"The Amazing Spiderman" (2012)


Recommended Posts

I personally felt the original series was fine. I don't see why there re-doing it other then to try and cash in. Am I the only one that thinks this movie looks like crap in the making? I really can't bring myself to even care about this for some reason. And for people who think that CG looks like a game and it will change. Keep dreaming...

I tend to agree. It doesn't look "Amazing" in any way. It's got the same look and feel of Tobey's movies.

Trailer looks generic. Anyway, comic book heroes are soooo 2001. Young peeps could care less about Grandpa's reading habits, get with the times; get with something original.

Like the console game stories? LMFAO!!

'The Amazing Spider-Man' sequel gets release date

A release date for the sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man has been set.

Columbia Pictures announced that a planned follow-up for the forthcoming superhero reboot will open in cinemas on May 2, 2014

The first weekend in May is traditionally seen as the beginning of the summer box office season.

The Amazing Spider-Man, which stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone and Rhys Ifans, is due to hit cinemas on July 3, 2012.

It will be released in both 3D and 2D, as well as a 3D IMAX version.

The first set of promotional pictures for The Amazing Spider-Man were revealed earlier this week.

Garfield gave an impassioned speech about the Spider-Man character at last month's Comic-Con, saying: "I think that we all wish we had the courage to stick up for ourselves more, to stick up for a loved one more, or even a stranger you see being mistreated, and Peter Parker has inspired me to feel stronger. He made me, Andrew, braver."

I like the fact they did a reboot/new universe or whatever you want to view it with. It seems like they're going closer with the comics this time instead of just jumping right into the MJ relationship when Peter and Gwen is something that always seems to get forgotten for no reason. She's every bit as important to Peter as MJ is so I'm glad they're not just brushing her off to the side yet again.

Didn't knew there was a thread for this.

Anyway, this movie is one of three most anticipated movies of the next year, at least in my book.

Reasons?

Marc Webb. I loved his first directed movie and I was pretty impressed with his direction.

Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone. Both are excellent rising stars and will surely do good under Marc.

Looking forward to it. (Y)

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times
