Otto Octavius And Oscorp Mentioned In Latest Daily Bugle Viral

Some people have visions of the future. Me?

I went and saw it with my own eyes.

Behind the ridiculously fortified superdoors of OsCorp Industries headquarters the future waits patiently for the rest of us to arrive. Only a privileged few reside there ? guardians of the secrets that only time (and intrepid journalists!) will reveal.

Under pressure to quiet growing Wall Street rumors of plans gone awry, OsCorp spokesman Donald Menken gave me a glimpse into that future.

I was only given limited access to this room, and legally I can?t discuss what I saw in detail. I can barely describe what I saw now. Had I stepped just one foot deeper, it would have been too overwhelming for me to handle.

Prototypes from the United States Military? CHECK. Alternative energy experiments? CHECK. Stuff I don?t understand enough to even describe it correctly? SUPERCHECK.

It?s like what my childhood closet would have looked like if all toys were free and unlimited ? but OsCorp?s toys can save the world?or obliterate it.

So, if the future is already in the warehouse, how do they keep advancing? When money is no object, it means the best facilities filled with the brightest minds in science.

The scientific rumor mill (there is such a thing ? I checked) has floated every leading name as a possible contributor. But none is more intriguing than world-renowned nuclear researcher Otto Octavius.

When asked about that rumor, Mr. Menken replied, ?I can?t confirm or deny any rumors you read on the web. We talk to a number of different scientists every day about our special projects.?

Eddie Brock And The Enforcers Featured In Latest Daily Bugle Viral

What began as a mob shoot-out escalated into a full-blown superhuman slugfest when the vigilante known as Spider-Man appeared on the scene. An argument inside the Zero One Lounge turned ugly when reputed mob enforcer, ?Fancy? Dan Brito, pulled a gun on rivals from the Manfredi crime family. As club-goers fled onto the streets of the Meatpacking District, Spider-Man dropped down out of the sky.

Not content to merely take the law into his own hands, bystanders claimed that Spider-Man mocked the thugs as he delivered a one-two punch that sent them soaring.

?It was hard to see from where I was hiding,? said witness Andrea Moore of Park Slope, ?but I heard someone, I?m pretty sure it was Spider-Man, say, ?I hope you?re not afraid of heights,? and then one of those guys screamed as he landed on top of a fire escape.?

When pressed about any crimes she may have witnessed Spider-Man committing, Moore replied, ?Crimes? It?s not a crime to round up stray dogs. What the hell are you talking about??

Spider-Man disappeared as police arrived to find a dozen mobsters restrained with unmistakable webbing. Brito and his accomplices, Jackson ?Montana? Brice and Raymond ?The Ox? Bloch, spent the night in the 10TH Precinct holding cell. The NYPD has yet to announce what charges, if any, they plan to bring against the smack-talking vigilante.

Brito, led away in handcuffs, was overheard describing the encounter with the web-slinger: ?Just when I thought I was out, he pulled me back in.?

Im guessing this movie is gonna be just a big lead up to #3.

I just hope they're not going to put the Enforcers in the same film as the Sinister Six or Venom. Venom and Spidey need a movie of their own imo.

the idea of rebooting spider-man series is flat out absurd. When this movie come out transformer:age of extinction is gonna take over the box office. 

The idea wasn't that absurd I guess, because it got a sequel and will be a potential trilogy.

Back to the topic: About the only thing I don't like about this movie so far is Rhino's costume, but I can cut them some slack because I can't really see any other way to do the character.

Venom has to be a re-occuring villian IMO. He can't just appear once and leave.

It's actually a good thing that they're going with the comic book version. It's a bit extreme but it isn't far-fetched. I think it's far better than an animal/Human hybrid like the Lizard.

(I had typed something completely opposite before editing this post, saying Venom as a re-occuring villain would become stale. I gave your idea some more thought though)

That's true, but they could have him appear in a Spider-Man film and later on in his own film with perhaps Carnage. And then 1 or 2 films later again in a Spider-Man film along with Toxin, perhaps leading up to the "War of the Symbiotes"?

The suit they're using isn't the comic-book version though. You're right though that it's not extreme or far-fetched, but I'd much rather have seen the original Rhino in this film. They've kinda made him like Iron Man now to some extend :p

Better than the last one, not sure how indicative of the movie this is, but I'm glad they're keeping the humor around, that last scene with Gwen was great. All in all it could be a decent comic book movie, which isn't really saying much, but at least it's better than a ###### one.

A shocking Midtown bank robbery was foiled yesterday by Spider-Man. New York?s superhuman vigilante caught the mechanically augmented robber, suspected in two previous bank heists, as he fled the scene with the stolen loot.

Police arrived on the scene as Spider-Man finished webbing up the suspect, who was arrested and later identified as disgruntled engineer, Herman Schultz. Schultz created wrist-gauntlets that are capable of emitting a vibratory wave of pressure that proved capable of tearing apart a four-foot thick steel vault.

NYPD Special Crimes Unit Detective Stan Carter stated that Schultz had officially been remanded into custody and is being held at the Ravencroft Institute pending his preliminary hearing. When asked how a ?disgruntled engineer? could create such dangerous weapons, Carter said, ?Shocking, right? All that genius but no escape plan.?

    • 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"
