Amazing Spidey Teaser Leaks!

I'll admit, that looked better than I expected.

Quick thoughts

. Seeing his parents is neat, never got touched on in Rami films
. Gwen working in a lab is nice. People forget she was a science fan like Peter was.
. With the glasses he looks like Peter. Take them off and he doesn't.
. Origin? Again? Doh.
. Bit in the back of the neck. Minor and doesn't impact the origin in anyway but I don't like that.
. Him running down the alley is way too reminiscent of the first movie
. Lizard could be cool if they divert from the story of turning everybody into Lizards or controlling the reptile world
. In general, I hate when films doing this. Using first person view. The film still has a year to go and this isn't great quality
footage but the rooftops he's on look like video-game graphics. Not cool.
. Suit looks even worse in the mirror reflection.

I was half expecting the trailer to convince me that YES, they were going to prove us wrong, and produce a good looking film...

Then I saw it, and I couldn't believe my eyes. I watched it twice, just to make sure...
Yep, still there.
Yes, Spidey's rocking his silver ballet slippers, in full view.

I usually try to restrain my language on this site, but there's just no other way to say it:
Fuck this movie.

To me, this looks like the film that the original Spider-Man should have been. Not that I don't like the Raimi trilogy, I just prefer the approach that they seem to be taking with this. Not a fan of the 1st person viewpoint so hopefully that will be used sparingly. I love Peter's parents appearing and Gwen looks so far to be a more convincing love interest than MJ ever was. Not terribly happy with the origin seeming to be revisited but I can't see them spending that long on it. Cautiously optimistic over here.

Greatly enjoyed the actual live action footage, and remain very optimistic for Garfield's performance as Peter. The CGI on the Spidey's-eye-view sequence looked, um, a bit ropey. Hopefully this won't be a decent film ruined by not spending enough on effects.

I actually like that first person bit--like someone else said, the scene is slightly reminiscent of Tobey jumping on the rooftops in his first movie, so having a different perspective and using that to go up some unique angles not only makes it it's own scene, but actually makes it better.

Like someone said--this looks like the Spider-Man movie I've been waiting for. Really looking forward to this.

Well, it's gone already ...

. Gwen working in a lab is nice. People forget she was a science fan like Peter was.

**sits back and waits for Bertone**

. In general, I hate when films doing this. Using first person view. The film still has a year to go and this isn't great quality
footage but the rooftops he's on look like video-game graphics. Not cool.

It's also worth pointing out that first-person quick views are such a Raimi staple that it's actually referred to as "Raimi Vision." Way to distance yourselves from the last guy, Webb.

Ahhhh!
I was worrying about the Avengers trailer so much I forgot to watch this.

Thanks man. I gotta say that the first person and Emma Stone were the only cool things about the preview. The rest of it was basically me thinking I've seen his origin done well before why do we need it redone so soon? The parent thing might be interesting if it actually adds anything other than just showing us he is an orphan.

I'd be interested to see how his parents die in the film. They might write it off as just a plane crash as I don't think they can include mention to Red Skull considering he's in the Captain America movie.

That was pretty lousy. Then again, I never liked the trailers for the original film either.

The good news about this teaser trailer is that, on a technical standpoint, it's put together and edited very well. It does an excellent job at establishing the character of Peter Parker, showing him to be a shy, awkward, and very lonely young man who still trying to cope with feeling abandoned by his parents after their death.

But the tone of the trailer? It's moody, it's brooding, and takes itself way too seriously. Until you get to point-of-view sequence of Spidey jumping and swinging over the city accompanied by a swelling orchestral score, this doesn't come across like it's film about Spider-Man; this comes across like David Cronenberg's The Fly as imagined and written by Stephanie Meyer--a teenage horror flick (in this case body horror) in which the lead is yet another angst-ridden, insecure, passive-aggressive loner.

Granted, I get that Spider-Man does have elements of teenage angst and isolation in it's roots, but it also conveys a sense of fun. And it's that sense of fun that this trailer sorely lacks and I'm afraid will not be in the final product.

I freaked out when I saw the trailer for the first one! I honestly can't remember what movie I saw it in front of was (I THINK it was Jurassic Park 3), but I remember gripping the arms of the chair in excitement, and bouncing out of my seat when it was over. It was the infamous WTC trailer, which got pulled after 9/11.

In my opinion, that was the greatest Spider-Man movie trailer EVER. I had NEVER been so excited over a trailer in my life!
The Avengers is the only comic book movie trailer to come close to that level of "Hell, YEAH!"

As for this trailer? It did nothing but piss me off.
The silver booties, the Twilight-esque mood, the first-person wall-crawling (God help anyone with motion sickness if they see this thing! I would NOT want to be the theater usher who has to clean THAT up! )
Yeah, I won't be giving this one any of my money.
