Film School Rejects: Bruce Campbell Could Be Spider-Man 4 Villain; But Which One?

  • Regi_S · 2 months ago
    As I've stated maybe here and on other sites. Bruce should have been Kraven the Hunter since the first Spiderman. Use Ultimate Kraven where he has the syndicated reality television series where he hunts big game. Have him come in to town hunting down the Lizard that has been terrorizing the locals. Have Parker have a few run ins with the Lizard early on. During those run ins Parker figures out the Lizard is Dr Connors and ends up helping escape Kraven. Then Kraven changes his focus and starts to hunt Spiderman for making him look like on failure on his television series.

    I do like the idea of him playing Kraven, considering magic and illusion is a bit much for this series...it could end up giving us more Spidey 3 moments...I agree that Bruce cannot do wrong but as we've seen Raimi can....I do give him credit because of that whole rushing the project to meet the release date..although he could have easily noticed in the editing bay how horrible those scenes were...

    Sounds a lot like the Spider-Man 3 video game for Wii/PS2. . .

    I think its a little too soon to assume that he will play a villain. /Film (yes I have been cheating on you FSR) made a good point in saying that Bruce Campbell's characters (or character?) have actually had major roles in the movies, causing trouble between Peter and MJ in the second film, and facilitating Peter wedding proposal in the third. Its possible that when he said he would have a large role, he was referring to something along those lines.

    Going with that Bruce will have to be Black Cat. That way he can totally put Peter's relationship with MJ in jeopardy as Spidey's new love interest. :)

    I really do hope they eventually add Felicia Hardy/Black Cat into the films..I mean Spider-Man was always famous for his team-ups with other heroes...since Harry is dead and you can't take from the Marvel Universe outside of the Spidey characters... let Black Cat help out Parker against the the Lizard or whoever Bruce is playing...

    also give MJ a rest even Stan Lee expected Gwen Stacy to end up with Parker...give fans a break from Dunst

    I've suspected you of cheating all along... Always knew you were loose like that.

    I don't like Bruce as Kraven. Much better for Mysterio. Oded Fehr is by far the best choice for Kraven. The guy from the Mummy and Deuce Bigalow.

    If Bruce got back into shape he could play the Reality-TV version of Kraven, not the comic book version. I love Bruce Campbell to death, but he has definitely packed on some pounds.

    Lol a few?? I too love The Brucester but he would need to shed 40 pounds to get to the comic level.

    That'd be just about the best possible villain he could play. The whole working class Hollywood type is spot on. I just hope they don't replace him with a CGI doll for the whole picture, just because his face would be hidden behind a fish bowl helmet head.
  • Regi_S · 2 months ago
    Exactly. How could the chin shine when it's hidden behind a fish bowl?

    I am also here to announce that my role in Spider-Man 4 will be much bigger than my roles in the other films.

    (This gets me a bigger role, right?)

    I'm giving Spidey one more chance, if only because of Bruce's involvement...you never know we could find out Bruce is Parker's father or something stupid...or just a bigger cameo, instead of the villain "rumor"..

    I'm wondering more about the Spider-Man 5-6 storyline...I was thinking that the Sinister Six would be involved...I'm thinking a little outside the box lately though, what about Ben Reily/Scarlet Spider?...it would go back to the science-fiction themes and could be the way to still have Spider-Man films without Tobey....

    PRICELESS
  • Aleric · 2 months ago
    So how many villians is this one going to have? The last one had three so Rami has to top that, say six?
  • Christopher_M · 2 months ago
    Sinister Six is more than likely in films 5 and 6
  • Aleric · 2 months ago
    Ah ha, good one. Hadn't considered that.
