The Green Goblin Movie Mask That Might Have Been [Video]

I like it and I also like that it would have allowed for Goblin's overall costume to be closer to the comics and have both colors going for it. As for why Osborn would wear such a thing there's a couple of ways you could have gone with that. It could have been written more as a literal transformation resulting from the formula (though that would be playing close to the Hulk) or really just play it the way the comics do. When it's off it's a mask, when it's on it's his face.

Some may cry foul over "realism" but consider this: They're already fudging it with acting as though Peter's mask just pulls on and off easily with no visible separation on the neck line even though in reality the mask it attached to the neck of the suit and it takes a team of people to get Tobey the hell out of it.

It looks terrible in stills, but it's actually pretty amazing when you see it in action - this is pretty much exactly what I picture in my head when I'm reading the comics.

I think both look pretty goofy. The rejected design looks like something a kid could get at a Halloween store.
Couldn't the costume designers have created a mask that meshes with his face, so the mouth moves when Osborn talks?

Maybe it was too difficult to make it work. Some green face paint, cool goggles and a long purple cap could have worked too. I never got why they went with the elongated head instead of a hood/cap thing that could wave dramatically in the wind as he glided around.

On one hand, that mask looks awesome. On the other hand, I can't really see what logic would compel Osborn to wear it.

That actually looks menacing. I wouldn't have even questioned it. Movie Goblin was obsessed with masks, he could have just had this lying around his study.

Are you kidding me? That's just as cheesy, that looks like that mask from Goosebumps.

Why didnt they use this? ._.

it looks awesome and really creepy

I think that Alex Ross design looks pretty cool, the movie Goblin was just terrible.
It never made sense to me that the mask was was a part of his military prototype suit; It seems to me that Osborn would probably have to make the mask himself.
I dunno, as much as I love the Green Goblin, I think he was a really difficult character to adapt to the screen in his classic design. That is not of course to say that I'd prefer his Ultimate incarnation, I actually friggin' hate that design.

This is so much better, wish they had went with it.
