That first person bit looked pretty... Bad. Like, out of a videogame, clearly CG.

While what Lumenskir said is true, that another studio has the rights, they are making his parents agents of SHIELD for some reason (I'm pretty sure this wasn't in the comics...if it is it's up there with bad ideas like having Bruce Wayne's dad secretly be alive or how Superman was the last son of Krypton...except for all these Kandorians hanging out over here on this other planet, yo). The reason either being to give a reason for them being dead other than say, a tragic car accident, OR to have Spider-Man eventually fight whoever killed them, or whatever. Or maybe they are still alive or imprisoned somewhere, I dunno.

In any case, I think it's kind of dumb, not only that they are doing the origin story again but then making changes to it to make it take up even more movie time.

I seriously have no idea why they are rebooting this movie series. Just change the actor and have a brief psychedelic dream sequence explaining the origin (ala The Incredible Hulk) and then just come up with an original story starting there. No one needs to see Spidey hanging out in high school again or awkwardly dating Mary Jane or whatever the hell is in store for us.

The whole thing just screams low-budget to me, as well. These actors are complete no-names as far as I can see. Apparently Tobey Macguire would cost too much at this point so they get some complete unknown.

Also also, I hope to dear god the CGI in the trailer was just thrown in cheaply to illustrate to us that we are watching a Spider-Man trailer and not an example of the quality in the film itself, because it looked really cheap and exactly like I was watching the demo for a PS3 video game.

EDIT: By the way, is the Vulture still the villain for this film or did they alter that since last I heard details?

Doesn't look that impressive to be honest.

I'm also finding it hard to care about this one. Rebooting a series that is less than 10 years old, redoing the origin again (don't most people already know how Spidey gets his powers anyway? Why do we ned to see it again?), the complete lack of anything interesting going on in that trailer.

You know what this is don't you? This is them trying to deny Marvel the rights to the franchise so they can merge it with Avengers. The've thrown it together as quick as they can, with some no name actors and shitty cgi, just so they can make some more money off it because otherwise Marvel would just buy it back and make an actually decent movie that ties in with all their other movies.

Hopefully they plan on just charging Marvel a crapload of money or partnership rights on proceeds or something since I'd love to see Spidey in the Avengers or Avengers 2 (even if traditionally he wasn't in the Avengers, I'm pretty sure in recent times he has been in it several times).

If they decided to correct Sam Raimi fucking it up the first time around, that could justify the exercise a bit.

Probably won't, though.

No name actors? Seriously? Are you out of touch with reality or something?

This movie has Martin Sheen, Sally Fields, Dennis Leary, Emma Stone, and Andrew Garfield! Someone's bound to recognize at least two of those names. And of course the CGI doesn't look 100% yet. The movie is coming out next year, they've still got time to work on it.

And I'm gonna be in the minority on this, but I enjoyed the first person bit. I can't wait to see this trailer in 3D so I can get the feel of zipping through New York.

And to whoever asked, yeah Peter's parents were SHIELD agents in the comics. So they're actually adapting that bit right.

I'll admit, I think this movie has made a mistake in redoing the origin instead of skimming over it (ala Spectacular Spider-Man) but maybe it'll work to their benefit. From what I gleamed from the trailer, Peter is actually gonna look and act like an outcast. I never believed Tobey's performance as a nerd but Garfield looks like he can pull it off.

Tbh I hadn't actually looked up who was in it, I just remebered someone else in this thread saying the same thing. Out of all of those I still only recognise Sheen and Leary outright, though I still can't recall what I might have seen either of them in. The only thing I've seen Emma Stone in is Zombieland and didn't recognise the name immediately. The others I have no clue about.
