“I’m Electro,” Jaime Foxx states in this first moving look at the iconic Spiderman villain, “Bogey woogey woogey.” Ok, maybe he doesn’t finish the sentiment with that classic lyric line but, nonetheless, it is still somewhat interesting that the first official trailer that we’re getting from the film features Foxx’s Electro while not even give us a peek at Spiderman himself.
Used for The Amazing Spiderman 2‘s appearance at this years Comic Con, this promo suggests that the villain may play a more important role than a mere antagonist (think the Joker in The Dark Knight). While I hardly have the time and energy to remark on my feeling’s for the tepid rebooted franchise, I am hoping that it manages to deviate further from Sam Raimi’s original trilogy and puts more focus on the mysterious relationship between Peter Parker and his presumed dead parents.
