The Amazing Spider-Man Isn’t Entirely A Reboot....Huh?

"But I thought it was a reboot...."

Okay...I'm confused....

I thought the new Spider Man flick was a reboot.
According to Marvel Executive producer Avi Arad it isn't....

"It's not a comeback. You have to look at it this way: Do you want to know more about The Amazing Spider-Man? This movie is going to tell stories that you didn't see in movies 1, 2, and 3."

THIS Spider Man has mechanical webshooters, a new costume, is dating Gwen Stacy, J. Jonah Jameson and Mary Jane Watson aren't in it....?

But it's not a reboot?

Wait a minute... at the beginning Peter Parker wakes up and Gwen is in the shower.....

New Thor Trailer

Just in time to get my mind off the Wonder Woman TV series, we have the new Thor trailer with lots more Destroyer goodness and more shots of Thor and Loki.
You know, I really WANT this one and Cap to do well.

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Adrianne Palicki = Wonder Woman?

Well the new Wonder Woman for David E. Kelley's remake (reboot?) of Wonder Woman has been announced and I am less than over-whelmed.
Adrianne Palicki (Friday Night Lights) will be donning the satin tights and fighting for our rights as the Amazon Princess.
Well....I was hoping for someone that looked like Wonder Woman.
You know Tom Welling does look like Kal-El, even in the first episode before he got all bulked up he could have passed for Superboy at least.
I don't see WW when I look at Palicki.
At all.
Okay, maybe I'm just kinda upset that Sarah Lancaster (Chuck) didn't get it.

I liked the idea of her taking over the Lynda Carter mantle.
And we all know this Wonder Woman is gonna be judged by her standard just like Brandon Routh was judged by Christopher Reeve.
I thought Sarah looked more like LC and I could see her being war-like one minute and compassionate the next.
Oh well.
Anyway, like everything thing else I will give Mr. Kelly and Ms. Palicki the benefit of the doubt and wait until I actually see the show.
And maybe Adrianne can dye her hair jet black and hit the gym (hard) before shooting starts.

New Spider Man Costume
