Been posted before I think, just a reminder for the other fanboys here, it premieres tomorrow at nine on MTV. http://www.mtv.com/onair/spider-man/ Initial thoughts: Character designs and the animation look awesome. Particularly the revamped Lizard and Electro. Unfortunately, I got your standard MTV-vibe from the trailer. Hopefully we won't have to endure too many scenes of Pete and Harry hitting up the club and totally getting the digits of hotties. I'll reserve judgment until I see an episode though. It does look pretty, so if nothing else I can put it on mute and veg out.
It's definitely got a unique style to it, I'll say that much... Needless to say, as a big Spider-Man fan, I'll be checking it out!
revamped electro? thank god. the guy seriously needed it. not only the lamest character of the sinister six, but probably the whole marvel universe... except for maybe speedball.
I'll watch this, but I already feel like it's going to be the Spidey equivelant of X-Men Evolution. Focusing more on Spidey's life as a young adult in college. Rob Zombie will be the voice of Doc Conners Lisa Loeb is Mary Jane Doogie Howser is Spidey Ian 90210 Z is Harry. Eve is in it. Gina Gershon will do a voice of an assasin or something.
why make harry a blond guy . . . ? Looks kewl but harry all blonded out looks. . . .too odd Rocket River
Two episodes tonight, which was a nice surprise, but... Overall it was very meh. It was okay, but I was definitely dissapointed. The new spider sense was lame. Since when does his spider sense tell him that crimes are going on somewhere? It's only supposed to tingle when he's in danger! Harry looked weird and didn't look like Harry, although I enjoyed his voice work. Doogie didn't really do it for me, voice-wise. Mary Jane sounded like a complete ditz and was rather annoying. But alot of the animation was cool. It seemed like there wasn't much meat to any episode, although what can you really expect with MTV? They take three five minute commercial breaks over the course of one show, so you're really only get fifteen minutes of programming. I thought the Spidey cartoon that came out on fox a few years ago was far superior to this one.
At least they don't hold back too much on the violence. The one guy loses his finger, the muscle head gets stabbed, and the rich guy, who I believe was the guy who plays DR. Cox, gets his head chopped off. MTV is only airing the show, they aren't really responsible for anything else. Sony is pretty much behind the thing.
Wow, guess I'm the only guy who likes Spidey's voice. Pretty neat show. They've got Spidey dead-on, but he seems out of place here. It's almost like they're doing Spider-Man in Gotham. Could just be a consequence of the lack of depth Mr. Creed pointed out though. As for MTV, they may not have any direct input, but you've got to figure there's a certain formula shows have to follow to be aired there.
