Tom Holland IS Spider Man

[Mr. Scot]

Stan Lee himself said watching Tom Holland as Spider Man was like seeing someone who'd been born specifically to play that part.

All due respect to Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield (much less to the latter, in my opinion) but this kid absolutely owns the role.

Looking forward to next year's stand alone...

I love upsetting fanboys. I'm going to go jerk off to Aunt May since that really upsets them.

I'm curious to see who Donald Glover is playing

[Mr. Scot]

I questioned the Marisa Tomei thing, but the rationale behind it is solid and after seeing Civil War, the chemistry between her and Holland is great.

It works.

I'm in the minority but I would have rather them kept Garfield and that continuity. At least then we'd be closer to getting Venom, Carnage, and Kraven like I've been wanting forever.

Ummm they're still going with their Sinister Six movie.

[Mr. Scot]

If the finished product is anywhere close to that online script that leaked a little while back, it's going to be fantastic.

I just want that sumbitch Mysterio on screen.  He'd actually fit in with a campy PG13 thing.

Ughhhhhhhhh

A new franchise ruined it even got started. I feared Zendaya's casting would mean she got the Mary Jane role. I was right.

lol

[Mr. Scot]

Just saw that.

Not a fan...

Its not confirmed yet who Zendaya is playing but if its Mary Jane then I think its a good role..Shes what you're looking for if you're wanting this franchise to start young like Marvel wants it too. Get some distance between the last two reboots. Marvel wants its own thing

Mary Jane is not an important role, imo. She's a love interest. The movie is about the hero. Cast whoever is pretty.

I mean Kirsten Dunst has acting chops out the butt, she was amazing in Fargo and everything else. But her Mary Jane was a bullcrap awkward mess. Whenever I saw her and Toby McGuire on screen it never seemed genuine, it seemed like two indie dorks who couldn't believe they were doing a lame comic movie.

[Mr. Scot]

Update: The rumors of Zendaya being Mary Jane Watson are being shot down all over the place. Heck, Mary Jane may not even be in the movie.

It apparently is, however, true that Peter Parker's love interest will not be white. Specifically, it appears a racially swapped version of Liz Allen will be the object of his affection.

Apparently, no Gwen Stacy in the flick either but Betty Brant is there.

Depends on what Spidey timeline or universe they choose to go with.

MCU is pretty much a timeline to itself.

I mean, seriously...

[The Lobo]

Yeah, Zendaya said herself the other day she will not be a love interest. We don't know who is going to play MJ yet but it won't be her. Heck, Gwen Stacy was Peters first gal, I don't think they have said anything about her yet either. I do not think Zendaya will play Gwen either.

 

Marvel has nailed all of their movies. I have not been disappointed yet (I'm a huge comic nerd as well) Thor 2 wasn't top notch but it was still fun. Spidey is in good hands. He is Marvels pride and joy, they won't mess it up.
