New Footage of Spider-man In Action

By Jack November 15, 2001 1:28 PM

There's been nothing but Harry Potter in the news lately. But, the official Spider-Man site has put up two clips from the upcoming superhero movie, and they're damn fine ones.

This is ripped straight out of EmpireOnline. I told you I don't have time to write anymore.

The first one (click here to see) shows Tobey Maguire swinging through the sky as Spidey while the second clip (click here to see) is our first good look at the CGI Green Goblin in action. The special effects for Tobey Maguire's aerial antics are extremely impressive - but we're witholding judgement on the Green Goblin until we see more.

For those of you who don't check the "Official Spiderman Website" you probably should start; there is some pretty sweet stuff.

It's Harry Potter vs. Spider Man. Vegas has early by 3 to 1. Keep in mind however, that the Potter movie will have a 2 minute "Attack of the Clones" preview. That alone will add tens of thousands of Star Wars Freaks world wide. Either way it should be entertaining.

In the official site of Spiderman log in the network down the right corner. After that you could watch it as a member.

You know, I signed up at Spiderman, but I still didn't see anything! At least there I had sound though. Am I doing something wrong? I've got a cable-modem, isn't that hi-speed?

You mean I actually have to exert some energy, go to the web site, become a member, find the clips... geez, doesn't apathy stand for anything anymore?

I can't get it to play. If anyone else can, can you tell me what the green goblin actually looks like in motion because after looking at the pictures I wasn't too excited about it.

English it's not my birth language, but I think the right word is "CRAP" if you are asking about the Goblin trailer.
But about Spiderman's, simply great. It's Amazing seeing him stick into his house's wall.

That's what I did:

1)Enter Spiderman Movie Network
2)Suscribe, then log in
3)When the main page is open, it has to show in the center a little window with the images of both Spidey & Goblin with the title "Exclusive Video Clips"
4)Click on that, it must show which clip wanna see first, and just choose.

The trailer's absolutely Amazing! no wonder he's the amazing Spider-man. By the way, is it: Spider-man, Spiderman or Spider man?

If I remember correctly, the first two options were used in the comic's title once; the last one not, and because it stinks.

Things like that don't get you sleep, of course.

I'm looking forward to Spiderman the movie, but with the likes of Episode II coming out, is it going to fare well at the box office?

RE: New Footage of Spider-man In Action reply

Posted by 100% AMERICAN (hellskitchen_@hotmail.com) on November 21, 2001 8:18 AM

Who cares?

If it does not reach it's financial expectation, will that ruin your experience. Army of Darkness did not do that well in theatres, but it was still a great movie going experience, as was Passion in a Dessert, Tigerland, Hooper, the Warriors, and Bringing out the dead.

Episode II will be released two weeks after Spiderman, so our friendly neighboor is gonna have all that time to be a hero in the box office.

The reason why I'm so interested in how spiderman's going to fare at the Box office is because I directed it.

Rest your worries.The movie is going to do awesome at the box office. All those Star Wars Fans (myself included) have been waiting for ever to see our favorite Webslinger come to life on the big screen for alot longer than we waited to see the Pantom Menace.

Besides, with the difference in both movies' main theme and the couple of weeks delay, everybody could see the two of it.
