I was skeptical after the first trailer came out. However, this one looks just as good as the first, if not better. Looks like real character development (*gasp* *shock*). I also liked the character of the editor of the Daily Bugle. Looks like another weine...er...winner....Cluster bombing from a B-52 flying at 30,000 feet is HIGHLY, HIGHLY accurate: The bombs ALWAYS hit the ground.

I really hope they listened to Mr. Lee on this one. He's sorta the guy behind spidey, and he had some sound advice on how the first movie coulda been a bit better. His argument as to the necessity of Peter Parker "making" his web solution and shooter mechanism made for some good sense, and for him to point out that William Defoe was a superb actor and, thus, should have had his face shown while in "Goblin" mode is something the director should have figured out first.
With makeup and CGI like it is, Defoe could have easily had his own face used without a hitch, and being the actor he is it would have been far better than the stupid mask.
Of course, people need to keep in mind that these movies are only "based" on the actual comics and Lee, et al., are not fully consulted....

Yes, but think of every time that Harry saw the Goblin.. without the mask, we would have had this problem; he gets to act all stupid and not realize that the Goblin looks exactly like his father. Put a mask on him, and hey! It's a whole other person, and he can be none the wiser, which leads into the Hobgoblin bit, as he seeks revenge against Spidey. Granted, the mask looked cheesy as all get out, but even in the comics he wore a mask.

I'm not 100% sure they did listen. There's a scene in that trailer where doc oct tells parker to find spider man. He then procedes to throw parker into a brick wall....You'd think that after Parker got back up with only minor injuries that Doc Oct, a genius, would figure out that parker is spiderman. I may be reading too much in to the trailer, but it seems logical. Anyway, my sequel senses are tingling, and they are warning me of a possible dissapointment.
Ah, nice. This is much better than the old trailer ("teaser trailer") I saw a couple of months ago that started off with Peter and Mary-Jane in a diner with a car crashing in. Although that one isn't bad at all. Check out the movie's website and click on "watch it now" under the Full Length Trailer section to see the original teaser and some other stuff as well.

Spider-Man actually had those four extra limbs for awhile in the comic book. Although, he grew extra arms, not legs.

When trailers are engineered to produce 'false scenes'? What I mean is that two different scenes/shots are spliced together in the trailer because they coincidentally run on from eachother or work well together. For example: In the trailer for Men In Black (the first film):
Linda Fiorentino: Let me guess, this is a government conspiracy and you guys are just trying to cover it up, right? (can't remember the exact line)
Cut to Will Smith: Psh, naw.
Two different frickin' scenes, I swear!

You can still download it from here. I personally thought it was an awesome teaser. Too bad 9/11 had to happen.:(

umm - dude, the plot line for all comic books is pretty much the same, so its no surprise that the movies are too. Thats like saying every scooby-doo episode is the same - they track down some monster, who ends up really being the house caretaker with a mask.

Yah, actually, I think it looks like they really recreated the comic book pictures really well... That costume in the alley trash can as he walks away in the rain is a really good recreation of the drawing in the comic books... (Amazing Spiderman #50, pg 8, if anyone cares)
