Who here besides me thinks this is going to suck?

^ Ditto! They are either ignorant or looking for a flame war. I guess they will stop watching if "Spectacular" is just crap right? Oh wait, how naïf of me, they will bash it for the rest of the season, bashing is so addictive to some.

I don't like the characters art work that much, but the voice acting, animation and stories were pretty good, not bad for a "kids show".
 
This cartoon was crap total crap. Made The Batman look awesome and serious.

Pete's eyes made him look like he belongs in an old Rankin and Bass Christmas special.

Totally lame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! An insult to the character.
Marvel sucks so bad now. All their cartoon dvds suck, their tv shows suck, like this an that dumb FF cartoon, and Spidey movies look to be on the way down after three turned out merely, meh. They ruin their characters so bad, and the comics have been garbage for years now.

But aside from that, how did you enjoy the play Mrs. Lincoln?

Seriously, I have to agree about the eyes. And Peter, who looks a little too hip and modern for a science geek, should probably have been given Harry's clothes in his design. But overall, I thought it was pretty good.
 
Was alright but the designs still suck, once again Peter gets hip clothes like the old cartoon instead of a nerdy attire, and it seemed like they wanted to overcrowd the show with guest spots, cameos, and future storylines--- (didn't Marvel learn with "SPIDER-MAN 3?")

I actually enjoyed "The Batman" series finale more than this.

The cartoons were always incredible in the 90s, and I enjoyed them, but never liked one good animated series since 2000, and even for The Batman, I didn't enjoy it until the fourth season, and yes, the series finale was pretty good, but I actually was hoping for Brainiac to be The Joining's leader...might sound weird, but it would've been a good appearance for Brainiac as the last baddie they would have to face before the series ends.

But when I was watching The Spectacular Spider-Man, I felt like a kid again(I'm 20), and yah, I was actually enjoying this show...sure, I'm an adult now, but I'm off and usually bored during the mornings because I had just woke up, so watching this was fun for me...the animation was a bit kiddy-ish and that is even comparing it to The Batman, but the dialogue and the pace of it made it, shall I say, spectacular to watch...I can over-look the designs because it made me a fan of Spidey again, especially after my huge Spider disappointment with Spider-Man 3(:cmad:), but it was nice to see Spidey fighting the forces of Vulture, the Enforcers and Electro and happy to see all of the development with Dr. Connors, Eddie Brock, and even Norman Osborn already, with him being a stealer and taking away the invention from Toomes. So I hope to see the rest of these episodes, the rest of Spidey's villains, and I'll be sitting infront of my TV screen when the symbiote arc comes to this show, :woot:

That ALONE explains your taste :dry:

What is 'hip' about what he wears? It's just normal teenager clothes. He's hardly the pinnacle of fashion. We don't need to see him wearing a pocket protector to know he's a geek.
 
Lol, being a nerd doesn't always mean clothes that pull up far above the waist. That look works great for Peter Parker, but I never see anybody dress like that anymore. I'm a big nerd, but I don't dress like that. I dress in normal clothes.
 
People just hate their favourite characters appealing to the younger generation, I swear.
 
Whats up with spidey making all these lame jokes while battling bad guys?

Most nerds dont dress "nerdy" so much as dress badly. When watching the scene when they first get back to school, the whole aspect of Peter being a nerd and bullied came off forced and unexplained. He looks about as competant as any other kid at his school and speaks with total confidence. Its weird to see Peter exclaim "Bro, haha!! Whats up!?" to Brock after years of Maguire's socially awkward mannerisms.

This Peter Parker is more mid-era Ditko/Lee days then the early issues when he did come off as more of an incapable nerd. You just got to assume that for some reason people at his school think that hes a dork, we didnt grow up with him so we werent there during the elementary years that would define his school career. Probably he used to pee his pants all the time. Thats what I'm going with.
 
The thing about Spidey's quips is they should either be funny like Bendis (the only thing he does well in his terrible career, and this is only half the time) or just silly and lighthearted but not really funny ("heres your change"). Its bad when Spiderman's jokes are meant to sound clever or funny but instead miss the mark and are distracting or annoying.

I'm sure Spectacular Spiderman will say something funny soon.

Fanboys, you give them quips they complain, you don't give them quips they complain. Now they want want their quips at just the right specific style of funny. :dry:
 
Well i would really love to know how old are all of you who are enjoying the art style so we can get an idea. Anyway there is question that the animation is great and the music rocks, but for me, for now comparing the first 2 episodes of this to those of the 90's show, i prefer the 90's show.

And just so you know i just watched the first season of the 90's show over the weekend and my only complain was the cgi backgrounds and the music sucks other than that its rock-on.

If the guys behind the SSM wants their show to be known as THE spiderman animated series of all time im afraid that they need change the artstyle and get sony to give them more cash for that coz really the art is keeping me away from enjoying this new series.

i am 26 by the way
 
He wants Erkel The Nerd clothes. :)

No, I wanted a guy who looks like Toby McGuire or how Pete is suppose to look like. A guy who switches from his glasses and nerdy clothes to Spider-Man. That's what I wanted.

Alright, enough, stop watching the show and leave us at peace.....PLEASE :csad:
 
I've already heard some bad things about this. Like it's aimed at young kids,and doesn't have the all around appeal that SM:TAS had. Who else thinks that this will be even more censored than the 90's cartoon?

Umm, Spidey wil kick and punch in this show. Spidey did not do that in the 1990's series.
 
I've been pleasantly surprised by the show. My only complaint is the characters huge eyes, but everything else feels right. Pete's a science nerd with money problems, helping his aunt out. I like the curfew thing, Pete and Eddie being friends, hopefully they'll go with the Ultimate version of the Venom suit, an experiment gone wrong. Cool to see Gwen as a nerd like Pete. Plenty of villians have already made cameos, so you can see they'll take the time to develop big time enemies like the Goblin, Lizard, Venom, Doc Ock and the Kingpin. Hopefully MJ will be introduced as a new girl at school. Only complaints are the eyes and that Liz seems to be asian, why couldn't they have the blond be called Liz and the asian girl just a random friend.
