| Well, you know, when I first started making the Spider-Man films, I tried to stay as true to the comic book as possible, and not push my own personal styles or tastes onto the film. I really just tried to make something that was true to the comic book, and true to the idea of the comic book. And then, when it came time to make a sequel to that film… well, then I had a different master I had to follow, I had to make a sequel to the film, not the comic book. So it took on a little bit more of a filmic DNA, and therefore maybe more of what I do. And maybe that process just kept happening. That’s the best I can say." |
And look how that worked out for you with Spiderman 3

Coming Soon.net: Comics2Film.com says that in a new interview at BlogTalkRadio.com, Zodiac screenwriter James Vanderbilt talked about coming on board to write Spider-Man 4.
"I went in on that. I really loved the films," Vanderbilt said. "It's sort of an odd process because you're sitting down with the people who made the first three and going, 'Well let me tell you what to do.'
"But I was lucky enough that they were interested in me and I'm a huge fan of those movies, so we closed that up right before the strike. Once the strike's over I get to go to work," he added.
No release date has been set for the fourth installment. |

Coming Soon.net: Cinematical has received an unconfirmed scoop saying that Zodiac screenwriter James Vanderbilt has turned in a working draft for Spider-Man 4 to Sony Pictures.
The really interesting thing, however, is that they say his story arc encompasses two films, opening up the possibility that the studio might shoot the fourth and fifth film at the same time!
If this is indeed accurate, we'll have to see if director Sam Raimi, Tobey Maguire, and others will return for the two films. |

Coming Soon.net: ComingSoon.net/Superhero Hype! talked to "Spider-Man" franchise director Sam Raimi this week and got his thoughts on making more sequels.
"James Vanderbilt is writing the script and I'm excited to read it. I think it's going to be done in a few months," Raimi told us, adding, "I'm hoping it's as great as our discussions were about it and I'm hoping it feels right for me because I love Spider-Man. I'm hoping I'm well rested enough to embrace it and I'm hoping Sony wants me to do it. If all of those things come together, I would love to do it. There are a lot of unknowns about the future."
And how does he feel about re-casting key players if needed? "I'd hate to re-cast anybody in the future, I can't imagine that." |

This may sound dumb...but has Sam directed all three spider-man movies?
Loved the first one, really enjoyed the 2nd one, and never even saw the third one (mostly due to negative reaxctions on CL  )
Do you think he is the right director for the job, or should Marvel (or sony?) look for a new director for the 4th installment?
I think it kinda devalues a movie by the time you reach the 4th one. Do you think they should take spidey in a different direction? I heared they blew the Venom storyline hard...can it be salvaged? I think its an absolute no-brainer to have Carnage in the next one. The whole serial killer background would breath some new life into Spidey and make it a little more gritty (kinda like Dark Knight). |

Coming Soon.net: The Los Angeles Times reports that "Spider-Man" franchise producer Laura Ziskin said the fourth installment is tentatively scheduled to hit theaters in May 2011.
Already scheduled for the month of May that year are Marvel's own The First Avenger: Captain America on the 6th and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II.
Ziskin added that the screenplay is not finished yet, but that she and Sony Pictures were hopeful Spider-Man 4 could be ready in three years' time.
Neither star Tobey Maguire nor director Sam Raimi is yet committed to work on the next installment, but Sony has paid Marvel to renew its rights. |

Well one thing about the 3rd movie is that it did leave some possible storylines. Like they have been building up Dr. Connors/The Lizard for all three Spiderman movies. Also remember Connors also kept some of the venom symbiote- so maybe he somehow comes in contact with the serial killer who becomes Carnage. Also I think they should have ran with Peter's love triangle between Mary Jane and Gwen Stacey (they could have just ended the movie at Harry's funeral). Sandman could come back, but I don't know in what role. Spiderman 3, depending on who you talk too, taught us what happens when a movie has too many villians. I think Lizard would have to be the main villain (its always good when the audience can sympathizes with the villain). If you have to add a third villain I think it should either be Shocker (the only guy I could see killing Sandman- shocks him into glass) or Kingpin (use the same established character from the Daredevil movie.
Hero: Spiderman and possibly Sandman (briefly)
Love Interest: Mary Jane and Gwen Stacey
Villains: Dr. Connors/The Lizard, Carnage (using the leftover symbiote with the serial killer), and either Kingpin or Shocker (who could kill Sandman)

wow.....Spider-man and Captain America are going to be competing? Why couldn't Sony schedule another date? I don't want Marvel characters fighting against each other (unless its on the big screen )

I think maybe Sony is heeding the thoughts of Iron Man Director John Favreau when he said that studios should allow 3 years in between films in order to come up with a script worthy of shooting. In talking about a script, Ziskin said there was no finished screenplay, but that she and Sony Pictures were hopeful “Spider-Man 4” could be ready in three years’ time.
Hopeful sounds like they weren’t moved by the recent draft enough to go forward with the project in my mind. It’s probably best to sit tight for a while and let all the current flood of comic films to settle down a bit. Although competition does provide for a better product, Spiderman did just fine when it was the only show in town.
You can also say the 3rd installment of the web crawler was a disappointment and rather than make the same mistake twice, the producers are trouble shooting and fine tuning for a strong comeback! Either way, Spiderman will take a powder for a bit and regroup. |

I like to see Raimi back, but not anyone else. They're too old by then. Tobey was OK, but I would like to see someone else take a stab at it.
Dude, how badass would it be if it copies the style of Sin City/300. I'm sick of all these "reality" type superhero movies approach. Give us something crazy. I think it's the only way to show Venom, Carnage or Lizard in it's full glory. |

spiderman 4 and it won't be close at all. The general fan loves and I mean LOVES spiderman for god only knows why. Plus as bad as the story for spiderman 3 was and the fact that venom only had 15 mins in the film the freaking action scenes were so ridiclousy good I even bought the DVD and I bash the living crap out of it 
If it has the same level of fight scenes and a even half way decent story #1 movie that year. It would take them literally putting out the avengers to have a shot.

I hope sam raimi comes back and is allowed to call the shots.
The way he wanted it was...
Sandman and vulture escape from pirson so peter has to stop them and then there is the goblin. Which would have been cool to see spiderman and vulture going at it in mid-air.
The studio pushed hard for a venom moment and it just didn't fit well. At this point Venom is very redunant. Basically his high pts are that he knows that peter is spiderman and tortures him with it. We've seen that in the last 2 movies and harry knew it so it kind of made venom pointless.
Even with all that said harry vs peter alone probaluy could have carried spiderman 3. Still love how much of a sinister villian harry got. Screwing around with peter's head. Plus the goblin bomb in the face was priceless.
As for carnage no thanks. If you want gritt give me the kingpin and introudce the sinister six. If not that then they can big and introduce electro which will be stunning on the big screen. then throw in some lizard or vulture.

If they bring the same cast back, I hope it bombs to hell and Marvel can get the rights to Spidey back.

Thats what I said. He's already established and was okay as Kingpin (from what I remember of that movie)...

I would love to have him back. He is a very established actor. He is also very intimatding and he gave a solid perfromance as a big time crime lord that I wouldn't want to mess with becuase if he didn't straight up take you out he will get someone who can.

Spidey 4 & 5 Swing Back to Back; Both To Have Tobey and Raimi
| Quote: |
Deadline Hollywood is reporting that Sony has locked in both Tobey McGuire and Sam Raimi for Spider-Man 4 and 5:
It's time to end once and for all the rampant speculation. Sony doesn't want any info to leak but I'm told that both star Tobey Maguire and director Sam Raimi will be returning to make Zodiac screenwriter Jamie Vanderbilt's script of Spider-Man 4. Sources tell me that Sony has recently locked in both veterans of Spider-Man 1 through 3. And I do mean recently because just a few weeks ago sources told me that Sony Pictures co-chairman Amy Pascal was openly discussing Tobey's potential replacements [A topic we covered back in May] with various Hollywood agents because Tobey was hanging tough about a deal. "She was looking around to cover herself because Sony wanted him badly and Tobey wasn't sure he wanted to do it," an insider explained to me. There's no deal yet for Kirsten Dunst but Mary Jane Watson will be in the movie again. I'm told Sony "would never recast her" despite her rehab problems. But expect another gal part, too.
Sony would never recast Kirsten Dunst? Why? Was she that awesome in the role? I don't think so. There are a ton of actresses who coud play the part. Besides, Mary Jane in the comic books looked more...what's the word I'm looking for...womanly to me. Is womanly a word? If it isn't, then it is now.
The article continues on about the spinoff Venom movie that I believe can only be awesome as [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] or suck major donkey balls. I don't think there will be any middle ground on this one:
And Sony has hired a pair of screenwriters to get going on the Spider-Man spinoff movie Venom. Given that comic book artist/writer and action figure maker, Todd McFarlane, who is one of the creators of the Marvel villain, doesn't think a Venom movie could do well with a villain as the central character, my sources think Sony should let Topher Grace, even though he was blown up at the end of Spider-Man 3 (yet a portion of the Venom costume survived), stay in the role because the likeable actor could be a a sympathetic evildoer. |

| After seeing the third, I was hoping Tobey would be replaced. And even Raimi. But it's nice to hear they're making more & not rebooting already. |
