In this new clip from The Amazing
Spider-Man 2, Spidey and Green Goblin have a heartfelt conversation about their respective
parents, and seem to agree that they aren’t that fond of them.
Back in December it was announced
that Venom and the team of supervillains called Sinister Six were going to get
their own standalone movies, which will be I think very hard to achieve, but
thumbs up for at least trying, I mean isn’t the hero supposedly the lead? How
are they going to make a movie about villains? It's probably easier Venom’s case given that he is an anti-hero who more often than not goes rogue, but the
Sinister Six will be a tough one.
In a recent interview to SFX,
Matt Tolmach said:
"Obviously questions of
traditional hero/villain dynamics have to be looked at. At the same time it's
an awesome challenge, because some of the greatest characters are in fact
villains, and how you construct that is so much fun. People love those bad
characters if they're good bad characters, and love to watch them. And nobody's
all good, nobody's all bad, and so where we end up with that story, I think, is
a really awesome challenge, and we all smile when we think about what you can
do. It's definitely a bad-ass group of people and I think it's going to be a
ton of fun to watch them."
Producer Avi Arad gave is two
cents on the matter and spoke about the complexity of the Marvel villains and
why he thinks a character like Venom will work in his own film.
"With Marvel characters, the
villains are victims of circumstance. If you look at our villains, none of them
were born like that. Our villains are nice and complex and in the world of film
writing you can play with that, you can make some wonderful things out of it.
The Spider-Man universe has amazing villains, they are all character
driven…..Our villains all represent a different side of the misunderstood, and
some of them unfortunately turned to the dark side. Venom happened to be a
phenomenal character. With Eddie Brock, or if you do Flash Thompson, it doesn't
matter who is going to be inside the suit – what's important is that a man like
him is going to realize there comes a time when you wake up in the morning and
say 'How did I get here? There must be a better way.'"
