The Amazing Spider-man: Marc Webb Promotes "Spidey Vision" (Video)

In a video interview with MTV, the director explains why it was important to show the audience the first person view that you see a glimpse of in the trailer.

The director explains that what you saw in the trailer is just a hint of what is in store for the viewing audience when the film hits theaters next summer. I was hoping that was more of a gimmick for the trailer, but sadly the copycat effect of Mirror's Edge will have a more prominent role in the movie. I for one get motion sick very quickly and still remember running to the bathroom during Blair Witch. I guess I'll be knocking back dramamine like they're orange tic tacs.





"[There] are also moments we really wanted to embrace this experiential process of 3-D," Webb told us about Spidey Vision while at San Diego Comic-Con. "The teaser is a hint at some of that."


"We shot and conceived of this film in 3-D," he said, "and I wanted there to be moments where you really feel and see the world through Spider-Man's eyes. I wanted to get that visceral feeling. In 3-D, I thought there was something about the experiential process, in a big theatrical environment, that was really special that I had seen before. I was like, 'If I'm going to do a movie in 3-D, I want to give the audience that experience."



The Amazing Spider-Man focuses more on Peter Parker’s high school days and the development of his powers while navigating the troubles of a brainy geek in high school. And starring Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Denis Leary, Rhys Ifans, Martin Sheen, and Sally Field, the films swings into theaters July 3, 2012 in 3D!

Hmmm I suggest taking tums and advill and whatever they may have for sea or motion sickness. The teaser was annoying enough. Hope the keep all that minimal.

Ummm cool.....better just be in some webswinging parts and fighting The Lizard. That is all they should use it on....and only like maybe 3 or 4 times in the whole movie.

I'm a 3D fanatic. But it pains me to see directors do it wrong. Glad to see Mr. Webb understanding the reason I and many others go to see 3D, the experience. POV probably just used to show Peter testing his powers and express his freedom.

It wasn't just the perspective that made it video-gamey imo. It's the blatantly CGI buildings and surfaces.

Oh boy... another reason to be nervous about this film. I hope I'll be disappointed.

I mean, I hope my feelings of fear and nervousness about this movie will be disappointed. I never did like Tobey as Peter, but I would have preferred a part 4 (with Andrew Garfield) as opposed to another remake.

TeddKGN that just makes me want another live-action Spider-Man tv show. This time one that actually followed the comics and made sense. Hammond though was a good Parker looking guy.

I'm sure they'll use it tastefully. This isn't some cheap b-movie like Friday the 13th 3-d where they'll be poking sticks at the screen and shit. If it was conceived and shot in 3d it will be similar...but better, than Avatar...at least as far as the 3d is concerned. And before you even start with me, I'm NOT saying Avatar was good...I'm referring to JC's gimmick free use of the 3d tech.

I think the first person view will be epic. I bet when everyone sees the "spidey vision" it they will change their minds.

It seems I was right. And don't fear guys. He shot this film with Red EPIC 3D cameras, and James Cameron consulted him on the process. The 3D in ASM is going to be some of the best yet. These scenes could look very impressive in 3D.

Another reason to watch in IMAX! Sure you'll probably get motion sickness if you don't play video games (Portal for example), but it's meant to make you feel like YOU are Spider-man which is really what the comic is all about. Peter Parker and his social situations are meant to be relatable. Spider-man is the fantastic side of the equation. Peter is what we ARE, Spidey is what we WANT to be. So, if the movie is shot in first person, we become Spider-man. It fits.

Why should you see it in IMAX in 3D? Just imagine the depth of looking down 100 stories or having the Lizard's slimy chompers up in your grill. Epic.
