If there’s one thing in the world I love, it’s comic books. (Should my girlfriend be reading this, sorry honey. It was close.) That’s why the past decade has been pretty great for me, what with all the spectacular super-hero movies that have come out, from Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man to The Avengers. Comic book movies starring DC Comics characters have been pretty good (Man of Steel notwithstanding), but Marvel characters have undeniably had some incredible runs (Fantastic Four also notwithstanding).
With that in mind, you should understand why I’m so hyped for this year’s crop, which consists of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy. The two couldn’t be more different, plot-wise; one is about a wisecracking teen who accidentally gives Jamie Foxx electrical powers, and the other is about Chris Pratt going into space to fight aliens. But they overlap in being utterly hardcore, and these new previews prove it. We just got a look at the new ASM2 TV spot, and the first trailer for GotG will premiere on Jimmy Kimmel tonight. UPDATE: It’s finally here! Click here to watch the full trailer. Luckily, we have an early preview of the trailer, so you can brag to all your friends that you saw it before it was cool. Check out both videos below, and let us know which you’re most excited to see in the comments.
