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.

They might, we'll see.

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

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      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"
