KAPOW '12: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN Footage Recap

I can't wait for this movie!!!

This is starting to sound awesome ! In appreciation for this new film, I have made a trailer to it, using the 90's Spider-Man theme. Sit back and let the nostalgia kick in !

ITS GOING BE TO BE A GOOD MOVIE!

This will be better than raimis,just the ''rain drop keep falling on my head'' and the emo dancing scene put me of liking the 2 and 3 alot,I saw the trailer for it seeing avengers in 3d and it looks great in 3d

can't wait to see this,i can see this being another billion dollar movie for marvel/sony.

And that is a cool vid Phoenix.

They were showing Spider-man 3 on TV the other day....GARBAGE! PURE GARBAGE! I going to forget those movies ever existed

Thanks! Articles like this make me feel better about how my favorite superhero is being handled.

Did any scene expand on his sense of humor? I want to know if the movie will make me laugh (not in a tongue in cheek way). That was SERIOUSLY lacking in the last 3 movies.

Aw yeah, this is gonna be awesome, heck it might be better than the 2002 film.

HELL YES!!! Lets here some Spiderman love. One of the coolest, and most unique superheroes ever. My childhood favorite, and this version looks awesome slinging around. (No, I am not a studio plant, asswipes)

@Ashes2Phoenix: Awesome!

@ashes2phoenix:amazing vid

I don't care how good the 3D is, I will never see a movie in 3D again. It is and always will be a gimmick.

Every time they release a new CGI bit from this movie, people jump at the bait just like they want. And some of the CGI os Spidey swinging does look good. But, every extended clip cant go for long with out looking bad. Sony very skillfully tries to hide the problems by cutting in and out like with the kid is the car made out of some very flammable metal and fire thats not all that hot. We see great looking aerial shots of Spidey swinging over what looks to be NYC, with pretty Schumacher lights that make me nauseous. But then he lands on very amateur set pieces like the top of the bridge. This movie looks like the next Green Lantern.

You know that sinking feeling in your stomach right when you start to go down a huge hill on a roller coaster?

I got that feeling a couple times in the trailer due to the 3D web slinging. it was awesome.

I can honestly say this will be the BEST COMIC BOOK MOVIE SINCE AVENGERS! lol

swings like spidey

talks like spidey

looks like a basketball

The more I think about Raimi's Spider-Man films, the more I dislike them. I can't wait for this reboot.

@Captain Obvious:
I somewhat agree with that sentiment. The problem I think, is that thus far directors haven’t made the depth of the 3D deep enough. I feel as though I’m paying extra for an effect that is way too muted.

Lately however I’ve read articles where both Marc Webb and Ridley Scott talk about playing with the depth perception of the film. Apparently the directors can control the level of depth that they seek to create. I didn’t know that, I thought it there was just one setting and you had to make sure that everything lined up correctly. I was wrong. But anyway, that’s one thing that does have me intrigued, because there have been a few reports now that seem to indicate Marc Webb is using an increased level of depth we haven’t yet seen used in our modern 3D movies.

I disagree that 3D is nothing more than a gimmick though. Just as rhetorical devices are tools that are used to create and improve a piece of literature, 3D is simply another tool that filmmakers can use to create and improve films. Its potential for artistic use is inherent, whether or not it’s realized by a director or not. I think about movies like Avengers, whose 3D was totally unnecessary (I still enjoyed the film), and then I think about Cameron’s Avatar. Avatar’s 3D didn’t impress me like I’d hoped it would, but I think it’s clear that Cameron was trying to create the ultimate cinematic experience. There, his use of 3d was an artistic choice, not a gimmick. I think this is evidenced by the fact that the man spent years studying and developing the technology to make that movie possible. In conclusion, 3D is not just a gimmick. It’s just used as one more times than not.

THIS MOVIE IS GOIN TO BE BANANAS. WATCH, WATCH ,WATCH!!

Since the moment I saw the 2nd trailer I have said to myself that this film will be the unexpected gem of this summer.

And the CG looks a bit dodgy in some scenes, but this is expected, I remember how terrible the CG for the previous Spider-Man flicks were in the trailers. I'm not sure if this is a Sony thing or what, but they'll shape it up. Spider-Man 3 had terrible CG in the previews, it was awful lol..

People are so quick to denounce that film, but I feel it will be a sleeper hit, and yes, I'm a little biased. Come at me bro.

I really want Cameron to take a huge dose of humility by watching some comic books films surpass his oh-so-mighty Avatar and Titanic crap. I hope TDKR, Avengers, and TASM all become the top three films of all time.

One will be a franchise that Cameron lost and is now done by an "indy" director. Another will be done by a guy who's been mistreated by studios more than once. The third will be a director that is trying hold on to the good old days of film making rather than following the stupid fads that the studios are trying to shove down our throats.

Maybe then films like Battleship or Avatar 2 will be surpassed by film makers that actually give a damn about story, substance, and audiences.

Symbolically, superheroes will set a new standard for blockbusters and save us from half assed action flicks.
