Nitpicks or small issues you have with the ASM movie so far.
 
Okay then.

I still don't like the texture of the costume and Garfield's Spidey voice seems a little sqeaky.

Everything else looks perfect though. The trailer blew me away.
 
The Lizard design looks terrible...

That's it
 
I think it's awesome, the humanoid thing looks pretty creepy

I don't think his voice was squeaky at all, but I will admit it was a little...odd at some points, but once again it could be him trying to do a Queens accent like he said he was going for a looooong time ago.
 
All my complaints of the shoes and the belt are gone.

My nitpick of Lizard without a lab coat is gone.

I'm just amazed by the trailer.
 
I think the costume sucks. Andrew Garfield's voice is pretty bad. Denis Leary isn't convincing as Captain Stacy. The Lizard should be, you know, more Lizard-looking. And the guy playing Flash looks stupid.
 
If you say so

Lizards design
The long swinging shot didnt look good(others were amazing though)
Black and white flashback(it was only for the trailer though so whatever)
The way the trailer was cut(some of the lines were cut improperly and you cluld hear the beginning of the next sentence
Most of the lines seemed contrived to me but thats properly because its not the proper pace and they'll seem much more natural playing out in their whole scenes
Some moments felt more like a TV show drama than a movie but again probably because i dont have a sense of pace it will be at in the complete product.

Thats about it.
 
I'm loving the trailer. The suit doesn't bother me much anymore, but the eyes/lenses do now. The gold lenses isn't an issue, but the blue trim is.

Also, I kinda wish the Lizard had a coat or at least a piece of it still on his body, even if its ripped off to the point of coming off of him.

Is it me or does some of the CGI seem a bit weird? For instance, the city and the few dozen cars on the street look really off. I hope it's not finish, it better get polished when it's released.
 
He looks like Buzz Lightyear with his red beams that shoot out of his webshooter. It just needs the sound effect.

Practical swinging looks bad.
 
The biggest thing that needs refinement are the effects, though that should be obvious. But with so much relying on it, it's a valid critique. The matte background shots and the set pieces in general have this sheen to it that is vaguely reminiscent of a really well done hi-tech vfx demo.
 
Wonder if the falling antenna at the end is what results in
Capt Stacy's death?

And I am hoping that Gwen does NOT know who Peter is... but the scene where she is doctoring a cut/battle bruised Peter is confusing to me....

No, it doesn't. I'm sorry, I can't accept this. I can accept just about everything else you don't like, since it's your opinion, but this is overdoing it. If you think it looks bad, you obviously prefer something fake looking. You can't get more real looking than REALITY.

Well there's a part where Gwen says "I'm in trouble". So I think she figures it out at some point.

Agreed on the labcoat (torn remments) being on the Lizard... still hoping that we will get some of that.

That part of him swinging after it shows Lizard go through the car, looks God awful. It looks choppy and fake as hell. It looks like a real person on a green screen and horribly done at that. The shot starts out fine but once he goes to the street and back up it just looks like ass. If you think that looks good then, okay.

Yep, that line worries me along those lines. And one other shot of Andrew jumping off the building... does not look good. He seemed almost hesitant as opposed to really flying off the building with the jump. But that is a nitpick, the thing with Gwen knowing is more of a biggie for me

That part wasn't practical...at least I don't think it was. Was it the scene where the camera zooms into Spidey's back? If so, that's not practical. That scene is too large in scale. I think it looks meh to you, (and I will admit, that scene wasn't the best looking) because that scene was obviously intended for 3D, you can just tell. The choppiness was supposed to be for the sense of speed I think.

That was most definitely not green screen or a real person. Out of any shot in the trailer, that is the most obvious computer-generated one. Nice concept, but I do agree that it was oddly choppy and sped up.
 
I don't like the suit and a couple cg shots. Other than that , it looks great.

To me it looked like a green screen.

Even the shots in the trailer that were from the set video of him swinging are unimpressive to me.
