The Amazing Spider-Man Set Pictures, Videos and News Thread - Part 10

[Pac-Master]

I'm excited for TDKR, but not it's teaser. The teaser will probably be similar to the TDK teaser & that thing sucked IMO. The ASM trailer will probably blow TDKR's teaser out of the water, since there'll actually be some footage. Though, TDKR's trailer on the other hand....
The TDKR teaser is 1:33, and ASM's teaser is 1:40. The TDK teaser was :59. I think the TDKR teaser will include footage. It's too long not to have any. Same with ASM's.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ I hope we get a good maount of footage from the SPidey trailer. Anything like the S-M3 teaser and I'm happy.

[Mako]

^^ I hope we get a good maount of footage from the SPidey trailer. Anything like the S-M3 teaser and I'm happy.

You mean the one with Symbiote Spidey on the chruch ? If so I'd love something like that as far as footage goes.

[RedIsNotBlue]

The TDKR teaser is 1:33, and ASM's teaser is 1:40. The TDK teaser was :59. I think the TDKR teaser will include footage. It's too long not to have any. Same with ASM's.

While I think the teaser for TDK was short and effective I seriously doubt they were going to repeat that style so yeah I am expecting at least some kind of footage with Bale as Batman.

Any preview for any Spider-Man movie should have at least one shot of Spidey in action period.

[EliteF50]

I'm a little late, is a trailer confirmed? And if so, with that movie?

[Spiderman6592]

I'd say there's about a 99% chance that it premiers with Captain America. It's been confirmed that a trailer is coming in July and that's about all we know as of now.

[RedIsNotBlue]

I think Sony really wanted it with Transformers 3 but couldn't put it together in time. So yeah it being attached to Captain America makes sense.

[Gamma Goliath]

Ill be glad if this teaser is with CA : tfa, I'm so tired of going to see these summer movies and not seeing any epic movie trailers.

[Spiderman6592]

I found Rise of the Planet of the Apes to be pretty damn epic. But yes, I agree. Moar TASM, TDKR, and Avengers plz.

[RedIsNotBlue]

I thought the new Mission Impossible trailer was pretty badass. And it sounds like we are going to be getting Spider-Man, TDKR, and Avengers trailers all around the same general time so my head will explode.

[Gamma Goliath]

I found Rise of the Planet of the Apes to be pretty damn epic. But yes, I agree. Moar TASM, TDKR, and Avengers plz.

I agree on the planet of the apes. But that's just about the only trailer that ultimately grabs my interest.

[Spider-ManHero12]

You mean the one with Symbiote Spidey on the chruch ? If so I'd love something like that as far as footage goes. Yes!

[Pac-Master]

While I think the teaser for TDK was short and effective I seriously doubt they were going to repeat that style so yeah I am expecting at least some kind of footage with Bale as Batman.

Any preview for any Spider-Man movie should have at least one shot of Spidey in action period.

I agree.

[Spider-ManHero12]

A trailer without Spidey in action would be odd, lol.

[Troy_Parker]

Once we're past all of the teaser trailer stuff, I think it'd be cool to have character themed trailers in the months leading up to the movie's release, like one for The Lizard, one for Spider-Man. But then again, they do that stuff with TV spots, don't they? lol

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Yeah, that would probably work best with TV spots. Though, there was a S-M3 symbiote themed trailer.

[Doctor Jones]

I'm excited for TDKR, but not it's teaser. The teaser will probably be similar to the TDK teaser & that thing sucked IMO. The ASM trailer will probably blow TDKR's teaser out of the water, since there'll actually be some footage. Though, TDKR's trailer on the other hand....

You sound as if you've already seen both trailers. :huh:

[Spider-Boy]

I'd like to trailer to focus on the highschool aspect of Peter Parker. Show him getting picked on/bullied, brief shot of the spider bite and then BAM a couple action shots, followed by one money shot of the Lizard at the very end. Simple yet effective, plus it helps the GA differentiate between Rami's film.

[Resistance61513]

....If I'm right about the tone, I'd love to see Trent Reznor do it..

You are my new best friend. :D

[Gamma Goliath]

I wonder what happened to the rumored teaser poster that was supposedly with the schedule

[Spider-ManHero12]

I've been wondering the same thing, lol.

[Scarlettess]

I thought the new Mission Impossible trailer was pretty badass. And it sounds like we are going to be getting Spider-Man, TDKR, and Avengers trailers all around the same general time so my head will explode.

Ditto, but it's gonna be oh so good! :-D I'm so excited for this month! The one i'm most looking forward to the most is of course Spidey, then Avengers, then Batman. This month is gonna be so flippin amazing just based on the fact that i'll be getting three teasers for the three movies i'm anticipating so much! :awesome:

[Scarlettess]

I know i kinda missed this discussion but (even tho i was the one who started it lol) eh...
This is something I'm REALLY excited for. Maybe they'll drop some news. Trent Reznor would be cool, and his harsh, sharp kind of tone might fit this darker movie pretty well.

Then there's Michael Giacchino, who creates a hell of a theme for basically whatever he does.

And Mychael Danna, who did the score for (500). If you listen to that score, I TOTALLY hear Spider-Man. I hope Webb sticks with his roots and goes for Danna.

Michael Giacchino is AMAZING! I never really thought of him of one to compose Spidey, but now i think about it he would be good to do it, I loved his stuff on Lost and Let Me In.

As fir Danna i cant really comment as i havnt seen the movie (yeah i know, i soooo need to pick it up :whatever:) I agree Trent Rezner could be good,
Michael Simpson (or Dust Brothers) could be good too.

I'd love it if someone new who was amazing, i mean amazing came onto the scene though by composing this movie.

ayway just my two cents...

[Spider-ManHero12]

I wish we had an exact date for the Avengers trailer as well, lol.

[Pac-Master]

Edit- nevermind

[Billy the Poet]

Edit- nevermind

So that was just another rumor eh? :)

[Pac-Master]

Just seemed untrue.

[Pac-Master]

BTW, Sony, right now, is having their Cancun event (last year, Andrew Garfield was announced there as Spider-Man). Trailer, perhaps? :awesome:

[Spiderman6592]

I have a feeling this will be with Harry Potter in England at the very least. There's been numerous mentions of trailers being in the UK and as everyone knows HP is coming out next Friday there. I mean I'm not saying I'm positive about it but I think it's pretty likely.

[Dark_Lord]

There's a few people here and there talking about it on Twitter.

And then there's this (also from Twitter):

Yup. They've rated Trailer A, 2D (http://www.bbfc.co.uk/BTxxx280511/) and Trailer A, 3D (http://www.bbfc.co.uk/ATxxx280511/) with a running time of 1:40.

[Spider-ManHero12]

There's a few people here and there talking about it on Twitter.

And then there's this (also from Twitter): Nice! :up:

[Pac-Master]

Yup. They've rated Trailer A, 2D (http://www.bbfc.co.uk/BTxxx280511/) and Trailer A, 3D (http://www.bbfc.co.uk/ATxxx280511/) with a running time of 1:40.
Nice find!

[Billy the Poet]

Seems like good news started to come!

[Spider-ManHero12]

So, it must be with one movie this month. Why am I starting to feel as though it's with Harry Potter?

[Pac-Master]

That would be the best thing ever.

[Mary Jane Watson]

That's great news! :up:

[Spider-ManHero12]

That would be the best thing ever. Agreed, though, I wasn't planning on seeing Harry Potter.

[LegendaryCaleb]

That would be the best thing ever.
my most hyped movie of the year with trailers for the two movies that are my most hyped for next year? i think my brain is gonna explode :awesome: :wow:


if it happens of course.

[Troy_Parker]

Why do you guys think it's with HP all of a sudden? o.0

There's only just under 2 weeks left till Captain America comes out.

[Pac-Master]

I still think it will be with Cap. It just makes sense. By the way, awesome sig, Caleb.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Why do you guys think it's with HP all of a sudden? o.0

There's only just under 2 weeks left till Captain America comes out. Just speculation, man. I still think it's with Cap myself, I'm just saying I've got a feeling that it COULD be with HP.

[TheWallCrawler]

I still think it will be with Cap. It just makes sense. By the way, awesome sig, Caleb.

Cap is just around comic con, why would they bother to put the trailer with cap?

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Teaser with Cap, extended trailer at Comic-Con would be my guess.

[Pac-Master]

Cap is just around comic con, why would they bother to put the trailer with cap?
Just because its on the day of CC doesn't mean that they have to show the same footage at CC. They'll probably show an extended version of the trailer there.

[Troy_Parker]

Didn't somebody working on the movie confirm that we'll be getting an extended version at CC...? :)

[Spider-ManHero12]

Didn't somebody working on the movie confirm that we'll be getting an extended version at CC...? :) I think that was just a rumour.

[Pac-Master]

Don't pay that guy any attention. I think he was lying or something. Either that, or he was just guessing.

[Troy_Parker]

Oh right, damn.

Well in any case, I doubt that they're going to show the same thing at Comic Con... so woot! :D

[Spider-ManHero12]

Don't pay that guy any attention. I think he was lying or something. Either that, or he was just guessing. This.

[Spider-Vader]

The TDKR teaser is 1:33, and ASM's teaser is 1:40. The TDK teaser was :59. I think the TDKR teaser will include footage. It's too long not to have any. Same with ASM's.
:wow: I take back what I said then.


You sound as if you've already seen both trailers. :huh:

I assumed TDKR's trailer would be like TDK's stupid teaser where it's the Bat symbol (or something similar) with a bunch of people talking. But it appears that I was wrong.

[Spideyfan93]

There is no way the teaser is with Harry Potter.


Harry Potter has The FREAKING Dark Knight Rises, Sherlock Holmes 2, the new Scorsese film, and John Carter. Enough new trailers for one damn movie lol.

[HighFivingMF]

the new Scorsese film,

What!?!?!? :wow::awesome:

[craigdbfan]

There is no way the teaser is with Harry Potter.


Harry Potter has The FREAKING Dark Knight Rises, Sherlock Holmes 2, the new Scorsese film, and John Carter. Enough new trailers for one damn movie lol.

lol yeah.

[Pac-Master]

What!?!?!? :wow::awesome:
Hugo Cabret.

[Spideyfan93]

It's a kids movie so I'm not getting too excited.

[Doctor Jones]

Scorsese shooting a children's book adaptation and using 3D. It's at least intriguing.

[Spideyfan93]

Oh for sure! And I'll end up liking it...but I'm more into the violent side of Scorsese, his old side. This is, what you say, intriguing for what he's done before this. Like a complete 180 spin.

Aside from TDKR I'm most interested in the John Carter preview.


Back to Spidey, Captain America debut is likely. I don't see it happening with Cowboys&Aliens.

[HighFivingMF]

Hugo Cabret.

That's not the part I was surprised about. I was surprised about the trailer. Haha.

[itsleroy]

Yup. They've rated Trailer A, 2D (http://www.bbfc.co.uk/BTxxx280511/) and Trailer A, 3D (http://www.bbfc.co.uk/ATxxx280511/) with a running time of 1:40.

Anyone else confused why there's a PG rating and a release date of 03/07/2012?

[socool]

Anyone else confused why there's a PG rating and a release date of 03/07/2012?

PG rating is a place holder. If the movie isn't finished, there is no rating, and the movie isn't finished.

And the movie comes out July 3rd 2012...I thought that was well established by now.

[HighFivingMF]

a release date of 03/07/2012?

Over there it's Day/Month/Year. Here it's Month/Day/Year.

[Spiderman6592]

Anyone else confused why there's a PG rating and a release date of 03/07/2012?

lol Every trailer basically gets a PG rating and in the UK dates are written day/month/year rather than month/day/year. Therefore, it's saying the 3rd of July of 2012.

[AbsractPo3tic]

I think that's everywhere as far as trailer ratings go..unless there is a red band trailer, they're all rated pg

[AbsractPo3tic]

You are my new best friend. :D

Thank you, bro lol..always good to have a friend.

[itsleroy]

Over there it's Day/Month/Year. Here it's Month/Day/Year.

:doh:

Damnit.

I shall never post again!

[Hurm...]

Anyone else confused why there's a PG rating and a release date of 03/07/2012?:doh:

[Spider-ManHero12]

PG rating is a place holder. If the movie isn't finished, there is no rating, and the movie isn't finished.

And the movie comes out July 3rd 2012...I thought that was well established by now. Exactly.

[Excelsior.]

It's a kids movie so I'm not getting too excited.
Scorsese could direct himself sleeping and i will watch it. He is the master.

[Scarlettess]

Scorsese shooting a children's book adaptation and using 3D. It's at least intriguing.

For sure. Anything Scorsese does is intriguing lol

It may well be with HP, if the trailers have already arrived over here, as Captain doesn't come out till the 29th over here (unlike 22nd for America) but yeah it might already have too many, oh well. I'm still betting its with Cap tho.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Yeah, I just don't see it being with HP at this point.

[Eggyman]

Ah yeah, it is the 29th here, isn't it? I'm going to watch Potter at the Printworks next weekend. I'll know by then and come back with a :up: or a :down

Either way, I'm looking forward to Potter getting his head chopped off and Harmione becoming a prostitute. They all growed up!

/haven't read the books

/yes I have

/Voldemort joins the circus

[Billy the Poet]

I have feeling the maximum footage depicting Spider-man in the teaser will be Garfiel in costume taking off his mask :spidey:

[Gamma Goliath]

Man I want a trailer description.

[socool]

I have feeling the maximum footage depicting Spider-man in the teaser will be Garfiel in costume taking off his mask :spidey:

Yeah, I have a feeling we will get a shot of Garfield taking off the mask.

[Spider-ManHero12]

As do I.

[Eggyman]

As do I.

In your opinion :awesome:

[Spider-ManHero12]

How'd you know?!!!!! :wow::awesome:

[Troy_Parker]

A shot of Garfield taking off the mask would be EPIC.

Like at the end of this:

iIaib2a7Vhw&feature=related

And it has to end with an awesome shot like at 0:16.

[Spider-ManHero12]

The opening to that show was the best part, IMO. Well, that and NPH awesome voice for Spidey. Everything else was bleh, if you ask me.

[Troy_Parker]

The opening to that show was the best part, IMO. Well, that and NPH awesome voice for Spidey. Everything else was bleh, if you ask me.

Sometimes it did come off as if it was trying too hard to impress the MTV crowd but, I liked it. It was a modern twist on Spider-Man... and, say what you will about it BUT, The Lizard episode was just epic.

[Eggyman]

I really enjoyed it. It was the lack of first tier villains that let it down. Spidey was great.

[Pac-Master]

The opening to that show was the best part, IMO. Well, that and NPH awesome voice for Spidey. Everything else was bleh, if you ask me.
Agreed, though I haven't seen all the episodes. The ones I saw were kinda bad.

[Pac-Master]

Hopefully we get more substantial trailer news this week.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Sometimes it did come off as if it was trying too hard to impress the MTV crowd but, I liked it. It was a modern twist on Spider-Man... and, say what you will about it BUT, The Lizard episode was just epic. There's a difference between being modern and appealing to a certain crowd. That's what the MTV show did and, IMO, it came off pretty badly. That's just me though.

[AbsractPo3tic]

I actually have the series on DVD..I got it right before I went to college or during my freshman year..can't remember and it was maybe $15..it definitely has it's issues but there are things I really like about it. The Lizard episode was great, I didn't mind Aunt May not being there as much as I had issues with the embargo they had on a lot of villains so they didn't get the opportunity to use them. Couldn't use Goblin, Ock, Sandman or Venom if I recall and I think there were a few more just in case they wanted to use them in the movies....I hate embargoes. I did love the relationship between Harry and Pete though and even his relationship with MJ.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Didn't Rob Zombie voice Dr. Connors?

[AbsractPo3tic]

Yeah...he did a decent job too.

[socool]

Didn't Rob Zombie voice Dr. Connors?

Yeah. He also made all the sounds of The Lizard. Hissing and all.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Rob Zombie's awesome in general, I must say.

[AbsractPo3tic]

Rob Zombie's awesome in general, I must say.

Except his halloween films but that's a different discussion..I still can't believe I paid money to see the second one

8 Things We Learned About THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN From Our Exclusive Interview with Screenwriter Steve Kloves (http://collider.com/steve-kloves-interview-the-amazing-spider-man/101453/)

I think you are my new best friend, man..awesome find and I like what I'm reading

[Troy_Parker]

8 Things We Learned About THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN From Our Exclusive Interview with Screenwriter Steve Kloves (http://collider.com/steve-kloves-interview-the-amazing-spider-man/101453/)

AWESOME.

God, July 2012 can't come soon enough.

[Spiderman6592]

Awesome. Guess this confirms a more realistic, gritty and less campy/goofy tone of the series. I like.

[Spider-ManHero12]

It's good to know Kloves is a fan of Raimi's films. I don't see how Raimi's version is cartoony, but whatever. We all have different opinions.

I wonder what he means by following the action? That's a good thing, if you ask me. Did they use the Spyder-Cam for this film? If so, then I expect we'll see the same type of action "with" Spidey as we did before. I'm also guess thing they whent through round 2 of the mechanical vs. organic web-shooters, lol?

[cwere]

8 Things We Learned About THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN From Our Exclusive Interview with Screenwriter Steve Kloves (http://collider.com/steve-kloves-interview-the-amazing-spider-man/101453/)

awesome!

"There was a reason for it. It was about an organic thing versus a mechanical—making it."

So its both organic and the mechanicals are there to control the flow of it then.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Well, we don't know that just yet, but it's possible.

[AbsractPo3tic]

It's good to know Kloves is a fan of Raimi's films. I don't see how Raimi's version is cartoony, but whatever.

I wonder what he means by following the action? That's a good thing, if you ask me. Did they use the Spyder-Cam for this film? If so, then I expect we'll see the same type of action "with" Spidey as we did before.

I think he means "with Spidey" in the realm that with 3D, you can really follow the action very easily and feel like you're with them..The Spidey-Cam was used more so for swinging scenes if I'm not mistaken and with 3D, you can take that to the next level..there's a great scene in transformers that illustrates what I'm trying to say.

As far as the word, "cartoonish" I don't think he or the interviewer mean it as a slight, because he said that's Sam's style and all of Sam's movies have that style to them, everything really jumps off of the screen and is almost to the point where he is winking at you behind the camera and that works perfectly for Sam. But it is the same way that Tim Burton's Batman is compared to Batman Begins and The Dark Knight: While Tim's two films are definitely dark and very brooding, there is a very bright and cartoonish feel to them in certain parts, particularly with the Joker. That doesn't mean it's bad because Tim knew how to do that and most of Tim's films are like that. Like Kloves said, it works for Sam but he couldn't have worked on those films and Heath Ledger said the same thing about the Joker. He didn't understand how to play a villain in the world Tim Burton created but he understood how to play one in Christopher Nolan's world.

[Pac-Master]

?? How the hell did you come to that conclusion?
:lmao:

[©KAW]

He says the tone is more realistic than the previous Spider-Man films. He wanted to make sure that the film was grounded in reality, because he said he can’t write cartoony dialogue. They told him reality was what they wanted, they wanted him to write Peter Parker as a real character.My favorite part of the interview.I don't see how Raimi's version is cartoony, but whatever. We all have different opinions.It's not an opinion, it's fact that Spider-Man had cartoonish dialogue and characters. As I have been saying for damn-near 10 years. I'm glad they got this guy on board, especially for the dialogue and character development for the two leads.

[AbsractPo3tic]

awesome!

"There was a reason for it. It was about an organic thing versus a mechanical—making it."

So its both organic and the mechanicals are there to control the flow of it then.

I don't think that's what he meant..I think he was saying there was a reason they went for mechanical and there may have been a bit of a debate in-house as to which direction to go in

[cwere]

I don't think that's what he meant..I think he was saying there was a reason they went for mechanical and there may have been a bit of a debate in-house as to which direction to go in

ahh I see, well we'll know soon enough anyways when the trailer hits ^^

[Pac-Master]

I don't think that's what he meant..I think he was saying there was a reason they went for mechanical and there may have been a bit of a debate in-house as to which direction to go in
Yep, that's what he meant, cwere. They're not merging the two.

[Pac-Master]

It's good to know Kloves is a fan of Raimi's films. I don't see how Raimi's version is cartoony, but whatever. We all have different opinions.
Agreed. I didn't get that either. I guess he means less exaggerated.

[AbsractPo3tic]

I think Raimi's films were definitely cartoony... The big, busty, hot hos screaming into the camera multiple times over the course of one movie... Unnecessary

Lol that's funny..I really laughed out loud reading that..I don't know if I agree or disagree but that's hilarious lol

[RedIsNotBlue]

Raimi was a fan of the comics and made comic book films. He wasn't trying to "make Spider-Man realistic" so of course the movies have silly and ridiculous moments. People seem to forget the source material when criticizing Raimi's films...lol.

[AbsractPo3tic]

*bows* hahah

well deserved bow...anyway, now that I can think instead of laughing, you do have a point but as I said before, that works for Sam..he can have that type of thing in his movies and not have it feel forced or go overboard to the point where it feels like a B-movie. I know what scenes you're talking about also and while that worked then, audiences have shown that they don't really want that type of stuff in their comic book films now like Kloves said, it's a different time now. Movies are always a product of their time and those movies are products of their time. I love the first two and am really in love with the 2nd but based on what I just read and actually watching the interview, I'm really excited for this new take.

[terry78]

Raimi basically was taking the 60s sensibilities and transplanting them into a modern setting, which was an artistic decision that I did enjoy in the first two.

[Spider-ManHero12]

As far as the word, "cartoonish" I don't think he or the interviewer mean it as a slight, because he said that's Sam's style and all of Sam's movies have that style to them, everything really jumps off of the screen and is almost to the point where he is winking at you behind the camera and that works perfectly for Sam. If that is the case, Well, Sam has stated himself that his Spider-Man's world is fantasty even though there are a lot of realistic elements in it. I, for one, have laways thought his Spider-Man was pretty damn realistic even though there were fantasy elemnts in there as well as the comics. One of the many things I love about his version.

[Spider-ManHero12]

It's not an opinion, it's fact that Spider-Man had cartoonish dialogue and characters. As I have been saying for damn-near 10 years. I'm glad they got this guy on board, especially for the dialogue and character development for the two leads. And that's why you will always remain a user that people argue with. You are ignorant to what is "fact" and what is an "opinion". Argueing with you is like argueing with a wall. Ther'es no smooth talking with you at all. It's your way or you don't want to hear it, which is laughable.

[AbsractPo3tic]

If that is the case, Well, Sam has stated himself that his Spider-Man's world is fantasty even though there are a lot of realistic elements in it. I, for one, have laways thought his Spider-Man was pretty damn realistic even though there were fantasy elemnts in there as well as the comics. One of the many things I love about his version.

Yup and just like in the comics, it all depends on who's writing it or in this case, who's behind the camera. Some writers prefer Spidey as a street level hero when he fights the kingpin, the goblin and other mob types and some like when he gets tangled up in the fantasy moments with the FF and secret wars and Captain Universe lol..it all comes down to what type of stories you like and what works best for the character. In this case, the marketplace has changed a bit since 2002 and with a new director new cast and new writers, it only makes sense to change the tone. The funny thing about all of this, is they have these same arguments in comics..I remember Marvel, after JMS left the title and they did the whole Brand New Day with the rotation of writers, they all said that Spidey stories had become too serious and too realistic and they wanted to inject more of what they loved from the 70s. Different strokes for different folks

[Spider-ManHero12]

And guess what happened? The darkness that was taken out was for the best. Spider-Man comics, IMO, are better now than they have been since JMS/JRJR's run and most people agree.

In the end, all I want is to be satsified like I was with Raimi's version of Spider-Man. It had a lot of heart and still does. Hell, It's my favorite superhero film franchise of all time. I have hope this reboot will do the same for me.

I agree that it definitely went too dark but I'll always prefer JMS as a writer to anyone they've had writing since but that's just me. I do agree that they're definitely better than they've been since it was consistently JMS and John Romita, Jr...they had an incredible run and made great great great stuff. The only thing that tarnishes this current run of comics, for me anyway, is the fact that I can't get invested in any of Pete's relationships..the one with Carlie is forced and you know it won't go anywhere because they don't want the guy to have another MJ type relationship. She is definitely something sorely missing from the books.

Plus, to be fair to JMS, a lot of this darkness that Marvel and the writers had a problem with, was based on Marvel's direction of the character..civil war, the unmasking, the back in black tie-in with Spidey 3, and One More Day...JMS' last couple of years on spidey were all driven by higher editorial mandates

And I wouldn't worry about the movie having heart because Steve Kloves has injected heart in every Harry Potter film he's written. Lol I know you're not a fan of the franchise but definitely check some out to get a hold of his style and what he can do

[Spider-ManHero12]

The only thing that tarnishes this current run of comics, for me anyway, is the fact that I can't get invested in any of Pete's relationships..the one with Carlie is forced and you know it won't go anywhere because they don't want the guy to have another MJ type relationship. She is definitely something sorely missing from the books.

Plus, to be fair to JMS, a lot of this darkness that Marvel and the writers had a problem with, was based on Marvel's direction of the character..civil war, the unmasking, the back in black tie-in with Spidey 3, and One More Day...JMS' last couple of years on spidey were all driven by higher editorial mandates Dan Slott is one of my favorite writers of the past 10 years and I loved his recent run on ASM. and there's one specific issue that is just incredible. I think you know which one I'm talking about, lol. As for Carlie, she's no Mary Jane, but I like her.

Definitely agree about the editorial stuff. That goes to show that permanent darkness is not meant for Spider-Man. Joe Quesda REALLY pissed me off when he split up Pete and MJ. However, ever since that first issue of BND, I've had an overall big smile on my face.

I really liked Back In Black, but Civil War can just go to hell with unmasking him. I actually dropped ASM for a short time before he unmasked. It disgusted me so much, but it wasn't for long.

Btw, I edited my previous post.

[Infinity9999x]

My favorite part of the interview.It's not an opinion, it's fact that Spider-Man had cartoonish dialogue and characters. As I have been saying for damn-near 10 years. I'm glad they got this guy on board, especially for the dialogue and character development for the two leads.

Even though I agree with you, it still doesn't make it fact. It's an opinion. Because what people view as "real" is subjective. Most people would view the people on Jersey Shore as cartoonish imitations of normal people. However, there are people who act like that every day.

So yeah, it's still an opinion.

[AbsractPo3tic]

See that's the thing, I like her too but as readers, we know it's not going anywhere and I feel that their relationship has just been forced from a writing standpoint and to a reader. Slott is an awesome writer and I love what he's doing with everything else except that relationship. He really knows the character and knows what to do with him and is actually letting him grow and progress, but then don't expect me to be all invested in he and Carlie if you've already told me that the relationship can go nowhere because it will "age" the character. That's double talk to me. I liked parts of back in black but I also recognized it for what it was..marketing tie-in lol..I remember when it started and spider-man 3 came out, they had Peter David and a couple other writers at Midtown comics in Manhattan autographing comics. Marvel knew they were doing a tie in and that's no diss to them but don't insult my intelligence.

Quesada pissed me off too because it was what HE wanted lol..for so long, I kept hearing that they were going to tell stories they couldn't tell with a married spider-man and aside from the Black Cat entanglement, what couldn't have been told if he and MJ were still together? Then the excuse that it's hard to write a married Spider-Man, well JMS wrote it extremely well so I cry BS on that one too. I really don't think this movie will be doom and gloom dark but will probably be in the tone of some of the more recent Harry Potter movies, which is a perfect balance of reality and fantasy.

Marvel knew they were doing a tie in and that's no diss to them but don't insult my intelligence. There's no denying it was a tie-in, but I did like it. I guess to each his own about Spidey's love life. I loved when he and MJ were married, but I've sort of gotten over it since then. It did piss me off when they were split though.

Quesada pissed me off too because it was what HE wanted lol..for so long, I kept hearing that they were going to tell stories they couldn't tell with a married spider-man and aside from the Black Cat entanglement, what couldn't have been told if he and MJ were still together? Then the excuse that it's hard to write a married Spider-Man, well JMS wrote it extremely well so I cry BS on that one too. Well, writers have been trying to end the marriage for years, lol. When I first heard that they were definitely going to be split, it really did burst my bubble. The fact that the character aged is one of the things I loved about the character. He whent from being a high school kid, to a college kid, to a full fledged adult. One of the many things I loved during JMS's run was when Peter was a teacher as well as his overall relationship with MJ (as his wife). There was a closeness about the characters that was there in that run. I can't really put my finger on it.

However, like I said, I've been having the time of my life with the current state of Spider-Man comics. It's like a breath of fresh air after a few years of medicore-good Spider-Man stories and I REALLY REALLY REALLY hope it continues. Spider-Island sounds fantasitc and will most likely be another addition to one of my favorite Spide-rMan stories in recent years. Call me happy. :up:

The stuff started to go downhill with Sins Past, if you ask me as well as The Other. Civil War was unncessary for SPidey, Back in Black was good (if you ask me), OMD was terrible and BND was awesome. That's how I see it, lol.

[spida-man]

i could picture hearing something like this in the film:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG25zZGZRZ0&feature=related

[AbsractPo3tic]

I've gotten over it definitely but I just feel she is sorely missing from the books..being with her definitely helped Pete grow up and it was evident in the last issue where he doesn't want to tell Carlie the truth about him being Spider-Man..he had come a long way from the guy who felt the person he was with couldn't handle that secret and now he's back to it. That closeness you mentioned came from JMS writing them as a real couple instead of a comic book couple, if that makes any sense..he didn't make their relationship typical or stereotypical.

They had been trying to get rid of the marriage for a while but I felt JMS did a great job with them and I loved Pete being a teacher because it was a natural evolution, although I like him working for Horizon much more..and the less said about Sins Past, the better. But The Other was another editorial mandate and it was terrible. Quesada did a lot of bad to Spidey now that I think about it

I hope he sticks with that job.

As for Quesada in general, his choices were bad before BND. I don't think he intended for them to be bad, but they were flat out poor. Well, most of them, anyway. Since BND, we've gotten Villains such as Mr. Negative, which I think is a very interesting character and is quite different. Back before The Spectacular Spider-Man TV show was cancelled (Damn you whoever was involved in cancelling it!!!), Greg Weisman stated that he would like to use Mr. Negative down the line. Would have been awesome, if you ask me. Eddie Brock is also now Anti-Venom, which I think was a great step foward with the character since he got cancer. And now Flash is Venom, which seems to be qorking out greatly. You should check out the new Venom series by Rick Remender.

I'm just happy Spidey is back to being awesome again. If you ask me, anyway.

[Pac-Master]

I have a question for you guys...

If the trailer were to leak in bootleg quality this week, would you watch it, or would you skip it and wait for the HD version in two weeks? Just wondering.

I like Mr. Negative and I think he'll be more interesting since his secret is out. And blame Marvel/Disney for canceling it lol..they wanted to produce their own show and not have Sony involved..good business decision but questionable creative decision. I'm still not a fan of Anti Venom because I've never liked Brock as this lethal protector but I will check out Flash as Venom because the concept intrigued me, just never got around to checking it out.

I'd watch the bootleg and the official one, no sweat off my back.

Yeah I don't think they'll have anything that big this time around. I'm noticing studios finding cheaper ways to market films these days, yet still just as effective. The internet is a different beast than it was in 07, which is crazy cause it was just four years ago

I gotta agree. While, Spidey had a couple of horrible years, Dan Slott's fixed that & is writing some really entertaining stories. Though, I do wish that writers would of pursued the Ms. Marvel/Spidey thing hinted at in New Avengers, instead of giving Peter some random girl who isn't Gwen or MJ. It would of been interesting to see Peter date someone who could kick his ass.

If the trailer were to leak in bootleg quality this week, would you watch it, or would you skip it and wait for the HD version in two weeks? Just wondering.

I'd watch it in black&white with no sound!!

[socool]

Who DOESNT like Emma?

[WarriorDreamer]

Yeah it sounds really promising from the amount he's said in the interview. I like that 'he said he doesn't write cartoony dialouge.' So I doubt this will feel too over-the-top comic book-y and I imagine it's gonna be more well... realistic and that all important 'gritty.'

It's good to hear he likes writing for Peter and Gwen. Although I hope they don't write Gwen as the same sarcastic caustic girl Emma always plays in alot of her movies.

I was looking forward to seeing a completely different character from Emma. Not any kind of nerd and not a 'deadpan snarker' either.

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DeadpanSnarker


Just Gwen as Gwen should be to a modern audience. It isn't asking for much.

That sounds amazing!

[Spider-ManHero12]

Only 2 days to the trailer, if we'll get it with Harry Potter that is I think it's doubtful it'll be with Harry Poter. Now Captain Ameria is a completley different story.

[hatebox]

It probably is with Cap.

Putting it with Potter could actually be a bad idea. I don't want to start an argument, but let's face it - if both TAS and TDKR had trailer debuting with Potter, TDKR's going to be more talked about.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^ This is sad, but true at the same time.

[Eggyman]

It probably is with Cap.

I understand what you're saying, but I don't think what it comes with will make any difference. If people are gonna talk about TDKR more than TAS then it's down to there being more fans of the former, not what film it was shown with. If anything, Potter will have more viewers than Cap so it would help to even the odds. Even if Spidey was shown with Cap, TDKR would still have a larger following. You only have to see the number of viewers on TDKR boards to work that out.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Ehhh, I don't know if that's necessarily true. Of course people wanna see the finale to Batman, but a new Spider-Man, (with a hopefully bangin trailer) will definitely have people interested. And just like that, the hype machine begins. Well, obviosuly, Spider-Man would draw a massive crowd whether it's for Spider-Man 4 or TASM because it's Spider-Man. I think people have been wanting another Spider-Man film for a while.

[Doctor Jones]

Not as many people will see this movie. Just because it's Spider-Man doesn't mean you'll get the same audience. It's facing more of an uphill battle this time. It will do well enough, but it won't make as much as the other three. The whole reboot thing is going to make people skeptical as it is.

Look at Batman Begins. It was a reboot facing an uphill battle (well...more like a straight 90 degree battle) and it did OK at the box office even though, I feel, it's Nolan's best work. (Yes, even better than TDK)

Spider-Man will probably do the same. But then there are those who think a bad costume=a bad movie. :doh: You don't like the costume? Fine. Give the freaking movie a chance.

[AbsractPo3tic]

I still say good word of mouth will put past any skepticism..plus the over a years worth of promotion. X-men first class and Batman Begins didn't start their promotional campaigns as early as Spidey will. It may not make as much as Spider-Man 3 but I think it will be comparable to the first spidey film. X-Men first class didn't start promoting until, April I think and the film came out in June. Batman Begins started in December 04 with Ocean's 12 and the movie was released the following June. There all guesses but I don't think it's accurate to say that it will or won't put a bad taste in people's mouths, the only real way to know that is the interest level in the film once July '12 gets closer.

There's actually a few people I've talked to outsideo f the itnernet who have no interest in this new one that loved the first 3.

[Pac-Master]

Well, they haven't seen the trailer yet. It will be a deciding factor for them. I do agree that it won't make as much money as SM3, though.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ True, but still. It happens with most films that get rebooted.

[Gwendolyn Stacy]

If they give us a Gwen like the one in the Spectacular Spider-man animated series, I ll be the happiest man on the face of planet Earth! Gwen's characterization in that cartoon was superb

Gwen's one of my favorite characters in TSSM and I'm looking forward to seeing her again in the reboot. Anyways, I don't know if the reboot will make as much money as the last ones did, but I still think it'll still do pretty well at the box office. It is Spider-Man, after all. Plus, I'm sure that a lot of kids will want to see the movie which will help boost its numbers.

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

^ This is sad, but true at the same time.

Sad?

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Well, IMO, anyway. You have to take in the fact that I'm a Spider-Man fan, so of course I'm going ot want a Spider-Man film to be the most popular, lol. :woot:

[Eggyman]

It's his opinion!

Agreed. I hope that Sony can bring an amazing trailer to WOW them. Then people can spread the good word of mouth to other people.

Also..remember that the people usually judge a movie by its trailer. Even I do that too.

[Eggyman]

Yeh. I need to see how those swinging shots we saw have been cut together. It's my favourite part of Spidey: swinging. I need to see him swing.

Agreed. I hope that Sony can bring an amazing trailer to WOW them. Then people can spread the good word of mouth to other people.

Also..remember that the people usually judge a movie by its trailer. Even I do that too. Sony has not dissapointed with making their Spider-Man trailers epic so far, so I think it's a safe bet that we'll be blown away with the trailer to this movie.

^ No problem for us at all. :up:

I think that Sony DONT want to make teaser trailer like TDK's.

[Billy the Poet]

I still say good word of mouth will put past any skepticism..plus the over a years worth of promotion. X-men first class and Batman Begins didn't start their promotional campaigns as early as Spidey will. It may not make as much as Spider-Man 3 but I think it will be comparable to the first spidey film. X-Men first class didn't start promoting until, April I think and the film came out in June. Batman Begins started in December 04 with Ocean's 12 and the movie was released the following June. There all guesses but I don't think it's accurate to say that it will or won't put a bad taste in people's mouths, the only real way to know that is the interest level in the film once July '12 gets closer.

The teaser came out in Feb, marking the beginning of the official campaign, if you exclude these awful screening photos of all the characters together.

TAS, in my opinion, will be either new BB (+ 3D, which obviously means more money) or another SR (not that low, but still disappointing). I am hoping for the former, of course.

Yeh. I need to see how those swinging shots we saw have been cut together. It's my favourite part of Spidey: swinging. I need to see him swing.

I just found that we have a lot in common. :hehe:

Spidey's final swing in SM1 and SM2 that blew me away.

Yup. It'd be silly.

And I think it's pretty much obvious that we're going to be getting a -fairly- juicy trailer after the delay we had for this previously, to polish up the effects.

They wouldn't go through all that trouble for a logo and a few lines. ;)

[Spider-ManHero12]

So true, lol.

Me too. I prefer the final swing from the first film. It felt more like you were swinging with him due to the camera following him so closely. In the second, although great, I felt more of a spectator, like I was watching him from a window or something. Plus, with the first swing he interacted with the enviroment--running on the walls, swinging from the cranes, grabbing the flag pole. Iconic? I think so.

Your logic gives me tingles.

[Spider-ManHero12]

I remember sitting in the theater watching that end swing and being in awe. Hell, the second swing was fantastic as well with him swinging with the helicopters and all. The first one wowed me the most though because it was the first time ever seeing a superhero move like that and just so many other things. :up:

Oh man, that was too obvious. But yeah, we are going to get an amazing trailer. Period.

I hope that's good. :funny:

Love your sig, spiderfan24.

[Mary Jane Watson]

Thanks, SMH12.

So do I :)

[Spider-ManHero12]

Great scene overall. The shot off the crane and MJ reflecting off of Spidey's lenses are easily iconic.

You're right it was February..either way, that's 4 months of promo as opposed to a whole year of promo..big difference

Oh and the trailer is what, 1:40?? There shouldn't be any doubt that it will have a good amount of stuff in it..

[Spider-ManHero12]

Wasn't Spider-Man 3's teaser 1:40? We got a great amount of footage in that teaser.

I think so, even though the effects weren't finished. Loved it... saw it at a friends house, it got me super hyped. :awesome::up:
