I mean the action scenes. In particular everything Spider-man does. Doesn't look real to me for some reason, like watching a video game cutscene.
^agreed. They wanna keep pace with Spider-Mans abilities in the comics with out watering him down. They will need a lot of CGI. Its one of the down falls of making a superhero movie I guess. That end part of the trailer was obviously entirely CGI but it also completely embodied Spidy's movements from the books.
Don't have any beef with CGI. Spiderman in this series is shaping up to be much quicker and agile than his Raimi counterpart.
The problem is that those superior stunts are coming at the cost of substance. You need practical effects mixed in with the CGI, otherwise you get Man of Steel fights; blurs of CGI fighting each other on CGI backgrounds. Fun, but not memorable. Compare Raimi's fights with ASM's. Spidey vs. Doc Ock on the train is iconic. I doubt anyone can remember specific events of Spiderman's fights with the Lizard beyond all the ****ing flips he was doing.

I know what ya mean but its hard to portray someone with super powers by using real effects. Especially when who they are trying to portray has super agility and is widely known for dodging.
As for AS1 I recall the fight with lizard in the school and at the end really well.
TASM actually went the route of not using CGI for every Spider-Man shot, and just doing some good old fashioned stunts.
The whole scene where he's running from the cops and swinging across the bridge was all just a normal stunt. And Webb said he wanted some regular stunts in it instead of just CGI everywhere.
But I personally didn't like that and prefer full CGI for Spidey. Because the main thing is to show how agile and flexible he is, and to show him dodging all sorts, something I felt was really lacking in Ramai's movies.
Spidey cracking jokes in AS2.
I laughed the hardest at Emma Stone though.
"PETER!"

Trailer for the game
i actually enjoyed the first game, despite it having bug where you lose your save game/
Originally posted by StiltmanFTWYeah it was. But SM2 introduced free roam which is a must have in a SM game. Plus all the spider powers from comics.
SM game with Gargan as the first boss was the best 😎SM The Movie 1 wasn't bad either.
Except Toby's voice acting. Best part is you could play as Green Goblin. Also he had a super speed run button. I sometimes used to pretend I'm playing as Quicksilver. 😮
