CG bums me out. It's so overused these days...

WraithTwo was talking about GG as in Green Goblin.

WraithTwo, and yeah I agree. They totally set this 3rd movie up for Harry to become GG and fight Peter, but now all this crazy talk about venom and junk. Also they went through the trouble of establishing Dr. Conors (mentioned him in the first and showed him in the 2nd) you'd think that they'd use that and have him fight the Lizard as a secondary villian.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'd like to see a source for that info cause I've got it somewhat differently.

Check out the link to the vid with Sam Raimi where he states that he thinks that there will be 6 films and that if he feels as passionate about the characters and the story that "there's no way they'd be able to keep me away from it."

As much money as they're making with these movies they'd be fools not to keep them going at least until the well dries up and people don't pay for it anymore. Sure movie making is about art and storytelling, but bottom line, it's a business.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

love those first page quotes.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

That's cheap ass photoshoppin'. Some dork pulled that off in like 10mins.

I love how this discussion stays so strictly on topic. now what exactly does this have to do with Spider-man?

that teaser is clever, but obviously fake. nice april fools joke.

I was speaking idiomatically.

while i think that an appearance of carnage in spidey 3 would be the dumbest fucking idea in the world...

when you said:

dude, do you actually live in the US? People can market anything!!! Especially a redneck serial killer! It was called Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and it was so marketable that they did a remake that made them a fortune.

How funny would it be if the venom talk is all a plot by sony pics to generate a ton of hype. I can see them all around a table... "sweet, church just said the "v" word in an interview! all the fanboys are gonna go nuts!" Everybody will be disappointed when Grace (who plays a nobody bystander) gets killed by Sandman (or Harry as the GG) in the first 15mins of the movie. All the venom fanboys will cry.

How ya doing, buddy?

Lehah, when sony pics states "...Spider-Man wears a black suit in Spider-Man 3." it might just mean that he will wear a black suit.

FELIPE NO

apples and oranges buddy. they say, "spidey will wear a black suit" and "here's a picture of spidey in a black suit... no this is not a black and white picture." what part of that don't you understand? why must you read into shit? "no no, can't you all see! it's a black and white pic" or "it's cloudy out; you'd look black in that lighting too!" Do you just hate the idea of black suit spidey in the next movie?

call me crazy, but i'm slightly inclined to believe that he may have a black suit in the movie.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I'm waiting for Lehah to come in here and say... "look at that crummy photographic fakery! That pic is obviously photoshopped!"

Check the look on Tobey's face; looks like that damn evil symbiote has got to him. Hopefully he won't freak out and smash that camera.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Oh shit, check imdb. Guess who's listed to play Carnage?! I'm sure it's just an awesome joke, but I'll bet it'll get a bunch of people all upset.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

That was the SHIT! Goddamn that was awesome. And yeah, Lehah, the suit looks pretty black to me. I'd love to quote myself here for being correct when I said:

And this has to do with Spider-man how?

What's all this talk of a "crappy" photoshop job. I'd challenge anybody here to do better. Make a pic of yoruself with the Venom suit oozing over yourself and try to do a better job. Also, that entire pic has a cool green color over it. The green could just be a result of the lighting. In the first teaser trailer the suit looks pretty black and slimy as it jumps onto Pete's hand. Or they could be taking some artistic liscense and giving Venom a dark green tint. As I recall, the suit is kinda "what you make of it," a jagged reflection of your inner self.

None of those guys use PS to create photorealistic images. They're all traditional painters. So you're saying you want Alex Ross to do the movie posters in traditional media? From what I remember, all of the Spidey posters have had a photorealistic style to them. They're just keeping the same style.

Interrobang, yeah yeah, whatever. Everybody's allowed to be a critic whether they have any skills at all or know what the hell they're talking about. I'm just trying to get the point across that making something like that in PS is not just 20mins of work that can be pulled off by a no talent hack. It's not like the guy took a stock photo of Topher Grace and hit it with the "symbiote brush."

I was speaking idiomatically.

my bad then, I should've specified PS.

What do you mean "all i'm looking for are cheap CG gimick and lens flair?" Where did I give that impression at all? I'm just saying stick with the established style. There's no denying that Frazetta is a badass at what he does, but his style doesn't match what's already been established.

And as far as not being able to find anything more photorealistic than Frazetta's work.


all digital.

and of course, http://www.dylancolestudio.com/index2.html, his matte paintings are way more photorealistic than anything Frazetta ever did.

By the way, it's lens flare, not flair... since I know you're a stickler about stuff like that.

Double Post:
One more example of photorealism better than Frazetta.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

That painting is badass.

LeHah, maybe we should just make a thread devoted to the most badass movie posters.

Too bad John Singer Sargent isn't around to blow everybody's mind making the most badass movie poster character portraits ever.

Back to Spidey though... have they wrapped shooting and moved to post production?

FELIPE NO

Wasn't there supposed to be a new trailer out soon? I thought they played one the other night during RW/RR The Duel, but I didn't watch it.

How ya doing, buddy?

I was just thinking about how ridiculous this is, but it's true. That's how much we're obsessed with Spider-Man.

That looked so badass (the trailer). That black suit sure does make him a badass.

EDIT: Thanks WolfDemon, I'm a retard for not reading!
