The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Thoughts on the 30-Minute Preview, Comic Book & IMAX Poster, & Final International Trailer online

Not pulling the stops in the promotional campaign before its release, Sony Pictures and Marvel have released a couple of new posters and a FINAL international trailer to Marc Webb's upcoming Spider-Man film sequel, The Amazing Spider-Man 2! It's literally just a few weeks left until the release of the film, and after seeing the 30-Minute Preview c/o Columbia Picture Philippines, I cannot stress how exciting and intense this sequel is going to be!

The "30 Minute Preview" was a three act sequence that began with a prologue showing what truly happened to Peter Parker's parents, Richard and Mary Parker, just after leaving their boy with Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Act Two then focuses on Spidey saving the day and fighting the man who would be Rhino, while barely trying to catch up with his own graduation! Then Peter tries to rekindle time with his love interest Gwen Stacy, only to have Electro make an entrance at Times Square. Finally, the preview ends with Harry Osborn teaming up with the electric powered villain himself, and Spidey in for a world of hurt with teases on what's to come for the sequel! These all illustrate what kind of sequel we're dealing with here, and it also proves 3D may be the best way to view and experience this superhero movie altogether! There's plenty of action, wise-cracking, and the kinds of dynamic and story that make this possibly THE Spider-Man movie we have been waiting for!

Right above and as seen in Superherohype is a stellar "comic book poster" that pays homage to the actual cover seen in "The Amazing Spider-Man #121", which in itself is a SPOILER for those who don't know their Spidey history well!

And here's a pretty daring IMAX poster by artist Matt Taylor, as seen in Comic Book.com

And finally, here's what may be the FINAL international trailer promoting the film!

That being said, Sony Pictures, Columbia Pictures, and Marvel have released THREE brand new international posters for Marc Webb's Spidey film sequel "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", featuring Andrew Garfield back as Peter Parker/ Spider-Man in his traditional inspired new costume and Jamie Foxx all charged up as the villainous Electro...

Above of course is the "Face Off" poster between Spidey and Electro. There's something electrifying in the air alright.

Then we have Jamie Foxx as Electro, and boy does he look angry. Then the tagline "Enemies Will Unite" foreshadows the team-up between him and possibly the other villains featured in the sequel, which would be Rhino, Green Goblin, and/ or other mystery villains Oscorp may unleash? We'll find out soon enough when the movie comes out.

And of course how can we forget our friendly neighborhood webslinger himself? Charging into action and avoiding Electro's lightning bolts in an epic new poster!

The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Entertainment Weekly reveals Spidey and Electro face off

It's the kind of image that shows that things are going to go down in the sequel, and there's plenty more danger to come for Peter Parker and his alter ego, The Amazing Spider-Man, for Marc Webb's next installment in his new Spider-Man film franchise.

Coming straight from the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly and featured by Slash Film, here's the new cover to the July 2013 issue of EW, featuring Andrew Garfield face to face against Jamie Foxx as their alter egos Spider-Man and Electro, in the showdown that'll happen in May next year with The Amazing Spider-Man 2. There's plenty of juicy info being teased for the second installment in Webb's Spidey movie series, and with the SDCC just around the corner, we can expect more things and a possible trailer to come soon as well.

Photos released in prior months have already been leaked online showing Foxx all made up and blue as Electro, but without the effects. This time the EW cover gives us a look at the official complete look, and he's about to square off against Garfield's Spidey, who's all dressed in the new suit debuting in the sequel.

The Amazing Spider-Man: Mary Jane won't appear in ASM2; Two more sequels dated for 2016 and 2018

Looks like fans of looking forward to Mary Jane Watson's debut in Marc Webb's Spider-Man film reboot universe will have to wait a little longer, as the character has been confirmed to not appear in next year's upcoming sequel, The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

In a report by Superherohype coming from an interview conducted by Entertainment Weekly with MJ actress Shailene Woodley, the filmmakers have decided to cut scenes involving Peter Parker's other love interest from the 2014 film, instead reserving her appearance for the third and fourth Spidey films, which were already given the go ahead and confirmed for a 2016 and 2018 respectively.

Marvel Movies: Spider-Man film franchise will "Never Ever Ever" leave Sony's hands

With The Amazing Spider-Man 2 currently in production, you'd think that the web-slinger would slowly but surely join his brethren in Marvel Studios once filming was complete. Rumors persisted that Sony Pictures was considering selling the rights back to the House of Ideas and Walt Disney Pictures, thereby setting the wall-crawler alongside his fellow superheroes.

Well, looks like that isn't happening anytime soon, as Ain't It Cool confirmed in a conversation with Sony Pictures Co-Chairman Amy Pascal regarding the rumor. She confirms that Sony will "never ever ever" let the rights to Spidey go away, and why would they? Given Sam Raimi's Spider-Man Trilogy and the Marc Webb reboot in 2012 and it's upcoming sequel next year, that's a money-generating hero for the studio that'll keep them happy as well as viewers themselves. They've done a terrific job with both interpretations thus far, and while The Amazing Spider-Man rebooted things to a slow start, the sequel may pave the way for something greater.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2: New Set Photo of Spider Hanging Around

As Phase 2 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe begins with the release of Iron Man 3 in theaters internationally this week and more movies expected from Marvel Studios like Thor: The Dark World down the line, Sony Pictures, Columbia Pictures, and Marvel are busy cooking up the next installment of Marc Webb's Spider-Man film series reboot with "The Amazing Spider-Man 2"!

Slated for release on July next year, a new on-set photo has surfaces showing the new Spider-Man costume (or rather return to the classic look) in action, hanging around sporting a signature "stick to the wall"pose that Spidey fans will easily nod to. Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone are returning as Peter Parker/ Spider-Man and Gwen Stacy, while Jamie Foxx plays the new baddie for the movie as the villainous Electro.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Marc Webb tweets pic of Jamie Foxx as "Max Dillon"

With news on the buzz on the next Spider-Man movie, actor Jamie Foxx will expectedly lend a very different interpretation of the villain Electro to the big screen next year when Sony Pictures and Marvel bring Andrew Garfield back for his next webslinging adventure in "The Amazing Spider-Man 2"!

That being said, last week saw dozens of on set photos of Foxx all made up in blue and being shot as "Electro" minus the special effects. Fans already had a pretty good idea that this version of the villain wasn't from the regular Marvel Universe and bore a similar appearance to the "Ultimate Marvel" version. However, director Marc Webb adds a new layer of mystery to the mix, as he tweets a picture of Foxx not as Electro, but that of his civilian and normal identity of Max Dillon.

Day 52. My name is Max. twitter.com/MarcW/status/3…
— Marc Webb (@MarcW) April 21, 2013

What exactly the background of this version of the character is hasn't been tipped off yet, but from the glasses and possible labcoat he may be an employee of OsCorp like Curt Connors/ The Lizard was in the first film, thereby explaining where he'll be getting his powers later on.
