peter parker is a dweeb.

[The Saltman]

We all hate u Scrum.

[Mr. Scot]

He looks like a generic version of one of those dippoos from twilight

I think you've just hit on the reason he was cast (ugh).

Yeah, he could turn out good (Maguire did) but I'm not betting on it. Worse, the way things are these days, I have a feeling the next flick will be more like Emo Man than Spider Man.

[Porn Shop Clerk]

Can it really be as bad as Topher Grace for Eddie Brock?

I doubt it.

[Happy Panther]

He looks like the peter parker from the comics I collected in the 80's

[Porn Shop Clerk]

Peter, have you ever had another man inside you?

[Mr. Scot]

Can it really be as bad as Topher Grace for Eddie Brock?

I doubt it.

That was absolutely awful.

[xooberon]

Scrum is just looking out for a fellow ginger.

The strangely logical choice of Andrew Garfield

The 26-year-old Garfield beat the fan favorite (“Percy Jackson and the Olympian’s” Logan Lerman), the emerging action star (“Terminator Salvation’s” Anton Yelchin), Hollywood’s dweeb du jour (“Kick-Ass’s” Aaron Johnson) and others.

The selection of the darkhorse Garfield is certainly a triumph for director Marc Webb (“(500) Days of Summer”) who has a sensibility that favors the emo and the introspective — the very skills Garfield brings.

But subtle sensitivity is beside the point for some skeptics, who have, among other things, raised concerns about Garfield's age. A 26-year-old playing a teenager, as Garfield will here, poses not simply a cosmetic issue but an acting one. No matter how young someone looks, an actor in his mid- to late 20s may simply have too much life experience to persuade an audience that he is on the cusp of adulthood.

And then there’s the question about whether Garfield can, as the expression goes in Hollywood, fill the suit. Few doubt that the actor will bring the vulnerability to the Peter Parker part of the role. But the question is whether he can bring the brio and swagger to the Spider-Man side. Good actors can star in all kinds of films, but superheroes demand a different quality: presence.

This...is gonna suck...big time :nonod:

This might be worse than Brandon Routh as Superman.
