Iambaytor Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Okay, from viewing the "leaked" designs. Who else thinks Green Goblin 2 looks like he's gonna go play paintball?
Silent Bob Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Ok...I dunno, honestly, it just didn't do it for me. More conflicted Spidey fighting. Yay. I kinda hoped they got all that out of the way in the first two, and this one could be straight-out fun, but it's not looking like it. I'm sure it'll be great like the other two, I'm just not impressed yet. Some spoiler-ridden complaints ahead. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Green Goblin II - Why Harry, why? Why couldn't you have found that secret room and said "oh! My father was a psychotic man who dressed in a Halloween costume and threw bombs at children. Maybe that's why Peter Parker had to beat the snot out of him!" Putting on the costume and going after vengeance just seems so...typical. And now Sandman kills Uncle Ben! C'mon! First of all, that negates any power those scenes between Pete and Uncle Ben's killer had in the first movie, and secondly it's just stupid and unnecessary. It's like when they made Joker the killer of Batman's parents. It's not a fanboy, "that's not how it happened" quibble (but...that didn't happen in the comics, right?) it just reeks of convenient plot point and doesn't need to be there. And finally, it just continues a trend that I've started to find annoying in this movie series. Every single villain has to be only one or two steps removed from Peter. In the first one it was his best friend's father. In the second it was his scientific mentor. Now we've got one where he's fighting his best friend, his co-worker and the guy who killed his Uncle? I was looking forward to Sandman because I thought there'd finally be a bad guy that Spidey could kick the crap out of just for being a bad guy, without all the extra baggage attached but no. Apparently for Spider-man, the most effective way to prevent a new supervillain attack is to stay in his apartment and stop meeting people. I understand that superhero movies are not a place to look for plausibility, but it would be nice if they opened the world up a little. Ok I'm done complaining.
Silent Bob Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Also, I want to make a drinking for everytime in this trilogy that Peter says he "has to stop" something.
Lycaon Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Okay, from viewing the "leaked" designs. Who else thinks Green Goblin 2 looks like he's gonna go play paintball? His costume fucking sucks. Also, yes it does remind me of paintball, now that you mention it. Ok...I dunno, honestly, it just didn't do it for me. More conflicted Spidey fighting. Yay. I kinda hoped they got all that out of the way in the first two, and this one could be straight-out fun, but it's not looking like it. I'm sure it'll be great like the other two, I'm just not impressed yet. But... angst is what Spider-Man is all about... I swear its the real source of his power, and the spider-bite was just an excuse.

MusicManiac Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 So I take it everyone watched the trailer after CSI last night at 10:00?
Lycaon Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 Just before 10. Didn't even know it would be on (got lucky).
Reverend Jax Posted November 10, 2006 Posted November 10, 2006 It one comedy central too. Okay, from viewing the "leaked" designs. Who else thinks Green Goblin 2 looks like he's gonna go play paintball? At least he don't look like a Power Rangers villian anymore. Are you trying to tell me the new design si worse than this:
Lycaon Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 At least he don't look like a Power Rangers villian anymore. Are you trying to tell me the new design si worse than this: Yes. Yes I am.
Silent Bob Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 Gotta agree with Jax on that one. The trailer's up here.
Ganny McVagflaps Posted November 11, 2006 Posted November 11, 2006 I always agree with Jax. Otherwise when he gets drunk he slaps me around...I mean I walk into doors...
The NZA Posted November 11, 2006 Author Posted November 11, 2006 SB's got a point about the six degrees; that's a trend in the book (especially ulitmate) as well, but theyre playing it up here....its a small world after all. That Uncle Ben bit...thats just weird. I like the designs, but im with baytor on the goblin look...jesus, its a bit better than the he-man castaway that was Norman, but cant we just wear a mask and a purple purse and call him a hobgoblin or something? anyway, im sure itll somehow be cool when Rami's done.
The NZA Posted November 12, 2006 Author Posted November 12, 2006 New Spider-Man 3 trialer!! and no, that's not a link to chicks with dicks, its actually spidey, and it looks magnificent... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « venom's abscenese/sandman now has the smoking gun and all aside. im nitpicking what's gonna be a great film, here.
The NZA Posted November 13, 2006 Author Posted November 13, 2006 no one cares about ? No one?? but...but everybody gets one
Reverend Jax Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 Dude,t he traielr was already posted. Everyone already made comments on it.
The NZA Posted November 13, 2006 Author Posted November 13, 2006 they did? like the last page or wha? shit, i hate comin in late.
Iambaytor Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 I don't know oddly enough I do prefer the dumb Power Ranger's Green Goblin, over the "Dude let's go play paintball and skateboard" Spider-Man. They couldn't have gone with the Hobgoblin? Or god forbid a goblin design that looked MORE like the comic one and not less?
The NZA Posted November 13, 2006 Author Posted November 13, 2006 question is: you think they could pull off either a rubber mask or makeup for the face? i mean, hobgoblin could be cool with the hood, but id wanna switch out the purple purse, myself.

Hey, don't think that just 'cause you're not comfortable with your sexuality, the Hobgoblin isn't.

With what they're doing with prosthetics? Yes, hell I'd settle for a green goblin like in Ultimate Spider-Man even. And let's be honest, they can make the Superman costume look cool, they can make this work. I'm not saying they have to do everything, they don't need the purple hooded tunic or the gloves, or the gay pointy elf boots, just give him a mask that actually doesn't suck. I mean at least with Norman the stupid mask was forgiveable as there was a creepy Willem Defoe on the other end, but with Harry we have the amazing paintball man and James Franco, it's bad all around.
Ganny McVagflaps Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 The suit don't make the man. The Toxic Avenger wore a pink tu-tu and he's the greatest superhero ever to come out of New Jersey.
Iambaytor Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 Yeah, just sayin' the man underneath is a shitty actor, he has to have something going for him!
Ganny McVagflaps Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 Ah don't hate on Franco. We have stupid fucking Dunst for that.
