The Amazing Spider-Man The Amazing Spider-Man General Discussion & Speculation Thread - - - - Part

Sounds like the sizzle reel I saw at the NYC sneak peek back in February.

I don't know if this has been mentioned but the film has been rated. PG13 of course, but for sequences of violence and action. I was hoping it would also be for some scary images.

Since we probably won't be getting one here tonight, here's a link to a description from someone on imdb:

Nice to get some details though I had to take his criticisms with a grain of salt since he claimed MIB3 was easily better than MIB1.

You have seen MIB 3? Or are you just assuming that it sucks

I never said it sucked but the vast majority of critics say it didn't match the first and many others said it was trash.

So I have a hard time believing it topped the first one which was one of greatest sci-fi comedies.

i actually been hearing good things about it which is very surprising to be honest.. wasn't even on my radar, but might have to check it out..

The 6 min preview was AWESOME in 3D. Some of the best 3D I've seen. Spidey swinging in that format is just something else.

However, nothing new to report in terms of scenes shown. The Ben/Peter convo and the Gwen/Peter convo from the school are there. Cute scene. So is Gwens dialogue about her father strapping his gun and badge. I never got to see those before so glad I could. Also got slightly extended version of car thief scene.

LOTS of snippets of action. Loved it, and didn't spoil much either.

 

[TheWallCrawler]

Oh ok. Am I the only one that finds the 2nd MIB film to be just as good as the first? I haven't seen that in a long time so I might have a different view on it now, but still

 

[Goliath]

So when will this be available for us to see online?

All the reviewers I respect like Jeremy Jahns and Chris Stuckman didn't like it, so I don't know, but I never judge a film completely before I see it.
With the exception of Green Lantern when we got the teaser trailer

It was entertaining enough IMO. Would I buy it? Don't think so. But worth the price of a matinee ticket. No point in seeing this one in 3D. Nothing special there except two shots or so.

That read exactly like the sizzle reel footage recap I remember reading. Was post simply a cut and paste?

Me? No lol. Not a cut n paste. Unfortunately nothing new shown but I hadn't seen any of those scenes so loved it personally. Both the friends I went to the movie with (neither a Spidey fan and one was a mild skeptic even after all these trailers) were blown away by it.

Nah, the linked post. For some reason the majority reads like a cut n paste job.

 

[ITheSymbioteI]

I see. Could very well be. It was pretty much the sizzle reel with all finished footage. Someones gunna probably record and post it online in the next 24 hours.

 

[TheWallCrawler]

I wonder if all the viral Oscorp Industries stuff is gonna end up showing the first good profile pic of the lizard

 

[TheWallCrawler]

btw:

they certainly tweaked the look. That's why all the promo stuff looks so off compared to the final version

 

[Spider-Ranger]

We just got our first german tv spot, with a new glimpse at the Lizard!!

Seems like he does have a bit of a snout here:

this is new to me:

 

[Streetlight]

The tail bit in that German spot was also pretty cool. Can't wait to see him in the movie

The final version is shaping up to be a lot better than I anticipated that's for sure. I'm pleasently suprised by how good it looks.

I'm saying it right now. Forgive the hyperbole but after that six minute sizzle reel in front of MIB 3, I just don't see any other way to put this; the Amazing Spider-Man will be the best Marvel film this summer.

In 3D, the reel is unlike anything I've ever witnessed in 3D and for the record, MIB 3 was very, very impressive in 3D. But Amazing is something on a different level.

Visually, it's off the charts spectacular. Garfield and Stone are going to break hearts in this film with their story, their chemistry.

I was planning on skipping the 3D for this but not after some of the ridiculously awesome swinging shots of Spider-Man I saw in 3D last night.

It's going to be mandatory viewing to see this thing in 3D in the theatre. And because of how well the 3D is used, this thing is going to make more money than people think. Word of mouth with spread and this thing is going to make bank, internationally. I have no worries about that anymore.

Amazing is coming on July 3rd.

 

[SpiderMarvelite]

holy epic balls.

 

[J.Howlett]

It feels bigger and yet more personal than the Avengers...and it only has one hero. Visually, there's no comparison between the two. Amazing looks like a real, cinematic experience.

 

[TheWallCrawler]

holy epic balls.

indeed

those new screen caps of the lizard look VERY impressive, I'm now officially sold on the look

 

[SpiderMarvelite]

HES LOOK IS BRILLIANT.
Anyone who cant accept this is blind or dumb.

Serious he has a small snout and to top it a goddamn Lab Coat now please haters shut up.

Doesnt matter theyll be lost in the crowd of this films lovers
