We need someone who physically does not look strong, but rather nimble and athletic in a slender kind of way. He's also not supposed to look gloomy or menacing, but rather outgoing and silly yet with maturity to back all that up.
I don't know why, but Shia does not seem to be an appropriate actor for Spiderman. I think it's because he has that sort of body build that kind of makes him seem short, while I always portrayed Peter Parker to have a lanky type of body build. And then theres the fact that his eyes or face do not portray enough maturity behind them to play the important, dramatic parts of Spiderman's life.
Lautner as Parker/Spiderman is one romor that seems to have staying power, but nothing has been announced just yet
