I’d love to see Raimi stay on, and direct every major Spider-Man flick. He’s a fantastic director, and probably the most appropriate for the job. Don’t rush to get the movies out… let the man take his time and do them each right. Venom could have been done better, obviously… but I also think that Raimi has a chance at some serious redemption there if he’s allowed to bring back Carnage (his way… with minimal “studio” involvement.) Sam Rami’s got the ability to make the rest of the Spidey flicks both family-friendly and dark-gritty. He’s great at balancing things like that.

And???? – complain about the 4th film before its release? sure. Afterall, it pays to think ahead.

yeah great ideas – have polls about a 5th movie before the 4th movie is even made.

@ The Pitt Man
Question i know what would be another good poll for them to ask would be, How many villains should be in the 5th installment? Or maybe a character related question like, Should the character of Felicia Hardy/Black Cat be introduced in a sequel?

I saw just stop doing spider-man 4 and start over like they did with batman, spider-man could be so much more Bad A! And like the graphic novels and comics spider-man was awesome action, fighting, a lil darker, more like what everyone wants to see they just need to stop butchering the superhero and start over and do it right, they need someone like me to give them advice of what they should put in the movie and then let them figure the rest out.

Let Sam Raimi finish up with Spiderman 4. He has done a great job thus far considering the hassles he went through with Spiderman 3.

I would love to see a new director and cast breathe some fresh ideas into the Spiderman franchise. Some here have mentioned a mature treatment of the script.

I agree that a little more realism in the acting and some hardcore fast paced action sequences would be awesome.

I’m still going to dream on and suggest James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, or Ridley Scott as possible candidates for future films. Other suggestions include: Paul Greengrass, Louis Leterrier or Doug Liman.

True about Morbious. As for a actress for Felcia Hardy/Black Cat, id say Rachel McAdams, Laura Vandervoort, or even Scarlett Johansson would be perfect. With Scarlett being busy w/ Marvel films on the way she might be too busy, so my 2nd choice would be Rachel McAdams.

@chrisj

I would like Black Cat to appear in the new trilogy as well, and the whole Morbias twist with it could be good. But I don’t know if they are really gonna use him as a villian though. Anyway I can’t wait to hear more news soon.

WOOOw, easy guys, we shouldn`t be jumping out to random villains we found interesting in the comics, think about what would be weird and what would be inverse.

I cant wait to find out whos the villain/villains in the 4th film. I myself would hope Raimi and everyone also film 5&6. They might aswell and just complete the saga and then give the studio a break and let things calm down, and then reboot if the fans want more of spidey. Id love to see the Sinister Six, its one way for the franchise to end with a bang. My suggestion would be ethier in the 4th film or the others to introduce Felicia Hardy and later have her become Black Cat and possibly help Spider-Man take down the Sinister Six. It would be easy to involve her knowing her relationship w/ Morbius.

Ya, we should just wait and see how the fourth turns out. It will probably be good though. It be cool if he actually goes and does the last two, completing the saga. Maybe he’d work out the Sinister Six along the way like he said.

That’s what’s often times different about a single author’s book series and a comic book series. For the most part Flemming’s work was his and that does make a difference. No work for hire issue, no big company that lays claim to rights in other mediums etc, etc. Yeah if you ever have a good story idea write it in a book or script form first or make sure you have a good lawyer. It doesn’t mean you always get your way. Flemming didn’t care for Sean Connery playing James Bond, but the less fingers in the pie the better.

I think it also benefited the Bond films to have a relatively small dedicated group producing the product, rather than a big corporate monster calling the production shots. Here again though, that’s no guarantee for a good movie. The Bond series has had its critical stinkers and divisive movies. You have to accept the experienced truism “It’s a miracle any movie gets made.” I didn’t invent the saying but it holds a certain compelling nature…

@ Ricky07
It would be nice if they treated superhero franchises in the same manner as James Bond 007. Im not a big James Bond fan or anything but i asked one of my friends if all the films were somehow connected and he said they were. Picture doin that with today’s comic book hero films. Keep the same director till the movies dont meet up to studio’s expectations and then bring in a new director w/ new cast that would continue on the franchise. A little example is Batman & Robin itself, it met studios expections in box office draws but received so much negative reviews that the already planned 5th film was canceled. It was too bad cause the studio was gonna go back to the darkness Tim Burton’s film had etc. But for a fanchise like X-Men, imagine takin the same idea from James Bond franchise and see how many films they could make outta the comics. Not just X-men, but any super hero franchise. Just a idea.
