Trailer Musings: ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ Full Trailer
Sony waited just one day after the barrage of trailers during the Super Bowl to unleash the next full trailer for this summers The Amazing Spider-Man, and it's everything I expected and more after the set-up from the teaser a few months back. Hit the jump and take a look!
This really strikes me as a Batman Begins style look at Spider-Man, and I'm all for it. I was incredibly worried about this franchise after the horribleness that was Spider-Man 3, not to mention they were rebooting it with the origin story again after just 10 years since the original Spider-Man.
I really like the edginess they've given to Spidey...He's much more antagonistic than Tobey Maguire's take on the character, which is probably a good way to distinguish it as a new story. There are unfinished effects throughout the trailer, though I didn't really notice anything that looked that out of place until I saw freeze frames on the movie's Facebook page. I've been waiting for the Lizard to show up, since all Sam Raimi managed to do was tease us about him for 3 movies...I'm also incredibly excited to see some 3-D webslinging in this thing after a couple of brief new scenes that seem clearly shot for 3-D purposes (if you know me, there isn't much that I'm excited about as far as 3-D is concerned).
Let me know your thoughts in the comments! Can't wait for this one.
The Amazing Spider-Man releases on July 3rd, 2012.
