Finally, The Official Off-Topic Thread

Thank you Shin. 🙂

No worries Spidey Sis hope you enjoy it.

I really like the Electro angle making him Petes age instead of some guy with a grudge.

I had an idea for how electro could get his powers in the film but I forgot 😂

Thanks the problem I had with the original Stan Lee/Steve Ditko is that some of the villains like Electro, Sandman and The Vulture had no motivation or any really background to make them turn to evil so when I write Spidey I try to make the villain`s turn to evil quite believable instead of just the old I want to rule the world and I need money angle.

I like the rule the world angle. 🙁

Don't be sad friend. 🙂

You don't get the traditional old ways villains anymore, it used to be deadly laser beams, moon bases and the like, now they have all gone techno using viruses and just destroying the planet, I tell you villains like Wily would be turning in the grave....😛

I am not saying I hate that angle Neo I am just saying it gets old quick and when I write villains for what ever I am doing I write them with rich backgrounds, motivation and intention for going to evil like for example with Vulture when he first appeared in the Spider-Man comics just an old guy making robberies. But when I wrote him I made a guy who worked for Oscorp, an intelligent man who also happen to be a war veratrain and this driven him to seek fame and fortune because he felt he deserves it and then he looks at Spider-Man and envies what he gets and tries to go around going against that but the more he tries the more he gets hates so what you have is this very vicious cycle and a reiviention of a simple character turning into a villain.

No I understand I just wanted to talk about the old villains.

I don't blame you, Shin.

The whole "rule the world" angle gets extremely boring and predictable since it's constantly being used in cartoons, video games, and movies.

Yeh true Yoshi glad someone agrees with me so how are you today my friend?

Favoritism 😛

I like the old angle, but I like complex tradgic villains as well, one of the reasons Bowser works so well is because of this.

Cool and then you have villains like The Joker who`s motivations you don`t really know and its hard to understand their psychology so thats what makes them or the more amazing and terrifying and villains.

It's the fear of unpredictability.

So true in my view Joker is one of the funniest villains to write ever for a Batman script. 😎

He is a good villain to write about.

Yeh I have a long post somewhere in the Comic Book forum on why he`s my comic book favorite villain lol.

I saw that lol.
