i'm not sure why $object.get${methods}() is giving you a syntax error.
if there is no "getGet", "getget", or get("get") method for your
$object, then you should still get $object.getMethod() in your output
(though that will trigger an invalid reference message in your logs).
anyway, if you have done ctx.put("methods", "Method") and do the
following in your template...
#set( $D = '$' )
${D}object.get${methods}()
then you should get...
$object.getMethod()
after your first pass (with no invalid reference messages).
if you are still getting a syntax error, then perhaps parser is
(wrongly) bothered by the parentheses. in that case, try
#set( $D = '$' )
#set( $PS = '()' )
${D}object.get${methods}${PS}
