5 Things I Want To See in Spider-Man 2012

Here are a few things I'd like to see in the upcoming Spider-Man reboot.

1. NO WEB SHOOTERS! I personally loved the organic shooters portrayed in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man, and to me at least, they seemed more believable that he really had super powers (unlike with the other web shooters, which make it seem a little faker).

2. If they're gonna put Venom in any inevitable sequel, then he needs much more screen time than he had on Spider-Man 3. In fact, one of the flaws I had with it was that he had too little screen time, while Sandman took up the most of the three villains. I'd rather see Venom be the main villain of a movie. Oh, and a much more muscular version (like in Ultimate Spider-Man) would be awesome.

3. I would much rather not see the mask have big eyes (example: http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.netbug.net/blognetbug2/wp-content/uploads/ultimate-spiderman.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.joblo.com/index.php%3Fid%3D236&usg=__DGsXbK8N43HHovVZNFu5N243TfY=&h=317&w=320&sz=20&hl=en&start=0&sig2=ScTgPFWoYDtGM-6xRTfnKw&zoom=1&tbnid=_JhqedqtMDZ9eM:&tbnh=121&tbnw=124&ei=aQsyTdyjEsP98AbzhNy-CA&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dspider-man%2Bbig%2Beyes%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26biw%3D1366%26bih%3D677%26tbs%3Disch:10,71&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=439&oei=aQsyTdyjEsP98AbzhNy-CA&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=37&ved=1t:429,r:17,s:0&tx=55&ty=58&biw=1366&bih=677 ), because they feel very unnatural compared to an average-sized set. Also, it should match up with the rest of the suit perfectly.

4. I think they should stay truer to the comics (I mean really...Raimi originally planned in Spider-Man 4 to have Felicia Hardy [who becomes Black Cat] turn into the 'Vultress'...give me a break). Tobey Maguire, although playing Peter Parker/Spider-Man perfectly, seemed too old for the role of a high school student. Andrew Garfield, even though he's in his late 20s, already has that brilliant look of Spidey.

5. Last, but not least, take advantage of Spidey's villain gallery! One of the villains supposed to appear in 2012 Spider-Man is Proto-Goblin, who I have not heard of until they announced a 'Van Atter' will be in the movie (and that's coming from someone who's very familiar with the gallery). Spidey has perhaps the greatest villain gallery of any super hero (rivaled only by Batman), so if they're going to use mostly unknown villains, it'll only make the movie(s) weaker than they would if they incorporated more well-known villains (such as Vulture, Mysterio, Carnage, etc).

Well, here's my first editorial on here. Please keep the comments tame and not rude, and lemme know what y'all think!
