so far so good the movie is still looking amazing. I do hope that they try to setup Venom again however, i hope they doing screw it up like they did in the last set of films. especially being that last time they prevented carnage from ever happening. and he was my favorite spiderman character.

To be honest, I don't really care about any of those upcoming Villians. I just want to know when Venom gets here. XD 

 

The first Spiderman comic I ever owned and read was the introduction of Electro, so I am really looking forward to this one if done right. Venom of course is awesome, but they already went there in recent times.

Well, the viral site The Daily Bugle journalist ?Ned Leeds? is hinting at even more villainy in his latest report:

The NYPD are the city?s greatest heroes, but sometimes even heroes are left scratching their heads. For instance, when $200,000 goes missing from the armored vault at G.K. Mason Bank.

Detective Stan Carter of the NYPD Major Crimes Unit was on scene to comment, stating, ?There?s still a lot we don?t know, but it looks like some kind of sustained vibration literally shook the door off its hinges and ripped the walls apart in the process.? Security cameras inside the bank were damaged upon the immediate forced entry of the robber, denying police a clear view of the perpetrator or the means of rupturing the vault.

When asked if the NYPD had concerns that the nature of the crime might indicate heightened super-human activity, Carter said, ?There?s no evidence to point to that yet. When we catch him, we don?t expect anything more than a common crook with a clever toy.

I don't care about the movie (still haven't seen TAS1, never liked the first trilogy), but I gotta say the new spidey costume looks great.

Then you should definitely watch the first film. It blows away that first trilogy on all aspects if you ask me.

If Goblin is back that doesn't bode well for Gwen, if they stick to the comic books then we all know what happens to her later.

True that! And they already showed the place where it happened as an easter egg in TASM1. There have been plenty of easter eggs in the previous film regarding villains as well.

Looks like Rhino is a machine instead of a mutant, that's a letdown :/ I thought he'd mutate into Rhino in the film. And there's a Goblin as well!

I don't think Rhino is similar to Lizard (Curt Connors). He's a mutate, like Spider-Man and the Hulk. He wasn't born with his powers and he's actually more similar to the Hulk because his strength was augmented because of gamma radiation exposure. In the comics, he wears a suit made of a durable material and makes himself look like a rhino.

Shows how much I actually don't know about Spider-Man. However, I don't like the fact that his suit is a robot suit in this film. I'd much rather have seen an actual Rhino suit like (apparently) the one from the comics.

I always thought Rhino was a man who mutated into the Rhino form by accident. I've never really read anything about his origin though. But I've just read that Alex O'Hirn is the Ultimate Marvel version of Rhino and uses a suit of armor known as R.H.I.N.O. that he stole from the U.S. Military. Perhaps they used that for inspiration.

Rhino was the result of Soviet Bloc experiment that gave him super strength and durability. But in this movie he's being played by Paul Giamatti so... yeah, robot. I would put a guy like Kane Hodder, Ken Kirzinger, or, and this would be absolutely perfect, Nathan Jones playing him. He never was particularly intelligent, only massively strong. Those guys would fit the bill to a T.

We all knew what was going to happen as soon as we saw that Emma Stone was Gwen and not Mary Jane. But they may end up deviating from the comics, as they did in the recent Wolverine movie.

Ah, thanks for the info! Nathan Jones has the proper looks for a Rhino if you ask me

He would be absolutely perfect as classical Spider-man Rhino. Dave Batista would also work, but he's more "stumpy" and way too tanned.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +Nik Louch · Posted

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By Yogurth · Posted

      The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4

      By Copernic · Posted

      LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.
