Spider-Man 3 Random Thought.

[Bob Schlapowitz]

I just watched Spider-Man 3 and a random thought occurred to me. Does anyone else think that James Franco would have been a much better Anakin Skywalker than Hayden Christensen was?

[Spankymac is sick of the swiss]

Franco's on the list, but there's a LOOOOOOOOT of people that would have been a better Anakin than Christensen.

A cardboard cutout of James Franco could have done better than Christensen.

I like who Franco played Harry exactly the same as Danial Desarno from Freaks and Geeks

[Kevin Hamilton]

That's EXACTLY what I said right when that movie came out. The fall is so much more believable.

Not trying to defend Hayden Christensen's terrible acting, but Franco had a LOT more to go on script-wise than Christensen. Anakin's biggest conflict was being too big for his britches, with the gruesome death of his mom almost an afterthought. Harry Osborn believed he saw his best friend kill his father. There was more emotional resonance. Also, the actors didn't shoot the entirety of Spiderman 3 in a giant blue box with tape on the walls.

That was the only redeeming feature of Spidey 3 for me. I kept waiting for Harry to refer to himself as a "punker" or Kim Kelly to show up and yell at Mary-Jane.

As would a cardboard cutout of Justin Long ...
