Spider-Man (2012) - Page 2

Its time to fallow the Paramount comic book movies and forget about Spiderman. Its just ironic that Spiderman gets a reboot when The Hobbit returns. Seems like Spiderman and Middle Earth have a destiny in many ways.
Yeah what will happen is Raimi will direct W.O.W and it will kick Spiderman's reboots rear.

wheres the superman reboot?

Tornado · 01-12-2010, 12:01 AM

I agree, although the longer they push it off the more likely it'll start up after Smallville finishes and Tom Welling can don the tights. So I'm not complaining.

DarthVader 2004 · 01-12-2010, 12:02 AM

Not Happening for the court stuff and the apprently can't make a good movie without Nolan.

FVD · 01-12-2010, 12:09 AM

I think this is good news. I wasn't all that thrilled with Raimi, Maguire and Dunst coming back anyway. At least Marvel Studios has some involvement in this. I just hope they get Creative Control. Fox oughta do the same (but we all know will never happen).

It can happen. Just because the rights are burning up doesn't mean another company can't swing in and sign a contract.

Also, there have been several good superhero movies without Nolan at the helm.

will superherohype.com start up another massive countdown and re-name the site back to spidermanhype? that would be awesome.

Wait and see what happens, the track records of reboots from the past few years is under .500 but a clean slate can do anything. To go from Batman & Robin to Batman Begins to The Dark Knight? Excellent. The Bond films after GoldenEye to Casino Royale, excellent. Star Trek Nemesis to Stark Trek, well a lot of people loved it. Spider-Man 3 to ... The Amazing Spider-Man? Could live up to the name or join Superman Returns/Planet of the Apes or sink to Street Fighter/Punisher:War Zone.

They can actually set up sequels here by introducing Norman, Doc Ock and Eddie Brock but not have them villains. Venom can be done right instead of 15 minutes at the end of Spidey 3.

Bad idea. One sure fire way to screw up a reboot is to keep anyone on board from the last film.

After Bond, Batman and Star Trek I guess it was time. Sony was going to reboot after the 4th film anyway but 2012 is the tenth anniversary of Spider-Man.

Judi Dench didn't screw up the last two Bond films.

If they have Morbuis as the baddie than yes they're going after the vampire crowd.

Summer 2000-May 3, 2002 was such a great time.

No i mean for WB and a DC comic per say.

Spirited Away · 01-12-2010, 07:30 AM

I have the following on good authority, and I'm most certain it'll be posted everywhere soon:

- Spider-Man (2012) is the first film in a proposed duology
- the film's premise was originally the story for Spider-Man 4, but Raimi didn't like it
- Sony/Marvel loved it, so instead told Vanderbilt to make it Spider-Man 5 AND Spider-Man 6
- then Spider-Man 4 crumbled
- Sony/Marvel are now using the original Spider-Man 5 and 6 as the basis for a reboot
- Vanderbilt is currently adding all the high school elements to the story
- the plot is similar to the video game, Web of Shadows, and featured the symbiote taking over New York, led by The Lizard, and multiple new Venoms

Enjoy.

Ramplate · 01-12-2010, 08:11 AM

wow just read this - probably a good decision for those involved but I hope they don't blow it

DarthVader 2004 · 01-12-2010, 08:22 AM

I think who Played Conners likely was not big enough an actor.

I agree. That's the problem with Lizard as the villain. They would have to recast.

DarthVader 2004 · 01-12-2010, 09:11 AM

I think Fisk would have been a better main villain in a reboot just like the cartoon series. You can then include alot classic famous people. Felicia Hardy at some point. The Lizard should be a reluctant villain not main villain.

Lucifer Rising · 01-12-2010, 09:18 AM

Wonder if Anti Venom will make an appearence in the later movies. Would be good to see him.

I wish Marvel would get all their rights back and it just be them that make the movies. That way they can make the movies the right way and then the fans would (hopefully) be happy.

MasterChief117 · 01-12-2010, 11:14 AM

Superman Reboot>Spider-Man Reboot

This has got to be some of the worst news I've heard in sometime. I really don't care that they kicked out Raimi/Maguire or whatever but the fact that they are rebooting something that isn't even old. Urgh....Lame.

Not to mention I really can't see anyoneplaying any of the roles. Oh well...

Let me tell you guys something. Sam Raimi was the BEST thing to ever happen to the series, hands down. He made two great films and one bad one which was NOT his fault. Should he have had creative control in Spider-Man 3, it would have topped the 2nd one by far. I am saddened to see his departure from the series. I am also saddened to see that Sony has no god damn brains in the matter. If only we could reboot everything, huh?

MasterChief117 · 01-12-2010, 12:12 PM

Agreed.

docstop · 01-12-2010, 02:48 PM

I always thought that the only way to get the franchise back where it belongs at the top was too somehow redo SM3... didn't think they'd decide to reboot the whole franchise. If Sony thinks that they can make Spider-Man dark and gritty, like Batman, it won't work. Spidey is a much more fun loving and innocent character and trying to pigeon hole him into that type of reality won't work at all. You can do, but then they're not really being true to the comics IMO.

docstop · 01-12-2010, 02:51 PM

If they get Jake Gyllenhal to be Peter that would be horrible casting. Jake is a decent actor but it would be like hiring Tobey Maguire 2.

Tolkien · 01-12-2010, 02:53 PM

They'll go younger. They want to reboot his entire teenage experience. Pathetic.

docstop · 01-12-2010, 03:01 PM

How young can they go? Maybe they'll try out the earlier Batman theory that didn't work where there's a new Peter Parker for every movie. Whatever they think will make them lots of money, I guess. With Arad at the controls know I wouldn't be surprised with any dumb decisions now. You'd think that with all the money that Sam and Tobey have made them, they'd believe in what Sam thinks the next Spider-Man movie should be about.

Tolkien · 01-12-2010, 04:25 PM

I would think that they'd allow Raimi full control over it seeing as how he's gotten them that far and made them more money they they ever expected from the series. Maybe from the inside, they feel that they're doing the right think but... from out here, it's clear that they have their heads so far up their asses that their resulting actions are just completely full of ****.

Exactly! I am so tired of hearing ignorant posts that Raimi is an idiot and that after Spider-Man 3 he has lost his touch. As you already stated, the movie was NOT his fault, but rather the studio's, the same studio that already wants to reboot the series. The studio was going in the wrong direction, not Raimi. I for one am glad that Raimi is gone. Not because he "did a bad job, omg Spider-Man 3 was my life and he ruined it!" but to get away from the stupid expectations of fanboys and return to making movies he actually wants to make. He has made some really good films, and to be honest I'd much rather see his name attached to Evil Dead 4 over Spider-Man 4. Let Sony do their thing and make movies worse than Spider-Man 3, then we'll see if the fanboys eat their words.
