And then they'll turn to...Who is the funniest poster on here? :hmm
 
Have to agree with that. That list is so uninspiring.
Imagine if the list had six actors, not five, and the choices were: Troye Sivan, Zach Mills, Nathan Gamble, Isaac Hempstead, Thomas Horn and Max Records.
What then?
 
Compared to Dylan, could Unger end up as an even worse pick for PP, acting-wise?

That's a rather odd thing to ask; what sort of silly person would support Dylan for the role if they didn't think he was the best choice , acting-wise?

It's between you, harryoscop, and Talion.

I think he wants to start a Dylan vs. Billy debate. :cwink:
 
Answer this. What happens if they're left unimpressed with the actors' screen tests?

They either keep screen-testing until they find the right actor (even if it means having to push shooting with Spidey's character back) or they make a last-minute offer to someone without screentesting them (in which case we would get a proven actor who might not necessarily fit into their plans long-term, but would keep things on schedule).

He isn't the best choice, acting-wise. Even his biggest supporters must admit to that. They only want him because he he's good at cracking jokes. .
Look at actual acting skills, and Dylan doesn't have much to bring to the table when he's put against Highmore, Sangster etc (even Lerman).

So... Dylan then?
 
Eh, maybe he's not the best choice, I'll admit that. But until Marvel chooses someone better I'm rooting for Dylan.
 
I'm not irrational, just protective -- especially in regards to what's been proposed thus far for the MCU Spidey. :oldrazz:



I remember something like that being mentioned, I believe it was it was in chronological order.

There's also this if you want to look at it.

hm. thanks man, but I can't really see anything on either of those.

surely marvel has a place to show the timeline in a more eloquent manner.
 
I would probably prefer Billy Unger to the names on the 'shortlist' which is saying something because I watched a scene of 'Lab Rats' and almost broke my neck cringing. Incidentally that Mateus Ward was also in the scene and was the villain. How people believe he was in contention for the role is beyond me.


What's everyones take on Mateus Ward? I thought I saw his name floating around here a few times.

As somebody who has watched Lab Rats since the beginning, the show does awful villains, my opinion of course, as I don't typically like the mustache twirling, OTT type. So yeah, Mateus was cringe inducing.

Outside of awful lines here and there, I haven't found Billy cringe inducing on LR, the only features I recall him being in, outside of DTV stuff, was one of the National Treasure films and one of the Crank films...I think his role as a younger version of Jason Statham's character was cringe inducing from what I remember...and I've read...

You really think they would rush something like that? You really think they wouldn't have done this in advance just because some supposedly reputable source is saying that it's just about to happen?
 
And then they'll turn to...Who is the funniest poster on here? :hmm
My votes on Dark Raven, she's so much funnier than anyone else.
It's between you, harryoscop, and Talion.
Funny as in they mean to be funny? Or funny because they do things which are funny but they aren't doing it to be funny but are being serious? Your choices seem like the latter. :p
DR is purposefully funny.
So... Dylan then?
Yeah, but he probably won't admit it. :whatever:
 
Pecola: I laugh at their posts the most, at least.

We might see something like what happened with the Thor casting:

Chris Hemsworth, 27, is earning great reviews for 'Thor,' director Kenneth Branagh's big-screen adaptation of the classic comic, but his 21-year-old brother Liam Hemsworth ('The Last Song') was actually up for the part first.

After poring over possible actors for months, Branagh settled on four to screen test, Liam among them. However, none struck the director's fancy, so he decided to return to square one and reassess some of the actors he'd looked at previously, including Chris. A few interviews, some screen tests, a supportive phone call from a powerful friend and a video audition tape made by his mother later, Chris had the part.
If the final five, whether they are the group claimed by Sneider or some other group, don't strike the fancy of the people casting, I'm assuming that that would be the first thing they do: go back and reassess the actors they looked at previously.

I am hoping this is what they do, if Sneider is correct, because none of those choices inspire any excitement in me.

He isn't the best choice, acting-wise. Even his biggest supporters must admit to that. They only want him because he he's good at cracking jokes. .
Look at actual acting skills, and Dylan doesn't have much to bring to the table when he's put against Highmore, Sangster etc (even Lerman).

No, I wouldn't admit that. Inasmuch any of them are better at dramatic acting, I attribute it to experience rather than any innate difference in talent and I think the difference is marginal at best. Even if I did, I would still argue that an actor who is good-enough at drama and excellent at comedy and improvisation is a better fit for the role than someone who is an excellent dramatic actor and a mediocre to passable comedic actor.

Nope, I would not admit as much because I don't believe it. O'Brien is the best choice.

Not saying he's the greatest actor ever or that no other actor could do better period, I am just saying for the role of Peter Parker, he would be the one to knock it out of the park and imo I see him embodying the portrayal as well as or even surpassing rdj as tony stark and hugh jackman as wolverine.

i've said this many times before. anne hathaway, tom hardy, and idris elba are all phenomenal actors, but I don't think they were the best people to do their respective superhero roles and that other actors could've fit the job better.
 
Regarding Anne Hathaway. She did a good job as Catwoman, but Eva Green would have been better.

Off-topic, sorry

right, that is exactly my point.

and my opinion, is that o'brien is the best man for this job.
