Watch: New Times Square Clip From THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 !

And the clips just keep on coming! Here's the latest from Sony for THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 featuring the Times Square showdown between Electro (Jamie Foxx) and Spidey (Andrew Garfield).

Watching this - keep in mind that one of Spider-man's abilities is precognition in his spidey-sense. So it may seem like he is moving impossibly fast, but in actuality the lore has him seeing what will happen and acting before it happens. Makes for an incredibly cinematic moment when time is frozen or in slow motion.

Can't wait for this movie. Spider-man has always been my fav superhero since I was 4 years old. Here's hoping the franchise kicks it up a notch.

Here's the storyline from the movie:
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 2 opens on May 2 in 3D, IMAX 3D and flat.

First Look: Jamie Foxx As Electro! Leaked Set Pics From THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2

Wow! Jamie Foxx looks like a villain to be reckoned with in these shots and they aren't from the movie - just BTS (behind-the-scenes).

Electro is one of my favorite bad guys from the Spider-man menagerie of mayhem so I'm thrilled that he's looking so good here. I thought The Lizard wasn't quite up to standard in the first Marc Webb reboot, so I'm on the edge of my seat to see what he's doing here in the second.

This second effort from Webb is not being shot in native 3D due to Webb's desire to shoot in anamorphic format. It'll be post converted into stereoscopic 3D. I'm not on board with that decision as I thought his use of the Red Epics and 3ality Technica's rigs in the first go was stellar.

Here's the movie's storyline:
In THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2, for Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield), life is busy – between taking out the bad guys as Spider-Man and spending time with the person he loves, Gwen (Emma Stone), high school graduation can’t come quickly enough. Peter hasn’t forgotten about the promise he made to Gwen’s father to protect her by staying away – but that’s a promise he just can’t keep. Things will change for Peter when a new villain, Electro (Jamie Foxx), emerges, an old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, and Peter uncovers new clues about his past.

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 opens on May 2.

Paul Giamatti As The Rhino In THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2?

Looks that way! Paul Giamatti is apparently in talks to take on the role of The Rhino in Marc Webb's THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2. The Rhino would join Jamie Foxx's Electro for villain duties. Dean DeHaan is joining as Harry Osborne.

Here's Giamatti on the character: “I thought Rhino was the greatest thing when I was a little kid,” he told ShowbizSpy in March 2011. “It was a guy who was basically in this rhinoceros outfit, and I always thought, ‘Why don’t they have The Rhino in one of their movies.’ But maybe The Rhino wasn’t that big of a deal for anybody but me. … If they ever go with The Rhino, I would be ready and waiting.”

He also talked about the character on Conan: “The Rhino was fantastic," he said. "He was, like, a Russian guy. He was real fast, and he hit stuff real hard."

So apparently Giamatti has been anxious to play the role for some time now - that is ALWAYS a good sign. At first look I was a little hesitant but after hearing his exuberance to play the part - all the power to him. Shooting is slated to begin in February.
