They both aren't stunners but Kirsten had a better body.
And come on, Kirsten was somewhat attractive in SM1 days. This new chick just looks plain and average.
I'd honestly take old Kirsten to this new chick.

Eh, Kirsten is past her prime like Lohan, this new chick already looks average even before she hits the big screen.
No one was complaining much with Kirstens looks in SM1 because that was her prime, she was on the rise and she looks sexy as hell as a rich ***** in Crazy/Beautiful.
Again, easy to find ugly pics of Kirsten now but back then, every dudes jaw dropped in the upside down make-out scene with Kirsten.
Kirsten looks terrible now no doubt and it is hindsight being 20/20 but this new chick has yet to impress in the looks department and definitely has ugly pics too.
Old Kirsten SM1 days > Shailene so far.

This is from ten years ago.
It ain't hindsight.
When I heard she and Tobey got casted, I was disappointed.
A part of it is her looks, yeah. You can take a snapshot and find the ugly in anyone, but she just she makes hit faces all the time. She's not a good actress and the way she acts can just be unflattering all the time. When they gave her much less to do, like Virgin Suicides and Eternal Sunshine, she's okay.
But when they push her upfront.
That's what I liked about them casting Shailene. Yea, she looks like an average teenage chick, but she seems to be a damn good actress. And she can turn it up if she wants to. And I think there'll be a lot less cringe moments with her than Kirsten. She can have a couple moments where she looks good...(the cafeteria and the kiss in the rain), but then they give her things to say and do and nails on a chalkboard happen.

Eh, you are one of the very few that complained back then when the movie came out but most loved the movie and didn't really turn on Kirsten until much later. I can see the hate before the films, Ledger got the same crap for being cast a Joker. I still think Tobey played Peter Parker well, better than Garfield to be honest but Garfields interpretation is a bit different, more hipster emo than the OG Peter.
Again she looked decent back then and looks good in the film. Never defended her acting but like I said, not many complained back then. So yeah it isn't hindsight for you but it is for most. These are also pics from 10-12 years ago, SM1 and Bring It On. She just got progressively worse from SM1.

Don't get me wrong, I really liked the first movie. I mean I knew Raimi would do something interesting, but she was actually decent. And Dafoe killed it.
It's weird, I'll like movies despite her, like Melancholia and Jumanji and Bring It On.
2nd Spidey, all the cracks started showing. 3rd one. :x
People remember the dancing scene, but they forget how trash she was.
With Tobey, it's different though...he doesn't have range to me. Like he's a legit good actor, but he only has 2 expressions and one of them's that schmuck face that's perfect for Raimi's tone and sense of humor. Wheels fell off in the 3rd one though.

She coulda held the spirit stick just fine back then. O just hates her. She was fine early in the Spiderman franchise, and then lost it somehow.
As for Spidey themselves, I liked Garfield much much more. I'm interested to see what he does with 2 and see if it continues, but part of me probably has a bad taste still from Spidey 3 and that's got me angry at Tobey.
New girl is the daughter from Descendants? She'll be fine. She can act which is the hard part, they're in Hollywood, they can tan her, pluck her, color her hair, brush it for her, spraypaint makeup, etc etc. She'll be lookin right by the time the movie comes out.

could kirsten get it, of course..
but i've never been a fan.. her 'appeal' worked in crazy/beautiful (as mentioned above).. but they could have easily found someone better
the worst occurance of this to me is maggie gyllenhaal in the dark knight.. that is the one flaw of that movie to me.. granted, i think she has a certain appeal in secretary

I don't know, they have to do a lot of work to her to even contend with Emma Stone.
For a redhead, they should have gotten Karen Gillan, she is just so cute and adorable and actually sexy at times.
I really wish I am proven wrong though, Marc Webb did a decent job on TASM but this sequel is becoming real iffy real quick. Foxx as Electro, Giamatti as Rhino, Average looking MJ.... Giant white eyes is a good sign though but we shall see where this movie goes.

Alonzo
Redhead from Doctor Who? Loved Amy Pond. Shame she left the show.
Shailene's a better actress though.
And I don't know that she could do an American accent that well.
But yeah, she's real cute...after Ron Howard's kid, she'd be the best looking chick in any of the Spideys.

Iono. That just seems like a regular chick trying an accent on.
I'm sure she could learn one, but I just remember this episode of this Showtime show...Episodes
They were adapting this British show for the US and wanted to cast the original old British guy for their show, so they brought him in to meet their bosses as a formality. But they wanted to see him do a little of the part. Then they say they want it in an American accent. He's an old pro, he's learned it, he's got it in his bag of tricks. But when he tries the role out, it's like it handicaps him. The warmth...the charm...it gets wiped out by him trying to nail the accent.
Trying to concentrate on your accent, while you act, while you try and get back to what it is that makes you watchable and likeable is damn complicated. Ask Penelope Cruz.
I just wanna see her do a movie with an accent.
See if she still has that Amy Pond glow.
Cuz just putting on an accent can wash that out. Make someone flat.

Actors from across the pond (no pun) are much better at mimicking an American accent. Look at all the actors here that can act and easily do an American accent with ease. I am sure she can pull it off if given the chance.

I remember that girl being cute in The Descendants. How did her neck get so thick? Nt'ers would call it a sturdy neck. Paul Giamatti is playing Rhino? WTH?

Who's Alonzo? Gif? Wha talkin?
I'm not saying she can't...I'm just saying, she's young and not like a great actress, so I'll believe it when I see it. There are plenty of great, great British actors out there, trained old ones and good ones that made it work.
I'm not talking about just doing a good accent. I'm talking about keeping that quality that makes people like you and want to watch you when you're not using your natural accent. She's got a pretty thick Scottish accent. How much of her charm comes from that? How much of her comic timing comes from speaking naturally? How much of liking her as an actress is in that? Because an American accent is pretty damn flat, controlled and deadpan compared to hers.

Kirsten and Tobey were miscast from the get. It didn't help that Kirsten's looks progressively got worse as the trilogy went on.
This new girl looks like a linebacker in those pictures. I looked her up on Google and I don't think she's pretty or the least bit attractive. That's just my opinion though.

Man it seems to be some sick trend to continually cast an ugly chick as Mary-Jane. Might as well let DDL put on a wig and do it if the excuse is wanting good acting.
Really don't care for that line of thinking with Iron Man, just take the James Bond approach and over the years ppl can have their own fav IM. This whole RDJR is IM will hurt more than it helps especially when it comes to your enjoyment of the movies. Similar stuff wit ppl still having SM3 in their heads when were already so far removed from it. Just keep it moving.

If they cant get Robert Downey Jr, they might as well stop making Iron Man movies.

I'm telling yall...check her out in The Descendants.
She's a plain jane for sure, but you're telling me they can't make an average chick work in Hollywood?
I know...it's a popcorn movie, and dudes would rather a bombshell than a good actress, but she probably has the most acting ability in the cast.
Seriously...find The Descendants...Hit play.
