Good lord this is an ugly poster. What is Spidey swinging into? The ground? Why is Lizard the size of Godzilla?
I’m embargoed on The Amazing Spider-Man until the 3rd*. But if you’re planning on seeing this film (you should) then I’d recommend springing for the full-on immersion of IMAX 3D. Marc Webb gets the gimmickry of 3D, throwing everything and the kitchen sink into the camera. It makes for some jaw-dropping visuals, and I’d go so far as to say this is the best 3D I’ve seen on a big screen to date. The film’s not without some issues (The Lizard), but the visuals ain’t one of them. This is a movie that knows how to make its 3D work for it, and it demands the best theatrical experience possible.

Hmmm… first Capone gives a good review, and now Tim Kelly hints that it’s good, too. My expectations steadily rising for this one.
My theory from seeing the trailers and the marketing is that this has a good chance of being much better than most people are assuming it is, but not amazing. Hence I expect this is going to gets it ass handed to it financially next week and then eventually find a following on disc.
Which is fine with me, because all this reboot/remake/turn every toy into a movie bullshit needs to stop and if these things bomb, they will eventually stop.
Actually, I kind of like that poster for the most part. The buildings are nearly spider webs spinning out. But I don’t see the Lizard as tall as buildings. Just the buildings are on a different plain of existence. The one thing I would say about the Lizard is that it looks like that old Bigfoot picture from the 70s.
This poster looks like action figure packaging or something.
