I think he means to ask if people are more willing to overlook a relative lack of quality on a Spider-Man project, simply because they're a fan of the character; be more forgiving of flaws because they're glad it's Spidey.
I think.
If not, then yeah ...WTF? :confused:

I'm not more forgiving. I won't accept anything just because it's spider-man.
I hated sins past, hated omd, hated the clone saga, hated the ultimate spider-man cartoon, hated the spider-man movies.

No, I'm not more forgiving because I'm a Spidey fan. Crap is crap, doesn't matter what character it's centered around.

no one really cared too much about what they did with elektra or ghost rider, even fantastic four gets by easier.

That is true. Spider-Man is a bigger character, he's a signature, has more fans and to most is so endeering that it's so annoying to see what is essentially such an easy concept to produce be in the opinion of some to be reduced into something so badly handled.

Definitely not!
I've dropped the Spider-Man comics because of the nonsense they're doing in them. And I didn't much care for Spider-Man 3, either.

yeah that's what I meant.
for instance I was very tolerant of spidey 3 if it were another superhero rather than my favorite superhero I probably would have left the cinema half way through.
Its like spectatular I was moaning about 'the batman' art style but I find myself all but overlooking the art style of SSM

Nope.
I decided to read OMD hoping that Peter would get his identity back and he did...but what we got was worse. Not reading that crap again :o I love Spectacular Spider-Man because it stays close to the originals while changing some things ( I'm willing to overlook Montana as Shocker if it's good...if not.... : / ) Spider-Man 3 is still good IMO. Not incredible like I first watched it but still okay. I notice the flaws but I still enjoy watching it,too.
I hope Avi gets assassinated. :) along with Quesada.

You know a year ago, regardless of my complete denial of Sins Past and the 90's series (post season 1) I might've still said yes to this question. But now here I sit; I can't read 616 Spidey anymore thanks to One More Day, and SM3 pretty much killed the entire trilogy for me.
But Spectacular has given me some hope. The first 3 episodes alone are the best thing to happen to Spidey fans in a long time. Reminded my why I became a fan in the first place. Hell, I'm even optimistic about the Shocker episode despite using Montana instead of Schultz. Hope they keep up the good work.

I hate the comics, hated the third movie, the MTV series and Spider-Man Unlimited. I was skeptical of this show when I saw the kindergarten-esque designs. I am still not impressed by the design of the show, HOWEVER...
The writing, the voice acting, everything else (so far) is flawless, and more than compensate for the kiddy design quality.

it wasn't that hideous it was actually pretty good(except for the beastiles)
And I like something of spider-man not just because its spidey, but because i actually like it and because it's good.
and SM3 rulz.

No, i'm not forgiving because i'm a spidey fan.
I found the Spider-Man Unlimited, MTV Spider-Man television series to be unacceptable. I'm particularly displeased with 616 Spider-Man comics (Current).

I only saw the pilot of the show, but I liked what I saw. It seems to be well made, and I even liked the art style. I reminds me of the "Scott Pilgrim" comic series. I like when people try new stuff. It's a show that knows it's primarily for kids, but it's one that I don't think adults need be ashamed of watching.

I like Batman, The Batman sucked, I love Spider-Man, Spectacular Spider-Man sucks. So no. I loved the 90's toon, the MTV one was actually pretty cool, but this new one is awful. They're crapping all over my favorite hero.:down

What's wrong with the show's quality? It's well written, well animated and an entertaining way to kill a half hour on a saturday morning while getting my sPidey fix. Has this thread been reanimated from the MTV sPidey series or something?

Not at all. I hold Spider-Man to high standards, and I hold Greg Weisman to high standards, and have told him so. He's doing a great job.

I won't just sit back and accept something just because it's Spider-Man. I'm a gigantic Spider-Man fan and I have been all of my life, but if there is something in the Spider-Man Unvierse that is just dumb, stupid, or/and boring, I will say it. Such as the Spider-Man: Unlimtied show, MTV Spider-Man series and OMD storyline.

That's how I feel . I am completely turned away from the comics , The Spiderman 3 was a letdown ( although the did a good job with sandman) , and this new animated series isn't that impressive.

This show is good. However, some people here seem to believe that all cartoons should be made for them. They just cannot grasp the concept that modern childrens cartoons are meant to appeal to modern children.

Well, today's children suck. Anyway, even if I'm not a fan of the art, I have to admit that Spectacular Spider-Man is a high quality cartoon. Fluid animations, good action and great storylines.
