The Amazing Spider-Man Teaser Trailer

This comes out three weeks before The Dark Knight Rises and yet 2:30 worth of brand spanking new footage...#ImJustSaying. While I have no doubt whatsoever about which movie I'll dig more, I am impressed by the teaser and it may even make me forget the abominable Spider-Man 3 was only FOUR years ago.

If you're still rattled about a reboot so close to the original series, key differences include:

-a love interest not named Mary Jane

-a villain yet to be featured on the big screen [The Lizard]

-focus on Peter's birth parents

-weird, over-indulgent first-person POV shots that make it look like a video game instead of a blockbuster. *shrug*
