I have major beef with The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and X-Men: Days of Future Past. Okay, maybe not with the films themselves, but with the ways Sony and Fox have been handling the marketing for each of the films, respectively.

While Electro (Jamie Foxx) has been confirmed as the main villain in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (complete with a rumored subtitle to boot) and Rhino (Paul Giamatti) was meant to be nothing more than a lesser arch-nemesis, the recently released triptych of new posters for the film have revealed a recently unannounced villain: the Green Goblin.
