Anyone see the new Spiderman trailer at Comic-Con?

I heard they showed venom and sandman.

Yep. I posted a thread the other day about the new Venom pic. Supposedly all of Venom was shown and not just Venom over-taking Brock like the pic in the other thread.

Yeah, cause I *always* go to comic-con.

Raimi finally (and rather anti-climatically) confirmed that the new villains in the film are indeed Sandman and Venom, and that James Franco's vengeful Harry Osborn will not be playing either the new Green Goblin or Hobgoblin in the movie.

Raimi debuted never-before-seen footage from Spider-Man 3, although a good amount of it was unfinished. CG animatics were in place of final special effects sequences in certain places but the rough nature of the footage did nothing to deter the responses from the thousands of fans that saw it.

The footage, which was was cut as a trailer, begins with Peter Parker looking at his reflection in a mirror and then slowly revealing the new black Spidey costume underneath his street clothes. "All will be lost," we are told before we find Topher Grace's Eddie Brock praying in a church. And what is he asking of God? Why, to kill Peter Parker, of course!

The rest of the footage included battle sequences between Sandman and the police, as well as between Harry and Spidey. There are shots of love interests Mary Jane Watson and Gwen Stacy, as well as shots of both Peter Parker and Eddie Brock becoming overwhelmed at different points by the black symbiote suit. The trailer ends with the "money shot": the first look at the CG-animated Venom in all his vicious glory!

Fan reaction to this exclusive peek at Venom was through the roof. (Sadly, the panel only showed the new footage once.) Many of these wildly enthusiastic reactions were articulated during the Q&A session with Raimi and company that followed.

Yea, but i'm guessing he's hoping one of the 100,000+ geeks at Anandtech will have been one of the 80,000+ to have gone to comic con.

I almost went but had to cancel due to work

I stumbled across G4TV's coverage of it over the weekend. It was just as bad or worse as their E3 coverage (more self-promotion than coverage).

I scared my wife and myself a little bit when the girl on the show was pointing out all the costumed characters and said, "And we have Spiderman and Storm over here." They showed "Storm" and I said, "That's the Black Cat, not Storm....oh, God I'm such a geek."

Comic-con sincerely needs lots of Triumph the insult-comic dog.

Dear God the quality is horrible with those. It is so out of focus I can barely see anything.
