Spider-man Fight Footage

[Ed Hocken]

Now I admit this is pretty neat. When have we ever gotten test footage of a pretty good quality from someone who did not get the role. (Eric Stoltz BTTF footage I'm looking at you)

Spider-Man Fight test footage

Now I'm glad they didn't go with the guy in the video Josh Hutcherson because he has the wrong kind of face for Peter Parker. Man's face is shaped like a shovel blade.

Looks too close to Raimi's flicks. I don't understand how Peter is able to instantly know how to fight. Bunch of bullshit. I want him to throw a punch at a bully and instantly make his head look like the dude from Scanners. Because that's probably what would actually happen.

[Ed Hocken]

That would happen if Spider-Man was written for Vertigo.

As to how he would know how to fight? Agility and shit?

But as I said, it's good they didn't go with this guy. It would have looked really off.

[Abraham Smashington]

Being super agile doesn't mean you automatically know how to throw a punch.

[Ed Hocken]

*shrug*

eh

[Abraham Smashington]

DON'T BACK DOWN FROM THIS. STAND YOUR GROUND.

Suddenly becoming super-strong and super-agile wouldn't make you BRAVE right away either. It's sure a good thing that Peter Parker didn't have a massive fear of heights, when you think of it.

[Abraham Smashington]

I'm just saying. Peter Parker is a nerd. He has super powers. But he's still a nerd.

[Ed Hocken]

DON'T BACK DOWN FROM THIS. STAND YOUR GROUND.

What ground? I'm enjoying this because we rarely get to see the test footage of someone who didn't get cast or got replaced during filming.

I couldn't give a sweet crap whether the right hook that Peter threw was in proper form or not.

That would guarantee my ass in a seat. He would totally be like Frankenstein with the little girl. Crushing Aunt May's spine with hugs.

[Abraham Smashington]

Totally. It's not about grittifying the property, but that always bugged me. IT's a stupid nitpick, but still.

[Ed Hocken]

That would guarantee my ass in a seat. He would totally be like Frankenstein with the little girl. Crushing Aunt May's spine with hugs.

That was attempted in Spider-Man: Reign where Mary Jane died because of Peter's irridiated sperm.

Yeah, that's not a good idea.

[Nathan]

WHY DOES THE HULK ALWAYS HAVE PANTS ON!?!?!?!!?!?!!!!

[Ed Hocken]

Simon Pegg said it best. Because it would involve seeing a giant throbbing green cock and that's not good for kids.

[Abraham Smashington]

That's also stupid.
