Anyone looking forward to The Amazing Spider-Man movie?

I am.
Hate that it's getting somewhat mixed reviews. Some are raving over it, saying it is indeed awesome, better than all three Raimi films. Others have said it's worse than Spider-Man 3 and one reputable poster on SHH, who has been backing the film since the beginning has said it was on par with Green Lantern!
Still, I will judge this with my own eyes once it's released.

They realize how many millions of dollars are riding on it (billions if more movies are made), so I think that it will be better than Green Lantern. I am a huge lifelong Spider-Man fan/collector. I purposely avoided all clips, articles, forums, etc., back in 2002 so that I would not be biased when watching the first Raimi film. It made the movie more fun for me... being surprised by scenes, not saying "oh, that's the one from the trailer... there's the one from the extended trailer... the one from the commercial...", etc.

Not at all to be honest!! I don't like the cast and this "untold story." I don't think this movie needed to be made. I will probably check it out, but I have no excitement for this. I am going to see Savages instead that weekend.

I am extremely excited for this film! The trailers so far have been amazing, and look to be about 10x better than Raimi's Spider-Man, which I wasn't really a fan of.

I'm starting to get excited.. I love Andrew Garfield and I love Spider-Man so it's a win for me right now.. I definitely have my skepticism though. I feel this can be good or this can be completely ing awful.. I don't think this movie has room for an in between type of outcome. That comparison to Green Lantern is painful though. God I really hope this movie doesn't suck.

Andrew Garfield I think is going to be a MUCH better Peter Parker than Toby. I really couldn't stand him at all. With the trailers, Andrew plays Peter well. I was mostly excited for the Avengers, but now that that's done with, I moved on to DKR and Spiderman which I'm excited for both equally. The thing that sucks, is that I'm going to go out of the country in the end of June and come back mid July. So I have to wait about 2 weeks to go watch it.

I am going to see Savages instead that weekend. I was highly upset when this movie was first announced a couple of years ago. Why re-boot when the franchise wasn't "dead"? I wanted to see more of the Raimi story. I am going to miss the Jonah Jameson & Aunt May from those movies... they were spot on.

I am indeed excited for it, even more so than for TDKR, which is surprising even to me.

I'm excited for it but not as much as I was for The Avengers or TDKR.

More excited for this than any other movie in recent history. I can't wait to see Andrew Garfield portray Parker/Spider-Man.
Can't wait for tickets to go on sale, I asked MONTHS in advance for the night off so I can go to the midnight showing. My boss actually asked me if I'd pick her up a ticket too.

This is one of those movies that I'll watch eventually, it's not that I'm not excited, I just don't like going to the movies. I think Garfield portrays a good comic book version of Peter. What do you guys think about the new costume?

What do you guys think about the new costume? I'm not really a fan, maybe it's the poofy hair but there's something about him I don't like. But who knows? Maybe he'll end up doing a fantastic job and will win me over as a fan. As for the costume, it looks okay but I prefer the one they used in the original trilogy.

I'm looking forward to it, but I'm not nearly as excited as I think I should be.
I still wish they hadn't done a new origin. They could have easily changed course on Spider-man without starting at the beginning.

I was hugely against it at first because I hate the idea of reboots happening so quickly but I just kind of thought of it like James Bond and got over it. I'd like to see it but I'm not expecting too much. Looks interesting enough!
