Bit harsh on the girl who thought she was going to be MJ in Spiderman!

 

I read a suggestion that because they have decided to push her appearance back to the later films she will be unavailable for further filming hence the suggestion of a re-cast. Or it would just be a way of getting rid of her! :p Her 'appearance' didn't quite sit right with me, she didn't have that 'hot factor' I believe MJ is normally portrayed to have.

 

I hope this means I can see more of Emma Stone on screen!!! :love:

i really don't know where i stand on that, on the one hand i have no problem with the premise of a gay relationship a bi relationship or whatever. But on the flip side, i don't like it when they alter plots to things to shoe horn in something for an agenda, be it a LBGT agenda, a political agenda, a religious agenda etc, so i'd rather them not alter a major character in such a way just so they can do something thats "not even that ground breaking" according to Garfield

 

But I'm not keen on MJ never have been, she's always been a souless bimbo and i've never understood how a nerd would go out with someone like that especially given his original predisposed type was the nerdy girl type in Gwen. I can only assume that it was at the time something for the readers to show that anyone can get the prom queen, you know inspire children at the time, where as now the world is different and they are trying to move away from the trophy girlfirend towards the more independant and realisitic woman, which would be Gwen. So to carry out this idea it would mean flipping the spiderman love triangle mythos and making MJ/AJ the minor love and keeping Gwen, so we could see MJ/AJ be the one that dies on the bridge....assuming 1 it happened and 2 they didn't want to completely go mad and have gwen die and AJ be the love of his life, thus changing the character beyond belief, which i can see just about everyone not wanting, or certainly not without altering them to basically be a male version of Gwen, because i can't see them doing a trrophy boyfriend/girlfriend again, i mean they altered MJ to what was almost Gwen in the previous trillogy (and Gwen to basically MJ)

 

I hope that all made sense

 

TL: DR not sure where to stand, i don't mind but don't like shoe horned plot/character changes to tick agenda boxes

Does nobody else think that electro looks crap? Admittedly, it might look a lot better in movement as it's hard to see if his head is translucent and that glowing bit hovers around but from the stills, he looks like an advert for face painting.

There's some footage of him in the post above.

 

Yeah I'm not keen on the look atm either.
