This is my main issue as well... what's the point of being a masked hero... if you constantly take your mask off?

Even if it's just in front of a kid (I will admit, I DID like that bit where he gave him the mask and told him to put it on, that was cute)... but still, that kid could someday say "MOM! That kid over there is the guy that is spider-man!" Or he could grow up to be a villian...

I think that's the studio meddling with the mask. Since they(Sony) is paying the actor, they want him to show his mug as much as they can.

Good point.

I won't lie, I had major reservations about this film - my biggest one was rebooting it so soon.
But after the trailer with The Avengers, and last nights 4+ minute preview, I'm stoked for this. And I agree with the constant unmasking, but that bit in the car with the kid made me smile from ear to ear.
Excellent.

I thought it was bloody corny.

"Put the mask on, it'll make you strong!" Uh, no. That's not something you say when trying to comfort a kid. That's something you say when you're trying to pull a prank on the retarded kid in middle school (not that I ever did such a thing, if you're curious). Call me biased, but I couldn't take that seriously.

I'm also interested in how a broken headlight can quickly set fire to an entire SUV...unless the lizard was carrying a drum of gasoline with him on his rampage and doused each car before he threw them off the bridge. Which, if that's the case, is quite a dick-ish move on his part.

I will admit, that whole "Oh no, small knives! My only weakness!" bit was kinda funny. Other than that, the 4-min trailer just screamed "MEH" to me.

I showed a friend from work the trailer and he went hysterical after the small knives bit... It was kind of creepy.

"Oh NO! You found my weakness! It's small knives!!!"

My friend: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Dude has issues... hilarious issues.

Diamond has just released images of some Busts for the movie.

Showing us Spider-man's first suit. Before he makes his good ol "RednBlues"

As well as what could be considered our very first, CLEAR idea of what lizard is going to finally look like.

I like the body, and how his would-be-missing arm is more like a lizards with 4 fingers... but that face is just... not right.

Why is everyone so damn bitchy about everything?

The four minute preview was very enjoyable. The "Put on the mask scene" was good, it shows that Spiderman is just more than a suit. Plus what would you tell a kid about to die in a burning car who is scared to death? Plus they live in New York the odds of seeing the same kid is very very low, him growing up to be a villian is just stupid, and telling his mom that he is Spiderman can be covered up by a simple excuse.

The Lizard looks just fine, yes it's not the "Reptile" Lizard, but it's something different. Maybe it's a set up for him to futher lose his humanity in a sequel, who knows. The point is that it looks fine and people need to get their head out of their ass and just accept that things change, they changed Spiderman's origin so what's so wrong with them changing the Lizard?

Yes, we should all just say good things about this movie, despite how we never saw this before.

See, the argument can go both ways. No need to bitch about how watsy and I have reservations about this.

Its not so much reservations but declaring a product to be shit for minor reasons before the film is even released.

I'm as huge a Lizard fan as anybody, and I have to admit the design disappoints me, but honestly I don't think that should ruin the film for someone. Remember how bad the Green Goblin looked in the first Spider-man movie?

But whatever, we could at least hope that the movie is great and thats what counts.

And i didnt mind the Green Goblin suit...it was ok and it didnt made the movie worse or anything.
