[Movie] Spider-Man 3

So, uh, who isn't is/are the villain(s)?

I'm assuming Green Goblin will make a return (as it was kinda implied by the end of 2) and now I hear Sandman and Venom are in the movie. With the later being more of a rumor.

So, yea, could someone give a clear list as to who the new villain(s) is/are?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Aw man that trailer was sweet! Ahh, just I don't know how to describe my excitment for the movie! Just seeing the symbiote crawling over Spidey, heh, nice to see the speculations to be true. I wonder if they'll end off the movie with the symbiote going to Brock, leaving the 4th movie (assuming that 3 isn't the last) for Venom. Just a little less than a year!

This teaser is being shown during the previews for Superman Returns right? Man, I gotta go check out Superman a lot sooner than I had planned.

Hahaha, I noticed that too. I'm guessing it'll be Green Goblin Harry that'll do her in, this is assuming that they follow the comics path of killing her.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Off-topic to the 3rd movie but still related to Spider-man.

LOL, this is hilarious! Japanese Spider-man, from 1978! Man, the show is so ridiculus! Haha, and the music is pretty good, but so retro too. SUPAIDAA SUTINGU (Spider String)!

Apparently these are character designs for the game. Venom's design definitely looks like it'd be from the movie (the webbing feature on the outfit, gives it away), while the Harry GG seems out of place. I mean the snowboarder look makes he appear like more of a common punk/thug, than the menacing Goblin.

Oh yea, I read that there's going to be a new trailer shown during the previews for Casino Royale.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Aw man, looks great! But I really don't like Harry's outfit, I guess it's really more the glider design than anything (heh, though it's kinda neat if it think of it as a hoverboard). Also, I love how they showed more of scenes of Peter's evil side as he's gradually getting consumed by the suit.

I, as well, believe that Venom will only appear at the end of the movie. Opening up the fourth film to be a full out Venom fest, which seems to be the most logical approach.

I agree the CGI doesn't look very good at all (well, for the new shown scenes anyway). Then again, there's still half a year to go before the film's release. So I'm guessing they're still polishing up the CGI in post.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

From what I posted a month ago, the Venom is (and the other two) apparently for the new game.

BTW, there's a 33 page Spider-Man 3 article in the 2007 Movie Spectacular issue of Wizard. Some interviews here and there, pretty good read.

FELIPE NO

Medicom is making some RAH Spider-Man 3 figures. Sideshow Toys (distributor for em) has Spidey, Black Suit Spidey, and Venom up for pre-order. Assuming that the Venom pictured is the final design for him, I'm dissapointed they didn't keep the white arachnid on the him. Venom's whole mouth/jaw seems a little awkward too.

For those who love the trailer music to the last Spider-Man 3 trailer, a link to full 3:07 version below (not the 30 sec preview that you can find here)! It's called "Trinity", composed specifically for the SM3 trailer(s) by James Dooley. Enjoy!

A look at the SM3 figures from Hasbro at Toy Fair 2007. These look kinda crappy and they're supposed to be 5" tall, smaller than the previous SM movie lines which were about 7". And of course, they all seem to be plagued with action features.

For some reason they've included Green Goblin and Doc Ock in the line, probably to make up for the smaller scale though. Interestingly, Scorpion, Rhino and the Lizard are included in the line up as well. The Scorpion and Rhino designs look like crap, but the Lizard... one might question whether he'll appear in the movie as the figure's detail and design hint at it (clearly looking more like something we'd see in the SM movies).

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Just watched it, showed the first Peter vs. GG Harry (well in the suit anyway) fight, which was pretty good. Though, I was hoping they would have showed some Sandman vs Spidey sequences. Nice little flash of Venom at the end (official this time) of the preview though, plus a quick flash of a huge Sandman.

Though, gotta say that the CGI didn't look that great it could definitely use a little polishing. Hopefully that wasn't the finished product.

EDIT: Some gifs

Spoiler:

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

Holy crap! That was awesome! Ha, and here I thought this was the same trailer shown in the theatre with 300. Man, Harry's face is fucked up now, aftermath of the point blank explosion of the pumpkin bomb no doubt. Love how the camera continuously followed Spidey in the subway, those spidey-cam shots are the best. So glad they showed more footage of Venom too.

Spoiler:

But it didn't really seem like they improved on the CGI much at all, some of the shots look great, while others are kinda meh.

And how about that sunrise shot near the end of the trailer? Didn't they kinda reveal a little too much from that?

Spoiler:

Clearly shot from near the end of the movie. Looks like Brock's dying/dead or something.

Oh and you can download a copy of either 480 or 720 p version of the trailer over at Internaspe, among other things.

Ain't It Cool News received a scoop from an untried source about major plot points from the fim last year including the finale and 2 major characters dying, 1 of which during the finale. They were forced to take the story down by Sony but not because it was true but rather because of false and misleading the info was.

Only it wasn't. The info claimed the final battle of the movie would take place on a construction with Spider-Man & Harry Vs Venom & Sandman. So far the trailer has pretty much confirmed all the info is true and yeah even I was little surprised they included that sunset shot in trailer...

Spoiler:

Oh wow, I kinda guessed at a Spidey & Harry team up; the recent release of the figures only reinforced that guess (Harry vs Sandman set? come on, like that wasn't obvious enough). As for that shot, I had a feeling that might have been Harry as well (ha, actually, it makes much more sense now, as both Pete and MJ are connected to him), but Brock came up first cause I thought the final battle was just Spidey vs. Venom. But after you mentioned the Sandman & Venom teaming up thing, kinda makes sense with what I've seen in the trailers + merchanding (huge ass Sandman attached to some girders).

Yea, not much left to be shocked about, thanks to the merchandising and recent trailers. Oh well, the movie should be one hell of a ride.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Select short clips from the movie available for viewing at IGN.com, such as the subway scene with Spidey vs Sandman, and the construction crane scene with Spidey and Gwen.

Also here's a pretty good image of Venom:

EDIT:
Oh, there's also a new TV spot featuring Venom, revealing much more footage of him, perhaps too much even....

I loved the movie! Though there were some funky plot holes (like one Drex mentioned already, that was the biggest WTF moment for me), the action definitely delivered for me. Though I really was expecting a lot more black suit Spidey action than just black suit Parker. LOL, but I thought it was ridiculously hilarious when the showed the effects of symbiote on Parker's life.
Loved the movie's final battle even though it seemed a little corny at times.

Oh and Bruce Campbell's cameo for this one was great! LOL, and Jonah's bit this time was hilarious, kept LMAO. I thought Stan Lee's cameo in this was much better than the previous, where he was only in for a few seconds to pull somebody away.

The CG looked pretty good too, though Venom looked kinda cartoony at times. Oh and I really liked the score for this one, personally I thought it was a lot better than the previous films (namely the symbiote/black-suit theme).

Anyway, overall I agreed with many of the critics that mentioned that there were just too many villains/story for one movie. As some characters definitely didn't get the development they deserved *cough* Venom *cough*. Just not enough black suit Spidey or Venom.

BTW, did anyone else feel like the addition of the Stacy's seemed like a complete waste and was only done to please fanboys (or maybe anger them)?

Raimi orginally didn't want to use him, but Avi Arad forced it on him because that's who the fans wanted. Venom fans might feel gipped.

Spoiler:

That's actually what I predicting would happen too when I saw the first trailer. As I was just expecting them to do a whole arc with the symbiote/black-suit Spidey and the consequences of actions with it on Sandman. Then ending the movie with Brock getting it and plotting some vengence, allowing Venom to have his own movie.

Spoiler:

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Venom, rven though we saw him get blown to hell, there still a possibility. Remember Conner's still has that sample of the symbiote, maybe it'll sense out the remains.
