Home / asides / spiderman 3 villains

Why is it that Spiderman 3 has three villains? Didn’t the crappy Batmans do this and fail? I would just hope the plot would hold up to just one villain especially since we are going to see my favorite comic character of all time, Venom.

    so it's gonna be venom, hobgoblin, and bizarro spidey (forget what he's actually called)?

    No, venom, hobgoblin and sandman.
  • Sandman sucks... I wouldnt mind Venom and Carnage
  • I remember thinking that was a bad sign when I saw that preview. Both the venom and hobgoblin stories are definitely big enough to be adapted into their own movies without sharing a lot of time.

    Like we talked about this morning, I'm hoping the way this goes is as follows:

    1. The opening scene is a big, action-packed fight scene - Spidey vs. Sandman. At the end of this sequence, Sandman gets captured and goes to jail, and that's it for him for the rest of the movie. I'd like to see this both because I don't want them trying to crowd in an extra villain throughout the whole movie, and because it would allow for a faster paced, action based opening scene before you get into the actual plot of the movie.

    2. The rest of the movie unfolds along the general lines of the Venom story. Of course, they won't be able to tell it the original way it happened (I'll explain why they can't do this, if anyone is interested), but it will be interesting to see what they do instead. Hopefully they at least stick to the basics: Spidey gets a costume with all these strange new abilities, and then gradually learns what it really is, etc. etc. Hopefully this will be the main storyline of the movie.

    3. I wouldn't mind seeing the Hobgoblin subplot continue to be just the same as it has been in the first two movies: a slowly progressing subplot that ties the movies together but does not interfere with the main story being presented in each film. Ideally, it would keep that slow, background pace, and only maybe reveal him in costume at the very end of this movie.
  • After thinking about it again later in the day, I realized one other possibly acceptable role that the Sandman character could play (other than the one I outlined above). When Peter first gets the new costume, he has to wear it for a while before he discovers its true nature, so I guess they could show him kicking Sandman's butt after he gets the new costume, as long as they still keep it to a short action scene, like I described above. While I'd prefer my original idea, I'd be OK with this too, but either way I really want it to be a very short scene so as not to take time away from the main storyline.

    it's not the hobgoblin, it's going to be the Green Goblin...Harry never became the Hobgoblin, he just took on the role of Green Goblin....either way I think it would be better if they dropped at least one of them
  • I think that venom, hobgoblin, and sandman would be the best to see but venom is better

    What will happen is, Spiderman will wear the black suit (symbioite) for a while, while he fights sand man, and he will fight the GREEN goblin (harry) as black spidey but then realize its true nature and get rid of it in the bell tower, which then it will combine with Eddie Brock, he will become venom, and spiderman and harry osbourne (greent goblin) will decided to join forces only to defeat venom, then they will go back to being enemies.

    Venom is going to be awesome, no doubt about it. Sandman is a loser. I haven't even heard of him till a few months back. How ever many villains there will be Sandman should be booted.

    I think Siderman 3 is going to be the best.Venom looks so cool in spiderman 3.The Hobgoblin's costume is so amazing and so is his glider.
