Re: The Amazing Spider-Man
I like the suit. (obviously not as much as the classic, but it's different and new, and i dig different and new)
Q&A FROM SDCC
Q: The trailer and the Spider-Man point of view...
Webb: Here's the thing, because we were shooting this in 3D I wanted to conceive of certain things very specifically for 3D. There's an experiential component to 3D that I think is really, really fantastic. We're experimenting with generating that point of view so that you feel what Peter Parker feels. You feel what Spider-Man feels when he's jumping over the buildings and over the streets and that sort of thing, but we made a very, and Andrew had to pay the price for this, conscious effort to ground the stunts. We had an incredible stunt team put together. We built this whole rig, hundreds of feet long under Riverside Drive in Harlem and we swung a man through traffic, down the street and then Andy Armstrong also built a car rig with a series of wires that was incredibly complicated and really a beautiful contraption to help do those FX practically. I felt that was something really exciting and exhilarating, not to mention an incredible level of acrobatics.
Q: Is there any talk of doing a crossover with Spider-Man and other Marvel properties even though the rights are at different studios?
Arad: No. I think that obviously in the comics the team-ups and the mix-ups, they're a way to keep the publishing going, but since Spider-Man has a huge universe of it's own, so many foes and friends and great stuff about Peter and his parents and Gwen, it's not something that we're thinking about because we have so much more to tell. That's why we made this particular movie.
Q: In the comics Spidey always has a sense of humor while fighting his adversaries, making quips during the fights. Will we see that in the film?
Tolmach: Yes.
Webb: Yes.
Garfield: They hired a comedic actor to wear the suit. He wrote some jokes.
Webb: A funny guy.
Garfield: He's brilliant. Judd Apatow is in the suit.
Q: There have been many different incarnations of Spider-Man in the comics. What was your favorite and who's your favorite Spider-Man villain?
Garfield: Yeah. I love the majority of the incarnations - actually, all the incarnations. 'Torment' is one of my favorites, and 'The Fallen' series was one of my favorites. I love 'The Ultimate' series. I read 'The Ultimate' series doing research for the film. That was a really great source for how I wanted Spidey's body to look. I love the artwork in that and how lithe and skinny he was because I'm skinny. I don't know if you can see it, but I am skinny. I love the idea of a skinny teenage kid beating the crap out of huge guys. That's always been a dream of mine that I wanted to personally fulfill, and what better way to do it and give other skinny kids in the audience a sense of achievement as well.

Re: The Amazing Spider-Man
Guy makes a perfect Spidey. Emma is hot.
The suit is still fugly. Spider looks like a crustacean. Suit gas a grid pattern, not a spider web.
Still really looking forward to the movie.

Re: The Amazing Spider-Man
The one issue I have with the Raimi Spidey movies: they would find ways for Peter to take off his spidey mask and the worst times.....he was constantly exposing his secret identity.....hope this movie is more subtle with it
I am over the suit.....head part is all Spiderman, so I can deal with the rest......typical hollywood production: make changes to make 'their own' regardless if the change is stupid

Re: The Amazing Spider-Man
I'm sure it will be great in the context of a state of the art cinema with a gargantuan screen designed to immerse you, but what about when I buy the Blu ray and play it on my 46 inch (non-3D) TV? Odds are those scenes are going to irk me.
