Sony Pictures is currently in the middle of a worldwide orgy of webs and flash bulbs, as a new trailer and teasers for The Amazing Spider-Man were debuted at events in major cities all around the world. I’m going to assume that my invite was lost in the mail, but other more fortunate people were able to see the debut of a brand new 3D trailer that will be showing before the new 3D version of Star Wars: Episode 1 this weekend.
The 3D trailer won’t be available online until Wednesday, so take off those 3D glasses before someone points out how stupid you look. In the meantime, a 2D trailer was released in the wee hours of the morning and it reveals a lot more about the film, like how scary the Lizard looks and whether or not Denis Leary can tackle playing a New York City cop after years of playing a fireman. That guy’s got some serious range.

I’m calling shenanigans. I already know the origin already, dammit. At the very least the first 45 minutes is going to be retread garbage. Shoulda done what Incredible Hulk did and get it done in the opening credits.
Martin Sheen looks nothing like the guy on all the bags of rice in my cupboard. He’s not even black!
Denis Leary also played a cop in “The Job.” I know you were being sarcastic anyway, but I thought it was funny that it really is all he does.
He was also a cop in The Thomas Crown Affair.
Hey now, he plays thieves too (Two If By Sea, The Ref, his first two stand-up specials).
I’m glad he’s returning to his “Asshole Father-figure” roots. I haven’t seen that side of him since “The Sandlot”… or “Rescue Me”… or any of the other projects you’ve listed above…
He was also in that one movie where they drive around in an RV and he’s a bad guy in the projects and have you ever seen money WITHOUT blood on it and doo doo doo doooo. Yeah, I liked that movie.
*COFFEE NOW!
STAY OFF OF REGINALD VELJOHNSON’S TURF, LEARY.
Also played a cop in “Who Da Man.”
No, you cannot have a donut!
Does Marvel have a clause in the contract that states, beyond everything else, that Spider-Man must shout “WOOOO!!” when he first goes web slinging through the city?
Come on…like you wouldn’t?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen viewers of Star Wars: Episode 1 referred to as “fortunate” before.
Two things: One, it sounds like Scarfield stole Shia LaBeouf’s New Yawk accent. Two, it looks like they made Emma Stone’s boobs big, which is really all I’ve ever wanted.
I’m a big fan of Mary Jane in the comics, but I’m also a big fan of Emma Stone’s boobs, so this movie has me a bit conflicted.
To be fair, Leary did play a cop on one season of ‘The Job’. If they asked him to play a lawyer or anyone with redeeming human qualities, however, we might have a problem.
I think they should’ve saved “unitard” for the second movie when Spidey fights a mongoloid with a vibrator superglued to his forehead. A Shocker/Rhino hybrid, if you will.
I wish they called him Yiderman.
uhh, haven’t we seen this movie already?
You mean the hero who faces opposition from legal figures because no one really understands his complex relationship with the villain, despite his efforts to help the city? Truly a dark night in America if this idea is charged as unoriginal!
I think he means Spider-Man (2002)
I would have dismissive wanked, but I’m out of web fluid.
Am I the only person who finds Andrew Garfield’s voice insufferable?
It’s like makes everything he says seem like he’s about to cry.
Needs more Emma Stone. A stoned Emma Stone rather.
I welcome any chance for Venom to be the villain he truly is seeing as they are undoubtedly going to make more of these. God I hate Sam Raimi.
The Spiderman reboot reboot which undoubtedly got greenlit this morning should try having dude actually keep his mask on for the whole fucking move.
/One look at Scarfield’s neck and I thought he was playing Mr. Fantastic.
Is Andrew Garfield also Jean-Ralphio?
I knew somethig was up, my spidey senses were tingling (I got a raging boner).
“GOD, i want andrew scarfield’s hair!” – things no one has ever said
“let’s go see amazing spiderman!” – someone not getting a second date
