Spiderman Car Cell Phone Holder: Love It or Leave It?

GeekSugar — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 15:42:21 -0700

If you're one of the good people in California, like Seal, who has sworn off using their cell phone while driving because of the new law, then maybe you will appreciate this car cell phone holder. Oh, and you love Spiderman? You're all set.

Whether you hit up a Bluetooth device or a headset, it would be great to have something like this to hold your phone secure while you cruise and gab. But, I'm not four years old, alas, so I have to leave this product (but love the idea). What do you think?

Take Photos Like You're Spiderman - or Tobey Maguire

GeekSugar — Fri, 29 Dec 2006 15:38:05 -0800

Ever wonder about all the fun camera angles you could capture on film if you were Spiderman - or at least Tobey Maguire? Then you probably need a MonsterPod, a new camera "tripod" that can stick to any surface and hang, with the help of its “patent pending viscoelastic morphing polymer Super Grip.”

Its maker says it's "not a tripod, a monopod, or hovering robot. It's MonsterPod, the gravity defying tripod that holds your digital camera motionless, vertically, horizontally or upside down!"

For more information, just read more

It uses a threaded screw to attach to almost any point-and-shoot camera and costs $29.99 at MonsterPod. MonsterPod will hold only cameras weighing up to 10 ounces.

Which Actress Should Play The Black Cat in Spider-Man 4?

BuzzSugar — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:30:05 -0800

The rumor mill keeps churning about Spider-Man 4. Let's recap: First, word spread that Rachel McAdams would be playing new villain Felicia Hardy, aka The Black Cat in the fourquel - hearsay which McAdams later denied. Earlier this week Julia Stiles's name started floating around instead. And now Anne Hathaway is the latest to be added to the running.

Hathaway and Spidey seem like a solid pairing - she'll up the A-list wattage of the film, and I think a superhero blockbuster would be a nice addition to her resume. But what about Stiles? She's been in the Jason Bourne series, so she does have the experience of working on a mega franchise. Still, I just can't imagine her busting chops and throwing around kicks like Hathaway.

Neither actress is even confirmed yet, which means other ladies could still step into the roles! Let's discuss who you would like to see take on The Black Cat part -Stiles, Hathaway, or do you have another actress that you would cast?

Get in Gear: Brooks "Spiderman" Running Socks

FitSugar — Mon, 30 Apr 2007 15:45:00 -0700

Looking for something to wear to the opening of Spider-Man 3 this Friday? Or maybe you are participating in some of the events for Spider-Man Week in NYC and you don't want your feet to overheat? Well in either case, I have found the socks for you.

The HVAC Racer by Brooks might just be the most engineered sock on the planet. Plus it looks like it is straight out of the wardrobe from the movie. Designed for racing, it is lightweight and thermally balanced for comfort. This sock is made out of revolutionary X-Static® fiber that contains antimicrobial silver (how techno is that) which moves heat away from the foot while eliminating 99.9% of bacteria. I am thinking that these socks will make for less stinky feet too. They are also anatomically designed so there is a right and a left sock. I told you a lot of thought went into these site.

Buy them from Brooks directly for $18. Hope they help your spidey skills.

Can You See Rachel McAdams as a Villain?

BuzzSugar — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 12:30:23 -0800

I've been waiting for some kind of casting update on Spider-Man 4 for a while now, and this week rumors are flying about the franchise's newest bad guys. There have been whispers that the next film may feature two villains (male and female), and that Rachel McAdams is in talks to play Felicia Hardy, aka The Black Cat.

Nothing has been confirmed yet, but I like the sound of this news; I'm a big fan of McAdams and I think she's too often pigeonholed into playing the nice girl (except for Regina George, obviously). What do you think - can you see McAdams as a villain, or do that big smile and dimples belong somewhere else (like on a new love interest for Peter Parker)?

Tobey May Be Waving Bye-Bye To Spider-Man

PopSugar — Mon, 16 Apr 2007 10:03:03 -0700

The stars of Spider-Man 3 got their very first look at their much anticipated sequel in Tokyo last night. Yummy James Franco looked marvelous and Tobey looked dapper while Kirsten looked sweet yet kinda like she's trying to hide something in all those pink layers. Based on the record-breaking success of the first two Spiderman flicks, we're willing to bet that the latest installment won't disappoint at the box office. However, big bucks won't be enough to get Tobey to reprise his role as Spidey. Here's more:

"I feel like this film is kind of a natural conclusion to a lot of stuff that's happened in the first two movies," Maguire said.

"It kind of feels like a natural trilogy," the 31-year-old actor said, adding that he's open to donning the Spider-Man suit again "if a story presents itself, if we come up with something we feel deserves to be told."

"I'm not going to make them just because they've been successful," Maguire said.

We've heard this before and it's completely understandable and respectable that Tobey may just want to quit while the Spider-man franchise is still ahead however he plays a fabulous Peter Parker.

Kirsten: Spider-Man 3 May Be Her Last

PopSugar — Thu, 19 Oct 2006 09:25:37 -0700

Kirsten has had a healthy career from a child actor kissing Brad Pitt to super hero heart throb being rescued by Spider-Man. We think Kiki is underrated since most of you are not fans but we love her as Mary Jane. Hopefully there will be more Spider-Man movies but she is making us think this 3rd installment may be the last. Say it isn't so. Here's more:

Asked if the upcoming "Spider-Man 3" will be the final installment in the series, Dunst told UPI: "We're not sure. It might be, might not be."

She said "Spider-Man" has been such an important part of her life for so long, she would greatly miss her character and co-workers if "3" was to be the finale.

"It feels a little bit like a death, in a way," she said. "It's always been like something I have that's coming up. ... It's weird that that's not going to -- maybe, maybe -- won't be part of my life anymore."

Here are pics of her carrying her Chanel 2.55 bag and being followed around by paps at the zoo. For more pics of Kirsten being photographed from bushes and rocks just read more

Tobey Gives Spider-Man 3 Two Thumbs Up

PopSugar — Thu, 01 Mar 2007 14:21:16 -0800

Spider-Man 3 isn't coming out until May but the boys are already busy promoting it. Tobey, James Franco and producer Avi Arad held a press conference in Toyko to talk all about the highly-anticipated third film. The boys had lots of fun joking around with each other and the reporters. When Tobey was asked what he did to prepare for his role he said "[I] just wanted to make sure I was looking really sexy." Of course, Tobey had some serious stuff to say about the webbed crusader and his dorky yet lovable counterpart as well. Here's more: (SPOILER ALERT, but probably not anything you don't know anyway)

"I do like Peter very much, he's become a big part of my life. The 'Spider-Man' world has become a big part of my life. I'm very fond of the world and the team of people that it takes to put the movies together. I've had such a good time so far on this ride. I just love my experiences and I love the world and the character."

"In terms of what's happening with Peter in this film, he goes into the film a little differently in that he's still Peter Parker and, except for his relationship with Harry Osborn, everything is his life is going very well. He's feeling that confidence, the public is adoring him and he's feeling that and letting it get to his head and he gets a little arrogant and cocky and it starts to get him into trouble. It really is funny behavior for Peter."

This doesn't sound like a man who's thinking about quitting the franchise. Hopefully his love for Spider-Man will convince him to continue donning his spidey suit in many more films to come!

Is Spider-Man 3 the Last One?

PopSugar — Fri, 15 Dec 2006 14:40:07 -0800

We have not even done our best of 2006 lists and already we are reading about the must see movies in 2007. Premiere Magazine has us looking forward to next year - especially Spider-Man 3. Unfortunately, we are already hearing more about the possibility that this may be the last installment in this series. Kirsten already leaked that they may be finished and now Tobey is eluding to the same thing. The physical demands of Spider-man is one thing but now Tobey's a dad so the stunts and time away from his daughter may not be worth it anymore. Besides, he thinks number three is a good place to end the franchise. Here's more:

He says, "This might be a good place to stop - I am not tied contractually to any more Spider-Man movies. I am not completely closed to the idea of another one if it made sense but I would say the odds were in favour of this being the last one." Last month (OCT06) Maguire's co-star and onscreen love interest KIRSTEN DUNST hinted she's keen to ditch the movies too and take up art instead. She said, "I'm not the type of actress who does movie after movie."

Boo! We love Spidey and will be sorry to see it go. Still it makes sense to leave it as a trilogy. At least until the next trilogy! There's more about the film in this great article in Premiere Magazine. To check it out just read more

Spiderman 3 at Comic-Con

PopSugar — Mon, 24 Jul 2006 12:48:35 -0700

Spiderman 3 isn't due out until summer 2007, but some lucky fans got a sneak peak this weekend at the Comic-Con comic book convention in San Diego (remember the comic book convention in Entourage last season... same thing). Will this be the last Spiderman movie? Fans are hoping not, but they'll just have to wait and see. Here's more from Kirsten, Tobey and the rest of the cast on the third film:

"There will be some conclusions, though I wouldn't say it's necessarily the end," said Maguire, whose words were nearly drowned out by thunderous applause. "We're going to leave it open-ended. If there are stories worth telling, then we'll tell them."

The brief teaser footage blended live-action scenes with animation and computer graphics. It showed Sandman, a new villain played by Church, and offered a quick glimpse of Venom (Grace), Peter Parker's spider-like nemesis.

"He's more of a doppelganger to Peter," Grace told the crowd. "It's kind of a case study in if someone very similar to Peter got the same powers but didn't have a good upbringing."

As the director of all three "Spider-Man" films, Raimi has been immersed in Spidey's world for more than six years. A longtime fan of the comic books, Raimi said it's been a "super-dream" to make the movies, but also a "great responsibility to tell the story of this character that kids look up to as this great hero."

"Certainly you don't want to make anything that isn't worthy of their admiration," he said.

Based on early reaction at Comic-Con, Raimi has nothing to worry about. He delivered what fans wanted: Venom.
