Honestly, the first segment just felt like a whole different movie. A lovely movie but a different movie. They could've just made a, I don't know, Batman vs Batgirl or something stupid like that. Killing Joke would've been like 30 minutes long without all that and be better for it. Wasn't Batman: Year One beat for beat from the comic anyway? Why not do that with Killing Joke and just have it shorter?

I will say though, Slott probably won't make every goddamn thing be about the symbiote. He'll just try to make his own Mary Sue villains instead in some huge event that flops hard towards the end. Or just does a weird 180 and Spider-Man starts killing people like with Superior Spider-Man. Though, he's gotta be a better writer than whoever wrote the Ultimate Spider-Man episodes...who's that Man of Action or something?

I think they all did, just not the very first episode. At least Spider-Man TAS and Spectacular Spider-Man's origin episodes were both deep within a season (Spectacular's was in the last episode of season 1 I think). I remember ones for the old 80s shows too.

ZDar Fan posted:Yeah, I think it was the second season of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends that did an origin episode for each of the titular characters. Iceman's episode had them visit the X-Men in the non-flashback portion, where Wolverine inexplicably had an Australian accent. That episode is the very first thing that got me into Spider-Man, actually. hah I remember renting it from Blockbuster and had it for weeks. I feel like I should see if I could find those episodes again. Didn't they get put on Blu-Ray or something recently? Or at least a full series DVD?

It was random people dancing to the song with Bruce and Kathleen walking to be seated in the Iceberg Lounge. The dancing wasn't really that bad. They were going for a sort of dance club with fine dining type feel. It's Oswald...he'd probably be down for that. Still like the song though. haha

SonicRulez posted:This right here. For instance, I like the Ultimate Spider-Man change to Peter's origin by making the spider genetically engineered rather than radioactive and making the webs part of his super powers. However, I also like that BTAS just plunges into Batman. No need to spend an episode (or worse, a two parter) on The Waynes being shot. Ultimate Spider-Man never had organic webbing, those were a creation of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movie series which Marvel tried to (crappily) adapt into the original 616 Marvel universe with Spider-Man: The Other. Ultimate Spider-Man never had organic webbing except for when he got the symbiote for a few issues. Then the webbing came from his fingertips.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:That is not entirely accurate. Both examples you mention are things that happen on their respective sequels, Another Nail and Crimson Mist. The Nail doesn't show any serious consequence about Batman murdering the Joker beside hurting his reputation. That as the story reveals later, was a set up on which Batman walked right in. Red Rain on the other hand ends with Bruce asking Alfred to killing him after doing the deed with the Joker and is only due Alfred and Gordon's actions that things go so wrong on Crimson Mist. What comic / issue is this?

I like the commentary from Spidey, I like the homemade suit, I like the fluid movement, and I even liked the metro card joke. He WOULD be nerdy enough (at least as a teen anyway) to obey the laws when he's in a super dire situation like that. Then him getting tackled through anyway was amusing. But those backgrounds. Those are so bad that, once I noticed them, it ruined pretty much everything else for me. I seriously hope that's not a final clip or something. They could've at least slapped some outlines on things...and a teeny bit more detail. I get they wanted to focus on the action and the forefront but still... Also what exactly did Spider-Man slam into there? Air? The ground? A tree? I have no idea and it seems like the animators didn't either. I did notice the homemade suit has no spider emblem yet. I think that's a nice touch. If you're going to make a homemade suit out of clothes AND you're really eager to run around in it, you're not gonna try to make an emblem.. Especially if you might suck at sewing.

Skwirl posted:I watched every episode and tapped out of Ultimate Spider-Man after 2 episodes, but I was a teenager when the former came out and an adult when the later did. Ultimate Spider-Man isn't the reason either. quote:Michael J. Eilen writes... http://s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=14223 Basically, it boils down to Marvel can't continue it as Sony owns the show and Disney wouldn't let them buy the rights from Sony, Sony can't continue it because they don't own the rights to air Spider-Man cartoons anymore, and Disney can't continue it because Sony owns the show itself and Disney is (was?) apparently a direct competitor to Sony so they'd never pay them money to buy the rights of the show. Though, with them working together to get Spider-Man in the MCU, who knows if they could bring it back anytime soon. Most likely, they'll just go ahead with Marvel's Spider-Man (both on PS4 and TV, hah).

That being said, it's still a funny movie...the tone is weird and kind of preachy when Ivy and Woodrue are on the screen but...it's not bad...yet? I'm only halfway through though. Harley's voice actress is nicer than Tara Strong's version at least. Hers is pretty screechy at times.

I'm actually really, really liking Marvel's Spider-Man. It's got it's own thing going and I'm okay with that. I think my favorite subtle joke is Otto trying to remove Harry Osborn's nameplate from the wall and he's too short so his first order to Peter is to take it down. Anya is a bitch and about time someone called her out on it. I want to see her reaction when she figures out who Spider-Man is. It'll probably just be even more cattiness. Is she even supposed to get a suit? Why is Miles like...the dumb person who's also smart? He was saying the most aloof weird poo poo in the first few episodes... Otto is just becoming my favorite character though.

Except Jake Lloyd was bullied in school about his role so he quit long before his diagnosis. As for Hayden Christensen, he's been acting for years now. His most recent role is in a movie called Little Italy. Also he might've gotten more Star Wars money as his voice was used in Star Wars: Rebels recently.

USM was, to me, bad writing. The animation was....flat but decent, I guess? But the writing was just really forced jokes and people were upset because it began after Marvel and Disney were forced to cancel Spectacular Spider-Man. Since tons of people said they loved SSM, that show was fresh in their minds when USM began. To them, Marvel had their chance to make a great show in-house separate from Sony's influence...but, unlike their take on Spider-Man in the MCU, they ruined it by making him a Deadpool-lite so much so that the Deadpool episode made jokes that Spider-Man stole from DP and they needed to take Deadpool himself in another direction. That being said, Marvel's Spider-Man is a decent show and the writing isn't AS bad...but it certainly can be at times. MonsterEnvy posted:Don't know how reliable it is. I really don't think this is reliable at all, honestly. Like this place doesn't cite their sources or even the always mysterious "our sources say"...it's basically just a list of things without any rhyme or reason. I would take it with a grain of salt.

I tried to give USM a chance, I'd watch most of the episodes in Season 1 and I think 2...there were definitely some good ones like the episodes where Spider-Man had an adventure with one of his teammates and the teammate had to conquer a fear or insecurity and Spider-Man helped them. I remember the Luke Cage episode with his parents was kind of emotional. The DP one was one of the series' best episodes and the last few where it's Spider-Verse forever were...okay? Also it gave us Donald Glover as Miles which is 10x better than whoever is playing him now as an idiot...even though Glover just sounded kinda bored.

According to Weisman, Sony was given a choice between movie rights or TV, they chose movies. Disney wouldn't allow Marvel to continue the show so they cancelled it. Weisman still refuses to give plot info for unreleased episodes because he thinks they'll probably pick it back up one day, I guess.

Yes and Stranger Things had a better plot than the terrible, overly long time-jumpy plot of Young Justice S2. I'm glad it happened. In all seriousness though, that time jump was awful and we'll probably get another one since S3 has new costumes, new heroes, and we'll get no explanation for anything until 20 episodes in.

Oh, the most recent Marvel's Spider-Man episode had Lady Ock and Doc Ock's "I'M SECRETLY EVIL HAHAHAHAHA" plan finally was revealed. It took like...three episodes to finish that story arc, but I do like how they're kind of slowly building on Brock getting the symbiote. He hasn't had a speaking role yet, but he's always around in the background of the Bugle and Jameson is constantly saying how better Peter is at getting pictures of Spider-Man than he ever was which he gets pissed about. ...which is a really terrible motive for wanting to kill him when he gets the symbiote later this season (thanks to the trailer for season 2, it's very obvious) but...eh. It's better than "EVERYONE INCLUDING HULK AND ALL OF THE GUARDIANS ARE SYMBIOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" from Ultimate Spider-Man.
