I wish for the latter

[Spider-Aziz]

I do say so, I say, I say (2 points for the first one to get what I'm hinting on)

That looks like Nic Cage, lol.

 

[Troy_Parker]

That's because it is Nic Cage. xD

HEY! No mentioning of the Ghost Rider IN THIS FORUM!

He's a funny actor

Have they said what year of high school Peter is in? I'm assuming it would be his junior or senior year?

Hmm I'm not sure. I would guess he's in his junior year.

 

[SpaceWay2009]

as long as the style tone of the trailer is good that is all I care about.

I've seen a great trailer and been disappointed with the end product - SM3

I've seen a 'meh' trailer and been blown away with the end product - TDK

so even if the trailer disappoints it's not the end of the world

Well, I certainly hope not. lol But good point, though. A "meh" or disappointing trailer doesn't mean the movie won't be good.

obviously the down side to a 'meh' trailer is it may turn off all the people who were on the fence for this movie.

 

[SpaceWay2009]

^That is true, too. But for me, personally, I would still give a movie a chance even if the trailer wasn't all that good, especially since it's a Spider-Man movie.

Wasn't the TDK trailer "meh," but yet it was a success? But then again, BB was a good movie, so even with the "meh" trailer, people were still interested in the sequel.

Holy junk do we need a trailer.

So I felt like clarifying; a few weeks back I told everyone that my brother had seen an ASM trailer come in to their theater with a big number 2 on it, and he assumed it was trailer #2. Turns out it was just the 3D rendered trailer, hence the 2.

However, he did say that there was an extremely tiny difference, in that the establishing shot of NYC at the beginning of the trailer was different, but nothing else. The rest was business as usual.

Nothing exciting, I know, but maybe, just maybe, since there was a small difference in that trailer, it may mean that Sony is getting ready to release a new one soon. I believe he told me that they were screening that trailer with Underworld, so I'm thinking they may get a new one for Ghost Rider. Of course this is just me speculating, but I don't see it being impossible.

Here's hoping.

Trailer was already confirmed by the director to be released in February.

 

[Marvel Spider]

And it's said by a Starz worker who attended a Sony meeting that the trailer will debut on February 9th.

Haha. No, I really didn't.

Haven't been around here as often lately. Not as much stimulating conversation as there used to be. I'm really only keeping up with this film and Avengers as far as news updates go and nothing on both of those fronts has really hyped me up any. I don't really worry about TDKR because I know no matter what I'm gonna love it to pieces.

This is still pretty much my favorite thread anyway. Avengers has kind of dissolved into a lot of, "Oh, wouldn't it be cool if *insert cool thing from comics* happened?" and I can't really contribute to any of that. Anyways.....

I confess it is time to see a live action depiction of the webshooters. Though I want to see what the **** he makes the adhesive out of.

I read that earlier.

 

[spider-neil]

the webshooters are definately shorthand with regards to showing how smart peter is.

The great debate?

They'll probably go with the explanation the Ultimate Comics gave where Peter's father had been working on a formula for an adhesive and Peter perfected it.

That's makes more since then Peter just making up off the top of his head like in th regular comics.

At this point I think it's pretty safe to say they will go the Ultimate route.

Glad Bendis and Stan were the voices of reason in this whole thing....

This is my bet. Brings it back to his father as well, as the parents weren't touched upon in the previous series. Webb and company are highlighting that angle as a reason why the reboot will be different. In any case the webbing will be explained, just as Raimi did so with his version.
