‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ and ‘The Avengers’ Almost Crossed Over! Mind’s Boggle At The Thought!

By Gregory Wakeman | June 14, 2012 @ 11:19 pm

It's safe to say that The Avengers has been the greatest success of the summer blockbusters. And by raking in over a billion dollars already from around the world Thor, Captain America and friends are now everyone's favourite movie ensemble.

The Amazing Spider-Man will be hoping to rival it's fellow Marvel comic-book in both it's box office receipts and critically reception when it's finally released on July 4th, and it actually seems like the two movies had more in common than people first thought.

Sony and Marvel were looking to connect these two franchises as The Avengers orginally possessed a direct reference to The Amazing Spider-Man, with the Oscorp building being part of Manhattan's skyline. Unfortunately it didn't work out due to time restraints but it's great that such a dialogue exists between the pair.

Of course, hopes have now been raised that these two films can at some point cross over. If so, I think Sony and Marvel might have a bit of a success of their hands.

Amazing Spiderman Featurette - The Lizard

Catch Rhys Ifans' Lizard in New 'Spider-Man' Featurette!

We don't really know much about Peter Parker's new nemesis in The Amazing Spider-Man aside from the fact that it's an extremely huge, dangerous, and grotesque-looking lizard. Columbia Pictures offered everyone a first look at the creature by releasing a few stills earlier this month, followed by the movie's third trailer which showed Spider-Man battling it out with the Lizard.

Still curious? We don't blame you. Aside from a few blurry shots of the Lizard and faceless stills, we still don't know much about it. But that's all about to change with this new Rhys Ifans featurette showcasing the one and only Lizard.

We all got a first look at Peter Parker's new enemy in The Amazing Spider-Man, the Lizard, a few days ago. No face shots of it though, leaked or official, as Columbia Pictures has done a pretty bang-up job at keeping the Lizard under wraps.
