Reviews

landryt This was overall a great show, Great animation. It is really cool how they made the show completely 3d. Neil Patrick Harris does a fantastic job as Spider-man. The Mary-Jane and Harry voice actors also sound great. I saw this DVD at Best Buy and thought it was worth checking out. Boy was i right, Even my brother who is 18 got into the show. The season(and series)finale was great, a two part episode when these two twins fool spider-man into thinking that Kraven the Hunter killed MJ. So he attempts to kill Kraven then realizes it was a trick. At the very end of the episode he thinks that he is pushing one of the twins off the edge, but he accidentally pushes Indy off and she goes into acomma. He then throws his costume into the ocean, quitting being spider-man forever. The Finale makes you want a 2nd season really badly, but too bad they ended it after the 1st.
shantosh9500 Okay there are many things wrong with this series. This is definitely not the Spider-Man series i was hoping for. I can tell you why.1. Its not a comic adaption and lack of comic characters Okay why do they even bother making a series that takes place after the blockbuster Spider-Man movie? I mean sure its great and wonderful but why make a series of it. There are hardly any villains and supporting cast from the comics. And because of MTV and their stupid rule of not having any adult characters there is little JJJ and Curt Conners and Robbie Robertson, MJ's father and or course Aunt May weren't even part of the series. And don't get me started on the villains. Why made such stupid villains while you can have those cool ones from the comics. Okay so we can't have Green Goblin because of the movie and Doc Ock, Sandman & Venom are a no no but why can't they use villains like Shocker, Rhino or even Mysterio. They only classic villain they have here are Kraven the best villain here sadly, Kingpin who is portrayed very badly despite being voiced by MCD, Electro who was quite good, Lizard who looks nothing like the original and i don't even count Silver Sable as a classic villain.2. Aimed at the wrong audienceOkay if you want a series about a classic hero like Spidey there are only two markets that you should aim for, The Kids and the Core Fans. Kids love the fights, the action and of course the hero and Core Fans love the villains, the stories used, the supporting cast and the everyman hero. Along with that there is only one market you should avoid at all cost, the MTV Crowd. I mean seriously WHY MTV? They don't even care about book characters they only care about the movie. And they are not even interested in this new series which is why it gotten cancelled mostly because it was aired in 2003 and X2 was the most popular movie back then meaning that they lost interest in character and whatever MTV says is cool or boring their lemmings will always agree.3. Cell shaded animation Exactly why is it that people don't like traditional animation anymore? Ther is absolutely no reason to make a Spider-Man series computer-animated. The animation is not bad but its not good either. Why use those damn computers when pencils and inks are your tools FOR GODS SAKE!!!! There i said. The only thing i actually find interesting about this show is the violence and Spidey. As a fan of the character i say thank goodness we are rid of this rubbish and we are going to have a new Spidey DTV series next year. Take my word for it if you are a fan of the character go see the 90's series.
bluegender_1 When i first heard about the new series of Spider-man i was a bit hesitant of watching it as i was a such huge fan of the old series as i remember rushing home from school so i could get in on time and watch it. I felt nothing could match up to it but i admit i was pleasantly surprised and instantly got hooked on it watching one after the other. I admit the voice overs weren't to bad but i prefer the old voice overs in the previous Spider-man probably because i'm just sentimental. Animation was new and different comparing to other series i've seen. Over all i enjoyed it despite the voice overs and would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Spider-man or not. So go watch it!
RedErik I religiously tune in to Spider-Man every week.While it does use the Villain-of-the-Week scenario, I don't think this detracts from the success of the show. The animation is spectacularly done: it captures Spider-Man's motions with a McFarlane-esque fluid grace that has only ever been accomplished in comic books.The villains themselves are modern: don't look for Electro to wear that laughable starfish mask!What I like most about this series, though, is that the character of Peter Parker/Spider-Man portrays a lot of the duality and pathos that has made the character so popular over the years; here's a teenager with everyday problems and even superpowers out the ying-yang doesn't help him hold a job or get a passing grade. He's very... human.What I don't like: the Harry Osborn and Indie characters. Harry's very 2-dimensional and his hatred for Spider-man (carried over from the movie) feels forced, it's more like the hatred one reserves for a rival sports team than the man who killed your father. He also flip-flops between brooding and vengeful to aloof playboy (for the love of God, pls stop swirling martinis!!!). Indie just feels out of place. A character they dreamt up but didn't have any other place to put her.I love the series, I hope to see more, deeper stories and moreover, I hope this is a sign of cartoons to come!!
