In Spiderman 2, he's the usher at the theater that won't let Peter in.

And in Spiderman 4 he's that guy ... you know, the only part worth watching the movie for.

That's not a perspective I agree with, actually...

Of all the Marvel films produced so far, the SM series has been the most consistent and the most fun to watch. 'Tis almost like watching the comic on the silver screen...

I am totally French wee? Trust me, French.

(Spoiler: He is totally not French lol).

I loved that whole scene with him in it. :wink:

Also was I the only one that thought the new goblin was far superior to just about every other comic movie villian? (including the green goblin). From the mask to the flying skateboard, I think he was a cool character.

If Doom had been handled properly for the FF film, there'd be no contest -- Doom FTW.

You aren't alone in thinking that about Goblin Jnr however, Coan. It seems to be an opinion shared by many online -- he apparently makes a very convincing villain.

Really? See, I thought it was pretty darned mediocre as a villian ... I'd much rather have Magneto, or Gabriel from "Constantine".

He had a passion for it, but wasn't terribly interesting to watch and certainly wasn't frightening.

Oh, I'm not saying I completely agree with the general consensus that Goblin Jnr made a great villain. An intriguing villain for sure... and his mental meanderings regarding the "right" and "wrong" of his actions were somewhat convincing. Though, I certainly didn't think he was "evil" in the truest sense of the word.

Lost, perhaps. And maybe a little confused and conflicted over his true feelings.

I completely disagree. I thought he was just an attempt to make an XTREME! villain, who's look simply played on popular XTREME! sports.

If you want a villain who's going to be great, check out Harvey Dent's biggest critic's page...

Does that mean what I think it means? Not only the Joker but Two-Face in the next Batman movie? *rubbing hands eagerly together*

Harvey Dent appears in the Dark Knight, Two-Face is slated for the third one.

It's perfect I like both Joker and two-faces.

As about the goblin, I liked it, it didn't have extreme powers and I agree that it was lost and conflcted about his true feelings.

And that being the case, will there be a Robin or Batgirl? And what about the Justice League Movie is that true or not?

The movie guys said the Batman in the movie is still young, so Robin would still a small child at the time.

No to neither. Dick and Babs will be far too young at this point.

The JL film is apparantly true, with Superman leading the team. No news on if Batman will be in it.
