Yep, definitely too soon for a reboot, or for even another Spider-Man movie for that matter. I'm a big time fan of the FPS video games and didn't like that portion of the trailer at all. If they really wanted to do something different, sure, but they should have kept it at less 10 seconds. What they displayed seemed like an eternity. We all know Spidey can swing from a web between buildings, why did we need to see that again in a trailer in any format.
