What do you think of the Green Goblin II costume?

[The Infernal]

Well I'm gutted. I'm actually annoyed that I could find something really wrong with the movie prior to its release. He does look like he just threw some old clothes on. He could have at least had a hoodie.

I actually think the Glider is alright. I still prefer SM1's Gobling Glider though. It just seemed a bit more imaginative than this one. Still, not bad and the best thing about GG2.

My only hope is that he improves his look throughout the film. I mean he's ambushed Peter in his civies, it could be that he's rushed all this in need of revenge.

Still, this won't stop me from enjoying the movie. It's just one thing.

the original was far from perfect.... as a matter of fact the alternate designs they didn't use were better fitted than the one they used in the film.

you can see them and see how they screwed up royally by passing on much better goblin outfits on the SM DVD.

 

[Scandalous]

The first one wasn't "prefect." Not even close.

But who's to say he's even calling himself "The Green Goblin" at this point in the film? Could easily be Harry simply using his father's technology without the full-on insanity....yet. I'd be okay with that.

 

[Milkman95]

It's awful and there's no excuse with the money and creativity Raimi and his team have. It better be a prototype because this might be one of the worst renditions of a comic book costume to the movie screen. Awful.

 

[Jubba]

maybe he's just playing around and it gets stolen by a badguy

 

[Boom]

Then Raimi bastardized the character.

True, but then it's also a matter of personal taste and what will work with regards to the rest of the film's look and the budget. Plus there are tons of fans all with their own ideas that you'll always find a large number complaining no matter what design is picked.

 

[Kevin Roegele]

....They were right.......all this time, the people who said Harry's costume would just be a mask and gloves and snowboard......good grief this is lame....James Franco, I'm embarassed for you. The only downside to an incredible teaser.

 

[Boom]

But if the costume is at least somewhat decent looking most fans will come to terms with it.

This is an abomination. It doesn't resemble any incarnation of the Green Goblin EVER. It doesn't resemble a goblin PERIOD. If Harry's not going to carry on Norman's legacy, then don't bother putting him in costume. I'd prefer that over this ****.

YES IT WAS!!!!.....

well you're right, it is a matter of personal taste but at the same time.... had the mask been a bit more faithful to the comic... there'd be less complaints and less comparisons to the Power Rangers.

One of the sketches for the alternate masks really looked like a goblin and I dont' know why it was passed up.... I doubt it would have been more expensive than the one they used in the film.

It looks like Harry is a professional ski-boarder.

To me, the costume is okay, but they need to work on it more.

 

[The Green Goblin]

Thanks Raimi.

 

[The Infernal]

True, here there is no excuse. I was talking in regards to SM1's GG. Here, even if it is his early/prototype suit, then they could have come up with something a little more spectacular.

To me it's just plain lazy. They had the money, talent, and time to create something better than what we got. It's a terrible rendition if in fact this is the final costume for GG2. Might as well call him Freaky Snowboarder or something else because it's clearly not the Goblin.............

 

[Boom]

It's not going to change. The Q&A never made any mention of Harry modifying the suit as the movie progresses. They've already spent money on designing and making the suit, and they're already months into filming.

It's not changing.

 

[CrypticOne]

Maybe the suit Harry is wearing is not the new GG costume? What is its like his training suit. He's in the Danger Room testing his new board.

 

[boywonder13]

And people got angry when they saw the Superman suit for Superman Returns....

this is a true crime against God!

 

[The Infernal]

Ah, now I'm one of the people who think that the comic's original Goblin costume was silly. I mean it's a good concept in general but he does tend to look like one of Santa's Elves with the Hulk treatment.

The rubber Goblin mask I think would have looked terrible. On the other hand I've seen the concept to which I think you are referring and it does look more spectacular than what we had but not too rubber masked.

*SLAP!*

This is far worse. The Superman suit was at least recognizable as Superman. If I had absolutely no knowledge of this movie prior to the trailer, I'd think Spider-Man was fighting an Extreme Paintballing Snowboarder.

 

[Orko Is King]

Glider=cool
Costume=crap


It doesn't even remotely resemble the comic book costume. At least the costume from Spider-Man two got the basics right (green and goblinish). They should've just used this costume.

With this color scheme.

 

[CLmoose8]

I for one am just stoked that there's finally a movie Goblin wearing PURPLE.

 

[Village_Idiot]

Amazing , how could Raimi screw up the Green Goblin two times in a row , like someone said before , I hope it's just a prototype like Peter's wrestling costume in the first movie , but probably not , beacuse that is in no way the Green Goblin

 

[The Kid]

He has a hoverboard!
