THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN Trailer Spins a Different Spidey Story

There’s some uproar on the web since the latest and longest and most revealing trailer for THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN went live, and I have to say, I completely disagree with the people pooping their drawers over the change in the origin of Peter Parker’s superpowers. As you will see in the trailer below – ahem, spoiler alert – we can pretty well surmise that a bite from a radioactive spider doesn’t give Mr. Parker his web-slinging abilities, but rather the

The Amazing Spider-Man Teaser Trailer > The Dark Knight Rises Teaser Trailer

The Dark Knight Rises teaser trailer debuted in front of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 last Friday and popped up officially online a few days thereafter, and never in my wildest imagination did I think Spider-Man would beat out Batman for my love and attention this week, but boyhowdy, director Marc Webb, the man behind (500) Days of Summer, has fashioned a trailer that is stylistic, brooding, intriguing and makes his re-boot, The Amazing Spider-Man, easily

The Amazing Spider-Man is Another Reason to Smile at 2012

With the looming Apocalypse/Armageddon in 2012, some folks might find it a tad bit difficult to feel sunny about the future. But take it from me, there is plenty to be excited about for 2012. I mentioned The Dark Knight Rises as my own personal 2012 must-see, but we can’t forget the other movies coming down the pike (The Hunger Games and the Superman reboot, Man of Steel), particularly The Amazing Spider-Man. And, lucky for us, Entertainment Weekly just dropped a whole

I am Officially Pumped for The Amazing Spider-Man

Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man franchise died the minute Spider-Man 3 hit theaters. Instead of pushing forward with a fourth Raimi-helmed Spider-Man movie, the studio did the wise thing and went for the re-boot. When Columbia Pictures announced the hiring of (500) Days of Summer director, Marc Webb, my faith in the re-boot was bolstered. When Andrew Garfield was announced as the new Peter Parker/Spider-Man, I started to question my faith. However, after seeing Garfield in both Never Let Me Go and

Andrew Garfield’s Spidey Suit is Sparkly

I’ve never been head-over-heels for Spider-Man as a comic book character or as depicted in the Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy (I think Spider-Man 2 is the best of the three), and I definitely wasn’t doing cartwheels when a re-boot of the franchise was announced. However, two things changed my mind: First, Marc Webb, the director behind (500) Days of Summer, as the helmsman does nothing but intrigue and inspire confidence in the re-boot’s success. And second, casting Andrew Garfield as

Super Cute Emma Stone is Gwen Stacy in Spiderman Reboot

I realize that Emma Stone (Easy A, Zombieland, Superbad) is only 21 and I was learning how to drive when her mom was powdering her baby booty, but man oh man is she a full-blown hottie. Yes, she’s gorgeous, but her sense of humor and personality make her hot. I’d imagine she’s the type of girl who would wolf down pizza and beer with you at 1AM and then stay up with you until the wee hours of the morning

Christoph Waltz in Spider-Man 4 as Villain? Please oh Please!

After the travesty that was Spider-Man 3, I wasn’t really pining for any more Sam Raimi involvement. Like Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher with the pre-Christopher Nolan Batman films, the style and methods he brought to the franchise got old and moldy. It was time for new blood. As it stands today, the reboot of Spider-Man, due in 2012, has a director (Marc Webb) and Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield), but no villain as of yet. According to rumblings on the
