Ultra-Poseable Spider-Man (Movie Series)

Presenting the brand new Ultra-Poseable Spider-Man from the upcoming movie re-boot of the Spider-Man franchise. This particular action-figure from the Movie-toy-line boasts a whopping 20 points of articulation - making it the most flexible and poseable Marvel Universe sized action figure.

It also features Spider-Man's new costume as he will appear in the movie reboot (The Amazing Spider-Man) staring Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone.

What do I think of the costume? Well there's the Filipino joke that basically says that Spider-Man is a "REAL MAN" because he can make a sticky-white fluid appear from his hands. This costume seems to reinforce that idea because it includes an arrow pointing straight to his gonads. I swear if the movie bombs there is going to be a lot of jokes about this costume.

The Amazing Spider-Man trailer

I still find this a bit underwhelming when compared to the teaser trailer for Sam Raimi's first Spider-Man movie, but I'll keep an open mind and still see this one. It's a reboot after all, and it's completely different from the first trilogy of films.

Spoiler: Stan Lee reveals his cameo for "The Amazing Spider-Man"!

This is pretty much a SPOILER to anyone wanting looking forward to Stan "The Man" Lee's cameo in Marc Webb's "The Amazing Spider-Man", but as reported in Superherohype, somebody attended the Dallas Comic Con and recorded + uploaded in You Tube Stan's talk on stage, wherein he reveals the details of his appearance!

The Amazing Spider-Man is slated for a July 3 release next year!

The Uncle Ben Death Scene filmed for The Amazing Spider-Man!

Movie news sites Screen Rant and SuperHeroHype have posted news and pics from the latest scene to be filmed for the movie "The Amazing Spider-Man" - The "Uncle Ben Death Scene"! This isn't much of a spoiler and comes across as common knowledge to anyone with an inkling of knowledge about the Spider-Man mythos, but consider this a SPOILER still, especially to those who want to remain "spoiler-free" for Marc Webb's Spider-Man film reboot!

The scene plays out pretty much like that in the comics and Sam Raimi's Spider-Man - Uncle Ben, played by veteran actor Martin Sheen, meets his demise at the hands of a burglar. This propels Peter Parker (played by Andrew Garfield) to hunt down the burglar as his alter ego Spider-Man, and when he eventually catches him, he finds out in horror that it's the same thief he had to opportunity to stop during a wrestling gig he entered earlier. This tragic incident teaches Peter a lifelong and valuable lesson; "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility".

That pretty much sums up the entire nature of this scene. For more pics and info, visit the source posts at Screen Rant and SHH!

Spider-Man Reboot Update: Set photos reveal Oscorp in the movie!

Set photos have appeared online in sites like Slash Film showing off new developments in Marc Webb's upcoming Spider-Man flick - "The Amazing Spider-Man"! Aside from the fact that the reboot will focus more on Peter Parker's high school life and have him fight The Lizard, little is know about the actual story. However, the new set pics shot in NYC may shed some light into the mystery, as the "Oscorp" logo appears prominently in one of them. That means that Norman Osborn, aka The Green Goblin, may factor into the movie somehow. We'll just have to wait and see when more details sprout out in the coming months. For more info and the set photos, check out Slash Film!
