Yet he looks like a young Tobey:sas1:

:whoknows: most white guys with dark hair look alike breh..no offense to the white guys here with dark hair.

Either way, Feige has said several times now that the one thing they want to emphasize is the high school aspect and those stories along with the personality and comedian nature...Tobey couldn't land a joke to save his life in those movies. Andrew got close so hopefully the next guy can do the same

Yet he looks like a young Tobey who's last Spider-Man film will be 9 before when this Spider-Man debuts:sas1:


Why not Garfield:sas2:

Go ask Kevin and Amy breh, I really don't know..or give a damn. Just let him be funny and be a good actor. The direction and writing is going to be the more important aspect anyway

I'm asking you and you're ducking the question of why he looks like a young Tobey as opposed to a Garfield or just someone else:sas1:

Because I'm not a mind reader, hence me "ducking" the question breh lol. I can't answer a question I can't possibly know the answer to, so you can go ahead and think what you want or like I said, find Feige and Pascal, ask them. I'm sure they'd know the answers to your question

I've just never seen him be funny lol...that's my thing. I've never seen him be snarky in anything. He can act his ass off but I've never seen him be anything other than dour but I also know that doesn't mean he can't pull it off; that's what screen tests are for. I'd prefer one of the other cats but Sony/Marvel seem to have a hard on for him so :whoknows:

Not exactly sure how much control Marvel has over Spidey now but everything (pressure) seems to be on them. When thr dust settles this is the Marvel Spidey outing fans have been begging for. Plus mickie mouse and sony most def want the possible harry potter fame and money that could come with hitting the sweet spot of appealing to kids, casuals and comic fans alike by nailing this incarnation one of the most recognizable comic characters not wearing a cape.

Yeah it'll be an interesting behind the scenes feature on the blu ray for real. Just the amount of politics and jockeying. Clearly Feige is the big dog right now so I'd assume whatever he says goes even though Sony still has final approval.. But then there are rumors that state that that final approval isn't all its cracked up to be so I agree with you that it's mostly on their shoulders right now (Marvel/Disney). I just wish I liked their director choices more but maybe there's someone on the list who wasn't on the announced shortlist

Can't really talk about his acting though, never saw Ender's Game, he was alright in Hugo and the less said about the atrocity known as The Boy In The Striped Payamas, the better.

Did you see the new one with him and Ethan Hawke? I forget the name of it, I think it dropped in January but I've never heard it talked about much

No origin story is confirmed. BEST decision that they've made her regarding the new take on the character.


NO actor that Marvel has chosen has so far been miscast so if they think Asa is their guy then Im inclined to believe he'll be the definitive Spider-Man
