Opinions?

It should be also interesting to know that Robert "Edward Cullen" Pattison is also considered for the role as well.
I wonder why so many people want a reboot in the first place (reading comments from imdb). Tobey Maguire is the only Spider Man in my mind.

Well I've always thought Tobey Maguire should've been replaced, but certainly not by Zac Effron.
Their casting is often poor. Looking back at Spiderman 2, the guy who played Eddie Brock was ... so wrong. A tiny, weasel of a man, nothing like the Eddie Brock and Venom I know and love.
Zack Effron wouldnt be a terrible move, he can act and he's popular but i don't think he fits the legendaryPeter Parker specs.
Anyone else feeling like burning a spider alive right now? I will never watch those movies ever again.
NO! I knew it would be a disney runt. I hope this isn't true. Tobey will always by spidey to me, on the screen anyway. =(
You know, if it wasnt for High School musical, people wouldnt be so negative about him as spiderman :P but hes generally a good actor i must say. Saw him in 2 movies and the guy can act.
Isn't he too young? Tobey Maguire is 12 years older.Bourbons3True, but they're trying to go for a high school Spider-man, he'd probably be the right age for it.
My thoughts.Peter Parker is a nerd, not a super dreamy hunky hunk for all the pre-teen girls to drool over.

you guys should really stop hating Robert Pattinson :|
most of you are thinking about his role in twillight while all of you forget about the other movies he's made.
His acting twillight is HORRENDOUS. i'll admit that i too used to hate him but after watching a movie called "HOW TO BE"
i realized that he REALLY isnt a bad actor and he's actually a pretty humble guy. Its hollywood thats posed up his big star persona.
just be glad it isnt one of the jonas bros playing as spiderman :)
Who would have thought Batman movies would get better, while Spiderman movies get worse.metallica_fan42
hahahah disney type people are ruining good names of great things first vampires and wolves and now spider man when will this end
also disney DID buy marvel
At first I was like: "Oh, god..."
But then I was like "He can't be worse then MacGuire...."
But honestly, I don't really care who's gonna be Spiderman, as long as they keep JK Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson. He was @#$%ing brilliant.
WE all should of seen this coming. The evil plan by Disney :?Ain't Spider-man suppose to the skinny nerd getting picked on, I don't think Zac can play that role well
But worst is to come "They are also believed to be considering reuniting Zac with his High School Musical co-star Vanessa Hudgens"
They seem be keen on making it Spider-man and High school musical crossover
