Well seeing as I'm pretty freaking excited about the reboot of Spider-Man, I felt I should share with you guys the first official image of Andrew in the costume.
How do you guys like it (I think it's pretty awesome)? How do you feel about the reboot?
Oh yeah, I know it has nothing to do with minis, it just saves a few clicks. I know, I know...I'm extremely lazy! :P
They say it's because Sam Raimi backed out, because he didn't think he would meet the May deadline.
I must say, I'm kind of glad it happened that way. In my opinion, Raimi was sending Spidey's good name down the toilet. All 3 movies were bland at best in my opinion. And the whole real world thing Raimi was going for, just wasn't working out in my opinion. A nerd got bite by a radioactive spider for crying out loud, there's nothing real world about that!

I loved Spider-Man 2. 3 was a disaster and the first was ok.
And I really don't get the point of rebooting Spider-Man. It's tiring.
And from the looks of it, Spider-Man might follow the Nolan Batman path. No way. A serious/dark Spider-Man is not Spider-Man. At all.
I hear they are going for the Nolan type film. I don't know, since the reboot is set during Peter's high school years, it may actually work. High school can be a dark and twisted place for people who don't fit in, like Peter Parker. Hell, it's not all that great for the ones that do fit in. Plus, you wouldn't need a superhereo if your city wasn't facing grim times.
I did feel the Hulk reboot was unnecesary, Hulk, was an interesting take on the character, and was much more engaging than, The Incredible Hulk. But the Spider-Man films just felt tacky to me. It was like even though it was Spider-Man, Sam Raimi had created his own mythology, a new hero, and slapped some fan favorites over it. It's kind of hard for me to explain.
The one thing I'm not looking forward to, the video game tie in. That's only because they usually suck alot of ass. Though Spider-Man 2: The Game was pretty good because of the free roam. It started sucking when those damned kids kept losing their stupid balloons!
This is the first I've heard of a Spidey reboot. PSPminis.com is the hot movie tip site!
I love this direction - they've got someone who looks awkward and geeky, who also doesn't act like a pushover with 5 yr old's face. Costume looks good too.
Bring it on.

HATE IT.
Shouldn't reboot spidey movies. Not this soon anyway.
Loved the original trilogy though.
Looking forward to THOR this year. And Iron Man movies are awesome too.
I liked Marvel movies compared to DC movies (i think the Batman movies are meh at best - totally over-rated). Yeah that's right.
Here's the teaser trailer.
I like how at the end it shows Spider-Man running across roof tops in 1st person. Not sure if that'll make it into the movie though. I'm firmly against 3D, but if your going to force it on people, you might as well do something cool with it.

I don't see why the costume needed to be tweaked like that. I don't like the Iron Fist slippers either.
Hopefully in these movies they get his sense of humor right. Part of what was cool about Spidey is that Peter gets to make a second first impression. Let Peter be shy and quiet, let Spidey be the yammering smart ass.
Also Stan Lee's cameo for this one sounds funny.
I really hope this turns out to be good. Other than the 2004 version of The Punisher, I've yet to truely like a Marvel film. I haven't seen X-Men First Class yet, so I can't speak on that one. I don't even want to see Thor or Captain America.
I wonder if the font for this film will be used as the font for the PlayStation 4 logo?

Speaking of Dragon Ball Evolution, what killed that movie for me was the lack of Krillin. I can understand not having Vegeeta, since he didn\'t appear until the z series, but Krillin was always a memorable member of the original series to me, & I think that his inclusion was very possible in the movie. Suppose the writers just got lazy & didn\'t want to write him a part. Shame.
I went to see The Amazing Spider-Man yesterday and quite enjoyed it. It was better than the other three movies in my opinion. The only thing that was missing was Uncle Ben's quote; "With great power comes great responsibility". As my friend pointed out that's "The main Spider-Man quote!" It's like Star Wars without Vader saying; "Luke, I am your father". *Shakes head

I was going to see it with a couple of friends last Tuesday, but the f*****g thing was sold out right up to 10pm, so we went to see 'Chernobyl Diaries' instead... big mistake, avoid this movie like the plague. :(
@Ofailss
Except when I watched The Amazing Spider-Man Unlce Ben said something about responsibility. But not The quote!
@thumbbandit
My theatre here is spared from that movie. ;-)
