Trailer roundup: The Walking Dead and Amazing Spider-Man

Published by Kevin on July 22nd, 2011 - in News

We were given a teaser trailer last week to Season 2 of The Walking Dead, today we are treated to a nearly 5 minute extended trailer promoting the upcoming season which starts on October 16th, 2011. It still appears as the story is taking a bit of a different direction that the comic books, with certain key characters who died early in the comics still traveling around with the survivors. Those who read the books know who I’m talking about! Also, it looks like the survivors will finally arrive at Herschel’s Farm!

The Amazing Spider-Man official trailer made its official debut recently after having been leaked to the Internet a couple days before. It looks like we are seeing a complete origin story again – has it even been 10 years since the first Spider-Man movie? Are we really going to have to sit through another hour of origin again? Will there be a wrestling match that leads to the promoter being robbed that leads to Uncle Ben getting killed? That could take up some serious time that could be better spent just showing Spider-Man slinging his webs.

Gone are the organic webshooters and Emma Stone will be playing Gwen Stacy, not Mary Jane Watson as I had previously thought (considering her reddish hair). Someone please tell her to steer clear of the George Washington Bridge.

Netflix is now available in Canada! Instantly watch as many movies & TV episodes as you want. Cancel anytime.

New Ultimate Spider-Man

Promo for Ultimate Spider-Man #1


A month before that “other relaunch” gets underway, Marvel will be relaunching its Ultimate Comics universe with new creative teams, and someone new playing the role of Spider-Man.

Yesterday Stadium Comics participated in a retailer conference call with Marvel Editor-in-chief Axel Alonso and writers Brian Michael Bendis (Ultimate Spider-Man), Jonathan Hickman (Ultimates, Ultimate Hawkeye), and Nick Spencer (Ultimate X-Men).

Ultimate Fallout #4 was revealed to be a pivotal issue leading up to this relaunch as it will contain the first appearance of the new Spider-Man. Marvel has said this will receive mainstream press attention. at a level somewhere in between the death of Johnny Storm, and the death of Captain America. Issue 4 will ship with a clear polybag. They’ve also stated that Ultimate Fallout #1 will be a direct continuation of the Death of Ultimate Spider-Man.
