Twitter Campaign Wants 'Community' Actor to Be First Non-White Spider-Man

[Seamonk]

At least he's funny in Community.

Captain America should be a mixed race, asian/african/kenyan/hawaiin dude. :lurk5:

Also, Superman should be Mexican and Hulk needs to be from India.

Umm maybe he's white because he was white in the comic books.

I thought Nick Fury was a black dude in the comics?

the hulk shouldnt be green. in this day and age....i believe purple is a much better color for the hulk. green is bland. time for a change.

stupid right? then why isnt it stupid to change spiderman? hes white in the comics. he should be white in the movie. hulk is green in the comic. it would be fuging stupid to have him any other color in a movie.

[The Saltman]

like I said before, another Spiderman is stupid. Do something else....

in every comic book series except for "The ultimate universe" series, Nick Fury is white.

While we're at it, make Luke Cage white and see what happens.

hows it different? they are both characters with a back story, with a description, with a specific characteristic......the movie is being made based on that character with a story and character thats good enough and likeable to be made into a feature film....changing it is a dumb move.

To me its more comparable to spiderman classic blue/red costume not another person skin color.

And all of the things you listed..back story, with a description, with a specific characteristic..would all stay the same.Would his color ruin that?

Maybe it does not matter to me as much because I am younger. I grew up in the age of Spiderman more as TV show and not a iconic comic book character.

Terrible idea. Spidey should always stay white. If they want to use a black Spider-Man, use a different character with different name & costume. Just make him a friend of Spidey that has his powers too.

And there was a black Spidey, but it wasn't Peter or even in the Ultimate. He was only in it for just one book, "Peter Parker vol. 2, issue #35" which talk about a young black boy that is ignored by his mother & created an imaginery friend/father figure of a black Spider-Man. But we don't need that for the film. Just go with what have always been since 1962.

Who cares? I won't bother seeing the Spiderman reboots. There is no reason to start Spiderman over again, superhero movies are on their way out IMO and even if the 3rd film blew hard, the series doesn't need a reboot.

In other news, I heard they're coming out with a new Bollywood X-Men film.
