CALM DOWN ABOUT THE LIZARD PEZ DISPENSER

In case you haven’t been glued to the fanboy-shpere at all hours of the day, PEZ, the antiquated candy company, has unveiled their newest dispensers for next summer’s The Amazing Spider-Man. This might not seem like such a big deal, but in this process, they’ve provided us with our first clean shot of Rhys Ifans’s Lizard, which has been a tightly guarded secret. The reaction from fanboys has been tepid, at best.

A lot of people are against this look, and an equal faction seems to be in favor. But before we slam down our communal gavel in a condemning strike, let’s just face the facts, we’re not even sure whether or not this is the final film version of the Lizard. After all, PEZ dispensers aren’t always faithful to their source material. Remember their Star Wars tie-ins…Chewbacca looked like a fat, plastic hamster.

So, let’s not get too worked up about this cheap chachka. We’re getting a new trailer in December, according to the rumor mill, so let’s at least wait for that to debut before we get too worried.
