I had an idea for how the sequel could open (mild spoilers, it also gets a tad... script-y...):
[sp]It's assumed that Cpt. Stacy's squad is going to be transformed into Lizardmen. It's also assumed that Spidey saves him, earning his trust. The sequel could open with a press conference being held by George Stacy:
"For saving myself, my daughter Gwen, and indeed everyone living in our fair city, it is my pleasure to honor Spider-Man, a true, American-"
*cut to a black-and-white picture of Stacy at the podium*
"MENACE."
*picture swings down, revealing J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson*
JJJ: "THAT'S WHAT HE IS, A MENACE! What's this world coming to? One second this wall-crawling insect is public enemy number one, the next minute he's got his own holiday!"
Assistant: "Actually, uh, Mr. Jameson, sir, uh, spiders are actually arachnids, not insects..."
JJJ: "Huh... that's actually very interesting. You know what else?"
Assistant: "What?"
JJJ: "You're fired. *intercom* Miss Brandt, please make sure the door doesn't hit this gentleman on the way out."
*Assistant leaves, Robbie enters*
Robbie: "Jonah, this week's sales just came in. You'll want to see this."
JJJ: *looks at report* "WHAT? THE GLOBE? WE'RE BEING BEATEN BY THAT RAG? HOW?"
Robbie: *hands him a copy of the Globe* "See for yourself."
*really shit picture of Spider-Man on the cover*
Robbie: "You might not like him Jonah, but the guy sells papers."
JJJ: "Alright, no problem. Miss Brandt? Send our photographer to get some pictures of that spandex-ed fruit loop."
Betty: "You just fired him, sir."
JJJ: "Oh... NEW IDEA! Robbie, here's your page one, "PHOTOGRAPHERS WANTED: Daily Bugle willing to pay top dollar for your pictures of Spider-Man!", scratch that, "Daily Bugle willing to pay for pictures of Spider-Man!". It's perfect! A bunch of freelance photographers come in here, we buy their pictures of that creep for next to nothing, we boost our sales and expose that fraud for what he really is!"
Assistant 2: "It's a brilliant plan, sir."
JJJ: "Shut up. Robbie, how soon can you print this?"
Robbie: "We can make the Sunday edition if we hurry."
JJJ: "Beautiful, go."
*Robbie and Assistant 2 leave, Jameson hits the intercom*
JJJ: "Miss Brandt, get me a pastrami on rye with mustard."
Betty: "All we have is whole wheat."
JJJ: "Find out who stocked the break room with that beatnik rabbit food and tell them they can power-walk all the way down to the unemployment office!"
*Jameson hangs up, spins around to face his window, and chomps down on a cigar*
JJJ: "I'll squash him like the bug that he is... THAT'S the power of the press..."

Conan O'Brian has said that, if he had to have only one job, it would be to sit alone in the desert writing diologue for Mr. Burns.
I'm kinda the same way, but with J. Jonah Jameson.
A bit of behind-the-scenes

Pretty much a 4 min long trailer, lots of footage.
That bridge scene could just rival the train scene in Spiderman 2.
Awesome trailer, so Gwen finds out about spiderman early...though, we know he's meant for Mary Jane.

So far so perfect
I wonder if they're going to do the whole thing that happened with Gwen Stacy in the comics.
[sp]Spider-Man trying to save her from a fall to her death off a bridge, but accidentally breaking her neck and killing her in the process.[/sp]
However, it's the Green Goblin that triggers that, making him Spider-Man's nemesis, not the Lizard.
But things could change.

I'm scared someone other than JK Simmons would play Jameson.
[QUOTE=venn178;35998432]I'm scared someone other than JK Simmons would play Jameson.[/QUOTE]
I remember reading somewhere that they were originally going to have J.K. Simmons show up in TASM as JJ, but they decided to establish the universe in the first movie, then expand it in the sequels (basically, to make sure the public understands this isn't the Raimiverse. If I were a common viewer and I saw J.K. Simmons in the new movie, I'd be a tad confuzzled.)

If they did, they'd have to do the Green Goblin again, I don't think they will, not so soon (relatively) after Spiderman 1 and Willems great performance as him. But if they did, they better go with the Original Goblin and none of this techy crap.
I said that earlier in the thread and somebody posted a video of them testing out the original Goblin outfit. It looked identical to the comics.
Apparently the actor didn't like wearing it or it was too scary or some crap.

If they do Green Goblin it should be an arc. In the comics Goblins identity was a mystery and then BAM Harrys Dad reveals himself.
I'm guess the "Did you tell the boy about his father" voice is Norman Osborn OR maybe it's Goblin himself as it is a Green Goblin-like voice. The Goblin will probably make cameos for a few films before being the main focus. Or maybe it's just a cliffhanger for Spider-Man 2.
I think Ock and a brief Minor villain (ala Dark Knight) should be the focus of 2. 3 should very much be Goblin and Symbiote suit. The notion of both Peter and Norman fighting personal demons would work well. Venom should be saved and if used, be on his own and not just a third act villain. But with Sony pushing the Venom movie it could go tits up and Venom could be forced on us next. But it's too early for Venom. Far too early.
If they do Venom, Lethal Protector would be pretty fun.
And yeah, the costume was "too scary" which is annoying. A man who fused 4 Sentient Mechanical limbs to his spine wasn't scary, but a man who's the victim of industrial sabotage and poisons pregnant women, throws people off Bridges and mentally fucks his son over, that's too scary. And he dresses like a goblin.
I would kinda like Tombstone to show up....played by David Keith

that hospital scene in Spidey 2 was scarier and freakier than anything in the first film
also i think Shocker would make a nice minor villain, or maybe Vulture

I would absolutely love to see Vulture in a film.
Vulture, Shocker, Scorpion and Rhino would make great minor side villains as none of them could carry a film effectively by themselves. Same applies to Sandman but somebody obviously didn't care.
I imagine if we had 4 films to introduce Goblin, Venom, Lizard and Ock we're okay. Have Vulture appear in one as a brief side villain, Electro in Spidey 5. Then Sinister 6 for film 6. Simples.
We should make Spider-man.
I'm just thinking about future villains
Kraven played by Gerald Butler would be a good choice. But equally Chameleon can be terrifying.

Chameleon could be, but he'd have to be done right. He has no super powers after all.
Mm, but I was reading a comic where he was REALLY scary. He then replaced Peter Parker and fucked his room mate. He learnt all of Peters secrets apart from him being Spider-man.

I want Osborn I mean he is practically Spidermans greatest enemy.
He is his greatest enemy. No questions asked, closest contender is Venom. Because fuck yeah Venom.
When did Chameleon fuck Harry Osborn?

When that little skank kept coming onto him that one crazy night at Kraven's.

Not Peters flat mate, peter had some girl who he was best friends with. Then he got drunk and fucked her and called her Mary Jane. Before he had a chance to fix it Chameleon fucked her again AS Peter.

The Sinister Six appearing in a Spider-Man movie is like a childhood dream for me. The problem is that I [i]really[/i] liked Al as Ock, and I would hope he could make a return. It would be weird though considering this is a reboot. Like Simmons playing JJJ. I can't see anyone else playing him.

You know...
I haven't seen what he looks like nowadays... but what about Peter McNicol?
He voiced Ock in Spectacular Spider-Man, I think he could do a damn fine job.
In my opinion he didn't suit Ock at all in the cartoon. Made him sound geeky and weak.

Round issue 600
That's kind the key with Ock though.
Or atleast the Ock I like the most.
Physically, he's totally weak.
Spidey punches him in the jaw?
He's out cold.
He's truly dangerous because of his mind. He's a [sp]Master Planner[/sp]. Not to mention, completely egotistical. He'll develop a brilliant plan for every possible contingency, taunting anyone who stands in his way.
Plus, the fact that he was just Norman's underling while being VASTLY more intelligent helped feed the contempt he felt for everyone who underappreciated him. He'd LIKE to tell Osborn to go fuck himself, but he can't. With the arms, HE CAN. He feels entitled, above everyone else, but it's only through the arms that he can actually back up what he believes.
But making Ock pathetic and geeky isn't fun.
Sure he's weak, the most interesting part of him as a super villain is he isn't a super villain. He's a normal human with 8 arms. I like the idea of emphasising him being bullied and an outcast but he's smart and strong willed too. He's like Parker in that sense.
Rami was worse however as he seemed to abandon this to make him into a misunderstood martyr
