I was thinking of the scene from Scanners but that's more appropriate.

Also, Wild Wild West was not a good movie in any way, shape or form.

It had a giant steampunk cannon death spider.

OH MY GOD, YES.

And Lorenzo Lamas can be Doctor Octopus, with Dina Meyer as Mary Jane.

 As awesome as that may be, the roles are not terribly well filled. It's like trying to cast Samuel L Jackson as Spider Man. All you'll get is Jackson trying to play a nerdy kid, so he doesn't do his signature angryface and yelling. That is the entire point Jacks, to have shit go down in the best way possible. Spider Man just isn't the role for him unless there is a gritty reboot that does away with the characters history for something more favorable for the cast.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

If there's got to be a black Parker, I would like to see the guy who played that geeky kid in the Wire. Typecasting fun!
He should look a bit older now too, I think. Though he might also have lost his geekysism.

The guy that plays "Moss" In the I.T crowd, he's prefect.

He has a water bottle on his belt to spray his ear with when it gets hot.

I was thinking this myself, actually.

He's also hilarious.

"Hello. This is the soothing voice of your friendly neighbourhood Spiderman."

In other news, I was bored and watched the whole first season of Spectacular Spiderman last night. I've never been a cartoons guy buy it was pretty enjoyable. Also it is close to 2 pm. Eep.

You know.. he would make an awesome Batman. I can just imagine him say one particular line.  :D

I was just thinking this as well.

The thing is though, Moss is too good at being a geek. The moment he gets any self confidence it'll just be weird.

I can just imagine him stopping his crime fighting to spray his ear though.
