The trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man<\/a> has just been released and bears interesting comparison to the previous 2002 blockbuster version<\/a>.<\/p>\n

YouTube Doubler<\/a> is a website that allows you to play two videos at the same time and compare them side-by-side<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The two Spider-Man trailers make an interesting case study as they reveal the similarities and differences of the respective films.<\/p>\n

The 2002 trailer is snappier and has no problem featuring Peter Parker as Spider-Man, whereas as the 2012 one doesn’t really reveal the iconic suit until the very end in an extended POV epilogue, which appears to be a showcase for the film’s 3D visuals (the CGI looks like it needs to be refined).<\/p>\n

Notice how the lengths are almost identical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

For the record, I think the trailer for the 2002 film is much stronger, although it’s hard to fully judge until the new film comes out.<\/p>\n

The Amazing Spider-Man is out on July 3rd 2012, just 9 days ahead of The Dark Knight Rises<\/a>, which suggests Sony are pretty bullish about this film having a massive opening weekend.<\/p>\n
