    OsCorp is going to be shown in "The Amazing Spider-Man"!! Not really a big deal but its good to know it's there and perhaps maybe foreshadowing the Osborn's appearing in the next film? Also has a pic of Emma as Gwen and Andrew wearing Peter's glasses.

    I thought this was already known through other promo pics, or am I just imagining things?

    Perhaps we get the equivalent of "Moriarty" from the Sherlock Holmes movie? We hear about Osborn and maybe he's the one funding Connors' work, but we never see him directly?

    I know other pics have shown The Daily Bugle on buses and stuff. I don't think they've shown OsCorp before now though.

    ^ I think the casting of that Indian actor (name escapes me now) as a character who, in the comics, went on to be a sort of proto-Goblin, led people to believe Oscorp would feature in the movies. But I don't think it was ever officially confirmed before now.

    Maybe Norman is the one who helps make the spider that bit him?

    Norman and Harry aren't cast yet...so who knows. All I know is that this movie is getting more and more intriguing.

    ^ Yeah and they kind of already used the genetically engineered spider thing in the first movie.

    Still impressed that they're doing so much practical stunt work on this movie.

    Looks like the director is hoping to avoid the rubbery cartoonish look that took over everytime Spidey started swinging around in the previous ones.

    I care enough to look at the new pics, but the older I get, the weirder it seems to me to spend months discussing/debating something that will take up two hours of my time a year from now. :lol:

    How bizarre considering the practical effects they are doing. You'd think this would be the most practical effect of all.
