[QUOTE=AaronM202;40221956]Most superheroes and supervillians have generic powers.[/quote]
Yeah, most. Not all. But most superheroes and super villains shouldn't make it to the movies, either
[Quote]And, yes, he's an obscure and unpopular villian, that doesnt mean he's going to be bad in the movie, do you want them to rehash Dr. Octopus or something?
How about instead of complaining about the choice, you wait and see how it turns out, because you're complaining about how he was in the comics, and im fairly certain Electro wasnt a 40 year old black man in the comics.[/quote]
Like I already said, I'm not saying its going to be bad for sure. But there shouldn't be anything wrong with speculating. And if we go by the "quit complaining and wait for when its finished" logic we might as well close every thread for movies that haven't been released yet.
[Quote]Go ahead.
I'll be waiting.[/QUOTE]
Yes, I could list all superheroes like that. Or I could just say that while there's hundreds of thousands of characters in comic books, there's barely any mainstream, big budget superhero movies, relatively speaking. At some point, there's gonna be nothing but reboots and unoriginal movies with those generic heroes you're talking about. But now, it's honestly a really good time for superhero movies, no matter how you look at it. Is it really too much to ask that they get more original characters for movies, while they still can?

Superman.
75% of the X-Men members from most of the movies.
Spider-Man himself, for the most part.
Manipulating electricity as a super power is, believe it or not, comparatively not common.

And before you say it, the only unique powers spider-man has are the extremely limited precognition and the clinging to walls.

Im not saying that, im saying stop complaining about the choice because he's an obscure and unpopular character that you think has generic powers (he really doesnt)
Superman, Spidey and the X-Men are the "originals" though. They might or might not have been the first ones with the powers they have, but that's how they're considered by the mainstream media, and I guess that's enough for the movies.
And sure, electricity as a power is not as common as speed or strength, but it's still in most of the modem hero movies (storm for x men, Thor for the avengers, even doom did nothing but use electricity, and now there's electro for Spider-Man)
but oh well, if its all gonna come down to opinion then I guess there's really no point in discussing it. I'll just hope I'm wrong about electro being a bad choice and that this turns out good.
[QUOTE=Flyingman356;40194752]Oh, I thought wolverine was a reboot.[/QUOTE]
Just like Origins, the new Wolverine is directed by and stars Hugh Jackman, though he's trying to make up for a lot of the things he fucked up in Origins so it should be much better.
Also, they literally can't recast Wolverine. Hugh Jackman [I]is[/I] Wolverine now.

Or rather, written by Jackman, not directed.

d00d they copied sonic s1descr0llers.
But on a more serious note, I think we are seeing the beginnings of the sinister six.
after credit scenes may be a file that says the name on it. Dane DeHaan (Harry Osborn) may play a part in the picture we got of the cabinet that held the venom symbiote in the cabinets.

Well, let me summarize what we're trying to put in a nice way but you arent apparently getting-
What your saying is[b] DUMB.
[/b]
Please think about what you're saying first because it is dumb.
[editline]11th April 2013[/editline]
Your whole argument is "Electro has (not) generic powers, why'd they choose him instead of rehashing someone they already used, terrible decision"
You just said superman is a generic hero and I'm dumb? Every time I said "it's my opinion that he's a bad choice because of this and this" you proceeded to be an asshole to me.
I'm saying what my opinion on electro is. And there's a shitload of Spider-Man villains they could use without making a lot of changes. While I did say I'd like them to use Venom I never said they needed to.
Your argument is that you "think" his powers are not generic, and... Yeah, that's it.
Well someone is always bound to not like a character as much as others so I think you are rightfully entitled to your opinion Zukriuchen. I also would've liked to see Venom remade for the films as Spiderman 3 rushed his story quite a bit. However I guess the film makers wanted to bring the spot light to other villains from the Spiderman universe because to a lot of people, the Raimi films are still fresh on their minds. And you're right they are a feces ton of villains they could use and Electro might not be the most interesting one out of all them. However they chose Electro and we will have to wait to see how well the film pulls it off.
i hope xmen and spiderman can cross over so they can have that part where wolverine goes into peters body and fucks mary jane
Also I believe that Electro is a fairly popular villain too. Like I said, we will have to wait and see how well they pull it off. I don't mind Electro, I think he's pretty cool and I like Jaime Fox. Still waiting for that good Venom film though.

Oh God no, ha. Wolverine gets enough attention as it is and I don't want him humiliating Spiderman, one of Marvel and one of my most favorite characters of all time. Well, I would see it if Peter gets pissed and punches him out the Stark tower.

No, i never said Superman was a generic hero.
I said he has generic powers, which he does, he may have been the first, but they're still generic powers, im not saying its a BAD thing.
Though really, i think such concepts as super strength, speed, endurance, and flight/incredible jumping power has existed for far longer than superman.
Also, my argument is that you shouldnt be saying he's a bad choice because of how he's been seen in the mainstream comics simply because theres a pool of universe to pull reference from, they might not have to change much, but amalgam it.
Also, no, control over electricity is not a generic power if you're going by how many characters have it.
Count how many have them off the top of your head.
Then count the amount of characters with super strength or speed or stamina or endurance or flight.

I was REALLY looking forward to seeing venom in this movie as the big villain, then seeing him becoming a reformed anti hero in spider man 3 while teaming up with spidey against carnage.[/QUOTE]
Yeah man whatever you say I should probably stop whining.
[QUOTE=AaronM202;40250004]Though really, i think such concepts as super strength, speed, endurance, and flight/incredible jumping power has existed for far longer than superman.[/QUOTE]
Ha I think that was the purpose of calling him SUPERman but then again, his powers could get pretty weird such as hearing radio waves, super ventriliquism, heat vision, super breath, freeze breath, vibrating fast enough to turn invisible and making his face appear blurry in pictures and extending his energy field over others.
However I agree with you about arguing that someone having generic powers makes them a bad character is not the right way to argue. Sure you could say that they seem less interesting because of that but still, it doesn't stop them from being a good character. The film makers could really get creative with Electro's powers. We haven't really seen his type of powers in a proper movie before. Not too many characters I've heard of has control of electricity.
I wonder what villains they'll use next in the game.
Don't they just kinda put whatever in the game? I never really played then that much, but I remember I used to be frightened of the Rhino fight in that PS1(?) game.

They used mostly animal based ones in the game based off the last movie since Lizard was the big bad so it wasn't really random.
Then Spider-Man will fight batteries and power generators this time

It sort of links as squids_eye points out. But they also have a story arc going on. I think Ock was involved with the creation of a few of the creatures. The Symbiote was used on Scorpion.
The story of the first PS1 game was Doc Ock and Carnage teamed up to form a symbiote invasion force to create a new breed of human, with him in control, which also "explained" the thick yellow fog throughout the game.
Rhino was implied to have been released from jail by him to wreck shit so he could steal stuff for his symbiote cloning machines.
On the topic of Rhino, I do think he's a good choice, even if he's just the big dumb brute kind of character.

Wait what.
You know. Big and dumb. And a brute.
I'm gonna make a guess and say Rhino will have a super limited role.
My guess is he'll either be beaten quick in the opening scene as a re-introduction to Peters world. Or he'll be battled in the opening scene only to escape and later Peter gets the Symbiotic Suit and takes him down without strain or mercy.
Depends of the Symbiote suit appears which I bet it will.

Well they need SOMETHING to set up the Venom feature film.
