The Amazing Spider-Man Vampires in Spider-Man 4

Although I wouldn't mind seeing Vampires in a Spider-Man Movie, I'm kinda skeptic because of Raimi. He made SM3 (which was suppossed to be dark) a kids movie filled with crying and silly jokes. I hope it won't be the case with SM4 and I also hope that everyone learnt from their mistakes.

Other than that, what can I say, as long as it's handled properly it would be very cool, but I think these are just rumours about Morbius being in SM4 and about Raimi talking about vampire so much lately, I'm not buying it. It doesn't mean they will make this into a SM Movie.

It's not just that Raimi was talking about vampires. He's said before that he's a BIG fan of Morbius and Morbius has strong links to The Lizard.

indeed he does. besides I think it would be vampirE not vampirES (plural) morbius would just drain victims plasma without turning them.
I highly recommend the run where spidey gets six arms and battles the lizard and morbius or watch the "Neogenic Nightmare" from spider-man TAS. I'd love to see that on the big screen.

I just dont want SP4 to fall into the current vampire fad.

I don't think you'd get blood sucking past PG-13

not exactly a fad, moribius in TAS was ten years ago and morbius in ASM was 20 years ago.

Sure you can, you just have to be smart about it. I mean, obvioiusly i'm not talking about hardcore throat tearing Blade-style stuff. Maybe if when he bites his victims there's no blood per se but it's pretty clear what he's doing.
Morbius needs to drink blood in this because otherwise one of the major villains of this (let's not forget) make or break installment of the franchise will be a "Badass vampire" too scared to drink blood, fer chrissakes!

All jokes aside, if thats what happens then we really will have a Twilight style situation on our hands.
I dont mind vampires in the next SP flick (Its Raimi! He can do this sorta thing in his sleep!) but they have to be a threat!

No Wussiness please!
 
Im talking about all these other vampires in movies/shows
Twilight, True Blood, Underworld 3, Let the Right One in, I am LEgend, 30 Days of Night.

I mean that I dont want to see another vampire movie especially in a SPM movie where there are alot better character imo

Yeah. Buffy and Angel got away with it without getting a MA rating. If done in similar fashion, I don't see Spidey 4 getting the big R, y'know.
 
if sam does indeed bring morbius to the big screen then bring something new to the table. morbius is not a 'true' vampire but a victim of an experiment gone wrong. show some stuff that has never been seen in a vampire movie before. I think the reson sam may be drawn to morbius is sam loves his sympathetic villians, well he has them in lizard and moribus.

you can get away with murder (no pun intended lol) if you show no blood. look at TDK (just an example).

Sure, you're right and i'd be shocked if they didnt go down that same sympathetic angle with Morbius but you're forgetting that yes, although Raimi loves to redeem his villains, BEFORE the redemtion he clearly relishes making them very, very BAD indeed.
Morbius needs to be bad. Before he's redeemed, He needs to be what we thought we were getting with Venom last time around.
And yeah, He's a science vampire... But so what? The same rules apply.
On screen that's going to mean very little in regards to changing the fact that essentially we're watching Spidey VS. The living undead.

Especially to the general public...

I'm really not interested in seeing Morbius. There's more vampire movies than you can shake a stick at these days.

I don't need it in Spider-Man, too.

is morbius does go really bad I'm hoping spidey is blamed and the police/swat/fbi come after him (spidey) that would make for fantastic action scenes, also the city falling in love with spidey didn't sit right with me in SM3. has spidey ever been loved by the public?
 
That'd be great. My only worry is that it might be a little bit samey to what it looks like Nolan has in store for Batman 3 and arent they coming out the same year?
I hated Spidey being being publicly adored too. Like everything else in that awful, awful film it was just... Wrong.
 
Morbius is far from my first choice as a villain for a Spider-Man movie, but hey ... If the movie's good, then the movie's good. Right?

Also, if having the Lizard means having Morbius, then I'm definitely going to be more open-minded about it.
 
I'm taking the randomness of it to be a good sign. For this rumour to come out of nowhere like this, That feels to me like Raimi has a plan, something very specific he wants to do...

not if spidey gets there first ha ha :woot:
 
it would be interesting to see how spider-man's mythos in the movies deals with a cryptzoology creature created by science.

this would be really great in having a plot where spider-man begins to see himself as a monster (partially due to the events of SM3 when he began abusing his powers)

I always thought the 6-arm saga was a great story and would be interesting to see in the movie.
 
Well, if Sam handled Morbius as a supervilain who happens to be a vampire, then I could be okay with it. But if it's "Spidey in the realm of vampires" with stuff like Morbius trying to claim MJ as his bride or something, then they should leave that in the same spot as "Young Ock in love".
 
Honestly, I'd fee lsafe with Sam using Morbius because I think Sam, who has had a great horror background, will make Morbius look scary/threatening, as well as somewhat sympathetic. Morbius doesn't want to kill people, but has to.

LOL. If Morbius is the villain in this movie, we are getting Twilight.
 
Forget the vampire we got enough vampires here and there, bring the Lizard dammit
 
Man i hope he's joking i have no desire to see a vampire themed spider-man movie if u thought audiences had a hard time with an alien like venom in spider-man i cant see a vampire movie being any more accepted. Bring on the lizard!
