Last week you may have seen a fuzzy image floating around of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 banner poster that will soon be hitting theaters. This poster featured the previously announced villain Electro, a better look at how Rhino would be portrayed in the film, and what appeared to be someone floating on a glider alluding to the Green Goblin (or possibly Hobgoblin).
Now, Sony Pictures has released an official and much higher resolution image of those posters via Twitter to scour over and scrutinize every detail including a better look at what does appear to be the new film version of Green Goblin, who up until now had only been rumored to make a possible cameo.
In addition to the poster, an official synopsis has been released for the film. Check out the synopsis and take a look at the banner poster for yourself below.
We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.
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 first official trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will be released on December 5th, 2013 and the webslinger’s next adventure hits screens everywhere May 2nd, 2014. But in the meantime, what do you think about three villains possibly showing up in the sequel?
WTF is that crappy excuse for a MECH on the right? Is that supposed to be the Rhino? Cuz if so, this will double the shittiness from the first film. This reboot sucks.

This just looks bad… So the Rhino is a robot/mech of some kind, Electro is a dude wearing a hoodie and this ‘Goblin’ seems more ‘Marty McFly’ than ‘Green.’ I liked the first film and its treatment of the Lizard well enough, so this is disappointing.
