RIP Spectacular Spider-Man 2008-2010

So, it looks like it’s basically Ultimate Spiderman made into a cartoon. I’ll look into it and see for myself.

90s Spider-Man cartoon was…not great. I just need to point that out for everyone who’s biased by nostalgia.

Anyway, the huge pupils threw me off at first, they look like [media=youtube]cAHaf-sJa5o[/media] But I got used to it and it it works now.

Like the voice acting and the dialogue, background music is good and unobtrusive.

Good interpretations of villians so far, though I liked Vulture more than Electro.

I dig it.

I miss the days when you missed these shows, you’re doomed until they rerun.

Now I feel spoiled with OnDemand, streaming eps and torrents.

YouTube doesn’t have any vids of the first two eps up yet! :mad:

pretty cool drawing of akuma

Yeah. I like this show. A lot. I’m glad it showed up now because with The Batman being over, it’s really a very good replacement.

I’m not too keen on the art style, and I think the intro theme sucks, but I really like the animation and plot pacing. Lizard will be showing up next week.

Yeah, The Batman did end today, which sucks. The show really hit its stride the last few seasons.

Greg Weisman, who worked on Gargoyles is working on Spectacular Spidey. They got some dope voice talent for this show. Get this, Clancy Brown will voice Captain Stacy and Steven Blum will voice Chameleon.

I had no idea The Batman lasted this long.

Now I feel like finding some eps.

Just saw the new spidey cartoon… its ok i liked it. btw whats all this about the Batman/Jla cross over toon that was advertised after spidey?

Well I’m looking foward to more episodes. Eddie’s there so that could mean that the Venom suit can make an appearance. Oddly I don’t really want to see MJ for a while.

mtv one was better

The eps have been posted!! Huzzah! :woot: http://uk.youtube.com/user/KillaK362

hmm interesting…their using the cartoony mike wieringo style of eye movement with spidey. i wonder if its a nod to mike, he didnt invent it but he damn sure made that style popular in drawing spidey.

-aunt may looks like april o’niel from the new tmnt cartoon

-lol at all the villains being placed all over the place

-lol black dude…“its cool”

i really like the first episode.

Let’s see how long they’ll last.

The gargoyle Spidey webbed onto looked familiar :wgrin: I liked seeing the Enforcers in action. Fancy Dan in particular seemed quiet skilled. I thought they might just be bumbling oafs but the Enforcers rock! Man, the Vulture even looks a bit like Freddy Krueger.

yeah, it’s interesting that this is the first time I’ve seen Vulture not looking incredibly goofy. The old man’s face and pointy nose is still kind of silly, but it fits the obvious visual theme of a vulture there.

The Venom/symbiote suit will definitely make an appearance at some point. It’s actually shown for a brief moment in the intro sequence…a short clip of Spidey in the symbiote suit crawling up a wall. That should be quite interesting to see how that story plays out on the new show. There’s some good potential here, though as usual…it would be nice to see this on Toonami instead. CN is such a barren wasteland these days; they need all the help they can get in terms of shows. Currently, I only watch for Bleach, even though I’m up to date on where that anime is right now…the Soul Society is too awesome to resist watching again.

-I bet if the MTV Spiderman was not on MTV…it could’ve gone on for quite awhile. It’s a shame when great shows are anchored to a network that’s run by morons.

Can’t wait for more. It’s a fun show. It is weird that there is less than four degrees of separation between all the villians (Wtf? Eddie? Dock Ock, Osborn, Conner, Electro, Flint Marko, Vulture. All within TWO episodes) tho. Like um… wow. So what will spiderman do when he’s 30 years old and all his major villians were defeated before he graduated from high school?

Oh and** Million**. If you want to see what the new Venom and Doc Ock look like, look no further than your local toy aisle as the figures are already out.

Not sure why they didn’t release action figures of the characters from the first few episodes instead of ones from later down the line like with the old Toy Biz action figure line.

Well… For some reason I’m not feeling the art style. I’m probably too use to the old school one. This new style feels a bit too kiddish for me.

This is head and shoulders above the old series on fox. At least it has a lot more personality and they don’t recycle the animation.

The only thing that annoys me are the perfectly circular eyes… it makes the characters look like dolls.

Speaking of which, Aunt May is hot… I never thought I’d ever hear myself saying that, but it’s true.

What the fuck is up with Harry Osbourne’s voice?? Nails on a chalkboard.

The spiderman theme song sounds like some kind of surfer music… bleh… the fox spiderman theme song was eons superior “spiiiiiderman, spiiiderman, ra-dio-ac-tive spiiiiderman” or something.

QFT… on the theme… its more Ben 10 than anything else.
