<\/a>The other day, I came across this description<\/a> at CHUD.com of the new trailer for Spider-Man 3<\/a><\/i> that was shown at Comic-Con:<\/span><\/p>\n
But the biggest highlight has to be the Spider-Man 3<\/b><\/i> presentation, where Sam Raimi and most of the cast of the movie showed the unfinished new trailer. There were placeholder effects in spots, but even with animatics inserted the thing gave me chills. The Venom reveal is astonishing, and this trailer is going to silence a lot of naysayers. The trailer has the origin scene for Venom, with Topher Grace sitting in a church, praying for God to kill Peter Parker when a black goo drips down from the belltower onto his hand. And when he\u2019s full on Venom he\u2019s got a very nice set of nasty teeth in his very big mouth.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Then, today, I came across this bootleg video<\/a> of the trailer itself, which someone apparently captured in a very out-of-focus way with their cell-phone camera. Note how a couple of female voices \u2014 Aunt May and Mary-Jane, I assume \u2014 talk about the perils of poisoned hearts, and the need to forgive one another.<\/p>\n
Hmmm. Sin and forgiveness? Sounds nifty. I\u2019m there. (Or I will be, next year.) I just hope this is a great little flick like the second Spider-Man<\/i> movie<\/a> (2004; my article<\/a> on brain-chip movies), and not a real mixed bag like the first one<\/a> (2002; my review<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
