The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Has Started Production
It seems like just yesterday we were waiting for Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man to swing into theaters, and already its sequel is on the way. In the last few months we've heard some huge casting news, from the addition of Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborne and Shailene Woodleyas Mary Jane to Jamie Foxx as Electro and possibly Paul Giamatti as The Rhino. Now that the origin story is out of the way we're fascinated to see what kind of story the director will be spinning for part two. And it all begins today. Webb has announced on his Twitter account that production has officially started on The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and has posted a picture to mark the occasion. Posted with the message, "Day 1. #anamorphic #film #philthecameraoperator," what's interesting about the photo is that the director appears to be using film instead of shooting digitally (like he did for the last movie), which means that he's not shooting in 3D here. http://www.cinemablend.com/images/ne...1360046955.jpg |

I understand why they didn't want to continue the Raimi series, but they could've at least assumed we're all familiar with how Spider-Man got his powers and skipped the origin, which I thought was the weakest part of the new movie. Raimi's first one did it better, even as corny as it was. But once it got past the origin, Webb's version was interesting if not amazing. I look forward to the next one. |
I thought the latest was ok, not great, but decent. BUt I'm glad they dumped whiney ass Tobey McQuire.

IGN has a story up that shows a locker with the number 14, from a set photo tweeted by Marc Webb with the hashtag #happybirthday. Knowing Dane Dehaan has been cast as Harry Osborn fans have already started freaking out about the picture and drawing conclusions from it.
In the Ultimate Spiderman comics Eddie Brock and Peter Parker find the Venom suit in a locker with the same number. February 6th is Dehaans birthday and Josh Trank, who directed Chronicle, is set to direct the Venom stand alone movie. All signs point to Dehaan being Venom outside of him being cast as Harry Osborn. I think Dehaan, the actor, would make a great Venom. However I'm tired of the skinny Venom, didn't like it in Spidey 3, don't like the idea of it now. http://screenrant.com/amazing-spider...sborn/?_r=true |
New Amazing Spider-Man 2 Set Photo Might Reference The Rhino
OMG, Spider-Man is going to cameo in this summer’s Iron Man 3, where Peter Parker will help Tony Stark take down The Mandarin (Sir Ben Kingsley), who receives his power from ten cosmic rings he obtained from the alien technology of a crashed spaceship! Seriously! Why else would The Amazing Spider-Man director Marc Webb Tweet this latest photo other than to drive Spider-Man fans mad? It’s so obviously a confession of a Mighty Marvel Team-Up … right?! http://www.cinemablend.com/images/ne...1362093182.jpg OK, so this is just the new photo posted to Webb’s busy Twitter account, and it could mean everything – or nothing at all. The director has teased a few tantalizing images on his account that usually send Spidey trackers (like myself) into a frenzy to figure out what he might mean. An ominous locker? It has to mean Venom. Right? Today’s photo shows a layout of various designs for ring tattoos. For all we know Webb is in the market for his own tattoo, and decided to share his decision with friends, family and followers. But he tagged it as “Day 18” of the current ASM 2 shoot. And he hashtagged it with #pravda. That’s where things get interesting. Pravda, if you do a little digging, is the Russian word for truth and also a political newspaper associated with the country's Communist party. The paper was closed by Russian President Boris Yelstin temporarily before being revived by the Communists to be their vocal mouthpiece. Could this be an allusion to Paul Giamatti’s Rhino character? In the comics, the Rhino is also known as Aleksei Mikhailovich Sytsevich, a Russian mafioso who morphs into his brutish super-criminal when special armor is bonded to his body. Or Webb could simply have been tweeting from the American lounge Pravda SoHo, which is famous for its Russian vodka. No matter how you spin it, Webb has all of us dancing on his web as he continues to tease his sequel. May 2, 2014 can not get here quick enough. |
I like that the Spider-Man reboot is old school but some of those early villains were lame. The Rhino is one of the lame ones. So is the Shocker. How about Mysterio or the Vulture if they are going to avoid doing the Green Goblin again?
