The Amazing Spider-Man The Official ASM THEATRICAL TRAILER Thread!

No one dreams about naked women anymore...?

Don't worry, I've got that covered.

 

[First Avenger]

^Yeah,It's not like we dream the same things over and over again.

Never thought I'd see the day.

That picture is making me geek out. Spidey stalking lizard in the sewers. Yes!

That quote in your post got really messed up.

I think with the next trailer, they're going to have to blow their wad. At one point, I said that they should wait until the third trailer. But now, I think they need to shut faces with one single trailer. What do I mean by this, I mean they need to show the emotional part, the best acting that the film has to offer (including action and drama scenes). And they need to show a good part of (but not necessary all) of The Lizard. Cool web-slinging scenes. Perhaps a scene with one quip (just one). A swift Spidey/Lizard encounter. Two pieces of their best action sequences, to let people know that Marc Webb can handle big action scenes...which we still don't know if he can.

 

[VenomSpawn]

I actually agree with that. There's too much doubt about this movie from the GA, and Sony needs to show everyone they mean business. Sony needs to shut up all the naysayers and assure us that we're in for one damn great film.

The mods need to change this thread to the pie thread. It's incorrectly labeled as The Official ASM THEATRICAL TRAILER THREAD!

This.

He's a great director but I hope he is more Raimi than Nolan when it comes to action sequences.

I want some James Cameron style action scenes (namely, Terminator 2 and Aliens). A realistic looking and dramatic approach tailored specifically to each action sequence.

Okay, maybe that's asking for too much.

 

[PSYLENTGuardian]

^ I believe Marc went to James Cameron for some advice, right?

 

[Spiderman6592]

Yes he did. Lots of it actually.

Then I hope the teacher has taught the student well, because James Cameron is a true master at realistic and kinetic looking action sequences.

 

[UltimateWebhead]

Yes he did. Lots of it actually.

As I remember it was for coaching on how to properly film 3D but hopefully JC imparted some action sequence wisdom as well.

Speak the truth (or at least our shared opinion)

 

[Spiderman6592]

Yes he did which is awesome news.

 

[Gamma_Powered_God]

That is awesome news, Cameron knows how to do action right.

 

[Shadowlord X]

Agreed!!!

I hate the modern zeitgeist that scorns the "action movie". It takes real directing skill to be able to do great action sequences that excite, thrill, and have you on the edge of your seat. I think great action is a lot harder to do than melodrama.

I believe because of this zeitgeist that very few current movie directors can really do great action. James Cameron is one of the few who truly excels at it. For all Avatar's 'been there...done that' plot the action in the movie was excellent.

If Marc Webb can give us some truly spectacular action in combination with top notch I-max 3D, then this movie can be truly mindblowing.

 

[ITheSymbioteI]

I think great action is a lot harder to do than drama.

Edited and disagree personally.

True drama, drama that is filled with emotion in every shot, is pretty damn hard to pull off. Because for drama to work, you need to build up the characters, care for them, question judgements, etc etc.

Action scenes can still be fun and engaging without story.

 

[©KAW]

Agreed, and Spider-Man calls for both to be done very well.

 

[Shadowlord X]

I see a lot more directors doing drama well now than doing action well.

 

[©KAW]

They're going to need to know how to do both to pull this film off.
