Over the weekend, the internet was all abuzz over with rumors that Robert Pattinson would play Spider-man in the upcoming Spider-man reboot. Only problem with the rumor was that it came from a British tabloid, which also mentioned Zac Efron in contention for the role, and was probably based on this April Fool’s Day article. So rest easy, Robert Pattinson is not Spider-man. But ten bucks says they’ve at least considered Taylor Lautner. Meanwhile, QuietEarth says Armored/Kontroll director Nimrod Antal may be in line to direct:
The whole story goes like this: Sam Raimi met Nimrod on the Sony lot before his first US film, Vacancy. They clicked, so Sam hired him to direct Armored. Now, Predators is getting some great word-of-mouth around tinsel-town. Warners loves it and now Sam Raimi and Sony want the director back at the studio to helm Spider-man.
That’s good, Nimrod Antal would be a great choice. Well, maybe not great, but at least better than his brother, Dipshit Antal. Haha, get it? I did no research.

Farva is definitely on Team Nim-Rod.
In the Robert Pattinson version, Peter is bitten by one of his pet spiders.
The only good thing about that picture is that it looks as if you could push Pattinson and he would fall hundreds feet before slamming into the roof of a yellow taxi.

I’m no Toby McGuire fan, but Robert Pattinson pales in comparison.
Robert Pattison’s Spiderman has the shocker all wrong.
I kind of want this to happen, just because of the epic shitstorm it would cause.
Spider-Man fans complaining about Pattinson and the sudden influx of Twilight fangirls into the Spider-Man fandom; Twihards flocking to message boards to defend Pattinson; a rise in hilariously awful Spider-Man/Edward Cullen slashfic; etc.
Think of the potential, people.
Where does Chris Hansen fit into all this? Does he bait the predators with unrealistic temptation, then scold them in front of millions? Thanks Chris Hansen. You really made my 2009 a great year. On the bright side, I got to meet all my neighbors.
I have to imagine inverted brooding is going to be involved.
HEY FATSO! THIS PETER PORKER JUST PORKED YOUR GOOD LOOKIN’ FRIEND! THWIP THWIP THWIP! WEBBING IN THE FACE, SKANK!
That’s Some Prig.
