The Amazing Spider-Man 2 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 General Discussion - Part 5

... or uh.. white.

Yeah, which isn't green or yellow, so why would it be those colors if there isn't light for those colors to be absored by the white? White is every color, so it isn't going to just be green or yellow. Blue comes
from the darkness that surrounds the actual lightening bolt when it's released. It'll be stored all around Electro, very compactly, so that's why it'll give off a light blue. The oxygen in the air and the darkness of the night. During the day it might look a bit yellow, but not at night.

You're talking to a guy who's favorite color is green lol what super villian in CBMs have a costume? An actual costume. Loki doesn't, that's Asgardian atire, so it doesn't count. Red Skull wore black leather, Whiplash didn't have one. The Iron Monger wore the suit because that was his only way of getting power, and it wasn't really stand outish. Bane barely resembled his comic counterpart, the only one who did was Joker, but that sort of a given since he is, you know the Joker, he's senile and deranged. You can't really compare the MCU to this universe, different tone, different rules. Batman is dressed like a Bat because it's a symbol of fear that he created. Electro has yellow and green lightening for what? To just have it? One hand green, the other yellow? I mean come on.

Magneto, Dr. Doom (did and will again), and please... if Iron Monger doesn't count.. than neither does Iron Man... , Mandarin is clearly pretty theatrical in appearance with nods to his comic looks as well...

then there's Green Goblin, Venom, and New Goblin... and Lady Deathstrike

Sabretooth in X1 was clearly a costume as well..

There's nothing about AMZ's tone that is any different than Iron Man's or X-men's ...


the only difference is that the spider-man franchise is currently the only street level hero to have a movie... it makes zero sense for it to be ok for a hero to create a costume when given super abilities.. but not a villain who's put in the exact same situation.

again... what if the formula/experiment that's keeping Max "electric proof" and giving him his power (I assume he has to have had something happen to him) gives off a chemical that produces the colored electricity? it's a comic film.. it's not really rocket science.

Spider-Man created a costume to protect his identity. He needed a costume to put under his clothes so he could change quickly, rather than throwing on just a mask which would give him away considering he would be wearing the same clothes. Why would Dillion want to protect his identity if he's tired of being overlooked and shoved aside in the world?

Good point. Being powerful he'd want people to know exactly who he is.

AMZ spider-man did not create a costume and mask to protect his family.... if family protection was the first thing on his mind... he wouldn't of been so clumsy to have a label "peter parker's camera" on his camera.... or wouldn't of so easily unveiled himself to both Gwen and George Stacy either...


he donned the costume to put a little fear in the criminal he was chasing. it's about intimidation.



also... What kinda bank robber DOESNT wear a mask? they all fear getting caught. Why would a villain be any different?

Because why? Just to say "Hey guys in case you didn't notice this is Electro, we made his electricity green and yellow so you'd know!"?
The Electro in the comics turned blue, so it still resembles the comics, maybe not the images YOU want, but hey, no one told Webb he had only one particular choice available at the buffet.

the girl who went to the set yesterday updated on electro

the actual suit was like this, but not as 70s go-go outfit. it’s more skin tight with combat boots and no weird lighting neck cut

and his face was similar to the guy up top there. his eyes were a little darker, like you could still see the pupil, but still blue like that. and in the picture i saw he had a very solemn face
nonetheless, the character looked amazing and i’m not really doing it justice

meh ultimate comics.. which Ultimate electro is pretty lame.

also.. welcome to the hype.. where we all have opinions and are allowed to have them. Maybe you should let Webb speak for himself rather than assume things

Uh, because a super villian has SUPER POWERS. Who'd want to mess with the guy who had electricty shooting out of his body?
If Electro isn't really able to fully contain his powers, what good would a mask do? "Hey, I wonder if that guy with the electrcity pouring out of his eyes is the same guy who robbed that bank the other day in that funny a** green and yellow costume? Who taught that dude color coordination?"

this is a pointless argument anyway.. considering i've now stated 3 times... that i don't want electro to wear a mask

YOU might think Ultimate Electro is lame. Welcome to the hype...where we all have opinions and are allowed to have them, including possibly the guy who heads the film we're talking about.

YOU'RE the one who just mentioned the bank robbers wearing masks thing lol and don't cop out dude "This is a pointless argument..." lol

and guess what... I'm allowed to have that opinion ........

 

[Joe_Kickass]

and guess what... I'm allowed to have that opinion ........

Exactly, and so am I and so is Marc Webb. No one ever said he couldn't take inspiration where he chooses it when it comes to the comics lol so there is no "right" or "wrong", because source material can be very general lol

 

[spideyboy_1111]

because i was talking about things in general... not specifically electro. Some Villains it's perfectly reasonable for them to wear masks.. others it's not.

electro doesn't need one. especially if he's the type of villain who wants to be known. Some might not want other villains gunning for them.

Can someone here post a manip of the second image (the blue one) with a fade on Electro? Lol

you don't get it... YOU ARE SPEAKING AS IF ON THE BEHALF OF MARC WEBB! we have no actual PROOF as to what he's doing yet other than "black suit"

The girl said he had blue electricty covering his face, and that could be a possibilty, so I'm saying this as one. If that's what Webb chooses to do, no one can say it's wrong since it is faithful to the "source material"

 

[Joe_Kickass]

Is that *gasps* blue? Looks sleek, like the new logo as well, O for OS and C for CORP.

that is what's called "rumor" not fact... i'm sorry.. but i don't believe her, there's no logical reason for a security guard to be taking photo's of concept art. I (as should most of you) take it with a grain of salt. Not proof

 

[Joe_Kickass]

OS of course being short for Osborn and CORP for corporation.

 

[TheWallCrawler]

I have no idea what's going on. What do we know about Electro all of a sudden?

basically that Electro has a skin tight black suit with combat boots and no "lightning cut" on the collar, and he's head is blisteringly blue

also, Rhino apparently has a practical suit
