Pretty much as premiered last night at Sony’s The Untold Story special events, here’s the first full trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man. This time there’s Lizard, there’s more back story and there’s a good sense of the “new” Peter Parker. I say “pretty much” because those of usat the events got to see it in…

For the most part, this post is going to be verbatim quotes from Mark Millar so I hope the voice in your head can do a good impression of him. Mine struggles with Millar a bit, I have to be honest.
I am writing the comic book right now. Matthew Vaughn is directing X-Men: First Class, which he will be doing until about April. I will have finished writing the new comic by Christmas. Then, in April, we will begin working on Kick-Ass 2: Balls to the Wall.
Er… I thought Millar and Vaughn were doing a Superior movie next year?
I am writing the sequel as I always planned it to be. The actors may be a little bit older, or bigger. They can address that in the movie.
[Hit Girl] is going to be like Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven, where she hasn’t picked up a gun in years… Halfway through the movie, or the comic, we will follow her as she picks up a gun again. It is going to be awesome.
[Red Mist] heads off and develops his martial arts skills. He learns how to become a better villain. That type of thing. He is going to come back and wreck unholy vengeance on our team. But in reality, he just comes back and gets stoned, and he spends a lot of money. He can’t do anything, so he hires this bad ass girl from Russia, she comes into the story, and her plan is to kill Hit Girl. Red Mist becomes like Charles Manson. He goes on-line and influences a bunch of young villains to go against Kick-Ass and Hit Girl. The whole thing ends up as a big gang fight like you’d see in The Warriors. There is going to be a big gang fight in the middle of Times Square between all of these costumed heroes. And at the head will be the Red Mist and Hit Girl.
When he finishes that in April, we are definitely jumping straight into Kick-Ass 2: Balls to the Wall.

I think [American Jesus] is going to remain in development Hell. Several people came forth to talk to me about American Jesus, and they wanted to make so many changes. Jesus movies are really hard for Hollywood.
That was all skimmed from Movieweb, who have plenty more on American Jesus and a little bit about the X-Men. In order to provide the voice of their interviewer, my mind went for a young Patrick Allen.

Here’s the new TV spot for The Avengers as premiered during the Superbowl – just, longer now. And that’s a good thing.

Is it Spider-Man? Or has Iron Man just got a fancy new paint job? This is the costume he’ll be wearing in the upcoming Ends Of The Earth storyline, as the machinations of Doctor Octopus and the Sinister Six are made clear. There’s webbing design on the lining as well. Related Posts:Spider-Man’s New Costume Gets…
When reporting early rumours about Before Watchmen, almost every name I was given turned out to be true – Darwyn Cooke, Brian Azzarello, JMS, Amanda Conner, JG Jones, Andy Kubert, Joe Kubert, Adam Hughes and John Higgins. There was another name that I dismissed as it was denied directly – that of Kevin Smith. His…
