Spider-man 3 Villains Revieled!: Wolfman And Venom!
sorry if this has been posted before. if it has close or merge please.
from comingsoon.net:
Hollywood can't seem to get enough of Southern Tier native Tim Phoenix's special effects.
The 1994 Chenango Forks High School graduate has three major contracts under way at the same time: Where the Wild Things Are, due out this year; Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, due in 2006; and Spider-Man 3, due in 2007.
"It's a dream come true," said the 28-year-old Phoenix, who lives in Hollywood. "Life is too short to pass any of these particular projects up, so I will fight and claw to make them happen."
Phoenix said that while he has been kept busy with high-profile movies, he's pleased to be in demand.
"This is all sort of getting so big for me now," he said. "It just must be my time, and that is just the beginning."
In the movie Where the Wild Things Are, Phoenix helped create many of the gigantic creatures. The movie is based on the popular children's book by Maurice Sendak.
For the sequel of the Pirates of the Caribbean, Phoenix and his crew are making 2,500 sculpted, foam latex prosthetics that will later have makeup applied to them. The prosthetics will be used on the "freakish" pirates, Phoenix said.
He's under contract not to talk much about Spider-Man 3, but Phoenix did say that the crew is in the conceptual design process for the villains, who are Man-Wolf and Venom.
"It's super cool stuff and I am in my element here for these particular creations," he said. "I am living in 'the dream' out here. It is just so surreal."
The special effects artist's work was recently seen in Spider-Man 2, where he worked on designing the tentacles for villain Dr. Octopus. He worked on the mechanics behind their movement and helped with on-screen puppeteering.
Phoenix also worked on the mechanical baby and mechanical dog head in the Son of the Mask, which is currently playing at the State Theatre in Deposit.
"It is a very interesting journey so far, and the weird part is that it just keeps escalating," he said. "Every day, I am getting closer and closer to the sources of the most successful people out there, and that makes things all the more real to me."
well it would make sense to do man-wolf and venom but thats alot of story to tell....i'd rather they just do the lizard and GG2....this man-wolf thing smells like a disaster but maybe i'm wrong (i doubt it though)
i'd rather sit through a 5 hour movie and watch them do the story right than sit through a 2 hour movie and see it fall apart. if sam makes this movie good then spider-man will be 1 amazing trilogy!
As an astronaut, John came across a ruby-like gemstone on the moon and wore it as a pendant. Little did he know was that the stone was an alien artifact that grafted to his throat that gave him werewolf like powers whenever the moon was full...The stone has since been removed then later reattached then later, well you get the point!
HOW are they going to do this? I wonder how they could make this work...
And thanks very much for posting and linking that, by the way.
This news is just making me curious about who they got to play Eddie Brock--I'm not worried about CGI work or effects, they'll be great, but how can a story be fabricated featuring 2 previously unseen and unknown characters and woven into what's already happened?
True, but he won't just instantaneously transform--meaning, they may want to spend at least, you know, a few minutes on the actual acquisition of the crystal and the initial transformation. He won't just clutch his throat and spontaneously appear. Plus, there's that space mission he'd have to return from. There are a few things that have to occur for people to understand what's happening. These things will take precious minutes from the film to explain them properly...fair enough?
I get sick of stupid websites that hear the tiniest little rumour and go around stating it as fact. I don't get angry at the people who are easily led by these fake stories because they are very good at making these things seem believable.
Firstly the website doesn't even have a story confirming Man-Wolf or Venom, they simply assume it and, amazingly, believe their own crap.
