villain; there needn't be some sort of personal connection (and this is the only reason why I would actually not want to see the Lizard next).

I partly agree with this, partly disagree. I think it's great when Spider-Man fights random crime, just guys trying to rob a bank, or villains with no personal connection to him. On the other hand, part of what makes Spider-Man stories so great are the relationships he has with his supporting cast, and the way that the soap-opera drama plays out. Like it or not, Spidey's strongest villains are all really closely connected to him, and I think that's why people wanna see the Lizard more than any other villain. It adds to the tragedy of the story. Look at Iron Man, Obadiah Stane was Tony Stark's mentor. Look at Batman Begins, Ducard was Bruce Wayne's teacher.

So bottom line, the main villain should be connected to Peter Parker, but that doesn't mean that every villain featured should be changed to make him connected, like Sandman. Throw some extra random bad guys in there, Kraven, Vulture, Electro, whatever.

Sorry, but Mary Jane must die. Their love triangle bullcrap is so old now.

There is no way in hell they are ever killing MJ, but I do agree with you about the love triangle crap.

 

[The Black Goo]

I think 4 should be all Connors/Lizard in the end he gets away. 5 should be Kraven coming to hunt the Lizard, giving Kraven the main villain status and make Lizard secondary villain e.g. Venom.

 

[bullets]

There defenitley should be a fourth film. There are so many more stories to tell between MJ, Peter, Gwen, Aunt May and more Villians to use such as Lizard, Kraven, Vulture, Electro, Mysterio, etc.

there absolutely should but hopefully they can restore faith to the franchise. im hoping for six spidermans like sony promised.



although i'd really liek to see the franchise in the hands of marvel studios

 

[Leenie]

I want one more movie.

It's time for the Lizard.

 

[anrrd_2]

i want atleast 2 more....i personally think they have spent som much time (maybe not screentime, but real life time) setting up the lizard that his time as villian should span 2 films.

lizard and hobgoblin in the 4th....

Rod kingsley breaks into the now deserted osbourne house, steals the technology...peter is now Dr. connors assisstant, the dr. is researching south american reptiles for various reasons (peter doesnt know about connors attempting to get hisd arm back) and becomes the liazrd on night while peter is away doing spidey things.....maryjane is away in cali pursuing the acting thing, peter and gwen make up and become an item....hobgoblin kills her the way that green goblin should have. spider-man goes crazy (he doesnt cry at all! no more tears...he just freaks out!) and beats the hell out of HG....he even accedentally kills him (maybe...too much?)...crazy cliff hanger in the end as lizard escapes to the sewers.


5th movie is lizard and kraven...the story writes itself


lizard and

 

[Grievous]

I think Lizard should be in 4 for sure but what is to become of the small symbiote that Dr.Connors has?

anti venom?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? haha i kidd i kidd

 

[awesomeman500]

My thought is, wait a few years than re-do Spider-Man 3 PROPERLY. Then we'll see.

 

[Visionary]

Venom's dead, that's as proper as it gets.

 

[S.A.A.D.]

Folks,I am a Spiderman fan,but not as big as one like most people are here. I found the Spiderman movies really bad for some reasons,so having said that I am 98% against the idea of a 4th Spiderman movie. The movie themselves seem to have also decreased the amount of fondness I have for Spiderman as well. Oh and by the way,Batman is basically my fav superhero.

 

[Frodo]

There is no way in hell they are ever killing MJ, but I do agree with you about the love triangle crap.

Ditto here Visonary. Either have MJ or get a new love interest but no new love triangle. It's tired . They did it in the first 3 . There's no need to play phone tag or have Pete looking heart broken again.

As 4 a villian Lizard is the guy. You have a great wealth of stories and emotion you can bring to the table.

Maybe with the Vulture as the other one, but if it's him , I think their stories must be connected somehow not this random stuff they did in S3.

If they do have Vulture Ben Kingsley would be a frontrunner if not him maybe a smaller name like Bill Nighly.

 

[anrrd_2]

i hope in the next trilogy the take mary jane out of the 4th...have her away in cali persuing her acting career...her and peter are still friends but nothing more. during the movie he makes up with gwen and they even begin to date regularly. then in the 5th film you introduce the hobgoblin as the villian. at the climax of the film the hobgoblin throughs gwen off of the bridge in a way that is eerily similar to MJ in sm1. but hobgoblin prevents spidey from saving her. MJ, who was coming home to suprise peter, was on the bidge witnessing the whole thing. qwens death drives peter crazy (no tears!!! just fury!) and peter chases hobgoblin...the fight, and peter accidentely kills him (its done in a way that leaves people wondering just how "accidental" it was). MJ is there to comfort him after gwens death, but he pushes her away. then in the 6th movie you have MJ trying to get peter back (and NOT the other way around)

3 movies without ANY peter chasing MJ subplot, and yet her presence in the films is just as strong as it was in the first trilogy.

Oh no, what ever shall we do, he's 98% against a SM4 movie being made, that's it, let's tell Sony to call it off.

 

[BatFitz]

I'm all for a fourth with The Lizard as a villian. Though, at the rate these movies are going, there's going to probably be more than one villian in it. I can't really think of one. Kraven would be an interesting (but cheesy one). OR how about Mysterio? It would add more to the story for Spider-Man being a celebrity. (Even though they used that angle in 3...)

 

[Venom 1988]

Kraven would be an interesting (but cheesy one).

How so?

 

[DACrowe]

Tehre will be a fourth movie? Should there be and will it be good? Who knows? I just hope they don't **** up my favorite villain, the Lizard.

But recasting and getting a new crew to do the movie on the fourth installment will limit the talent pool that would be interested and potentially could limit the film into being viewed as a cash-in sequel. I could see SM4 being as souless as X3.

But with such a good screenwriter I hope it is reinvented like BB. Not as in it being a reboot, but a continuation of SM3 but in an entirely new and exciting direction. Only time will tell, though.

I think we'll get something along the lines of what TIH is right now... revamp... the fact that the GP still think its a sequel doesn't bode well... except TIH isn't re-doing the origin so none of that matters anyway. Frankly I don't think it will matters to the GP even if they notice any contradictions in that no one really remembers anything in ANg Lee's version. I want a total revamp without major contradictions. New characters and villains. Lizard can still be the villain but that isn't the point. Since they'll recast down the line I don't even think the supporting cast is necessary. Might as well get new people for Simmons and Conners. They should wait till after Marvel is done making their new current batch of characters so sometime around 2012 would be good.

 

[Visionary]

2012, NOPE, that's too far off, 2011 is just fine.

 

[Killing Joke926]

They should consider making a SpiderMan 3 remake and giving an entirely different spin; after that becomes a big success like the first two, then we'll start talkin' a fourth SpiderMan installment.

 

[FaT_tONle]

2012, NOPE, that's too far off, 2011 is just fine.

Then they are going to have to lock up a release some time in June or something. Potter will take the memorial day release... WB hasn't made it official yet. I am just not sure what they intend to do with Batman... if Nolan decides to do another one then I don't think its worth getting another Spidey movie out there just for the hell of it.

 

[raider34r]

there are alot of stories yet to be told

theres so many cool villains yet to be done

lizard man, kraven,scorpion, hob goblin, carnage, electro

and other characters like Black Cat

we havent even started scratching the surface,

and stories DONT and SHOULDNT HAVE TO BE ABOUT PETER PARKER ALL THE TIME, THEY SHOULD BE MORE ABOUT SPIDER-MAN AS WELL!

we already know enough about peter

i hope theres another trilogy

 

[raider34r]

i hope theres a recast and and a new director becuz

Sam Raimi's spiderman movies dont satisfy me very much, i think they could been alot better, maybe a new director can do a better job

 

[Immortalfire]

Ain't no way that'll happen.

 

[Spider-Vader]

spider-man is more than the goblin legacy. 40 odd years have proved this. Also, spider-man is the most bankable superhero in cinematic history, so you can expect to see at the very least 25 spider-man movies in your life time.(slight exaggeration).

That'd be if it they didn't kill the villain every movie & they only had 1 villain per movie.
