New info on villains of Spider-man 3

[elvis800]

Hi,
I was on the IGN Spider-man message boards and I saw a thread with a guy talking about how he read in a magazine that the villains will be Hobgoblin (not gg), Lizard, and Man-wolf.
Then I saw another post that had a link to an interview with Sam Raimi where Sam said that Harry might not turn into the GG at all.
I have to say, I'm a little confused. Does anyone know if there is any truth to these claims.

The following is a link that goes to the post about the hg, lizard and man-wolf which has a link to a different post which has a link to the Sam Raimi interview. You get the point, follow the yellow brick road.

WOAH..............we're not sure of anything.....I DO KNOW cause I posted it that SAM IS DONE Writting the story for the 3..it might even have 2 or three villians- which I heard this part from another site also..... just look under Sam one.

Wasn't Wolf-man a really small character. I'm not sure.
It seems like it would be a real <searching for word> goofy thing if they put Man-wolf in, even as a secondary villain. C'mon a werewolf, who needs another one of those?

Yeah, Man-Wolf was stupid. If they picked him, would they really say that he got that way by a magic moon rock? If not, then is there any way to use him and not look silly. I mean, how many good werewolf movies r there? Honestly, I doubt that they would use him, and I also doubt them using the hobgoblin as Harry's alter psyche, cuz it would piss off too many fans, and didn't Sam say he made these films for the true Spider-man fans?

He barely even started the story yet! He just said the other day he's working with his brother and some other guy on the direction of the story for part 3.

Raimi has finished the overall story, not the details.

BBC - "You're currently at work on the script for Spider-Man 3..."

Raimi - "I just finished this morning [Monday 12th July] - I mean the basic story. I'd been working on it with my brother."

I hope it's the Hob Goblin or Lizard, or why not both.....lol

Have you guys thought about it? If they do Lizard (which I'm up for) and Harry, that'll be 4 villains in a row that Peter had to fight that he either respected or were friends with. At the end of SP1, it was that feeling of "Why did Norman have to be the Goblin?!" Especially like during the movie when Norman was trying to help Peter get a job and saying that he would be there for him when Uncle Ben died. Same feeling for Octavius. Also when it was a case where he had to fight them even though it wasn't their fault (the accidents).

Guess a free-for-all definitely works this time around.
jeez.. talk about insanity!
Hope they clear this up soon.
