Guess it’s not so wacky anymore G4

In news broken to Comingsoon.net and CBR, John Malkovich, famous for getting inside his own head in “Being John Malkovich”, will don the green feathers and play The Vulture in the upcoming Spider-Man 4!

My thoughts behind the cut:

I can’t say I’m surprised, since the studio getting too involved caused the third film to be completely lackluster, despite it’s success. What I am disappointed in is that the folks at Sony don’t really seem to know much about comics. There are many “viable options” and there has been a thread running throughout all the movies. And that thread is Dr. Curt Connors. It would be really cool to see The Lizard running amok throughout the city of New York, and it would be even cooler to see Spidey caught in between Lizard and Kraven.

But what do I know? I’m not investing millions of dollars into such a large franchise. But I DO know Spider-Man 3 sucked because of too many cooks in the kitchen.

Gilbert Short. The Man. The Myth. The Legend. When he's not reading comic books so you don't have to, he's likely listening to mediocre music or watching excellent television. Passionate about Giants baseball and 49ers football. When he was a kid he wanted to be The Ultimate Warrior. He still kind of does. His favorite character is Superman and he will argue with you about it if you try to convince him otherwise. He also happens to be the head of Social Media Relations, which means you should totally give him a follow onTwitter.
