Tonight on the season premiere of America’s Got Talent Columbia/Sony ran a 4-minute ‘super preview’ for Marc Webb‘s The Amazing Spider-Man. For the most part, this was the most recent trailer with a long single scene tacked on to the beginning.
That said, the new scene that opens this preview is some great, classic Spidey action. I’ve been a little hit and miss on some of the views of this take on the character; I liked what we saw at Comic Con but wasn’t as wild about the latest trailer. But the scene that opens this preview is almost exactly what I like about Spider-Man: a character that, while super-powered, is still totally grounded with the fears of the people he’s trying to help.
Check out the scene, and the full preview, below. Read More »

The viral ad campaign for Marc Webb‘s The Amazing Spider-Man has debuted two new video clips, and one of them has some significant new footage. The first clip is a video from Oscorp featuring Rhys Ifans in character as Dr. Curt Connors, pitching the scientific value of his work to aspiring Oscorp interns.
The other is a lot more significant, as it features a few small interview clips with Webb and Ifans talking about both Connors and his scaly, villainous alter-ego, but also some new footage of the Lizard in action. Read More »
Whenever people ask me why I prefer Twitter to Facebook as my primary social media connection, I’m happy to run off a laundry list of reasons. One of the biggest ones is it gives us direct access to formerly unreachable people, be it politicians, athletes, musicians or, in today’s case, filmmakers. Where else can we directly pose a question to these people and actually get a response?
Marc Webb, the director of 500 Days of Summer and a small upcoming film called The Amazing Spider-Man, is the latest filmmaker to join the ranks of the little blue bird and he’s started things off right, with a cool new image from his July 3rd film. Check it out below. Read More »

Sony has set a November 1, 2013 release date for their Roland Emmerich-directed action film, White House Down. Written by James Vanderbilt (The Amazing Spider-Man, Zodiac) it’s about a “paramilitary take over of the White House,” basically Die Hard meets Air Force One.
Emmerich had previously reserved that date for his sci-fi film Singularity, but with it being put on hold, White House Down will move first, likely to get ahead of a rival project called White House Taken starring Gerald Butler. Emmerich has just begun casting his film. [THR]
