: : What's going on Kevin?
: : I just wanted to let you know I think you're a great writing and director. I'm from Toronto, and in one of our local papers yesterday I read that Toby Meguire (I think that spelt wrong) from The Cider House Rules was to play Spiderman. If this is true, I wanted to know what you thought of this choice. I was thinking more along the lines of Jude Law.
: : Thanks

I can't see Mewes as Spidey. I can see Affleck or Lee as Spidey, and Kev as Doc Octopus. Mewes. . . I am hard pressed to think of a Marvel hero he could play. . . Thor maybe, if he buffed out. Cap America?? This might be my lack of familiarity with Marvel herodom showing. . . because, unfortunately, I can think of LOTS of DC heroes he could play easily. Hell, dye his hair and he could be Nightwing in a snap. The Flash, if someone did a serious take on the character. Even. . . :: shudder :: Aquaman. Come to think of it, Jay as Green Lantern!!
Maybe there's some Marvel villain he could be easily. . . like one of the mutant baddies.
Besides, after reading through the Clerks/Amy screenplay book, I'm startin' to hunger for some Bluntman and Chronic adventures.
