Andrew Garfield Talks About Being Spider-Man

Andrew Garfield Talks About Being Spider-Man: "

Actor Andrew Garfield spoke in an interview with London’s Captial FM radio station about being cast as the new Spider-Man character in Marvel’s “Spider-Man 4″ movie. The movie also stars actress Emma Stone and is set to release to theaters in the US on July 3, 2012.

Here’s what Andrew had to say:

I have to kind of not look at my face because it doesn’t make sense to me. I have to imagine that it’s a much better actor’s face in that suit. I won’t lie. I shed a tear when I first wore the spandex. I didn’t think that the spandex would make me so emotional, but it did.

Are you looking forward to the new Spider-Man movie?

The Disney Wonder Arrives in Los Angeles: "

UPDATE – New video added below of the Disney Wonder as it sailed into the Port of Los Angeles.

What an exciting day! The Disney Wonder arrived at the Port of Los Angeles early this morning and the ship is here to stay! This is BIG news for West Coast Disney fans. The ship will sail seven-night Mexican Riviera cruises from the Port of Los Angeles to Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta from now through April 17. It will then reposition to Vancouver and sail to Alaska from May 3-September 6 cruising to Tracy Arm, Skagway and Juneau, and Ketchikan. I’ve been fortunate enough to have cruised on Disney Cruise Line and all I can say is: YOU’VE GOT TO GO! It’s a Disney vacation experience at its best.

Check back this afternoon to take a look at video of the Disney Wonder as it sails into the Port of Los Angeles.
