Just a note- when they killed off Gwen, I swore off comics for years.
It hit me that hard.

Wait! YOU'RE A GIRL!?!?!?!?!?

I know, my complete dorkiness makes it easy to forget I have no Y chromosome

Note to Byte: I am joking around, being tongue-in-cheek with gender stereotypes that I generally do not follow, except in this case it happens that I do. (And now it isn't funny anymore because I explained the joke...)

And I still think that a reasonable, science-minded guy might decide to design something high-tech that wouldn't rip easily. This is not something I need to suspend my disbelief for. Especially considering we're talking about, well, Spiderman. You know, the dude who gets superpowers from radiation in spider venom, instead of ending up in the hospital for a couple weeks.

What reason had proved best ceased to look absurd to the eye, which shows how idle it is to think anything ridiculous except what is wrong.

As I understand it they're going back to the story of his Uncle Ben is this right?
In which case I think the story is more the problem, not his costume.

Personally I'm not interested in this reboot. While Raimi did a nice job with Spiderman, the character had little where else to go with the sequels and it felt awkward at times and having Uncle Ben's murder be the catalyst for Spiderman's 'moods' in all three films was just lazy.

So unless this film does what Rise of the Apes did for the Planet of the apes films, I'll be avoiding this.

Plus I'm getting a "Twilight" vibe from the trailer.
I'll see it if peeps here see it first & suggest it.

I've been getting a "Twilight" vibe since the earliest trailer. Being a serious Spidey fan, I couldn't bear it if that is the case. I will also wait and see.

Quick sidebar, since I believe you're also a Trek fan, here's my Art Asylum Wrath Of Khan Enterprise toy I just repainted last night:

Looks WAAAY better than it did out of the box.

Yeahhh Baby!!

That is one sharp looking ship.
On a sidebar of my own:
My local cinema plays retro features every so often. Well, a few weeks ago they were playing The Wrath of Khan at a midnight show on Friday. Of course I went to see it. $4 admission so I did the logical thing and bought $10 worth of snacks for the feature(a large popcorn and soda).
I got in quite early, and was the sole person in the theater. They treated me to the musical score for Star Trek 2 while I waited. That was a nice touch I thought. When the lights went down, a few people straggled in but that was about it.
It looked, and sounded fantastic. It was the best movie going experience I have had in a long, long time. And that is rather sad considering I have seen it so many times. But you know you just can't make a perfect film stale....especially looking great on the big screen in near empty theater sipping a Pepsi, and chowing really good popcorn!
Needless to say, when the credits rolled, I may have been the happiest person on the planet.
