As a parent of a child who passed away really young in the hospital, it always warms my heart to see these stars be real heroes and rolemodels and make these kids days a little better. It probably means so much to those kids to see Spider-Man in person. Tom Holland seems like a genuinely nice kid, I'm really looking forward to Spider-Man: Homecoming

Top notch. He looks a little like Ben Savage in a side profile. Or Fred. Whichever was Boy Meets World.

When Chris Pratt finished filming GotG he stole a full costume because he always wanted to be able to dress up and visit a children's hospital.

When Pratt and Evans had their Super Bowl bet (the loser showed up in full costume at a children's hospital in the town of the winner) they both showed up to both hospitals anyway.

And were then promptly chased out by tiny, cute sports fans for liking the opposite teams.

I mean yeah, if you've watched enough Disney shows to formulate any kind of valid opinion of her being good for the role go for it. Likewise if anyone has watched enough Disney shows to think she's terrible then go for it. But don't be surprised when you get weird looks for watching Disney shows made for little kids. I think most of us have no idea about her ability because we don't watch that stuff. If you're just going to base your opinion on looks that's kind of just as bad as the people saying Gal Godot isn't big enough for Wonder Woman. Just because someone matches a role visually or not doesn't mean they're good casting for a role.

I read somewhere that Evans only really embraced being Captain America when he became friends with Chris Pratt and they did the hospital visits together. I don't know if that is true but it is a nice story.

I actually watched KC Undercover when I was babysitting my step niece last fall. She lives it and Zendaya is a perfectly fine actress. Also Carla from Scrubs plays her mom!

And like I said elsewhere, Zen is the first NJ who actually looks like she could grow up and be a super model.

As long as MJ's plots aren't "I want to be an actress!" and long terrible scenes of her strugged that feel more at home in a chick flick than a superhero movie.

Actually, that's probably why they were there; "Something for the ladies!" some old out of touch exec at Fox told Sam Raimi

Possibly leaked Spider-Man: Homecoming call sheet.

Most notable is Tiffany Espensen as "Cindy", so if they're legit bringing Cindy Moon into the MCU this early on that'll be pretty loving fantastic.

Why she doesn't bike it? Because she can just websling to where she's going!

(I briefly forgot who Cindy Moon was and got that stuck in my head looking it up)

Maguire was a fantastic Peter Parker imo

really got the "this dude is a huge nerd" thing down

though some of it is definitely the attention to detail by the set designers- look for the period appropriate Magic: the Gathering posters in his room

When I rewatched the first Spider-Man movie a while ago, what struck me was that it had way more slow motion stuff and weird zoom-ins, and Tobey Maguire pulls some pretty strange faces.

Raimi will never top what he did here, though.

It is very easy to forget those gigantic big money superhero films were directed by Sam Raimi, until you actually watch them again.

I remember shortly before the first Spider-Man movie came out my local-ish newspaper published an article that was wringing its hands over Maguire looking too nerdy for the part. I've always quite liked the cast (except for maybe some choices for the third movie), but I'm not really a good judge of acting.

Kirsten Dunst had very little to work with in those movies, the scripts treated MJ very very poorly, especially in the sequels. She did her best, considering.

Aphrodite

I remember reading for the 3rd one she asked if Mary Jane could not be kidnapped and spend the whole final act screaming again, and so they put in Gwen Stacy.

And then they rewrote the last fight to make it Mary Jane again.

The part where MJ tries to hide her diner uniform from Peter is one of my favorite moments in any superhero movie.
