The Amazing Spider-Man OMG! Josh Hutcherson's Audition! Must SEE!

[ultimatefan]

Looks all wrong for the part IMO, and didn´t see much to his acting, but you gotta admire how much effort was put into this.

 

[dark_b]

noone looks like the character on audition tapes.not trying to defend him.i could care less.

but its just funny how comicbook fans have no problem looking back on old audition tapes from their heroes. they are smiling how the actor didnt look the part. but for some reason Hutcerson needs to look like Parker in a 200million movie.

IMO

 

[Rodrigo90]

He did a pretty good job. That line at the end though left me with the feeling that they might have finally got things right.

 

[White_Knight191]

Well now we got a taste how the fights are gonna be in the movie. Looks pretty good. But I'm happy with Andrew Garfield because this guy really doesn't look like Peter Parker. And like Rodrigo90 said about that line in the end, hopefully they got it right.

The end of the video definitely had been the best part. I see a lot of acting potential in just those few seconds.

This movie will not cost $200 million. I would be shocked if they give the budget $120 million.

Yeah, I read somewhere that the budget for the reboot is $80 million? Seem like Sony is playing it safe.

 

[Doctor Jones]

I still think the budget wil increase as they go. The first film had a budget around there as well, but it went up.

 

[Crockett]

Nonetheless I think the budget is enough, it motivates more creativity and focus when making the film.
Sometimes higher budgets does not equal higher quality, I mean look at how well SM3 turns out.

Although we don't know the actual budget, I agree. The focus needs to be on creativity and quality. This clip is a perfect example of less money forcing creativity on film. The wireworks looks better than anything in Raimi's almost 600M dollar trilogy.

This looked like a variation of the high school fight scene from Spiderman 1....If Sony is going to make Spidey 1 over again I don't see the point. What, are they going to replace GG with Lizard and Black Cat and do the same Fing movie again??? Seriously? Why can't we skip over the origin with mentions or flashbacks coming later? Spiderman's origin can be explained in 5 seconds to a 4 year old kid in a dark theater without missing anything. This film should of been a continuation of the last series with the Lizard, Venom and Carnage. Lizard would the be personal issues, Venom would make a comeback and challenge Spidey, Carnage would be a result of Venom's rebirth and bring Spiderman and Venom together to defeat him in the end. That movie would outsell the previous film easily. SONY just shut down production and let the rights go back to Marvel because your attempts at making this franchise good again is impossible when it's in incapable hands.

I don't think this had anything to do with the actual film. It is an audition tape, the guy was free to do what he wanted to try and get the role. Although I would have chose something that had nothing to do with the previous films, especially that god awful music.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Danny Elfman's music is awesome. Hulk Angry.

 

[spidermanJLA!~]

For some of you guys who think these are actual aspects of the movie- WRONG!

This is an audition! i am pretty sure they are just using these aspects to see how the actor can...

-act like peter
-move like spider-man

And thats it!

 

[spidermanJLA!~]

IMO, they have a good idea of the spider sense.

 

[spidermanJLA!~]

Oh and one more thing, 2:10 was siiiiick.

What makes you so certain that this audition is a retread of the actual origin?? Is it the glasses that compels you to make such a sweeping statement? I'm pretty sure I didn't watch a clip of Peter being bitten by a spider. I saw Peter in high school taking out a couple of goons. Please explain your logic.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Wait so, that one moment of a quip is more important than the heart of the character? Because the humanity of Peter is much more important. HIs quips come after it. I don't care how good and witty the quips are, if we don't feel and care for Peter and understand him than we don't care and he becomes annoying smart ass.

 

[Marvel Spider]

Was this an audition orchestrated by Sony? It could've just been something he sent in for them to consider him...

 

[Rodrigo90]

Oh absolutely. I agree 100% with you,Doctor Jones. I just meant that they have quips at last!!!

Bingo!

I do believe that to be the case...
I mean, if this was official, and based on an actually scene from the movie, then sony probably wouldn't of let it get out... its most likely just something Josh and his people put together

 

[MadVillainy]

This is cool because I didnt know auditions wokred this way I thought they were like Entourage where you came in and just read the lines

 

[Dragon]

Auditions do work that way. Thisi is a screen test.

 

[Jumpin' Jack]

I think he would have made a better hulk with all those weird faces and breathing.
