For those of you know, which I'm sure is probably most of you, the news anchor in the latest trailer is Hal Fishman, who really is a news anchor. And for everyone who watched the 90's Spidey animated series on FOX remember the news reported on TV was done by John Beard, who is also a real news anchor on FOX news (I'm just pointing all this out because as far as I know they only do the news here in LA, I'm not sure if they're known across the country). Well anyways, I'm just pointing out the fact that it would have been cool if John Beard was casted as the news anchor in SM3 since it would be referencing the animated series. Anyone else agree?

i agree with you, in spidey1 the guy who did the voice for spiderman in the 1960s show was on the balcany when the green goblin threw the bomb and the balcany blew up, he was the one who fell, i think it would be a great idea.
 
No

Because Fox news is usually full of lying, bigoted, and ignorant conservatives
 
I have no idea who you're talking about but it would of been a cool fun fact to reference if they did use him.

He's not that Fox News, John Beard is from Fox Eleven News, local affiliate in LA. I dont think he has anything more to do with the 24 hour channel than the Simpsons does.
When I was a kid always thought it was funny that his name is beard, yet he only had moustache. :woot:
 
so what it means when he said

" this could be the end of Spider-Man"

i hope it's not true
 
I think that would be pretty cool. I'd like John Beard in the movie.
 
John Beard was the news anchor on Arrested Development. And there was one episode where he was eating in a restaurant when something went down, and he gets up and walks out cuz he "cant be part of the story". John Beard's awesome.

It's cool though cuz I live in Southern California so John Beard's the anchor i've always watched. What channel/area is this Hal Fishman from?
 
Does whatever a Fish Man can...






















No, I don't know.
 
I agree, i still remember him in the animated series. Growing up in SoCal, I grew up watching John Beard as an achor. I still remeber his old school NBC 4 days.

Oh! That's right! I recognize him now. I thought he looked familiar. Kinda strange that they dont get an ancor from NY, isn't it? They proabably just dont wanna have to spend the money to fly one to hollywood.

"thisss may be the end of ssspider-man"

ugh you're probably confusing that w/ the FOX NEWS channel.

Fox/CNN are pretty decent representations, FOX being moderatly conservative and CNN being moderatly liberal.
 
maybe sony aproached mr beard and he declined
