New Spider-Man 3 Poster
Ok, it’s no big secret that I wasn’t in love with the Spider-Man 3 trailer that came out a few weeks back. It was ok… but nothing to write home about in my opinion (I know that the vast majority of you disagree with me, but that will happen sometimes).
The good folks over at Superherohype have put up a brand spanking new Spider-Man 3 poster now, and it totally sucks too.
KIDDING!
Actually I freaking LOVE this poster. It’s detailed, yet minimal and says everything that a poster can possible say without showing much at all. I LOVE this poster. Probably the best movie poster I’ve seen all year. I know they’ll change it, but I hope they make this the final poster for SPider-Man 3. I’m already searching the internet for where I can buy a copy of it.

To be honest, I like this poster more than the Transformers poster.

You didn’t mention that it fades in and out from black to red as you move past it. BEAUTIFUL POSTER! JUST BEAUTIFUL!

Yes it is lenticular. Maybe if I see it in action I’ll change my mind.

It’s the best teaser poster they have had to date on this film. While there have been posters in the past that have the hero’s logo (like Burton’s Batman, the recent Superman Returns) this -along with the effect- is outstanding. Will it be the final one? No. I’d like it more if the bottom half of this were covered in sand…
But I’d frame it.
And…yes. That advance teaser wasn’t all that freat except for the symbiont crawling up Spidey’s arm, Sandman taking out pedestrians and the LOTR shot.

I really don’t like this poster. The old one was way too much better. I don’t like posters that tells nothing and like really plain.

what’s with the two right front legs of the spider? they do not match the left side, and there are “ghosts” of the legs that would match up????

People have been wondering why the Spider-man movies are a notch above the other big superhero vehicles out there (Superman, Batman) and they make 40 million dollars on opening day instead of 18 or 15. I think it’s the same reason why a bottle of Coke you just opened tastes better than one you closed, put back in a fridge for a while, and decided to reopen. Spider-Man 3 is our generation’s Return of the Jedi. We are living this franchise as it was created from scratch and don’t have previous conceptions of joy (Superman/Batman 1 & 2) or disappointment (Superman./Batman 3 & 4). We relate to Spider-man as something that became a phenomenon in 2002, post the 9/11 attacks where New York needed a hero to cheer up everyone and fill them with hope and strength.
The battle of the trilogies is gonna be intense in May 2007… 3 weeks, 3 3’s. (Spidey, Shrek, Sparrow). I bet that the symbiote will infect the box-office first and take back the opening week-end crown.

I love it!
And this provides yet another reminder of how poor the poster/one-sheet campaigns for ‘Superman Returns’ was. Not that it would’ve necessarily made a difference, but it seems like so much more could’ve been done to stoke anticipation among theater-goers and the general public by dropping some clever, subtle posters months before the release date.
Marvel - especially when it comes to the Spider-Man franchise - seems to get this much better.

Does anybody else see the remnants of other legs on the spider on the right front side? What’s up with that? And why aren’t the right and left sides symmetrical? Is this actually the finalized teaser poster??? It looks unfinished to me…
15. jeff replies at 17th July 2006, 9:09 am :
well? maybe I’m the one that’s messed up…
16. Gordon Shumway replies at 17th July 2006, 4:25 pm :
Its because the spidey logo on the black suit has more accentuated legs, so some of them are from the old design and some belong to the black one if you follow. As for those remnants of other legs, they make me think this could be a moving hologram poster, and this is like a screen shot of the transission.

i love your trailler but how you come like blach with the slim SPIDER-MAN
18. Helen replies at 19th July 2006, 9:58 am :
Yeah, it’s not very attractive. I agree with you.
19. You're Crazy replies at 20th July 2006, 2:38 am :
John,
You’re clinicall insane.
You like this poster, even though it says nothing at all except that there is a black suit and a red suit, possibly two separate entities.
But you don’t like the trailer which showed Harry as a Goblin, evil Spidey, Black Spidey, Sandman and black goo?
HAHA
You’re insane. Clinically speaking.
20. John Campea replies at 20th July 2006, 4:39 am :
Hey “You’re Crazy”
HAHAHA… So let me get this straight. Are you saying you don’t understand the difference between a trailer and a poster?!?!?!
That’s like saying “How can you not like the Spider-Man 3 trailer, and yet like the Spider-Man 3 McHappy Meal at McDonalds? That Burger and Fries didn’t tell you anything about the plot!”
The two are different things, meant to serve differnt purposes, and therefore have two different sets of criteria to determine if they’re good or not.
If you don’t understand that… then I don’t know how to help you.
Cheers.
~John

don’t understand how some of you don’t like the new spiderman 3 poster…it has a hologram effect which from one view you see spiderman and the other view you see venom…it says so much, and yet its simple….i love it and want to buy one
24. dave replies at 24th November 2006, 1:53 am :
i just want everyone out there that sees that poster and says YEAH VENOM!!! to know that it is not the venom suit when spiderman wears it. When Eddy Brock puts it on then HE becomes vemon….When spiderman has it he is simpley black spderman so dont get all happy any think vemon is in it….if he is it will probably be right at the end when the other guy gets ahold of it
25. daniel replies at 26th November 2006, 6:44 am :

Cool poster but kind of plain. I found a site that has a cool double sided poster. I think its like 24×42 inches. I bought one for a collectible.
