Spiderman, Rebooted

[ScottotD]

Nikki Finke is reporting Anne Hathaway has been approached for a role.  I believe they're going for the recently naturalized to the U.S. by way of England demographic.

If they do go for Black Cat, I think Anne Hathaway would be pretty great.

Me too!

Ah yes! Yet another woman dressed up in a cat costume fighting crime. Movies with that kind of subject matter ALWAYS go over well! I apologize if this statement seems sarcastic in any way.

[TeamRAD]

Oh man, that isn't what I wanted to read this morning, the Hathaway news!

*isn't a fan*

I would, however, totally buy her as Shriek. That would actually be pretty badass. But the BC, I can't see it, but w/ Grace cast as Venom, I could see this happening. Whatever, just make the Lizard happen, Sam! (and some Gwen screen-time)

Interesting read...

So it sounds like there will be fewer foes in the next instalment. Raimi said he had learned some new lessons and storytelling tricks from his recent horror flick Drag Me to Hell which was a smaller and more intimate production.

He said: "I think I've learned about the importance of getting to the point and the importance of having limitations, and I'm hoping to take that into a production where I'm actually allowed to explore with more of the tools to pull it off with a little more splendour.

"I hope I don't lose that edge that I've just found. That would be my approach to Spider-Man 4: to get back to the basics."

Is anyone really doubting him?

Eliza, I'll second this motion...

I just hope that "new direction" is away from crying like a bitch.

but then it wouldn't be Spider-man

I think i will be waiting for netflix with this one.  After Spiderman 3 and movies like The dark knight I don't think a Spiderman movie will be worth my $7.50.

DocWho, I'll bet you a Rifftrax that you'll be seeing this at some point in the theater...

[TeamRAD]

Okay, this has gotten so bizarre, and I'm hoping this is the worst rumor, ever...

What?!!!! That makes zero-sense. 



Awwwwww...

And as much as I don't care for the Vulture, the casting of Malkovich for the role has promise.  But the Vulturess?!!!! Sam, what in the hell?

*stares up at sky*

NO!!!!

[Doctor Who?]

Looks like my choice to never watch another Sam Rami movies after seeing Spiderman 3 was a good one.  He has lost any talent he may have had. He is insane now.

[ScottotD]

Blasphemy.

Yes.  Let's write him off after delivering one slightly disappointing movie that seemed to be a product of internal battles with the producers and despite the fact that he made a really cool horror movie just recently.  No second chances!

I'll believe the rumors when I see them in practice.  Sure, I do think Raimi dropped the ball with Spider-Man 3, but I'm not going to believe everything I read on characters being changed or whatever.  I mean, rumors fly everywhere, I remember when it was common knowledge that Micheal Jackson was supposed to play the Joker in Tim Burton's Batman.  Everyone I talked to about it swore it was true.
