Tobey McGuire and Robert Downey Jr. as action heros instead of Schwarzennegar/Stallone/Van Damme types???

With superhero flicks it seems that one of the keys is to focus on casting the best person for the alter ego/secret identity. Once it is time to kick ass as the hero, the special effects take over most of the time. You want someone that can handle all of the acting once it is time to build the character of the Clark Kent/Peter Parker, etc.

Would the original Superman been as good if the title role was played by other hit actors of the time...John Travolta...Chuck Norris (no offense intended Mr. Norris)...Richard Gere?
