Spider-Man 2 Preview Online
Several folks noted that you can now see the first
trailers for Spider-man 2, provided you have some broadband action going on. It's nice to know that there will be something to look forward to after RotK comes out.

I look forward to my first post. Boh!

The video is embedded in a swf file....ack!

Anyone able to extract it?

Nice FX

/.'ing trialers is bad when there's so many /.aholics! I didn't want to see it, but I was just about to press it, just to slashdot the server, so that I could feel like a part of the community :(
Asuming the host will be down sooner than you can say 'Slashdotted', are there any locations of .torrent files?
In need of reliable and affordable server monitoring?
When will this trailer be in theatres? What movies will it be playing before? I want to see this on the big screen.
you fail it cocksucker. I got it.
Clearly Dr. Octopus is the nemesis, but I read the Lizard will be in this movie as well. Maybe he will appear in a future trailer?
Get it up on Quicktime/Apple like all other trailers, you bastards.
Why was it so tiny? i could barely see anything.
MABASPLOOM!
Wow, that was close. I figured after Return of the King, that was it for my life, and I was ready to commit suicide. Thank you for saving my life Slashdot, by bringing me news of Spider-Man 2. I'll be able to continue on for a few months longer now.
looks reaaly good. I think they did a great job with the first spiderman. Thank god they did not ruin the story the way other comic book movies did.(or like the matrix)
I don't know if anyone else felt this way, but is ANOTHER sequel to a bad movie something to look forward to? I'm looking forward to something origional again. There have been what? 4 or 5 sequels out this year? Where is the origionality at?
Right on my Wedding Anniversy...cheapo present :)

like the MPAA today. We'll hate them tomorrow when there is some P2P story.
Awesome trailer, though mroe of a teaser than an actual trailer. That alone makes me positive of next summer's number one B.O. hit though.
Yahoo has more bandwidth than God, man. They're advertising this on their front page, so I imagine they're ready for some serious hits.

It's nice to know that there will be something to look forward to after RotK comes out.
Umm.. there's something called Real Life.. It's a hoot, I suggest you disconnect for a while and try it out.
Trolling is a art,
I want a batman movie goddammit. I tired of this sticky, gooey crap!
Road House is the ultimate Patrick Swayze movie, and now we even have an off-Broadway version starring Taimak from The Last Dragon (in a blond wig).
That sounds really cool
Seriously though, might as well be a geek movie. Why would i put LOTR in the same category as Spider Man? Who wrote that editorial and why must geek movies be stereotyped together? I mean some of these geek movies really suck. Do they really deserve to be lumped into the LOTR pile?
PS: I vote "What about Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing?" to be the new "In Soviet Russia..." of 2004. I laughed when i saw that.
The anguish between his powers/ reponsibilities and love life looks to play a bigger part in this movie. DocOct looks great without a cheezy mask to hide behind.. and it looks like they're working in the revenge angle for Harry Osborne. Looking good here!
Next up, Spiderman 3.. Introducing Venom!
on the web monkey who coded up that streaming client.
I know it's getting hammered, but you can't even pause the damned thing to let it catch up, and if you restart it, you get 2 simultaneous audio streams at different time points.
broken already...
Maybe it's Opera on Linux... Maybe advision.webevents.yahoo.com is blocked 'cause of that "advision" part.
Either that or they are just ignoring coding standards again.
Or we broke it again and they don't have their server set to provide useful feedback.
Either way I'll host a mirror with hella huge (edu) bandwidth if someone wants to give it to me.
I haven't posted in so long, my sig is out of date.
The quality of the trailer sucks. I got about 2 frames per second. Otherwise it looks like they introduced DocOck close to the way he is presented in the comic but he is a younger (not may parker's age in other words) and he doesn't look totaly believable. I am hoping (praying) this villan is better than the last one. (sorry but the acting there was not some of Williams best work there) and this time around the quality of the villan looks just as bad.
/. before it was mentioned on /.
and one other thing, this was the first time i saw something that was mentiond on
Why is this something to look forward to? The first one was the biggest pile of hollywood shit ever made. It had zero redeeming features.
-- The avalanche has started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.
Yes it would be nice to have it in QT and downloadable.. Yes it has an awesome catch scene at the beginning of the trailer with the still poignant "Peter can't let himself fall for MJ".. Bottom line, its gonna be a summer blockbuster and we all will pay our 8$+$5 for our X-treme 128oz Turbo Chug and Popcorn flavored butter. ;)
It's nice to know that there will be something to look forward to after RotK comes out.
Yes, because there won't be any other good films coming out between ROTK and Spiderman 2.
That was schweet...

Good to know there will be at least one scene featuring Mary Jane in an evening gown. That's reason enough for me to see it.

Chapter One - Is It Just a Role?
The dress rehearsal for the drama club's latest production was over. The curtain fell, the audience
of excited parents applauded enthusiastically. The curtain raised and the performers stepped
forward to take their bows. The curtain fell again and still the crowd applauded. The two stars,
Troy and jagged, took their positions centre stage, holding hands as the curtain raised one more time.
They bowed to the audience. Then, overcome with joy, jagged turned and kissed her handsome co-
star full on the lips, her tongue partly invading his mouth.
Troy pulled back, stunned. There was a gasp from the audience. Troy pulled back his arm
and punched jagged full in the face. She fell, blood streaming from her nose.
"Get away from me,faggot!" cried Troy as he stomped off of the stage.
jagged sat briefly on the stage, dazed by the blow. Suddenly, just what
she had done wrong dawned on her. She had gotten so wrapped up in her part, she had forgotten!
She wasn't jagged, she was nick! Tears streamed down his cheeks as he picked himself up and raced
off of the stage to the crescendo of jeers that chased him.
Oblivious of where he ran, nick bumped straight into Mr. Bennett, his
drama teacher. Mr. Bennett wrapped his arms around his confused student as nick buried his
head against his chest and cried.
"You'd better go to my office and get yourself under control. I'll explain everything to Troy, I
mean to Raymond." Raymond was the boy playing the part of Troy in the play.
nick took a tissue from Mr. Bennett and dabbed at his eyes and running
nose as he ran down the hallway. He locked the door of Mr. Bennett's office behind him and
sobbed gently. Finally, he went to the small washroom off of the office and cleaned his
face. His thick theatrical makeup was a mess, and so he scrubbed it off, leaving his clean smooth face
unblemished. That felt a bit better.
nick stared at himself in the mirror, at his own bright blue eyes,
delicate nose, short blond hair. What had come over him?
He was only sixteen and his parents, who were always travelling the
world on business, had dumped him here at the Bishop Strachan private high school for boys. He
had been thrilled to join the drama club, but had been hesitant when Mr. Bennett had suggested
that he try out for the FEMALE lead in the latest play. Well, someone had to play the girls' parts.
And Mr. Bennett had offered to give him extra coaching, outside of class hours and regular after
school rehearsals.
But had it gone too far? For the past eight weeks, nick had left the
dormitory every weekend and lived for those two days with Mr. Bennett and his wife. Mr.
Bennett had stressed that in order to play a girl's part, it was important to understand girls, how
they thought, how they looked upon situations differently than boys did. So from Friday night until
Sunday evening each week, nick had disappeared and Mr. and Mrs. Bennett had enjoyed the company
of jagged.
For two days of every seven, nick had lived his life as a girl, as if
he was the Bennett's niece, visiting her relatives each weekend. Mrs. Bennett had coached nick
on how to walk, how to talk, how to pick out clothing and put on makeup. It was all an
emotional drain on nick, twisting his mind into such an alien, to him, way of thinking. To compensate,
said Mrs. Bennett, she had mixed him a special high protein juice drink which he drank three
times a day, even during the week.
And Mr. Bennett had instructed nick intensively on acting, particularly the nuances of
the live stage and interacting with his fellow performers. But tonight, nick had forgotten
himself and jagged had emerged full force and tried to interact a little too much.
nick decided he could not go through with the play. The jagged character was becoming
too strong. But then, he thought back and realized how wonderful it had felt
how about a spoiler warning, eh?
you ruined the trailer for me!

the only great parts of the first Spiderman was the kissing scene and the school cafeteria scene. Otherwise a forgettable movie not worthy of the 110 mil dollar opening.
I can't believe people can click on a link to a discussion about movie trailer, and then complain when people discuss what's in the trailer. Knowing which characters are in a movie, and a basic plot outline are NOT spoilers.
Soon this will be shown in theatres, you will have to close your eyes and put your hands over your ears, I guess.
Does anyone have a direct link to the trailer, so I can "wget" it?=)

I'll wait for the quicktime version so I can actually watch it. I have yet to have streaming video work well, even at postage stamp size and a high speed connection. This one is no exception. Let me download something with decent quality in non-realtime, ThankYouVeryMuch...
He lives. Bad guy dies/is captured. A little bit of romance is thrown in. Someone else can fill in the rest of the details.
Who knew. If a Hollywood movie centers around gratuitious nudity and pointless sex with a weak voice over, it's explotive crap. But if an independant film does it, it's art, and if it's hot man on man action, then it's not just art, but daring too.
Sometimes the indies will really provide you with something different and great, but just as offen it's be something derivitive and trite lacking hollywoods polish.

Can we have a cameo appearance of Magneto in this movie? Pretty Please? And have Doc Ock try to take him out?
Ummm.... get bent.
I enjoy movies, most specifically sci-fi and fantasy movies, not only watching them and anticipating them, but sharing and discussing them later with close friends. It gives me a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction. Because my particular obsessions are not the same as yours (whatever they are) does not mean I'm not engaged with my life.
When people say "get a life" what they really mean is "get my life," i.e. "share my interests, like what I like, or I condemn you." To which I give a hearty middle finger, because no matter what you choose to do with your time, there will always be a legion of nobodies lining up to let you know you're wasting it, and should instead be doing X, where X is whatever they consider worthwhile, whether it be movies, macrame, hang-gliding, roller fucking, or seeing how many Twinkies you can stuff in your mouth at once.
My life is my life, I've chosen it, and I'm fine with it. If you don't happen to think it qualifies, that's your problem, not mine.
For my part, I'm flying to Minneapolis in a couple of days to see ROTK opening night with my best friends in all the world, go out and have some beers afterward, discuss the movie, and have a great time -- just like I have the last two LotR movies. So there's real life for you.
Ode to a Superhero
Peter Parker was pitiful
Couldn't have been any shyer
Mary Jane still wouldn't notice him
Even if his hair was on fire
But then one day he went to that science lab
That mutated spider came down
Oh, and now Peter crawls over everyone's walls
And he's swingin' all over town
La li la, li de da
La la, li le la da dum
Sling us a web, you're the Spider-Man
Sling us a web tonight
'Cause we're all in the mood for a hero now
And there's evil doers to fight
Now Harry the rich kid's a friend of his
Who horns in on Mary Jane
But to his great surprise it seems she prefers guys
Who can kiss upside down in the rain
"With great power comes great responsibility"
That's the catch phrase of old Uncle Ben
If you missed it, don't worry, they'll say the line
Again and again and again
Oh, la la la, di de da
La la, di di da da dom
Now Norman's a billionaire scientist
Who never had time for his son
But then something went screwy and before you knew he
Was trying to kill everyone
And he's ridin' around on that glider thing
And he's throwin' that weird pumpkin bomb
Yes, he's wearin' that dumb Power Rangers mask
But he's scarier without it on
Sling us a web, you're the Spider-Man
Sling us a web tonight
'Cause you're brave and you're strong and so limber now
But where'd you come up with those tights?
It's a pretty sad day at the funeral
Norman Osborn has bitten the dust
And I heard Harry's said he wants Spider-Man dead
Aw, but his buddy Pete he can trust
Oh, and M.J. is all how for Peter now
Aw, but Peter, he just shuts her down
Mary Jane, don't you cry, you can give it a try
Again when the sequal comes 'round
Oh, la la la, di de da
La la, di di da da dum
Sling us a web, you're the Spider-Man
Sling us a web tonight
'Cause we all sure could use us a hero now
And we think that you'll do all right

It's Bill Gates!

There have been what? 4 or 5 sequels out this year? Where is the origionality at?
So you're saying that years in which there are fewer sequels feature more original movies? You must be joking. Every year Hollywood puts out films that are copies of previous films. They change the names, of course, but most films follow the same tired old formula.
If anything, sequels provide the opportunity (I'm not saying they always succeed) to do something different from the first film for the simple fact that a lot of the character development has already been completed. Not to mention there is a built-in audience so they could (again I'm not saying they always do) try something a little more radical. The Empire Strikes Back was very little like Star Wars. Even The Matrix Reloaded wasn't very similar to the original Matrix, although some would argue that the sequel was a step in the wrong direction.
Bottom line: if you want to see something original, then look for movies by new directors or new countries (check out some of the movies coming out of India if you want something radically different). Complaining about Hollywood showing too many sequels is rediculous. Even if there is ever a summer with NO sequels, I doubt the films will be any more original than any other year.

I heard a little while back that Toby McGuire couldn't do the movie because of his back. Is there any reveal that he is still in the movie?

And no, his real arms and legs don't count.
Mr. Furious: He takes them off when he transforms.
The Shoveller: That doesn't make any sense, he wouldn't be able to see.
Yeah, right.
It wasn't bad, it was a "good" movie, but as a geek, it disapointed me on many levels.
And the number one thing that bugged me the entire time:
The wrestling promoter did not claim the 10 million dollar reward that was offered by the Daily Bugle.
When Peter registers for the fight, they ask for his name, home adress, and insurance information.
He then pissses off the promoter who is clearly driven by the pursuit of money first and foremost.
Then there's a reward offered very publicly and the guy who 1)Hates Spider Man, 2)Know his real name, home adress, and has his insurance information, and 3) loves money DOESN'T claim the prize?
What the HELL?
Ruined the whole movie for me. They should have either not have shown us that he gives him all this info or not have the reward. Having the 2 and not following up on that is bad storytelling.
You can't take the sky from me...
Take a look at the stiff competition that comes out one week earlier.
Bill Murray a lock for an Oscar.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
I'm pretty sure that there will be plenty of venom in Spiderman 2 in reviews from the fanboys.
or does Doc Oc look like Bill Gates?
Not long ago, we were having a conversation about this subject and I was saying that Doc Oc needs to be the next Spiderman villian and that it would really be cool if a batman was done that featured Ra's Al Guhl and was a little more gritty and less "Tim Burtonesqe" style fantasy-goth.
Said conversation also included the following:
1) Wonder Woman movie has got to be inevitable
2) From a special-effects standpoint, Green Lantern and Dr. Strange could both be potentially pretty cool projects.

Something to look forward to after ROTK? Oh yeah right, more Hollywood simplistic badly written brain dead action crap with gratuitous semi-nude scenes. Yeah right, something to really look forward to, along with taxes, death and the end of the world.

Let me see if I have this straight.
You don't like one of the most fun movies of the last year because:
1) The movie used a storytelling effect that differed from your interpretation of the comic book.
2) 4 seconds of seeing a guy's muscles made you uncomfortable, and you didn't like seeing Dunst in a wet shirt.
3) You disagree with the one thing that the movie did to really improve on the credibility of the story (web-shooters; what the hell, that was the stupidest part of the comic book, like a teenage kid is going to make those on his own), but your suspension of disbelief hinges on the credibility of the supposed actions or inactions of a bit character in an introductory subplot.
Not only does 1) make it clear that someone has funnelled the Saharah into your vagina, and not only does 2) make us question your sexuality -- but "Spider Man 2099!ONOZ!!" -- wtf.
I direct your attention to every episode of the Simpsons where Comic Book Guy is remotely involved.
Now, in classic Bart fashion, go and write on the blackboard 10 times "I WILL NOT EMULATE COMIC BOOK GUY".
Fat chance, if the first one is to go on I'm not even going to bother keeping it on the LAN server if someone uploads it, let alone download it, or gosh go watch it at the movies...
Piracy must be making no impact whatsoever in hollywood if the quality of shit thats produced is anything to go by. (Competition generaly brings lower cost with better quality).

I rarely ask for my money back if I see something really horrid in the theatre... I did with daredevil without hesitation and almost with spiderman - did people really like that movie?
Seriously, I'm sick of this trend. The trailer for the original Alien is still the best one I've ever seen; rather then show you the plot or good glimpses of the monster, all you got were quick shots that let you know that Alien was going to scare the hell out of you. Now we have trailers like the one for the Matrix Reloaded (they showed the best parts of the Hundred-Agent Fight) and this monstrosity for Spiderman 2. I think it would have been much cooler if we had seen Doc Oc's mechanical tentacles walking up... and nothing more. Leave well enough alone; let us know we're getting something cool, but don't show the best parts. Leave some surprises for the actual movie.
This sig has been stolen. Return it to its original user for a reward.
No, he just gets hired to be the stunt double for every goddamn member of Weezer right before the restauraunt scene.
Seriously though, Sam, your new glasses are not cool. Putting them in your movie isn't going to help, they're just ugly. You look like a goddamn racoon with jaundice. I know the poster at Lens Crafters said they were "tight", but sometimes Calvin Klein has to tell those little lies to make you buy his crap. I feel for ya, Sam baby, really, but sometimes you just have to quit while you're ahead. Nobody wants to get rescued by a flying emo kid with super powers, not even in a movie.

A movie the size of a postage stamp (that I can't save) with an irritating high-pitched whining noise in the audio.
It did everything to annoy me but insult my mother and punch me in the face.
How the bloody hell is this informative?
Goo goo g'joob.
To top the previous movie's upside-down kissing scene, this time the spidey will be shown in 69 position with MJ
But since then they'd have to pay the actual creator of Spiderman royalties, I'm sure this one will still fail to make a profit.(at least on paper)
But remember kids, the MPAA insists you respect their intelluctual property and be fair to the all the "little people" who earn their living making movies.

Wrestling promoter, hell, what about MJ's answering machine? Peter and Green Goblin have a discussion that's being recorded, and everything MJ needs to get a clue is discussed.
It would be nice if they got past the secret between Pater and MJ in the next movie. It doesn't work for me. "Gee, Spiderman, you have the same arrested-development sounding voice as my friend Peter Parker."
To which Spidey says "You were so much hotter in Interview with a Vampire"
Try it.
Was anyone else impressed by the look of the tentacles, considering that they're made with puppetry and not CG? My brother's a puppetry major and he got some isinde info on it, i was kind of worried it would look like ass.

Ah, the tired old "Hollywood movies suck, let's see more foreign films". I don't think it's fair to compare dozens of US made movies to the one or two best movies made in every other nation in the world for the year. I think there were more than half a dozen Hollywood flicks I enjoyed this year. I doubt I can name that many from anywhere else. Of course there are dozens more crappy US movies as well, but you have to take the bad with the good.
Their Spider-Man II page lists Dylan Baker as Dr. Connors, and Bruce Cambell as a "snooty usher".

At last a movie studio tries to make a difference with Trailers. No Mr. Voice, no statements-intercut-with-titlecards.
I actually enjoyed the fact that for the first 40 seconds, a bit of a story is presented, and I was quite taken in by the abrupt change in the action. Bravo.
Of course, I still wished for trailers that don't give away anything and are an artform for themselves. How about creating a finished film that has a condensed 2-minute-beginning - and then one could just use this beginning as a trailer!
Let me know if you still don't get it. The pic only shows one redeeming feature well, but if you watch the scene, you'll see both.
Dear Slashdot: next time you want to mess with the site, add a rich-text editor for comments.
Note to drunken moderators: I wasn't trolling, he is.
But they're drunk, so here goes:
Let me see if I have this straight.
You didn't, here's the many ways how...
1) The movie used a storytelling effect that differed from your interpretation of the comic book.
If by "interpretation" you mean he fucking explains it that way, yeah, I guess you could say "interpretation".
2) 4 seconds of seeing a guy's muscles made you uncomfortable, and you didn't like seeing Dunst in a wet shirt.
I clearly said it was the cheap exploitative way it was done, not the showing, that I hated. I distinctly remember mentioning how The Transporter did it right.
And technically, I think it might have been illegal for me to enjoy Kristen's Dunst wet t-shirt scene...how old was she at that time?
I still remember her as that lil' girl in Interview With The Vampire, and she's not my type.
Now, had it been Salma Hayek in a wet t-shirt, that's a different story.
3) You disagree with the one thing that the movie did to really improve on the credibility of the story (web-shooters; what the hell, that was the stupidest part of the comic book, like a teenage kid is going to make those on his own)
Yeah, getting bitten by a funky spider makes hir arms secrete and excrete at great force a substance with unheard of physical propreties.
That makes it more realistic, yeaaaaaah...
And
He
Still
Made
Web Shooters.
that was the stupidest part of the comic book
Yeah, getting bitten by a rioactive spider makes you super human instead of giving you cancer, less realistic than genius kid invents super adhesive. Ooooooookaaaaaay....
but your suspension of disbelief hinges on the credibility of the supposed actions or inactions of a bit character in an introductory subplot.
Yes.
I went to see a superhero movie, my suspension of disbelief wasn't going to be about physics or biology.
But wether or not Peter Parker defies the laws of physics and biology, people are still people. And greedy resentfull people do not pass up on 10 000 000 dollars when all they need to do to get that money is to screw over someone you allready hate.
Not only does 1) make it clear that someone has funnelled the Saharah into your vagina,
Real classy.
2) make us question your sexuality
I'm the one who didn't enjoy the scene showing the naked, muscled body of a teenage boy. You, on the other hand...

Internet troll
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
On the Internet, a troll is a person who posts messages that create controversy or an angry response without adding content to the discussion, often intentionally. Though technically different from flaming, which is an unmistakable direct personal attack, trolls often resort to innuendo or misdirection in the pursuit of their objective, which is to create controversy for its own sake, discredit those with whom they disagree, or sabotage discussion by creating an intimidating atmosphere.
