New Hi-Res Images for ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’
Columbia Pictures has released a new batch of high-resolution images from Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man and you would think Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone got a bad case of teenage brooding (possibly caught from the Twilight phenomenon?).
You probably haven’t seen the new settings of the pictures below so give them a look. It seems like Sony/Marvel are trying to market the teenage angst the characters are facing as a big selling point. It would certainly bring an added dimension to the story and characters if done right but given how misdirected similar attempts have looked in other franchises — most notably Twilight but also the previous Spider-Man 3 — I will wait for another trailer to see how this is handled.
Check out the new images below (via the film’s Facebook page and Comic Book Movie). The Amazing Spider-Man opens in 3D July 3rd, 2012.
Like most teenagers his age, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. In his journey to put the pieces of his past together he uncovers a secret that his father held…a secret that will ultimately shape his destiny as Spider-Man. This is the first in a series of movies that tells a different side of the Peter Parker story. On July 3rd, 2012, the untold story begins. And starring Andrew Garfield (Peter Parker), Emma Stone (Gwen Stacy), Denis Leary (George Stacy), Rhys Ifans (Curt Conners), Martin Sheen (Ben Parker), and Sally Field (May Parker), directed by Marc Webb, The Amazing Spider-Man movie is swinging into theaters in IMAX 3D!

I think the film will be shit, but I also think that Garfield and Stone will look amazing and make it worth the ticket price. That’s all.
Ahaha well it’s a bit unusual for the stars to shine but the movie to be shit
this movie looks cheap
Emma Stone as a blonde is a bit shocking. I’m so used to seeing her with red hair!
I love me some Emma Stone
Who doesn’t? :O
I hope this turns out good but so far, this has left me largely unimpressed…
Same boat GM.
Still looking rather bland. I’m hoping that they’re saving the best stuff for the actual film.
Yea, I guess we will see when the full trailer comes out in the next few days/weeks. I’m very unimpressed so far.
LOVE Andrew… and since Comic-Con, this has become one of my top movie I’m anticipating next year. Great pics, thanks Castor!
Glad you like the pics! Let’s hope the movie lives up to your expectations
I predict that the scene for picture 5 will have Garfield saying “My Spidey sense is tingling”
Ahaha that would be hilarious.
Yeah, probably not.I liked the 1st of the Sam Raimi era but never felt firmly invested in the franchise so I am not so pressed.
I might like both actors and the Spiderman story, but the fact that they’re making this remake without even finishing the previous series . . . it’s all just annoying to me now. If I see this movie, it will be out of curiosity and not anticipation.
hmmmm Not sure I want to play with this one. I am a grumpy pants
Thanks for the post Castor, but I have to admit that I am starting to get a little nervous about this one. I have been looking forward to the reboot since I sat through the disastrous 3rd instalment and have been pretty happy with what I’ve been seeing…that is, until now.
It does look a little Twilight-y and very broody too…I hope that these photos have only been released, like you said, to pull in the teenage audience members but I sure hope that the final film is better than these photos.
why is there so much hatred for this film?! I protest!!!
oh, and Twilight and Spiderman in the same sentence is a major faux pas. LOL!
I like the photos, some of them seem to be re-releases. We’ve seen some of them before. Wonder why they released them all as “new”
