Feb 7 12 6:50 PM More My Recent Posts	Captain Stacy is played by DENNIS LEARY? I'll admit there's cool stuff in this trailer, but why Sony simply can't stick with the original origin story is beyond me. I always preferred the Romita Lizard to the Ditko snub-nosed version, and after Jurassic Park, why not go all out here? The kid is good as Parker, but the girl from Superbad as GWEN STACY? What about Liza Allen and Betty Brant? I'm showing my age.

Granted, everybody has their fave Liz version, and I don't mean Allen, and central casting may have made some slight errors in judgment ( Parker's got a Conan hair thang goin' on ), but it looks promising. Could vie Raimi's Second as best Spider-movie. "Lord I love Spring! The birds, the fair weather, the new flowers. It doesn't get any better than this. HOLY CRAP! what's THAT?!?"

Mar 23 12 2:59 PM More My Recent Posts	The Lizard was my favorite Spider-Man villain and looks HHHHHHOOOOOORRRRRRRRRIIIIIBBBBBLLLLLEEEEEE here! Just awful. And don't tell me that's the Ditko Lizard because the short-snout design could have been made to work better. A lot better. And put some clothes on for god's sake. Yeah, I'm over forty and grumpy over a comic book character. Gimme the Romita version and I'm a happy guy. They just can't figure out my favorite super-hero. Gaaaaaaahhhh.

Mar 23 12 4:17 PM More My Recent Posts	I think the problem with The Lizard is that if you're faithful to the comics, the character will come across as a hokey throwback to 1950's monsters, and be laughed off the screen.

I dunno...giant lizard monsters are still awesome in my book. And to be honest, the hokey Jet Jaguar-ish Green Goblin didn't affect the box office of the 2002 Spidey.

Apr 17 12 4:34 AM More My Recent Posts	Saw a somewhat similar trailer in the theatre with HUNGER GAMES this past weekend. It looks absolutely wonderful on the big screen. The casting feels good too -- teenage daughter sez Parker looks just the appropriate amount of geeky, and Dennis Leary seems tailor made for the part, believe it or not. I know they radically revamped the suit, but it looks spot on right in motion. The darker eye lenses work for me. And I love the way the web-spinners actually spin! And yes, the American trailer does end with the hero jumping from a great height -- so how can it not be good?

Apr 18 12 12:19 PM More My Recent Posts	Hee - all the hate for Liz '12! Funny ... I always preferred Ditko's model over Romita's. Somehow more thoughtful than just anudder CrocMan. More pathetic looking was Ditko's, kinda reminiscent of Kirby's The Thing. "Lord I love Spring! The birds, the fair weather, the new flowers. It doesn't get any better than this. HOLY CRAP! what's THAT?!?"

May 14 12 11:19 AM More My Recent Posts	I watched THE HELP this past weekend and came away impressed by all of the performances. Come to find out one of the main leads plays Gwen Stacy in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Now I'm extra excited to see it. Coincidentally, another main lead played the previous Gwen Stacy in SPIDER-MAN 3. Weird. Both were excellent in THE HELP, by the way.

May 14 12 1:38 PM More My Recent Posts	I saw the trailer and it doesn't look bad. It definitely looks darker in tone than the previous films. I assume we will see Uncle Ben bite it again but there's nothing in the trailer to suggest it. It's the crux of the Spider-man mythos so you can't change that. If they do, there is nothing in the film that could redeem it. I don't like a lot of the casting. I can't buy the Flying Nun/Gidget as Aunt May and I loathe Dennis Leary in general, so I'm not happy he's in it.

May 14 12 4:06 PM More My Recent Posts	According to insiders at Superhero Hype and Badass Digest, Sony executives loath THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Considering how they interfered with Raimi on Spidey III, I don't know if that's a bad thing or not!

May 14 12 4:11 PM More My Recent Posts	<< Hal: Never seen Zombieland or The Village ? << I'm afraid I haven't, but ZOMBIELAND is on my must see list for sure. Woody was pretty goody in HUNGER GAMES. My kid seemed to know who Emma Stone is. Now Dennis Leary I do know. I think he'll make a great Captain Stacy. To paraphrase theatrical agent Weston, everything I see about this makes me like it more!
