A Russian website revealed a new The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and good Lord it's glorious:
I need to find some of these posters because I simply
need them hang on my wall. This seems to be a variation of the previously released poster we've seen earlier this week, but I simply can't get enough of how amazing both of them look.
They seem to be inspired by this classical Mark Bagley's Spider-Man splash page:
The marketing campaign for
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 leading to the May, 2nd release date has been nothing short from stellar so far, while Warner Bros disappoints yet again, showing they have no clue what to do with a whole universe of superhero characters. Sony seems to be single studio in town - other than Marvel Studios, obviously - that seems to have an actual plan for their movieverse.
As a superhero fan from both Marvel and DC Comics characters, I just wish Warner Bros was as bold as Sony is and acknowledge that DC Comics characters are worthy of getting a movieverse treatment similar to what Disney is doing with Marvel Studios and Sony themselves are doing with Spider-Man: get talented, invested and passionated people involved with the production of these films and step away to make the best film possible.
I believe
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 can be one of the best superheroes films yet because of this very reason. That and the fact that they seem to have knock this one out of the park. If only DC Comics characters would have the luxury of having other studios but Warner Bros involved with their characters, maybe we would be getting something other than Marvel related films when it comes to Comic Book Movies in the upcoming years.

Official Synopsis: "We've always known that Spider-Man's most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.
It's great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there's no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp."
The Amazing Spider-Man's greatest battle begins in May 2nd, 2014.
