For college, I was asked to do a radio play. I thought hmmmm...this is the perfect chance of doing something Spider-man related, because it would be a challenge.

What I bring towards you is my near final product. It isn't finished because I thought it was...but some of the volume levels need to be brought waaay up and also there's a point in the first scene with the robbery, in which the sound effects are out of sync. But apart from that, I'm pleased.

ENJOY!

Also..... put your comments :D


The Amazing Lee's play. ENJOY!

Script for my radio play:


Peter Parker:

My name’s Peter Parker I used to be your average teenaged boy. Until one day a radioactive spider bit me. This freak occurrence gave me powers beyond my wildest dreams. With great strength, agility and all the abilities of a human spider, I am now able to help those in danger and to fight crime. Under my alter ego, I am New York’s greatest crime fighter, best known to many as the Amazing Spider-man.

Narrator:

On last week’s show, Peter Parker found himself facing his greatest enemy yet, commitment. Balancing life between being a vulnerable teenage high school student and his web slinging alter ego has proved difficult at the best of times. With Doctor Octopus back in town, Peter has no social life and is in danger of losing the people that he cares for the most. Being a vigilante super-hero who has more enemies than allies, even amongst the general public is hard work. Will Spiderman find Doctor Octopus and find out why he’s back in town and will Peter Parker be able to resolve his social life. All will be revealed in this episode.

Our story starts on the streets of New York, on a cold Winter’s day. Outside City Bank all is safe and well for this busy city. Until…

SFX: Gun fire

Goon 1: EVERYBODY FREEZE. THIS IS A STICKUP. PUT YOUR HANDS ON YOUR HEAD AND NO-ONE WILL GET HURT. I DON’T WANT NO HEROES.

SFX : Footsteps

Goon 1: Ok, lady, open up the safe and give us what we want

Goon 2: But we aren’t here for the money you know that

Goon 1: Shut your trap, you idiot, and act the part. You know who should be here anytime soon, trust the boss and he may just spare our lives.

SFX: Glass smash

Spiderman: Knock Knock. Sorry I disturbed your little game of cops and robbers. I was wondering whether I could join in and be the nice guy.

Goon 1: Ok, Spider-man, just stay where you are and we won’t have to shoot ya.

Goon 2: Yeah, the boss said he wanted you alive.

Spiderman: hmmmm…looks like I’m seeing a bigger picture here. But I’m here to clear up the mess you guys are making.

Goon 1: I don’t like the sound of this, but we’re not gonna go out without a fight.



SFX: Gun shots. + screaming

Spiderman (In voice): To me, this sounds like a set-up but it Looks like I’d better act first and ask questions later before someone gets hurt.

Goon 2: He’s dodging the bullets. He’s invincible; I’m out of here.

SFX: Running

Spiderman: Not so fast, wise guy, looks like you’re going to be hanging around for a while longer.

SFX: Web splat.
Swing
Thud

Goon 2: Let me down; let me down, I’m afraid of heights.

Spiderman: That’s too bad, but at least you’ll have a friend to look after you.

Goon 1: I don’t think so Spider-man, if I don’t take you down, then I’m sure the boss will.

Spiderman: Boss eh? Perhaps you’ll tell me more?

Goon 1: Not over my dead body.

SFX: Gun shot

Spiderman: Looks like it’s time to meet a sticky end, my friend.

SFX: Punch

Goon 1: Ugh!

SFX: Another punch
Falling to the floor
Web

Spiderman: You my friend are going no-where.
Well, alls well that ends well. Another success for good old me.
Now to find out who that boss really wa….

FX: (Smash)
 

Doctor Octopus:

Spider-man. Your idiotic behaviour and lack of common sense, made me sure that you would fall for the trap that I set.
But now, down to business and why I have come for you. I have a proposition that I am sure, if you are wise enough, will not dare turn down.

Spiderman (In voice): Although I myself was looking for Doctor Octopus, I had no suspicion, that he himself was looking for me. Why didn't my spider sense warn me that something bad was going to happen, am I coming down with a fever again. All this stress I've been under is enough to make a normal man break down, but now isn't the time or the place to be worrying about Peter Parker. This problem could only be dealt with Spiderman
Doctor Octopus is a clever manipulative man, who like myself fascinates himself with Science. But unlike other brilliant Scientists, he is a psychopath with four mechnical arms attached to his body. I don't know what he wants me to agree to, but it can't be good.

Spiderman:
I'm sure, your offer has no interest to me Doc.

Doctor Octopus:
Who said I cared about your interests. I want you for my own purposes, in which you have no choice than to agree. I want you to reveal your identity to the general public.

Spiderman: Sure, why not.

Doctor Octopus: I assume that sarcasm is your only means of answering back your superior intellect, I know full well that you wouldn't give up that easily.

Spiderman: You earned yourself 5 points, Otto.

Doctor Octopus: That's Doctor Otto Octavius to you. I assume your answer is no, in which case, I will have to crush every bone in your body until this Spider bleeds dry. If you can't suffer humiliation, like you have humiliated me in the past, than I have no choice than to kill you like the coward you are. No-one deserves to kill you, as I do.

Spiderman: Jeez, what's with the amateur dramatics and what's with the grudge, I thought we were good pals? Besides, revealing my identity can't be the only trick up your sleeve.

Doctor Octopus: Oh no. Of course not. But I wouldn't dare waste my breath on to what those maybe. I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise now would I. Besides, once I know your true identity, the torment won't stop there, whether you are dead OR alive. I will hunt down all those you have a place in your heart for, and show them that it isn't what you know, it's who you know. And any friend of Spider-man's deserves to murdered in cold blood.
Now I've explained this proposition to you, I expect you to have a real answer by tomorrow. Perhaps even ready to reveal what's hiding behind that mask of yours even. Meet me at 3pm at the dock yard. If you are early, I will know and I will kill you right there and then. Any cheap tricks and the same rule applys.

 
Spiderman (Inner voice): Great. yet another predicament, I'm left in.and at the moment, it doesn't look to good. If I reveal my identity, my friends, family, my EVERYTHING could be at stake. For once, I wish I could get rid of these powers, these responsibilties I'm left with. Am I really happy? perhaps not. I'm too busy trying to make everyone else's life simple. When at this very moment, my own friends are losing every bit of faith they have towards me. Are these powers really a gift? or just a curse. But now isn't the time to be thinking such things. The whole city could be in danger if I don't defeat Doctor Octopus. But first, I really have to set things straight with Mary Jane. I really don't like to let her down, but it's for the best, even though I can't tell her why. She has a place in my heart, if only I could tell her how I feel towards her, if I only I could tell her the truth. Right, let's get out of here, the cops should be here any minute to clean this mess up and I sure don't want to get the blame for it. Now, to find an alley where I can convieniently change back to my civilian self, Peter Parker.

SFX:
thump. (hitting the dumpster)
removing the zip

Peter Parker:
It's a good thing, these alleys are hardly used, it makes life so easier to change in out of costume.

SFX

Footsteps
Sound of a busy street

Narrator:

As our hero walks down a busy New York street, a sudden pain strikes his insides, and Peter Parker feels cold inside. He knows what these symptoms are, as he has suffered them before. Even though he is New york's greatest superhero, illness can still strike, sometimes even greater than a normal man. The winter and the stress have finally taken their toll on this strong minded teenager. Still determined to set things right, he meets Mary Jane Watson in a near by cafe.

Peter Parker:Thank you for coming, MJ. I appreciate this. I really do. I've been wanting to talk to you for a while now.

Mary Jane: Well to me, it seems that you have been too busy to talk to me or even acknowledge that I exist. What made you change your tune?

Peter: I wanted to apologise. I've been really caught up, lately. It isn't your fault at all, but balancing my private life with my work life has been hard lately. You know how hard J Jonah Jameson pushes me to take photos of Spider-man.

Mary Jane: I know Peter and I understand that you DO have a busy life. But you are not the only one. It seems as if you only seem to care for your own needs, not anyone elses.

Peter (Inner voice) If only I could just tell her the truth. If only I could just confide in her my biggest secret....no, I have to keep my identity under wraps as long as I can, I don't want to hurt anyone that I care for!

Mary Jane: You seem so, mysterious. Is there anything on your mind Peter, you look ill, beat-down, as if the world is on your shoulders. I'm sorry for lashing out on you Pete, but I care for you and as one of my closest friends it is my responsibility to look after you. You should get some rest, perhaps we'll talk this over the next time we meet. Go on Tiger, I'm sure that once that cute little face perks up, you'll be back to normal.

Peter Parker:
As I stumbled back to my appartment, I realised that I didn't even get to tell her that I wouldn't meet with her tomorrow. She seemed pretty understanding, even after all I've put her through, but how long till she finally gives up hope. One day, I'll know I'll have to decide between Spider-man and Peter Parker, and I know which one I'd rather be. I now lay on my bed, feeling as ill as I possibly can. If I don't feel any better by tomorrow, I might as well just surrender, I know that if I have a fever this bad when I meet with Doctor Octopus, I know that the consequences will be bad.

Narrator:

Peter Parker, wrapped up his bed in his small cold appartment which looked like it had hardly ever been used. After hours of sleep, Peter woke up in a cold sweat, still ill, as if death was at his door. He glanced over to his alarm clock and realised that he had slept for well over 16 hours and it was now 2pm the following day.
He knew where he had to be in the next hour, even though he knew he wasn't up for the task. Peter slowly put on his Spider-man costume.

Peter: Well, here I go. If I don't get through this in one piece, at least I would die, saving the ones I love. Maybe then they may be able to understand how I really feel, how my mind works and how I'm only interested in the best for society
 

Spiderman: Here I am, 3pm on the dot, but no sign of Doc Ock yet. I wonder, is this really another trap that he has lured me in. My spider sense doesn't seem to tingle, but at the moment, most of my senses seemed clouded by the fever that is poisoning my body.

SFX:

loud thumping noises
Mechanical noises.

Doctor Octopus:

I'm so glad you are here to join me, Spider-man. I am sure you are still aware why you are meeting me here, I'm sure your feeble mind was able to remember such simple information. REMOVE YOUR MASK and show me what lies underneath.

Spiderman:
Never. You seem to think that by bullying me, you will be able to achieve what you want, but you are wrong. You are just a weak-minded fool, that is on too much of an ego trip to realise, that I've defeated you before, humiliated you even and I know that although you may have a great mind, your soul is missing. You don't have
any concerns but that of a middle aged has-been.

Doctor Octopus:
How dare you talk to me like you have any authority over me. I guess your decision is final. You really are a stupid neanderthal, who could never match up to my sheer brilliance. Prepare to meet your end, Spider-man.

SFX:

Punch

Spider-man (Inner voice): Ouch, I wasn't even able to think about blocking that one. What do I do. This illness has disabled the strength that I possess. I'm on a dock, surrounded by water, if he throws me off, it could well be the end of Spider-man.

Spiderman: Is that all you've got in you Otto, I didn't even feel a thing.

Doc Ock: that is a lie spiderman and you know it. Prepare to be anihilated.

FX: Smash. Splash.

Doc Ock: It seems that Spider-man is weaker than usual. I will not let him drown. I will let him face me, under normal circumstances, when he is up to challenging me. But first, I will do what I came here to do. To remove the mask he uses to hide what lies beneath. As I lift him up, I can feel the sheer warmth my heart brings. The day, I find out who really lies behind that mask.......


PETER PARKER. He's just an ordinary teenager. I know who he is, he takes photographs for the Daily Bugle.I refuse to admit that this is the real Spider-man. An imposter, perhaps. But when he finally comes to, he will meet his end, whether he be Spider-man or not!

Narrator:

Is this the end for Peter Parker. as you have just found out, the secret of Spiderman's identity has been revealed to one of his greatest enemies.
Tune in next week to listen to the great adventures of "THE AMAZING SPIDERMAN"







 
Are you English?

It's cool, but I don't think you're a very good voice actor.
 
Lol NOT really used to do acting, but I am rusty on American accents.

I mainly do editing but I thought I;d do an Aerican accent.

I apoligise for my suckage.

Yes it will be. I just need to give in all of the paperwork and then I'll be done.

:)
 
So that's what the british sound like when trying to sound american.

It's still really good.
 
Sorry about the acting. I don't think my accent was THAT bad but it definetely wasn't the best lol.

And thanks. :woot:
 
Thanks. I thought, well considering I can write a play about anything and it is easy to explore things you cannot when creating a film, I thought I'd write about something I know about.

:woot:
 
Just heard it. It was awesome!

I wish we had a weekly Spidey-radio show now.:o
 
hahahaha. You know how much effort that would take? lol.

I got my teacher to be Doctor Octopus and a few classmates to do some of the roles.

I did Peter Parker/ Spider man. :o
