Still think NB would have been an ideal Spider-Man for the movie.
And Tobey Maguire won me over; don't get me wrong. But who does dorky-yet-heroic-and-also-quippy better than NB?
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Although, really, does either one of them look like a highschool senior? Tobey is a tiny bit more plausible, but they both left high school behind a long time ago.
But I do think NB hasn't had the chance to smoulder in a long, long time.

The movie *could* have skipped ahead to college, like the comics' original setting.

Thanks for all the fish.
The comic started with Peter in High School... But don't get me started on Gwen Stacey getting screwed over in the movie.
NB would have been perfect. Tobey made a decent Peter, but a lousy Spider-Man. He wasn't nearly quippy enough, and I blame that on Tobey's apparent lack of wit (based on the interviews I've seen of him where he comes across as quite unintelligent).

Bad on me.

He goes to Empire State University later, but it starts in High School. That's where all the stuff with Flash comes from.

I think I never read the very beginning then, believe it or not.
I don't deserve a pinky.

In fact, your pinkies are now forfeit to me. Hand 'em over.
