This year is promising to be an action-packed year for movies...at least marvel geeks expect it to be. From The Green Hornet, Spiderman, and The Dark Knight Rises, all of you superhero fanatics I'm sure are very excited.
For the Spiderman we already know Toby Maguire is out (since he gained like a hundred pounds in his last Spiderman....double chin much? ) and Andrew Garfield is in! Mixed emotions from the fans on whether or not Garfield would play a great Spiderman (is it just me or that sounded weird). There are a lot of opinions saying that that they want Maguire back and there are some who thinks that Garfield is fit for the role, no pun intended.
Here is a photo of Garfield in his Spiderman costume.
Like? Not? What do you think? I think a lot of people will still watch Spiderman just to see if Garfield gives justice to the role.
The Dark Knight Rises is the rise of Anne Hathaway as Selena Kyle also known as Catwoman. This I am not so sure of. Anne Hathaway has done a lot of commercial films such as Princess Diaries and Bride Wars so she might not be the right one for the role. But then again she also has done a lot more daring, serious, or mature movie roles and was nominated for Rachel Getting Married in 2008. A lot are happy that it is not Halle Berry (I raise my hand to that) but if you were to pitch to the film director on who should play Catwoman who are your picks?
Marion Cotillard, because she looks a lot more like Catwoman plus she has worked with both Tom Hardy (who is to play Bane) and director Chris Nolan in the movie Inception. Her only obstacle would be her accent, her French accent is still strong even when she tries to sound American.
ReplyDeleteI saw Andrew Garfield in Social Network and i think he did a great job. I think he's ok to play Spiderman.
ReplyDeletetoby maguire was great. garfield i hope, cud be better, i hope not for the worse.
ReplyDeleteAndrew Garfield's built and height is more like that of the spideys'. I think Pfeifer is still the best catwoman... But lets just see... And Superman (Death) is still on for 2012. We all gotta watch for that.
ReplyDeleteCant wait to see these movies! Though in spiderman, I think it wouldnt be the same if Toby wont be there anymore...
ReplyDeletei think the 'new' spiderman movie is based on Ultimate Spiderman, in which Peter is still in High school. This makes Garfield, with his 'teenager look', just right for the role.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that costume almost looks like a Spidey from another dimension. As for Hathaway, I haven't seen her in enough movies to know if she's right. She has the right look, but I don't know if the acting is there.
