The idea that they couldn't end the film at the iconic church scene where Peter rips off the symbiote and it bonds to Venom and seeing that as unsatisfying is very strange to me, as by all accounts that's the perfect logical endpoint if you're looking to do a cliffhanger ending.

[@Bulletsandblockbusters]

Agreed

Avi Arad: The vulture wasn’t a compelling enough villain. Jon Watts and Michael Keaton: Y’all hear something?

[@peterparker9214]

The sandman character was perfect in this film. The scene of him pulling himself together after being created, is absolutely heart wrenching. The look on his sandy cgi face when he can’t pick up his daughters picture is one of the saddest things, but it also makes you root for him in that moment.

[@Noob_Guy2k]

If the studio wasn’t stubborn they could’ve ended part one w Peter losing the symbiote setting venom up for 4

[@georgeclarke3042]

If that happened you can bet Sony wouldn’t think on rebooting at that moment in time especially with a ending like that.

[@mrv7916]

I always thought that the original idea was for Sandman to be the main villain for Spider-Man 3. Also, at the end of Spider-Man 2, it looked like Harry Osborn would had been the main villain for Spider-Man 3 and become the Green Goblin. I personally would had prefer to have Harry or Sandman be the main villain for Spider-Man 3. Really wish Sony had let Raimi go with his original plans for Spider-Man 3 & 4. I think had they done this and ask Raimi to do Spider-Man 5 & 6, with Venom & Carnage as the main villain for the fifth one and the Lizard for the sixth movie.

[@Earth12181]

@thedlsking1628 setting up both venom and carnage along with symbiote spiderman would be a mess,the story could mainly focus on spiderman's symbiote suit and Harry in sm3 peter killing harry in the end because of the symbiote rage with a post credit scene where we see spiderman ripping off venom and the symbiote catches Eddie brock. Then spiderman 4(2011) Eddie's symbiote being a villain in sm4 with Mary Jane dying and venom almost exposes Peter's secret identity(just like spectacular spider)and in the post credits we see a shot of cletus kasidy,in the prison as well as venom reproducing and giving birth to red symbiote which catches clutus kasady,spiderman 4 ends. Spiderman 5(2013-14) Carnage as a main villain,he made the whole city into a manace making everyone just like himself,Gwen being Peter's love interest but in the end Aunt May couldn't survive the carnage attack and dies,later Peter,Iron man and Hulk team up to make a cure and spread it to the whole city,they also team up to fight the carnage in the end with Peter and Gwen getting engaged 💍 and that would be the end of spiderman 5 Spiderman 6(2018)[10 years since the events of spiderman 5] The peter and Gwen engagement was just imagination of peter,as we get to know he is suffering from schizophrenia after MJ and Aunt May's death peter has got a bit older like,he's in his late 30s he has stopped pulling his puches too,this is a physiological thriller movie focusing on Peter's mental health,Gwen is there to help him though and Mysterio being the villain who played with the mind of peter using his illusions,we find out that peter didn't had any mental issues they were just the illusions of Mysterio,his intention to ruin peter is because he is jealous of peter and he always wanted to be a superhero but spiderman took all the limelight we see the story of Mysterio as he was the first superhero of this universe the time when peter was about 10 year old(he got his powers when he was 18) Mysterio while fighting a villain got injured and was in coma for 8 years then spiderman came and most everybody forgot Mysterio In the end peter defeats Mysterio using his spider sense Spiderman 7(2021)[this will be a logan style movie] The last movie peter has got pretty old like 43-45 years of age the movie starts with peter and gwen marriage(it's real this time) but peter is ageing a lot quicker meanwhile we see Miles getting spider powers so peter trains him making him discover the meaning of "responsibility" in the end peter dies fighting The 4 villains-Venom(as he isn't dead),carnage(as he is just in the jail not dead),Vulture,Sandman(who later gets in Peter's team) Peter,Miles and Sandman tried hard but they were not able to save peter in the end In the post credit scene we see all the loving moments and how she was there for pwter when MJ and May died and we also see Gwen's delivery of a child and named her as May Parker! Cast Carnage-Jim Carey Venom-Topher Grace Mysterio-Jake gyllenhaal(he played it the best imo) Vulture-Johnathan Banks Harry-James Franco Gwen-Bryce Dallas Howard Miles Morales-Myles Truitt Spiderman-Tobey Maguire(obviously) MJ-Kirsten Dunst

@thedlsking1628 try reading my story,I didn't thought about it though thease scripts came in my mind instantly when I was reading your comment!

[@venom7558]

I love the idea of having the themes of revenge and forgiveness in Spider-man 3. However,I felt that Venom fit these themes perfectly and that Sandman was not needed. Gwen was also not needed. In my view,the first half of the movie features Harry looking for revenge and Peter getting the black suit. The second half would be Spider-man facing Venom. Being a massive fan of the character,Venom obviously didn't get much development or screen time he deserved. With that being said,I love Spider-man 3. It's a flawed movie,sure,but it's no where near a bad film. In fact,I think it's pretty damn good.

[@Bulletsandblockbusters]

Yeah, I think it just had too many characters and storylines going on. If they kept things simple it would’ve worked.

[@jamestolbert1856]

I believe its about forgiveness, revenge, and vulnerability. He learns to forgive his enemy, Flint Marko, how his need for vengeance and trying to close others out made him into a hollow shell of violence, and to be open to other peoples’ point of view and not just his view

[@Nick64266]

I agree. People often say Venom was unnecessary but I think Sandman and his whole plot wasn’t. I hate the whole Uncle Ben retcon! It ruins the whole first film! Plus who cares about Sandman? I wanted Venom!

RE: Elfman fallout. The fight between Elfman and Raimi was specifically about the fusion reactor demonstration at the beginning. The movie was temp tracked with Chris Young’s music to Hellraiser. Raimi asked Elfman to “get closer” to the temp and Elfman refused, worried it would end up as a legal issue. After Elfman left, Raimi hired Young to do that scene. (Raimi also had John Debney rescore the pizza delivery chase at the beginning and most of the train fight). Elfman has a history of blowing up, considering his fallout with Burton during Batman Returns & Nightmare Before Xmas

[@Bulletsandblockbusters]

Thnx for sharing. I was always curious about the specifics

[@CCEkeke]

I remember that Raimi was going to film Spider Man 4 and 5 back-to-back. Toby Maguire and Kirsten Dunst were both getting big money to come back. Anne Hathaway was supposed to be Felicia Hardy in the film. I forgot who was cast as the Vulture. But when the film all collapsed and Raimi left the project, Maguire and Dunst walked with Raimi leaving. That same day, Sony immediately announced a Spider-Man reboot to premier in 2012.

[@Bulletsandblockbusters]

Yup! I have an entire video on that one

[@iam_747]

John Malkovich as Vulture, this was gonna be the redemption for Spider Man 3 but they couldn't get the script done on time.

[@Chaos-Zakai64]

I've heard in the past that Sam Raimi didn't really like Venom as a character because he didn't see anything redeemable about them. Both Green Goblin and Doc Ock had slight face turns near the end of their movies. Norman saying "Don't tell Harry." and Otto drowning his mini-sun shortly before they died. Another thing that made Venom disappointing in 3 was the constant pealing back the Venom face whenever he talked. I know Sam Raimi is a director who likes seeing his actor's faces but fans came in wanting a scary monster and that's not what we got. Weird because fans were excited at the thought of Venom being treated like an Evil Dead monster. Evil Dead being the series of horror movies Sam Raimi was most known for before working on the Spider-Man films. As for adapting the black suit story, it's difficult to use Venom without telling the black suit saga first. Pretty much forcing Venom into only being in the third act. What I might have done would have the climax of the film take place either at or near the church so Peter could use the church bells to force the symbiote off of him bust out an older beat-up spare suit and finish the fight with whoever. Then in a post-credit scene, we would see the symbiote find Eddie Brock and get a tease of Venom who would then be the main villain of Spider-Man 4.

[@jonathancampbell5231]

Counterpoint- the cartoon told the Black Suit and Venom story almost perfectly in less than one hour of screen time, and it did follow a three act structure with Eddie only turning into Venom in the last 20 minutes. Raimi just didn't "get" the character or use him properly, and to be fair he didn't really fit the story Raimi did want to tell as easily. But it certainly could have been done fairly easily.

[@GenGamesUniverse]

@@jonathancampbell5231 Yep, had Raimi do a cliffhanger, it would have easily have been finished for part one where Brock gets fired from the Bugle after wrongly saying that Lizard was Connors all along, where Connors answers the door, then Brock finds the Venom Symbiote and it leads to him being the host and becoming Venom.

[@Honestlynothingelse]

Wait. Sam raimi actually did the evil dead? Shit

I’d love to see a Spiderman 4 but I think it should have new villains we havnt seen yet; but maybe make some nods to villains he has fought off screen like vulture, lizard ect. And maybe Otto, Connors and Flint are there to help Peter after the events of No Way Home. Also by Connors I don’t mean the one from Amazing Spiderman.

[@dimitrescu182]

I think the Otto, along with the other villains except Flint, that showed up in No Way Home are sent back to a timeline that branched away from the Raimi trilogy and Webb duology.

I was just thinking a couple weeks ago while rewatching, just how backwards it felt that Peter immediately went straight back to his revenge crusade upon learning he got the wrong guy. I didn't used to think much of it because I misremembered it as him already having the symbiote at that point, so it would have made a bit more sense. My immediate thought after seeing that was "Wait wait wait wait. What the hell happened to with great power comes great responsibility?? It's like the boy didn't learn a damn thing from Uncle Ben."

[@daddy_1453]

Raimi should have threatened to walk if there was more studio interference.

[@rockoperajon]

Don’t see how it would have been difficult to split the movie into two parts. Part one could have been the black suit Spidey story with Sandman as the main antagonist, then part 2 could be all about Venom while Peter is trying to reconcile with Harry and Mary Jane. By giving these plot threads more time to be explored, we could’ve gotten two great movies instead of one overstuffed mess (albeit with a few great scenes)

[@El-Silver]

part 2 could have been him going to the church after ripping the symbiote that gives us time for a dream scene we never got

[@MikeOrtego]

I've seen images on line of a black symbiote suit that looked way closer to the comics. Wish we had gotten that!

@@MeltedToast84 😂 that's just sad!

Interesting! Didn’t know that.

[@GenGamesUniverse]

@@Bulletsandblockbusters Same here. I'm kinda glad they didn't kill Gwen Stacy off though, because I felt that it would have been overkill.

[@mottom2657]

I heard that the original plan was different. Bryce's Gwen would be kidnapped by Topher's Venom, and Kirsten's MJ would convince James' Harry to help Tobey's Spidey. But since Bryce was found to be pregnant with a son (her first child, she's married to Seth Gable), Kirsten had to go to the damsel part again. Sam Raimi initially promised Kirsten that she wouldn't have to be a damsel anymore, but due to Bryce's pregnancy, Sam had to break his own word and ask Kirsten for doing the damsel role once again. Sam still doesn't like it.

[@NemesisSP]

Are you sure? Cuz all reports, including from Raimi and Dunst was that MJ being in danger again in the climax was a studio mandate because of time issues and that Dunst was actually thinking to not return to the film if she had to be the rescue victim again. They had already filmed her original role in the ending too, which was to be the person who convinced Harry to help out Peter against Venom and Sandman. On the audio commentary, Raimi is very candid that he had to summon the courage to apologize to Dunst for putting her back in the damsel in distress role she had already gotten tired of playing but had to because of both time constraints and the fact that Howard was pregnant at the time. Now I could believe this story if I had a source, but when looking at what we already have, I don't know where this piece of information is coming from.

[@dshock85]

I remember sitting there in the theatre with a Burger King 'Original Chicken Sandwich' and some BK Chicken Fries trying to convince myself that the movie wasn't shit... but it was no use. And to make matters worse, the next day at school I reached into the front pocket of my nap sack and my hand came out covered in BK buffalo sauce... I must've pocketed an extra packet at the theatre and it exploded in my school bag sometime between the movie and my art class the following morning. And all I could think of while cleaning the mess in my bag was how disappointed I was in that movie.

Vulture was originally the secondary villain in Spider-Man 3. Sandman was always intended to be the main villain for Spider-Man 3. Marvel forced Sam Raimi to replace Vulture with Venom because of fans. The fans have been wanting to see Venom since the first Spider-Man movie came out. Sandman is Sam Raimi's and Tobey Maguire's favorite villain.

There's rumors flying around that there will be a 3rd Garfield film set after the events of No Way Home, where they introduce the sinister six which was teased at the end of TASM2 where they walked into a room filled with stuff like the venom symbiote, a pair of wings (Vulture), mechanical arms (Doc Ock) etc as they are going to Green Goblin's cell. This would be perfect as you could essentially have Mysterio, Kraven the Hunter, The Vulture, Venom, Doc-Ock and Green Goblin create the Sinister Six to combat Spider-Man.

Also as a Venom expert if you want to know, Topher Grace's Venom is more like Ultimate Venom in 616 bagley venom design. Venom was not always big and imposing, different artists drew him and most of the time they did him big. Only thing Spider-Man 3 needed was one more hour if you ask me where we could see a backstory for Eddie Brock.

While this feud between Spiderman and this mini Sinister Six is taking place we would have a few scenes of Black Cat (Felica Hardy) and Spiderman interact with each other while she's robbing a bank or something and she somehow hilariously successfully escapes every time.

To be honest I believe if Sam Raimi just didn't tried to mix his own original idea into the new ideas, and just tried to either balance or do one-another, instead of mixing them all into one mix, the movie could've ended up being way better. It would've ended up just mid possibly, but still way better than what we got. It was at the end of the day still Sam Raimi's decision to keep what he wanted forcibly together this mixed demanded bag. Lets say your mom wants you to eat veggies but you don't like veggies, instead you wanna eat candy. You either deny your mom and eat candies, or just eat the vegetables, you don't... mix them both and put it in your mouth.

The cliffhanger could been the church scene where Peter separates from the symbiote and it attached to Eddy setting up Venom for part 2.

[@DAVISITHO1520]

The cliffhanger shoulve been when eddie turns in to venom. The roar, black screen, credits... I saw this clearly back then when I saw the movie.

[@BobMinelli]

Your TWO-CENTS were "two-cents" well spent. I concur, sir. 🕸🌱

[@jonathancampbell5231]

Venom was a disappointment but Raimi's original ideas didn't seem super compelling either, and it's pretty annoying that he introduced Curt Connors but had zero plans to ever make him The Lizard. Organically, Harry should have been the main villain of Spidey 3, maybe with some supervillain allies, since that's main arc running through the three movies (even if it arguably shouldn't have been), and he should have developed a more sinister scheme than "I'm gonna hit on your girlfriend". Both Raimi and the studio messed up, in different ways.

[@Bulletsandblockbusters]

Agreed

[@unkownuser3851]

I don't know how not making Connors the lizard somehow impacts the qualities of his original ideas. The Osborn plot line was already built up in 2 movies, done well mind you, so it would have been interesting to see on how they develop that given more time. The only thing that isn't so compelling is The New Goblin plans itself.

[@georgeclarke3042]

They should have made Harry the hobgoblin have him wear a hoodie like thing over his mask with the sliver masks shown in the movie that way it could include the hobgoblin.

[@xavierramirez1911]

i feel like the plan was to eventually make dr connors into the lizard in a sequel

[@hotdog2345]

I would love to have the og story for the fourth film and maybe add carnage helping the villains by improving there abilities but also make them more chaotic when they use him

[@drewwilson9149]

Whoa, what you’ve referred to as the “emo Peter” scene is a nearly shot for shot reenactment of a scene from Raimi’s movie with the Coen Brothers Crimewave. I’ve long been confused why no one ever mentions this.

[@Bulletsandblockbusters]

Raimi ripped himself off a lot. The climax to Spider-Man is also very similar to darkman.

[@SlashManEXE]

Making it a two parter would have been ideal. The first part would have still made bank like Spider-Man 3, but would have been a wake up call to the studio to let Raimi be Raimi. It might have also been less bloated and faired a lot better. Still not big on the Sandman retcon, though.

[@nope5657]

Time has been kind to Spider-Man 3. Even though it has some truly silly aspects to it, it feels retroactively refreshing and unique looking back on it now through the lens of where comic book films are today. Give me a million SM3's over most of the past decade of cbm's. I used to think it was some epic dud but rewatching it again after years and years I kept thinking "Wait, why is this supposed to be some legendary failure again?" The Editors Cut, while not some drastic overhaul of the film, is the way to go from now on. It streamlines the narrative and makes it flow a bit better, gives more weight to the symbiote arc, adds a bit more to Sandman, and gives the characters more agency. It takes a flawed, jumbled film and irons out some key wrinkles. I hold out hope for a true, deep reworking of Spider-Man 3 because there are deleted scenes that have yet to see the light of day - more of Peter trying to reach Harry about the truth of his father, more stuff with Sandman, etc. But chances of it happening are virtually zero. For now, I embrace the flawed, but heartfelt and well made version we have now.

[@angelcarballo2161]

Them doing it in 2 parts could've worked they could've have kept Eddy a mystery character being mentioned but not named the first part of the film focuses on Peter fighting off Sandman and Harry, getting the symbionite suit, and his relationship with MJ, after defeating sandman he has a chance to off him but choses not to and gets rid of the symbionite. The film ends with the symbionite finding it's new host Eddy. And in part 2 it's just Spiderman facing venom as the antagonist

[@LorenzoDoesntExist]

They need to release a Special Edition where the Venom CGI's replaced with a huge character model. It wouldn't improve the film narratively in the slightest, but it'd go a long way for fans to get Todd McFarlane's design right.

[@that_damn_kiddo]

It should have just been Venom and no other villain. Don't get me wrong, I love what they did with Sandman, but the fact that the first 2 movies were already Green Goblin and Doc Oc, Venom made the perfect sense. The 3 of them are arguably Spiderman's most famous enemies. It seems like that's the direction the games are going, with Green Goblin being the most likely villain in the next game.

[@mdh16off59]

Venom and lizard should be the villane

Besides SM #4 I'd love to see Raimi direct a trilogy. On the 1979-Nov 1985 Rom Spaceknight series.

[@georgeclarke3042]

It’s mind baffling that Avi would say Sam’s being selfish for using villeins he likes from the comics I argue Doc ock was definitely a villain everyone wanted along with goblin i remember as a kid thinking venom will be next then sandman is revealed I honestly thought he was a made up villain as in just made for the film learned his one of thr classic villains from the 60s.

[@insertcodename1409]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="440">7:20</a> Peter doing the dance down the street is only jarring because the pedestrians walking by have mixed reactions so its kind of confusing, the scene would probably of been more logical in lore if it was either everyone in complete disgust or the opposite and everyone thought he was the coolest guy ever which might've been believable on both considering it was 2007

[@LinusKnight]

2 parter would have worked if the pt 1 cliff hanger was Brock in the church as symbiote edges toward the opening to fall on him (cut to black, symbiote squishy noise) credits - keep first movie sandman, and harry centric with ego peter - intro brock in late act 2 of part 1, wrap up sandman temporarily by act 3 of part 1 and we don’t see sandman again til act 3 of part 2 when both story’s converge - what’s the issue
