Well since Man-Wolf is the subject, I wanna be the first to say he has a chance of popping up in the next Spider-Man movie I think.

Again the writers have set the stage in a way, and John Jameson has appeared.  Gez, so many Spider-Man references in the past 2 movies - almost any villian could appear...but again, I root for my fav. Marvel wolf.

It'd be awesome if Man-Wolf WAS in the next one though. I wonder, how soon does John Jameson turn in the comics? If it happens right away in the comics, maybe it'll happen for the next film!

It didn't happen right away.  Man-Wolf didn't make his first apperance until ASM#124, which is a considerable number of issues AFTER John was rescued in ASM#1.  However, Man-Wolf wasn't a one-shot monster - he made several apperances with Spidey.  There's a fair chance at least.

Arnold Schwarzneggar was supposed to be cast as Eddie Brock (Venom) for Spider-man 3, but due to gubernatorial duties, I've read that they're going to post-pone the Venom story arc until he's available to play the part. I'm not too sure of the credibility of the source, but it seems fairly reasonable since they've hinted that Spider-man 3 will be about Hobgoblin instead of Venom.

Bt I'd really hate that because the ManWolf was, at base, a hero in the comics and every blooming enemy Spiderman has had in the movies has been a "good man" turne bad by their invention.It's getting a bit old.

That's why I liked Carnage in the comics. That mofo was never good.

Actually, the second was just Catwoman and Penguin. The third was Riddler and Two-Face. Fourth was Ivy, Freeze, and Bane. But yeah, the pattern still holds true. It's a shame that Schumacher was brought in to direct 3 and 4... and as far as villains are concerned, if one can't do it, forget about it, ha. Not that I don't enjoy it when they team up...but man, 3 sucky Villains for Batman and Robin. Don't get me wrong, Freeze and Ivy are awesome characters (never got much outta Bane), but I never would have put them together, and I didn't care for the casting or performances at all. I would have gotten Christopher Lloyd for Freeze. When I watch the animated version of Freeze (90's version, not the new Saturday morning one), I always think of Lloyd as Judge Doom in Roger Rabbit. Don't know who I would have gotten for Ivy, but NOT Uma Thurman. I'd have to think about it. Anyway, at least Spider-Man has done two films already with only one villain each. I suspect we'll see two in the next one though, but you never know. But I think they'll think they have to, because Hobgoblin on his own would seem too much like a repeat of the first one (not to me, but I suspect that's how studio execs would think about it). I'm sure it'll be Hobby and someone else...

I agree with your summary S2M and that also demonstrates how good my movi memory is. Chris Lloyd would have been a better Freeze and Bane was not Bane.

Team-ups have often happened in Spider-Man.  In Man-Wolf's case he's been teamed up with Mobis the living vampire and was coerced by Smythe - both cases involving Mannie being inadvertantly pitted against SPidey.

It'd be nice for Spider-Man to face at least one such team-up situation; for SM2 it was a pseudo-team-up between Doc Oc and Harry Osborn...although obviously in the next movie Harry will be playing a far, far more active role safe to say.

Cap Wolf was Captain America on a Werewolf serum. There was, in fact, a town full of Werewolves. I  loaned my copies to a kid and never got them back. Ce la vive.

Ohhhh, I have those CapWolf issues too! Cool if a bit wacky storyline with Captain America as a werewolf and being the leader of Marvel werewolves.

My favorite part is where Wolverine sees CapWolf for the first time and tells Cap that he should keep that new look.

Blue as the Mad Scientist:"But Red, you're already a werefox so why you want to be a werewolf too?

RedStreak:"JUST DO IT!"

Blue:"Lucky that I'm not selling shoes..."

(Blue gives Red the formula. Red screams and break out of the straps. Red gets bigger)

Blue:"Oh dear ***! What I have done? Did I create a monster?"

(Red gets hairier, his tail and snout gets longer, gets more teeth until he looks.....a blue-furred copy of Blue!!)

Blue:"Whayaknow? You never looked so handsome! But there's something missing...oh yes."

(Puts glasses on BlueStreak)

BlueEyes:"Perfect! I always wanted to have a son so BlueSteak...I'm your father now!"

BlueStreak(screams) :"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

(bows to the applause)

Thank you, thank you, don't forget to tip the beer lady.
