Spiderman's going to be Black

http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/movie-talk-twitter-campaign-wants-community-actor-to-be-first-non-white-spider-man.html

I like the Idea yet I don't I though Toby Maguire fit Peter Parker/Spiderman role perfectly I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens. And if he is the New Spider-man well just how this new actor plays the role.

You can just bet that this will cause an uproar!

And I still want Spidey 4. I don't want another series rebooted...

I really doubt it's going to happen. I recognize that guy from a few hilarious skits on collegehumor/derrickcomedy. He seems to be pretty talented, from what I've read about him.

Check him out in these: You can't watch the videos on this specific site, so just double click the video to watch it on YouTube.

No, just no

Goddamn it, this is ridiculous. And you just now that if anyone attempts to call bullshit he'll get called a racist

They do this for so many superhero movies it's not even funny. I've heard rumors like this since the 90s, when they wanted Wesley Snipes to be a Black Batman. Later, there were rumors that Will Smith would be Captain America (not Steve Rodgers, though), but the Black Captain America from the comic books.

They also want Djimon Hounsou to play Kratos in a God of War movie (ironicallly enough, Kratos' voice actor is Black).

The only time it has ever come to fruition as far a I know is The Avengers movie's protagonist Samuel L. Jackson playing Nick Fury. I couldn't care less, though. Ultimate Nick Fury's design is just Samuel L. Jackson.

Oh, and Jamie Foxx is playing Lynch in the Kaine and Lynch movie. I think he's playing Lynch, if that's the right character. He's playing the hick guy with the sunglasses and Hulk Hogan hairdo.

There is/gonna be a God Of War movie? Awesome.

Me and my buddy was playing GOD, we thought to ourselves "man, they should really make a movie with these games."

I don't know if there will ever be a God of War movie. I just know they're trying to make one. With the way the $200 million budget Prince of Persia movie turned out, I'm thinking Hollywood is going to want to put a hold on throwing tons of money at trying to adapt these games into movies.

Basically don't count on it. Not anytime soon anyway.

Ahh

YES

BLACK SPIDERMAN! THANK GOD YES YES YES YES YES YES! THANK YOU JESUS!

Have you been talking to those evil Jubb-Jubbs?

Don't forget about Kevin Michael Richardson playing the Kingpin in the Daredevil movie!

I think it could work if they get the right guy to play the part.

How do you figure it could work?

I mean, this is going a bit farther into this than the Aang or Goku cases.

Peter Parker is clearly a white american. Not much room for interpreting that another way. And they'll want to save their divergence quota for other important shit

LOl don't be hatin

Obama is here, so we have black superheroes for a change. I for one am happy

There are plenty of awesome black super heroes they could get. They don't need to go around turning white ones. It's...just wrong.

^ What black super hereos are there fried chicken man? Static Shock? Meteor-man seriously. But seriously it shouldn't matter the the color of the Super hero it'd be nice to see a black spiderman and an Asian Superman.
