'Amazing Spider-Man' Teaser Trailer Drops Possible Plot Twists
07-20-2011

For some of us
comic book fans out there, Spider-Man 3 withTobeyMaguire and Kirsten Dunst was something
of a disappointment – too many villains, too many cheesy
moments, and what was up with Peter Parker’s impromptu dance
number?
For these and a
myriad of other reasons, I was apprehensive to accept the Marvel
reboot of the franchise series with open arms. But the new teaser
trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man, directed byMarc Webb ((500) Days of Summer) and
starring Andrew Garfield and Emma
Stone, may have just changed my mind. Check it out
below!
POTENTIAL
SPOILER ALERT!!!
Seeing that I,
myself, am a nerd, it would be remiss of me not to point out the
potential similarities of the trailer’s opening and the 1968
comic book, Amazing Spider-Man Annual #5. In this
particular comic, Richard and Mary Parker (Peter’s parents)
are revealed to be agents of the C.I.A. and S.H.I.E.L.D., who went
missing in action and were presumed dead after an undercover
mission went awry. Likewise, in the trailer, Peter’s parents
leave him in the care of his Aunt May and Uncle Ben, but are unable
to tell him where they’re going or why they’re leaving.
Could this be Richard and Mary Parker heading off on that very sameS.H.I.E.L.D. mission from the comics?
Only time will
tell – Make sure to check out The Amazing Spider-Manin theaters next summer 2012!!!
