THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN trailer is up...

Hey folks, Harry here...  I'm now going to think of THE LIZARD as just being a hybrid of THE LIZARD and SCORPION...  because that gorgeous shot of Spidey and the Lizard on top of the building in the rain...  It looks too good to instantly hate on due to no labcoat and the tragic loss of Aligator jaws.   I like the look of this.   I'm not gaga.   I'm not completely over the moon in love with it.   I am a bit annoyed at the costume.  But man, hearing Spidey trash talk?  Big fan.   I also love the look of the film.   I love that Peter Parker isn't just a kid that wandered into a radioactive spider...  but also happens to be brilliant - and his brilliance and willingness to work with scientists that have ethical boundary issues happens to be one of my favorite types of Peter Parker / Spider-Man stories.   In particular, that has always been my favorite tie between Peter and Doc Connors.   I also kind of love Spidey tagging buildings...  because he did that too.  This feels more completely Spidey.   I mean, Look at Gwen Stacy!   Sigh.  I really like this trailer.   But there's still a couple of design issues that drive me nuts - cuz it wouldn't have cost a dime more to get THE LIZARD perfect...   but the design is doing stuff I think is cool - so let's see how it works dramatically in the film.   I am one of them nerds that actually does want and craves the lab coat.   

Here ya go: 



 

After watching this about 12 more times, I've decided that if they just add wavy Spidey Sense lines out of his head about 5 times in the movie, that Lizard snoutless wouldn't bug me too much.
