This weekend, films like Godzilla and R.I.P.D. are gonna be very visible to con-goers, but the film set to make the biggest impact will be Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
To prepare for a larger reveal, the studio has dropped this very brief teaser showing Jamie Foxx's Max Dillon's transformation into one of Spider-Man's storied foes, Electro. Are you just as excited for more ASM2 footage as I am?

Marc Webb's Amazing Spider-Man reboot was met with a mixed reaction. Considering it retconned the entire Tobey Maguire/Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy so soon after Spider-Man 3 farted its way into our minds with new mythos, new actors, and a new direction, Amazing Spider-Man had a lot working against it when it swung into theaters last year.
However, with the new mythos established and Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone set as the faces of Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy, Webb and company are able to swing wild with the upcoming sequel, Amazing Spider-Man 2. Today, the first official look of Jamie Foxx as the film's main villain, Electro, was revealed as part of Entertainment Weekly's cover story for the film. Casual Spider-Man fans might be turned off by the cosmetic changes made to the Sinister Six villain, but diehard webheads might catch Electro's similarities to his Ultimate Spider-Man incarnation of the character.
May 2, 2014 is the proposed release date for Amazing Spider-Man 2. Do you think you'll be ready by then?
