I admit it's not what I think Kurt Connors should be. But we all need to take off our hipster googles and accept the movies, cartoons, and video games will always be different from the comics.

Ummm.... but why? I don't have hipster goggles, and I hate this Lizard design. I hate this Spider-Man costume. What was wrong with the traditional costume? If they are THAT badly trying to get away from the Raimi flicks, why not subtly change the costume, and use the Ben Reilly Spider-Man costume (huge black spider on front and back)... This costume just looks horrible.

As for the lizard, with the quality and accessibility of CGI now, you can't tell me that's the best face they could come up with for The Lizard... Really? I'd rather watch Land of the Lost. There is no menace there. Blunt teeth? no scales? Looks like a freakshow with full body tattoos, rather than a powerful human/reptile hybrid.

So far, the ONLY character in any of the Spider-Man movies that they stayed true to is the least liked among fans, and that was Venom... His story, mannerisms, and look had VERY little change, and yet still the fans whine.

I don't like any of the designs, and I don't like the script either. Sadly, it reads too much like the recent (2000+) attempts to add MORE drama to Spider-Man rather than make him an enjoyable hero that deals with angst via quips and witticisms, rather than brooding and whining.
