The Less-than-Amazing Amazing Spider-Man Trailer, Now in Non-Bootleg Form
In case you didn’t get to see the leaked Amazing Spider-Man trailer before it was whisked away from the internet yesterday, here it is in official and significantly more viewable form. Now you can see in perfect clarity how the trailer is part indie drama, part remake of Raimi’s first Spider-man film, and part Mirror’s Edge sequence. Whee. I’m trying to keep an open mind about the flick, but this trailer makes it look no fun at all, and Spider-Man should be the most fun Marvel movie, don’t you think? (Via /Film)
