More From Michael Papajohn On His Return For "Spider Man 4"

A scooper over at superherohype had a little chat with the actor over the weekend...
Here's what was sent to superherohype by "Wolf"...

"was over at the weekly comic book show Frank & Son over in Industry, CA, and while I was walking around with my uncle we suddenly ran into Michael Papajohn. I wouldn't have noticed him except for the pictures he had all over his signing desk. He's a real funny guy - trying to sell us autographs and telling us about how the Lakers beat him out of the main table. Anyways, I asked him about Spider Man 4 because of the rumor I read that he was going to be in it. He said "I can't talk about it, but who says I died in the first one?" My uncle asked him again and he quipped "if I tell you I'll have to shoot you." Jokingly, of course. That's all I got."

So it wont be flashbacks, dreams or time travel! The pesky car jacker isn't dead after all. So will he return as himself in a sub plot to try to get revenge on Spidey? Or will he be..altered! My guess is they are going to make this guy Rhino.

1st BitchaZZ!!!! ;P

Does anyone else hate lookin at this guys face or is it just me? and his voice is like biting on aluminum foil.
shibazz - 6/28/2009, 10:21 AM
lol

shibazz you a fool


anyway,i dont know why they'd waste that much money to cast rhino as a charater that would most likely look like a video game panda anyways....

i could see him as carnage or shocker though...even if it doesn't go by comiccode.
captain0vell - 6/28/2009, 10:23 AM
lol yeah i made fun of his voice ever since i first heard it in like....2000?
captain0vell - 6/28/2009, 10:24 AM
I really don't think he's gonna be any Supervillain??? An god not CARNAGE! Nooooo! Leave CARNAGE for THE VENOM spin off! CARNAGE will have no justice in a spidey flick! ; D

Lol SHIB @ he does have that face!

Anyways its a flashback or just a rumor he's actually in it!
LEEE777 - 6/28/2009, 10:32 AM
The reason i think Rhino is that Flint Marko and the guy that becomes Rhino(cant remember his name) are shown to be partners in the cartoons and some comics i think..id say he will just be a secondary villain. But Shocker is also a good guess..
Rorschach01 - 6/28/2009, 10:34 AM
More like the bailifs are knocking he is hoping his character didnt die
teabag - 6/28/2009, 10:42 AM
I can see him as Rhino as well and is it just me or are they making the comic book spiderman just like the movie because I notice in a spiderman comic his house is just like the one in the first spiderman movie
Supermike - 6/28/2009, 10:58 AM
rhino would be cool for a secondary villain, but shocker and scorpion are favorites of mine. i'd rather see both go up against spidey. that'll be sweet.
droopy1317 - 6/28/2009, 11:16 AM
could he become the scorpian? he kinda looks like mac garden aka the scorpian and it would be the perfect timeing for J.J. Jameson to get his revenge on spiderman by creating the scorpian but i stil say the main bad guys should be kraven the hunter and the lizard
powerdk - 6/28/2009, 11:30 AM
Isnt thr Rhino russian??
teabag - 6/28/2009, 11:31 AM
I Think this Guy would be perfect for The Scorpion.
He Looks Like the guy who becomes scorpion.
JRay420 - 6/28/2009, 11:36 AM
Again wasnt the Scorpion a private investigater or something like that, who was hired to spy on peter to find out how he gets the spidey pics??? now i knwo they take liberties but making this guy scorpion or rhino would just be the biggest pile of web fluid....i like the spidey movies and can enjoy parts of 3 but if they do this im not sure i wanna see it
teabag - 6/28/2009, 11:43 AM
No, as far as i know Rhino New Yoika! He prob wont be a super villain..but at the same time i cant see any other reason for bringing him back either
Rorschach01 - 6/28/2009, 11:57 AM
he definitely seems capable of being rhino...but scorpion or electro can be options too...i dont know why they cant stick to the lizard storyline with kraven joining the melee, but i hope if they do add on villains it will be a secondary subplot...cuz as we saw in spiderman 3..you just cant put in too many villains into your main plotline!!
Anil Rickly - 6/28/2009, 12:26 PM
aha.....to quote marvel bio..The Rhino.."Aleksei Sytsevich was just another thug in the Russian Mafia.."....thought he was russian...anyway my point is there is no point and i dont think he will be back either
teabag - 6/28/2009, 12:27 PM
The Scorpion looks more like it to me.
starscream4president - 6/28/2009, 12:42 PM
He cant be either damit....whats next Chill comes back in batman 3 as the penguin!!!
teabag - 6/28/2009, 12:55 PM
The guy does have that RHINO face about him lol! ; )
LEEE777 - 6/28/2009, 1:53 PM
I honestly doubt that this guy would come back as a supervillian.
Bandrews1 - 6/28/2009, 2:08 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO he doesnt LEEE godamit next you will want Lewis for the kingpin ;P
teabag - 6/28/2009, 2:49 PM
Scorpion for sure

All ties in well
Imran - 6/28/2009, 2:57 PM
They shouldnt bring this guy back as a supervillain! He's not Electro (Max Dillon is) he's not Scorpion (MacGargan is) and he isnt any of the other damn Spider-Man villains! Why cant they just move on from this boring storyline???
joshw24 - 6/28/2009, 4:15 PM
Thank you Joshw.....dam im worried that people are starting to except these idiotic ideas
teabag - 6/28/2009, 4:24 PM
I know teabag - its nuts!!! Uncle Ben's killer as the [frick]ing Rhino!?! They had a pointless flashback of Uncle Ben in Spider-Man 2, the that idiotic Sandman as the killer story in Spider-Man 3 now they're still dragging it out! If Raimi mucks this one up then its time for a NEW director!
joshw24 - 6/28/2009, 4:42 PM
Exactly...no excuse for this as a plot line......the spiderman villains are something i really care about because they were a big part of my childhood....i want too bothered about the whole venom thing cus he isnt one of the classics. Screw this up sam and i will have to cry and rock myself into insanity in the corner of the room clenching my old spidey comics and evil dead dvd's
teabag - 6/28/2009, 4:49 PM
Same here man! I grew up watching the 90's Spider-Man Animated Series and 7 or 8 years ago I started reading the US comic books! Nowadays I read pretty much all of the Marvel comic books but Spider-Man is still the most important character to me so to see them ruined as they were in Spider-Man 3 drives me nuts! Venom bothered me a lot as it was a video that I was given featuring his episodes of from the animated series' that got me hooked on all things Spidey! Raimi screws up 4 and I may just travel to the states and force him to watch the awful Fantastic Four movie over and over until he goes insane...
joshw24 - 6/28/2009, 4:58 PM
plz,plz,plz don`t let him be any of the spidey villians. He is not them! I agree, they are dragging this on too long

woo hoo!
jallanr - 6/28/2009, 5:11 PM
It was the 80's cartoons for me so no venom......i started collecting the 60's and 70's issues about the same time so the classic villains stick with me. The 90's series was prob the best animated attemp tho...
Oh and if he screws up 4 il make him sniff the sweaty cruch of Billy Zane's Phantom costume
teabag - 6/28/2009, 5:13 PM
honestly have we seen anything else that this holme-skillet has been in? Oh god i literally just hit me... 2 hours of hoping he doesnt get a scene.... i cant do it! i just dont have the will power for that!
shibazz - 6/28/2009, 5:37 PM
haha, he was actually in Terminator Salvation and Transformers 2! Apparently he gets bit parts in lots of movies because hes such a cool guy, but yeah, i dont really want to see him play a major part in the next movie

Also, his name makes me hungry. Do u guys have Papajohns pizza over there? MMmmmmmmm
Rorschach01 - 6/28/2009, 5:52 PM
I think i saw him in my bins once
teabag - 6/28/2009, 5:52 PM
well this guy could be a villian in the next one, he's never had a name and i agree Ror on the whole Flint and him thing from the cartoons
lilej2 - 6/28/2009, 6:03 PM
I swear im gonna cry
teabag - 6/28/2009, 6:09 PM
I saw The Scorpion will fit him better. COME ON!
LuV1138 - 6/28/2009, 8:41 PM
HE CAN'T BE SCORPION! His name is not Mac Gargan is it? NO!!! Mac Gargan aka The Scorpion was a private investigator who is hired by JJJ to investigate Spider-man in order to find out his true identity. This guy can not be The Scorpion. Rhino (Aleksei Sytsevich) maybe, Shocker (Herman Schultz) even yeah maybe. Gargan is a big character and doubt they would take this guy to replace him as Scorpion. That is way to much of a creative liberty.

Not Carnage aka Cletus Kasady either, it just wouldnt add up. Only way that is possible is if he acts as some kind of vessel that the symbiote of venom attaches to and is displease with. Once he reaches jail it clings to Cletus instead. This would replace that whole Eddie Brock meeting Cletus storyline and still make it work

We can also rule out the Vulture as well if anyone happens to bring that up he's not old enough.

So who else could it be....

-The Spot
-Beetle
-Chameleon
-Electro (doubt it)
-Overdrive....hmm




VenomIsOnMyRibs - 6/28/2009, 9:59 PM
just my thought, maybe just a flashback connecting him with the big time mobster from new york, as one of the thugs...Wilson Fisk aka the KINGPIN!
it that's the case, i wonder who would play the kingpin?
sadmamba - 6/28/2009, 10:17 PM
My vote for the KingPin is.... Kevins Mom!

That's a biiiiiiiig bit#ch!!!
shibazz - 6/28/2009, 10:32 PM
come on that guy was a glorified extra... hes not going to have any significant role, be realistic. I think seeing the rhino battle spidey in live action would be amazing but it wont be this random guy.. raimi kept talking about the story of peter parker... so its jsut going to be peter coming to terms with his uncles death.. again
fotc - 6/28/2009, 11:52 PM
btw why is everyone expecting him to be a villain?
fotc - 6/28/2009, 11:54 PM
This is stupid. I can't believe they think this would be a good idea. Geez
TeenIdol - 6/28/2009, 11:57 PM
Yeah def saw him in my bins
teabag - 6/29/2009, 12:44 AM
Thinking about sending a song in for the musical....im hoping it will bring out the pashion and despair peter suffers in choosing between gwen and MJ.....heres a a lil taste....

MARY JAAANE,
WHY IS IT IN THE MOVIES DO YOU ALWAYS COMPLAIN,

IT ALL WENT SOUTH BOTH TITS AND AASSS

GWEN STACEEEY
MAN I THINK YOUR RACEY
ITS GREAT YOU WERENT KILLED BY THE GOBLIN
CUS MY MANHOOD IS A THROBBIN

Andrew Loyd Webber can eat my doo doo
teabag - 6/29/2009, 1:13 AM
hey wait isnt carnge a blond that kinda looks like him maybe they want to make him carnage or mystrio
greenlanter13 - 6/29/2009, 1:47 AM
Cletus Kasady is ginger so i say Jason Lewis for him
teabag - 6/29/2009, 1:55 AM
lol rorshach, his name does make me hungry. popajohns lol

woo hoo!
jallanr - 6/29/2009, 4:59 AM
So he's the one who puts the [frick]ing leaflets through my door........BASTARD
teabag - 6/29/2009, 5:20 AM
[frick] i hate Papajohn!!! I remember thinking he was the ONLY thing i hated in the first Spidey. It doesn't matter which role he gets, i always hate him in it!!! There's just something about his face and that's not mentionning his voice!!! I'd take Bale's raspy Batvoice any day of my life over this guy's pipe squeeze!!! And aside from Venom, the worst possible thing about SM3 was how they [frick]ed over Ben's death. And now they wanna do more damage??? This is pathetic!!! Raimi's sure as hell isin't getting my hard earned money!!!
Shaman - 6/29/2009, 7:45 AM
i earn my money hard aswell
teabag - 6/29/2009, 8:04 AM
What i find hard to understand is people saying "yeah he could be Electro or it would work for him to be Rhino"................do we not care about this anymore? are we so used to being rimmed by the movies that we alloy ourselves to take stupid ideas, which have no relevance to the scourse material!!! AAAAAGGHHHHHHHH
teabag - 6/29/2009, 8:15 AM
Seriously. When did all cbmfans start to bend over??? I can't believe i missed that opportunity!!! :P
Shaman - 6/29/2009, 8:27 AM
looks like a good set up for Scorpion......
TheJester - 6/29/2009, 8:31 AM
Looks like a good set up for my penis.....
Shaman - 6/29/2009, 9:10 AM
Uh oh,,, supermike agree's with me!

My bad, i take it back!

NO for RHINO!!! : D

An JASON LEWIS for CAP! ; )
LEEE777 - 6/29/2009, 9:17 AM
Just a thought-I think that SCORPION will be in Spider-Man 4! JJJ hired Gargan to find out Spider-Mans secret identity and maybe visiting jail to talk with this guy will be a scene in the movie!?! That would be a [frick]ing awesome storyline!!!!
joshw24 - 6/29/2009, 9:20 AM
Jester you better be keeping to your name man or il keep to mine on ya
teabag - 6/29/2009, 9:57 AM
so the carjacker from the first film shows up again, probably turned into one of the villains? I hope not. We already had that asinine sob-fest with the Sandman inferring that HE had a role in Uncle Ben's death, which is some of the biggest crap I ever heard. IF that's the kind of garbage that infests this film, I'll save two good hours of my life by not watching that filth.


comicb00kguy - 6/29/2009, 11:27 AM
Didn't I just explain why he can't be Carnage, Mysterio, or the Scorpion? Now people are just regurgitating the same crap over and over. If you know Spidey history you'd know why he can't be any of these big characters.

The Kigpin thing is a good idea though, that never even came to mind.

Then again he could just be playing up his role to much because Papajohn's head is full of...pizza? (PUN)

Most likely he will be a shitty character linking to the BIG character.

ONCE AGAIN HE'S NOT SCORPION/CARNAGE/MYSTERIO! I refuse to believe that dammit.
VenomIsOnMyRibs - 6/29/2009, 9:31 PM
You guys need to do some more reading up on Mysterio. There is a very strong link between Uncle Ben's killer and Mysterio.
Macksimus - 6/29/2009, 10:59 PM
WTF? that Kevins moms joke was a killer! what ever .... still though at all you and SHAMAN ... just say CACK.... penis is too polite for its intention. i know i w0uld feel much more comfortable.
shibazz - 6/30/2009, 1:28 AM
I get it......LOL
teabag - 6/30/2009, 2:56 AM
Never thought i'd see the day where Shibazz'd be comfortable with my cack.
Shaman - 6/30/2009, 6:24 AM
Papajohn's head full of pizza? Nice pun.
comicb00kguy - 6/30/2009, 7:34 AM
Yes it was lazy but the commercial for Papajohn's pizza came on as I was typing that, so its there now. I'm aware is is the opposite of hilarious, its there for my pleasure not yours.
VenomIsOnMyRibs - 6/30/2009, 11:07 AM
I hope Papajohn is The Chameleon

Next to Kraven, Rhino is the lamest villian of all the Spidey villians.
SpideyFan1982 - 7/11/2009, 4:14 AM
I disagree spideyfan in the 80's kraven was bad ass buried spidey alive and the art was amazing and the story was fantastic it was back in the black suit after the symboit they've just down played him over the last 20 years back then he was awesomew
