The Amazing Spider-Man The Lizard is The Villain!

Kraven is needed if just the Lizard, I can't see just a Lizard movie, with the same mentorship fatherlike villain only theme
 
:liz:

A good step in the right direction if you ask me, now hopefully they'll do him right.
 
Ahh not so sure how well Lizard will translate to film, but well see.
 
I love this! I do have doubts that he'll be the only villain, though. But I think I could be happy either way, tbh.
 
I want them to make Lizard done like they did Avatar.
 
Somewhere Dylan Baker is pounding a wall.

Yeah, I really feel bad for him. He totally got hosed by Sony. Nixed. F-ed.

Raimi too. In a way, I wish Raimi got his shot to make a 4th. I think he would've done Vulture and Lizard together seeing as how bad the fans wanted Connors to turn and how badly he wanted to use Vulture in "Spider-Man 3" but didn't get the chance because Sony wanted Venom so badly.

Oh well... this is a step in the right direction. I sort of agree with the whole 'Lizard can't work on his own' but then I also don't buy it. If Lizard can retain some human intelligence and speak, we can see the conflict between man and beast. Think "Wolf Man" or other movies where both sides are constantly battling each other. I think having Connors being obsessed with his research and work, making a breakthrough, transformation happens, he can't go back to his wife and kid because he's now a monster, and wanting to change back but can't due to this new body--- with also accidentally killing a few people under the influence of the Lizard, would make a compelling movie.

But if they want two villains, Lizard and Kraven are the ideal choices, but I think it should just be Lizard with Norman Osborne waiting in the shadows.

You must have not read the supposed plot for Raimis 4th film involving the Vulture, it sounded really bad like Batman and Robin bad. Theres a reason there rebooting it, even though i think its a stupid idea to reboot a franchise that isn't even that old.
 
Yeah once I read the whole he will need to play and emotional character that has a connection to parker I figured it would be Connors he'd be playing. Which to me is fantastic news, Lizzy is one of my fav villains so would be interesting to see him on screen.
 
Yeah, well I am not surprised he will be The Lizard. I think it's a great choice, with a deep story and also great action sequences! I can only pray that they won't blow it CGI-wise!:o

Also, I truly hope the movie will take place in College, I would preffer that instead of having it in High School and I do hope this part of the Article will turn out to be true:
Rumors persist that the Spider-Man reboot is actually set in college, not high school. The inclusion of Connors supports this – unless they’ve altered his origin as a college professor for the film
 
If this is true, awesome!!! I think this is the perfect choice idea having that it's all starting from the beginning. I think with a real hands on focus on the origin of Peter Parker becoming Spiderman and breaking into his tights while maintaing all of his social, academic, and business life is what we first need to see before any real dramatic villains come into play. This can also be the many beginnings of several characters as well that will soon benefit in upcomming films if the movie is a success, especially ones like Norman and Harry Osborn, Eddie Brock, the love triangle between Gwen Stacy and MJ (possibly Bettie from the DB, but I won't push that), and the despising hatred J. Jameson develops for Spiderman that can lead to whatever is uncalled for (possibly Scorpion).

And what better way to have a secret uninspired threat such as Dr. Connors evolving into the Lizard, and in a way intwining my similarities with Peter Parker becoming Spiderman and how he deals with his problem; or more simply to say, both coming from a similar background, but both going two completely different directions.

Hopefully Webb will go this way, because a new fresh start on Spidey is exactly what we need. :woot:

They could have Peter be a high schooler and have him also helping Connors at the lab after school...but you might be right...I prefer HS though..

:otto:
 
Slightly annoying that Pete will (presumably) have yet another villain in which he's personally connected, but apart from that Lizard's a decent enough choice.
