Black and White

Just a quick post tonight before I go back to bed (a massive nap got away from me).

Check out this. It's an advance image of the teaser poster for Spider-Man 3, probably the most anticipated comic book movie out there right now. Here's the kicker: it's supposedly a color photo. Rumor is that Spidey will be sporting a version of his famous Black costume.

For anyone who doesn't know, Spidey's black costume (which he found in space-long story, don't ask) turns out to be a somewhat psychotic alien symbiot who tries to get Spidey to kill people and generally go on a rampage. After he ditches it (the symbiot is vunerable to sonic waves), the suit finds another poor sap by the name of Eddie Brock and turns into Venom, who became one of Spidey's deadliest and most popular villians. If Sam Rami is indeed going to do a story with the black costume/Venom, this movie will very likely kick severe ass.

This shot looks great. It's gracing the desktop of my computer right now. The only problem is, it's wrong. Check out this fan art of a classic adaptation of the traditional costume. Now, they both look cool, but come on. There's a reason they call it classic, people!
