Yeah, Maguire is a really great actor.

He plays the EXACT same role in every damn movie! The same quite, dopey introvert every single time! His Peter Parker is the same guy from Wonder Boys. It's pathetic!

You want to see real acting watch a chameleon like Meryl Streep or Tom Hanks.

Maguire plays spiderman the way he does, because thats the type of character the script calls for. And I also don't agree that he plays the same type of character in all his movies. In my opinion he is a very under appreciated actor, and I hope he doesn't get type-cast later in his life as that guy who did all the spiderman films. He was a great actor before he ever put on the spidey suit and he will be a great actor long after he takes it off. He brings a great personality to the spiderman role. And he may play a quiet dopey role in Spiderman, because thats the type of character peter parker is. If you think toby maguire is so bad, I challenge you to name another actor that is as dynamic and could do as good of a job in the role. When watching both spiderman films you really feel like he has the weight of the whole world on his shoulders...thats not an easy role to pull off!!! And I also heard you talking of criticisms with both spiderman films, and I have this to say. Yes there are always improvements that can be made to all great superhero action films, but you have to be reasonable to some point. Yes the spiderman films weren't perfect, but compared to the many other underwhelming lame superhero movies released in recent years....Spiderman is by far one of the elite films of the genre. I would easily site the spiderman films along with batman, batman begins, and the 1st two x-men films to be amoung the best superhero films made in the last 10-15 years. Are you opposed to Sam Raimi's direction with the spiderman films, and why? I think that he has a great vision for the spiderman universe and it's characters. I'm also curious...if you are opposed to the spiderman films, then what are some of your favorite superhero movies, that you felt were done right?

I say get Jake G for SM4, you know w/ his big eyes/eyebrows combo he kinda reminds me of Todd McFarlanes PP.

me neither.

I believe his contract is done after the third one as well....

Tobey signed up for 8 sequels, everyone else signed up for 3 at least.

ROFL... if TObey leaves after three they need to reboot the franchise... have MJ/Peter break up and find a new Parker... start off with fresh villains like Kingpin... etc... and get new supporting characters... I just want them to wrap it all up here but I won't be suprised if we get "Superman & Black Cat" or some sh:t for SM4... and it ends up like Batman did...

I highly doubt Tobey will leave after 3. Ok, maybe I exagerated a little back there , but I know he's signed on for more than 3.

Let me pull a Lex Luthor... "WROOOOOOOOOOOOOONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"... nah I can't see it... the guy will be like 33/34... I don't think he'll be back...

I'm almost positive that he only signed on for 3. Though I hope they get him back for a 4th. Not all of the original 4 superman films were all great, but at least Christopher Reeve was in all 4. When a good character is established, people want to see that character always play the role, and getting a sense of continuity. Anyway, I think Tobey would return for a 4th if they pay him like 40-50 million. Worst case...I just hope we don't end up like the Batman movies with a new actor playing spidey each film.

Why not? Alot of Batman fans think Batman Begins is the best Batman movie.

I think he meant consecutively like Keaton to Kilmer to Clooney to Bale.
I understand why Bale was cast but I kept getting pissed with the constant changing.

Thats exactly what I mean. Bale played an amazing batman, and I hope he is here to stay and comes back for many more. Just don't keep changing out the role each time. I was blown away by Bale's performance, so I'll be disapointed it he doesn't return.

I hate recasting in movies,
though I like Tobey as PP/SM, I think he's getting a bit old for the role...

 

[DACrowe]

I think after threee films to general audiences Tobey Maguire IS Spider-Man. If he's done after 3, the franchise (at least for 15-20 years) is done. Besides if we changed directors and leads, we all know what that leads to.

And Maguire nails Parker. His Spider-Man isn't the best on jokes, but when he is allowed to say jokes he delivers them decently enough and as the video games display he can be a wisecracking jackass. It is Raimi who (for better or worse) has jokes written in (there were 3 or 4 more in SM2) edited out because he thinks they undermine the visuals and action.

But between the Parker and when he is allowed to play Spidey in the video games....Maguire is a damn fine Spider-Man in the end then.

I agree. He's almost getting into his mid 30's which isn't completely a bad thing...but he has a pretty young face, which is why his pp/sm performance up to this point has been pretty believable...he was already like 28/29 when sm1 came out...so there might be hope. I have a feeling that SM3 is going to try and wrap things up and present some sort of closure...though I hope they don't. (lets not get the X3 syndrome) Anyway, if maguire comes back for a 4th, I will be happy and you won't hear a peep out of me after that. 3 is a round number but 4 just seems right to me...we got 4 superman films before a reboot. It might be unlikely that he will return being as how a SM4 wouldn't even come about until 2010...which would put him around 37/38 I think. Anyway...regardless if he doesn't return for a 4th, I hope they leave things wide open much like SM2...so they can pick the story right up with new actors. I hope Raimi leaves himself options to do a 4th.
