New Amazing Spider-Man Trailer

[BurningDoom]

I was kind of on the fence about this movie, but after this trailer, I'm definitely gonna go see it in the theater:

the old one from the mid 2000s is better.

This movie isn't out yet, so how can you compare them?

Looks pretty awesome to me

Gah, ok, ok, the trailer was awesome. I really wasn't excited about this before, but it has given me faith in this movie, and I can admit that I'm now pretty pumped to see it.

That costume still sucks though.

After reading this, consider me one of the fans who will be annoyed by the major change to his origin:

Getting away from the purely visual, let's see what the dialogue illuminates.

Around the 1:20 mark, Peter says:
My parents left when I was very young.

As opposed to died. Interesting. Not to say he's right, or telling the truth.

Around 1:25, somebody says:
Did you tell the boy about his father?

Is that Norman Osborn? That's one rumour going round. The actor you see is Michael Massee, and he was rumoured to be playing Osborn a very long time ago. Officially, though, he's playing David Lowell, the Osborn employee who transformed and took on the alias Sundown.

At 1:34 Connors says:
If you want the truth about your parents, Peter, come and get it.

It's worth noting that this before he transforms, so he has interactions with Peter about "the secret" fairly early in the narrative.

At 1:44:
There's been a biological attack on New York City.

I'm... not sure I understand The Lizard's plan. What good will this do him?

And then, at 1:59, I believe that's The Lizard we can hear speaking. Perhaps. He says:
Do you think what happened to you, Peter, was an accident? Do you have any idea what you really are?

It seems to me that Webb and co. have changed Spider-Man's origins considerably. To my eyes and ears it seems like there's something latent in his DNA, possibly put there by his father, and it is simply activated within the time frame of this story - probably by a spider bite, maybe not.

I've got a feeling that switch isn't going to go down terribly well with a lot of fans.

thats what trailers are for.

to get the masses talking.

Clips and visuals to make us say hmm,WTF and wow!

This spiderman also has to differ from the first trilogy.

We are still going to watch it, no matter how it comes out.

So Spider-Man talks like Michael Cera?

Amazing looks over the top dumb, and I have about zero interest in it.

[scarper]

This definitely appears to be a bit more faithful to the comic books than the last trilogy did. But 60's Animated Spiderman is still way better.
