speaking of bad casting, the best ive seen is Xavier in X-men, the casting for him was so dead on I would have thought the Xavier in the cartoon was inspired by the guy playing him in the movie

bad, id say cyclops

ugh it's like having a choice between gargling piss and eating a fart. at least keanu can stand there and look wooden though. will smith would have dragged the whole movie down my making neo some gayass wisecracking hero type. "what da hell?! you be tellin' me dere ain't 1999 up in here? dayum!"

And Ian McKellan as Magneto but largely in part because he plays such a great foil to Patrick Stewart.

Disagree with cyclops. The guy is good actor, but they made him out to be a total d-bag in the movies.

You're crazy, Raul Julia made that movie bearable, his cheezy one-liners were B-movie gold.

Spiderman 3 was just a horrible movie. The casting had nothing to do with it overall. It was just a disaster as a film.

Spiderman 1 and 2 = Good.

Spiderman = 3 unwatchable trash.
