Thank you very much

I never said you had to do anything like that to criticize anything. I was just asking this as a point of curiosity, nothing more, nothing less.

Yu-Gi-Oh was my childhood. I'll miss him terribly

I really don't get how anyone could watch this show and come away thinking that.

I'm genuinely curious to know what you would have done if you were put in charge of making a Spider-Man animated show then.

Spider-Man 94 may not be perfect but I'll happily take it over anything animation-wise from Loeb's tenure as head of Marvel TV.

I don't have many memories of X-Men to be perfectly honest. Spider-Man (94) is a bit rough around the edges but it was my introduction to the character and his world so I'll always give it a recommendation.

JK Simmons getting a chance to reprise his role in animation sounded great on paper but left quite a bit to be desired. I know it's probably been said before but man, Marvel made their biggest mistake with putting Loeb in charge of their Tv Division and while I don't think Man of Action are...

Don't know If I've said anything to this effect before but I'm so happy to see a Marvel animated show that doesn't look like a second-rate children's coloring book.

That's a problem I've had with basically every show Marvel Animation has made under Jeph Loeb. Credit where it's due though, These shorts at least have better animation.

Also reminds me of how lackluster the designs of everything since then has been.

I don't mind the MCU having some influence but when the shows are basically carbon copies, It becomes a problem.

Nice to see this show on Netflix and it's even more nice to see the continued appreciation of what is in my opinion the best Marvel cartoon period.

An animated Marvel show that doesn't look like a second-rate children's coloring book? I'm intrigued

I think we all are but it just gives credence to the phrase Quality over Quantity.

My condolences to his family, I grew up watching X-Men Evolution so he was always the definitive voice of Cyclops to me.

Finger's crossed that Marvel Animation will improve now that Loeb and Man of Action have left.

Bless you Chris for giving us these awesome ideas/concepts, They sound so much better than the souless MCU carbon copy show we got instead.

That would actually have been pretty interesting. A Spider-Man animated series where he interacts with more of the Marvel universe is not a bad idea on paper even if it was botched badly in Ultimate. Marvel really should have hired someone who doesn't see animation as exclusively kiddy fare.

I miss this show, It was unquestionably a high point of Marvel Animation before Jeph Loeb took over and insisted that everything be made a soulless carbon-copy of the MCU.

Well all Disney has done is provide a network for Marvel to air their shows but Marvel itself has done a pretty mediocre job in my opinion.

From what I've seen of this show, It really isnt gonna leave much of a legacy when it ends.

I know that much.

Thats cute but its not a cartoon.

Ultimate Spider-Man could've been a perfectly serviceable Superhero show but it thoroughly squandered it's potential with it's insistence on talking down to it's target audience.

Happy 25th Spider-Man TAS. You still blow all current marvel cartoons out of the water.

My biggest problem with TAS Catwoman is that it just felt like the writers could never get a handle on who she was as a character. Was she a thief? an animal rights activist? a damsel in distress? On top of that, She was also characterized as very brooding and serious which just isn't Catwoman...

Bane is supposed to be Batman's intellectual equal who seeks to take over Gotham once he's destroyed Batman. In TAS, He's a glorified luchador wrestler fighting Batman for a paycheck. Hugo Strange is a brilliant criminal mastermind who's even better at messing with Bruces head than the...

That is an interesting question. It certainly deserves it's reputation for quality an the impact it's had on Batman's world and mythology but it's fan tend to gloss over it's flaws and act like the only way to make a good live-action Batman movie is to try and copy paste it. The show was not...

Wow, You really have no clue who Spider-Man is, Do you?

I see. That really isn't something I can argue with but the High School aspect of Peter Parker's life is an important part of his mythos and it had never been explored in depth before (the 67 show just had it be kind of there instead of actually doing anything with it and as I've said before the...

All right then I suppose you must find most classic teenage versions of Spider-Man's story annoying because that's what was taken from it. Again I feel this is a "double standard" because you're giving a hard time to one show for basically doing the exact same thing you gave a pass to, for...

The 67 show may have done some High School stuff in it's second season but it was honestly pretty forgettable. Spectacular again did it so much better and honestly, I don't see how the drama was anymore "annoying" than in the 60's Lee/Ditko comics. You're stance on the "essence of the...

The designs in Spectacular took a little getting used too but honestly, I never thought they were bad at all. I've actually grown to prefer to the beefy designs of the 90s show. As I've said before, The Spectacular Spider-Man was the first cartoon to really delve into the High School portion of...

Were the character designs for Spectacular really that bad honestly? Their simplistic yes but that's what allowed them to make such stunning, fluid action sequences so it's a worthy trade-off in my opinion. I think it's pretty indisputable that Spectacular has the best action sequences by far of...

It's funny that the reason that you find the Spectacular Spider-Man so "bland" is part of the reason I found it to be amazing. Spider-Man famously started off as a teenager and that is a big part of his early career. That part of his life hadn't really been explored in depth in animation before...

I know you've probably heard this before but that's how teenage dramas work, Pal. Spider-Man himself is pretty much the textbook example of that every where you look (Comics, Movies, Other Cartoons) It's kind of unfair to write off the Spectacular Spider-Man just because of that when pretty much...

The definitive Spider-Man cartoon remains the Spectacular Spider-Man in my opinion. There was just so much care put into the writing and characterization and while people often criticize the character designs, Their simplicity made for some thrilling action sequences. It may not have lasted long...
