Okay, so it's not technically a video game blog, but I have to comment on the progress of the new Spiderman movie. After hearing the sad news that Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire would be leaving the films I was concerned and curious about how a reboot of the series would turn out. In some cases the reboots have been fantastic for the series; think about Batman Begins or X-Men: Origins. But it's a big gamble to take.
However, I've today learned more about the Spiderman reboot and the great news is that it's going to stick much more to the plots of the original comics (and hopefully therefore to the cartoon series I was engrossed by as a child!). Spiderman is getting back his web shooters (and hopefully some of the challenges of the original comics, when his web cartridges ran out!). He's also kitted out in a slightly less Lycra based costume and his love interest is going to be his high school sweetheart Gwen Stacey.
I'm looking forward to some teaser trailers of shots from the movie, but it could be a while as filming is currently in progress. I guess we'll be anticipating a release date next year.
