Original Spiderman trailer on DVD?

Sorry if I sound morbid or insensitive or whatever, but dunno if anyone remembers the original trailer for Spiderman that was out before September 11, which featured a helicopter being entangled in a huge web spun between the WTC?! Is this trailer scrapped completely or do you know/reckon it will be on the DVD when its released?! I thought it was a really cool trailer.

Cheers

TT

I reckon that it`s highly unlikely this will be made available on the DVD release, but no doubt someone somewhere will have kept a copy of it.

Try Google : remember, we can`t publish details of the best ways of getting "hard to find" stuff here, as it is in breach of Forum Rules.

Without giving too much away, maybe you should use a "searching tool" to find your trailer rather than a search engine. I use this tool for my MP3 searches with great success.

I read somewhere that after alot of thought Sam Raimi decided to leave the film uncut. now that scene was never meant to be if the film but just as a teaser trailer. He aslo said that to change/remove any scenes where the WTC could be seen would be disrespectful to the memories of those lost.
Giving this i would asume that that the dvd release would would have the all the original trailers.

Apparently, the twin towers can be seen in the reflection of spideys eyes in one scene. There is another scene as well where a TV crew are interviewing a bloke on what looks like a construction site - though it could have been ground zero (?)

I wonder. Not just about about Spider-Man though, but older films and tv programs like friends that have had a dvd release since Sepetember 11. Have any scenes where the WTC is clearly visible been doctored to remove the towers, like on the R1 release of friends.
