And we all know by now that Peter attends ESU in ASM2.

No we don't.

 

[SpideyFan866]

ASM2 is coming out in Spain on April 16th next year. This is crazy. Why is the gap between U.S. dates and other dates so large for this movie? Everything will be leaked...

They are employing a strategy similar to what Marvel Studios did with The Avengers, and releasing internationally in most territories, prior to the US release.

However, Sony is taking a step further and releasing virtually everywhere before the US (save for a few places), and rather than releasing in all those initial places within a few days span , they'll be spreading it out over the weeks between April 16 and May 2.

And I think their main reason is that it increases the amount of time it has "alone" in those top earning international markets by about a month.

The only other big release in April is Cap 2 on the 4th (which ASM2 will likely crush internationally), and none really after that until DOFP on May 23.

So in a way, its smart. Not only does it give it ample time to thrive (something the 1st lacked severely), but the word of mouth from international audiences will get US audiences into theaters. And word of mouth is extremely important in the US.

No we don't.

Fair enough. They haven't said that he attends ESU, but we know he attends college at some point in this film.

 

[Marvel Spider]

The MCU already had a Spidey easter egg, with ESU being established in one of their one shots.

And we all know by now that Peter attends ESU in ASM2.

In a One Shot short film. It's just an easter egg that doesn't mean much. That's like saying Raimi's Spider-Man is in the MCU because they mentioned Doctor Strange.

I kinda just used that as an example. I know it didn't mean much. And it certainly wasn't inserted with that intention considering that ASM2 wasn't even written yet.

But if Avi and Matt were to be believed, any possible connecting easter eggs would be small ones like that anyways.

Crossovers would probably be out of the question for the forseeable future. And good thing too.

 

[amazingly atiba]

i would hate a cross over -____- but im very curious as to what hints are in store

 

[amazingly atiba]

i also cant get the new remixed theme from the trailer outta my head ahaha

 

[Green Goblin]

Trailer!? Do you mean the SDCC footage?

 

[JOE]

Because it nearly happened last year.

Nearly happened? When was this?

 

[Green Goblin]

Nearly happened? When was this?

Oscorp tower in TA

 

[JOE]

Yes, he's referring to the SDCC footage. It's the only footage out there besides Jamie Foxx as Electro.

 

[JOE]

Oscorp tower in TA

So why does something nearly happening entail that it'll happen the second time around. If anything, it's reason to believe if they shot it down the first time, they won't even revisit it this time.

 

[Green Goblin]

Yes, he's referring to the SDCC footage. It's the only footage out there besides Jamie Foxx as Electro.

So is he saying someone remixed it? Love your avatar by the way.

 

[SpideyFan866]

Oscorp tower in TA

This.

 

[JOE]

This.

I read it, and responded to it. I don't consider that a big deal, especially considering they never went through with it.

Why does an "almost" or "nearly" count as a "possibly" for the next one? I just don't understand the reasoning.

Oscorp was in the background of an Iron Man Leggo box as well.

 

[amazingly atiba]

So is he saying someone remixed it? Love your avatar by the way.

you did look at the footage right? the remixed theme?

 

[JOE]

So is he saying someone remixed it? Love your avatar by the way.

Gracias amigo!

 

[amazingly atiba]

^ did you like the new theme or what?

 

[Vid Electricz]

No we don't.

Fair enough. They haven't said that he attends ESU, but we know he attends college at some point in this film.

Yes, he does attend college and if you look at the picture of Peter in his messy room, you can see a mug with the letters "ESU" on them. That's probably meaningless though...

 

[Nicko-Ray]

Yes, he does attend college and if you look at the picture of Peter in his messy room, you can see a mug with the letters "ESU" on them. That's probably meaningless though...

Yeah maybe we see a brief moment of him moving in or whatever. I remember reading that the film mostly takes place in the summer so they're probably all on vacation throughout the film.

 

[Green Goblin]

TASM2- Spidey's summer vacation.

 

[SpideyFan866]

Yes, he does attend college and if you look at the picture of Peter in his messy room, you can see a mug with the letters "ESU" on them. That's probably meaningless though...

OH YEAH! I forgot about that! I knew ESU had been mentioned/seen somewhere.

 

[AF3619]

I´ve been listening to a lot of Hans Zimmer´s soundtracks (The Last Samurai,TDK trilogy,Man of Steel,Kung Fu Panda, Lion King and Inception) i seriously don´t know what the soundtrack may or may not sound like but i hope is something special and similar to James Horner´s score like a combination of Man of Steel and maybe intimate like The last samurai but joyfull like The Simpsons , i seriously don´t know

 

[Vid Electricz]

???

Most of the pics we've seen have been Peter/Gwen/MJ in fall/winter clothing. Also, there were those pics of the charred footsteps (presumably Dillons) in the snow, as well as Spidey dressed in a hat & scarf...

The only scene that seems to take place in the spring/summer is the graduation scene, which will be early on in the film.
