The Empire Magazine has a fabulous cover but reading through those scans it's easy to see it's just a rehash of the same old Comic Con quotes we've already heard and read a bazillion times. Plus on the inside page there, they're using a pic of Tobey from his 2003 Biography magazine photo shoot. WHAT GIVES????

Yet they're billing it like it's a brand new sit down with the cast and director and ALL NEW stuff. False advertising at its best. They know we'll all go out and buy it anyway. And I'm no exception. t: I mean, look at that cover? How can I NOT?

Oh and to the dude who posted the HUMONGOUS PIC of Tobey and Spidey.....Geez, If I only I had a bigger monitor I could finally have myself a life-sized reproduction of Tobey Maguire. Damn. Too bad.

Seriously, can you make the pics just a wee bit smaller next time before posting them in here? It took me forever just to load that page.

The Los Angeles Times has a new article discussing Tobey's role as Tully in The Good German. In the article, Tobey talks about his role in Spider-man 3 a little bit as well as Venom's origin in the film.

EXCERPT:

At 27, he (Tobey) debuted Peter Parker, the soulful linchpin of a huge franchise. If the first installment was a classic creation myth, and the second, the "Ordinary People" of superhero movies, the third examines the burden and intoxicating allure of power. Yup, deciphering Maguire's words, there appears to be an existential battle brewing for Spidey's soul. "There's a lot going on in the movie, but part of it is kind of battling my dark side. Peter Parker's own kind of character flaws manifesting into …. " Maguire begins stumbling about, trying not to give too much away.

"Basically, there's the goo, right? The symbiont which has, like, a dark energy, like the goo from the thing that creates venom." To someone not totally versant in the Spider-Man mythology, Maguire sounds vaguely demented. He realizes it, laughs and backs up. He's not referring to venom, but Venom, "a very, very popular character from the later Spider-Man comics. He has the same kind of attributes that Spider-Man has, but he's just stronger, faster and more vicious than Spider-Man. And it comes from this goo that comes from outer space, so first the goo comes and gets hold of me."

According to Maguire, the "Spider-Man 3" story arc was laid out by Sam Raimi and his brother Ivan, and written by 76-year-old Academy Award winning screenwriter Alvin Sargent. At some point, Maguire was consulted. He's known for being opinionated about his characters, and does sound proprietary about his more famous alter ego.

"It's important to me to have continuity of character," he says. "To not see the same movie regurgitated over again, because I would go crazy."

Even within a genre, Maguire wants to make sure to expand his character as far as he can go. He pressed the filmmakers to reinvent the wheel one more time. "I can't play that same scene," he says. "It's just uninteresting. I don't want to see it; I don't want to be in it."

Yup. Its probably going to come from an asteroid like the Q&A said.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Yup. Its probably going to come from an asteroid like the Q&A said.

According to "EMPIRE" magazine as well as other magazines . The Symboite is brought back to Earth by John Jameson [Just like in The 90's STAS ] and finds it way to Peter Parker / SPIDER-MAN .

yeah, thats most likley it because daniel gillies is returning as john jamieson, why not have him bring it back to earth, also because it follows the comics and STAS more, it makes more sense.

 

[Arcturus]

I am pleased that the symbiote is extraterrestrial.

Very pleased.

 

[The Caped Knight]

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I am pleased that the symbiote is extraterrestrial.

Very pleased.

agreed, they symbiote being an alien is very cool to know, sam followed the story of the symbiote, that im happy about.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

very cool, i loved the venom saga .

Only Empire Magazine...actually only an Empire Magazine reporter who likes to speculate.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Only Empire Magazine...actually only an Empire Magazine reporter who likes to speculate.

but doesnt it make more sense of the symbiote being brought back to earth by john jamieson than a meateore crashing to earth.

 

[lordofthenerds]

How exactly does that make more sense? All it does is create another subplot. All I know is that from what we've seen, the Q&A and script summary have been 100% correct. No reason to doubt them now.

 

[Arcturus]

I'd actually prefer it to arrive on earth via meteorite. Leaves more to the mystery, IMO.
