Wait, is THAT what was being said?
Everything was so synthesized that I could never make out what was being said. It just sounded a bit like garbled nonsense.
I always thought it was cool the way they showed off the spider sense. How the screen would flash into that weird trippy dimension with that weird sound, cool as frick

I always wondered why the frick that guy has a seemingly jet-powered wheelchair
I mean, why? Can't you just put an electric motor in the thing? Why does it need fricking turbine engines?
electric motors fricking suck ass. i'd drive a jetpowered car over an electric one anyday. and i'm aware of the downsides of those. slow acceleration etc.
My dad was happy I was into cool squeedily electric guitar metal rock and roll, and not the rap.
Remember the episode where the biker mice all start singing motherfricking CCR's Midnight Special for almost no reason? God those were the days.
Also, RIP W. Morgan Sheppard. I miss that guy too. and Tony Jay.. and David Warner.. The only classic villain voice from the 90s left is Tim Curry, and he's hanging on by a thread. Oh I guess Malcolm MacDowell is still alive.
That animation has no right being as good as it is, I'm assuming this was farmed out to a Japanese studio, just the wide shots alone remind me of similar shots from Evangelion.
god, it really was so iconic back then. the red and blue vs the bluish black. it felt so frickin real.
I loved Maximum Carnage and Separation Anxiety, switching between spidey and venom was so cool. At first I thought it was significant that spider-man turns black when you select Venom, then I realized oh it's just turning grayscale from not being selected. Which actually made it confusing since Venom was already blackish, more than once I selected the wrong one.
>*and the symbiote
Frick, how did I leave that out
I thought you were referring to Venom as 'blue' heh
the idea was so great, but the execution was cheesy. and the toys were even worse. and the Ultrazord-ass combiner mode made no sense, why is a stack of bugs better than just bugs
man that is one creative and unusual way to depict a spider crab
Well it was in a song.
Also, in one of the first episodes there's a joke where Peter says "it's in my blood" after getting a compliment about him being good at science, or something like that, so clearly they could use the word blood sometimes.
yeah I think this was a mixture of oldtimey comics code bullshit about vampires (which even they rescinded because it was pointed out that classic horror is part of high culture) and just that one executive being a dick to the show on purpose. I hope she's enjoying being old or dead now.
I could never make much sense out of why Venom had red and blue highlights hitting him from opposite sides, but it was even weirder that he seemed to have black lines crisscrossing his forearms which interrupt the highlights. but only in some episodes.
also, why there's vertical lines separating only the second set of spider limbs on his chest.
>why there's vertical lines separating only the second set of spider limbs
Are you not realizing those are his pectoral lines? Also those "dark marks" on his arms seem like coloring errors that seem to be shadows they wanted cast on his arm, but since there's a spotlight on his arm on that side, they shouldn't have been in there in the first place.
I always wondered why the frick that guy has a seemingly jet-powered wheelchair
I mean, why? Can't you just put an electric motor in the thing? Why does it need fricking turbine engines?
unrestricted access to anything to prevent his legs from being liability, his father literally died.
>unrestricted access to anything to prevent his legs from being liability
But I feel like having a jet powered wheelchair is kind of a huge liability. What happens if it breaks down, or sucks a rock into the turbine? It would be a pain in the ass to fix. And think of how often he must have to refuel it. Jet engines aren't exactly economical when it comes to fuel consumption. Not to mention the fact that he's going to be filling every room he's in with noxious exhaust gasses. If he drives around enough (or just sits there on idle for a while) he and Kingpin would drop dead from carbon monoxide poisoning.
There were the regular Goblin Gliders, which were the standard comics size, but there was also the big glider that the smaller glider could slot into. If you watch that webm, you can see Hobgobby launch the larger one to attack Spidey while flying around on the original, smaller one.
Are you forgetting he was also involved in parts of the final draft for X-2 as well? MGS1 was good despite Kojima's foibles in storytelling doing their damnedest to drag the game out even longer.
I see MGS1 as the actual end of the original Metal Gear story. What came after was Kojima trying (and failing) to be a philosopher using the MG setting as his soapbox.
I haven't actually seen any of the X-Men movies except Days of Future Past, and the two Deadpool movies. I rented the first movie once, but it had problems playing, presumably because of the disc, so I didn't get very far into it. I just know some trivia about it, like how David Hayter was involved, and how Joss Whedon tried to make a running joke about Toad being a smartass with Storm's "the same thing that happens to everything else" as a punchline, and that's why it's there and comes out of nowhere. And my knowledge of the other movies is also rather limited, and doesn't include any details about which parts you're referring to.

I don't have the time or interest in explaining my Metal Gear opinions here, so I won't. I do have them though.
Was this one which Carnage is able to stick mind controlling symbiotes to others? When I watched him doing that as a kid immediately made him my favourite
Nah, Carnage was a straight up killer for censor standards by stealing souls and after his defeat the symbiote found its way to a Spiderman who was going through a tough Clone Saga and became Spider-Carnage.
god dammit there's no more roscoe lee brownes in the world, and we NEED them.
classy, classically-trained actors with gravitas. especially black ones so you can be like "See? it's not race that makes you a thug, it's environment"
I mean yeah mutating into a spider isn't something any soccer mom can claim is something that happened to her kid, or that the cartoon forced her kid to do, or any other weird shit.
It would be another decade or so before the concern was "getting kids too excited when mommy is hung over" and ratings started unironically listing "intensity" as a criteria for parental guidance. Can't expose those kids to intensity!
Naw in the 90s, this was still good. in fact you could get away with minor gore if it was on a monster instead of a person.
Well it was in a song.
Also, in one of the first episodes there's a joke where Peter says "it's in my blood" after getting a compliment about him being good at science, or something like that, so clearly they could use the word blood sometimes.

I think there has two be at least two different versions, changed whenever during certain arcs
>Wait, is THAT what was being said?
Yes..?
Always what I heard, and I was 8 in 1994.
this whole time I thought they just said spider spiderman amazing spiderman
I heard 'spider butt'
best of all that effect had to be pretty cheap
I thought it was saying Spider-Man, Spider-Man, Radioactive Spider-Man.
that's at the end
SPIDER BROAD SPIDER BROAD
ERECTION-ACTIVE SPIDER BLOOD
MJ fricking dies, they should have had Peter end up with Cat
Based
I always thought it was cool the way they showed off the spider sense. How the screen would flash into that weird trippy dimension with that weird sound, cool as frick
?si=DsHVHeTIRmb4u9Sa
Yeah that’s the good shit. I like to believe that’s what Peter actually sees when it goes off
I think it's supposed to be his mutated DNA in the background across a distorted city?
Well I’ll be damned it does look like that
I only knew the 60s cartoon song and I thought the opening was "Does whatever a spider can".

what about SMYTHEs father?

I've never heard of a guitar riff that goes as hard as the one that happens in the last part of the theme.
The 90s were perfect for that sort of thing.
iirc it was an actual metal musician doing that. like from aerosmith or someband
90's was a fantastic time for widley electric guitar cartoon intro's
?si=Bi7oyonZts88KPOV
It was a great to get the kids all up hyped up after eating all that sugary morning breakfast cereal.
My dad was happy I was into cool squeedily electric guitar metal rock and roll, and not the rap.
Remember the episode where the biker mice all start singing motherfricking CCR's Midnight Special for almost no reason? God those were the days.
Also, RIP W. Morgan Sheppard. I miss that guy too. and Tony Jay.. and David Warner.. The only classic villain voice from the 90s left is Tim Curry, and he's hanging on by a thread. Oh I guess Malcolm MacDowell is still alive.
One of my favorite scenes from the show
God, fricking kino
That animation has no right being as good as it is, I'm assuming this was farmed out to a Japanese studio, just the wide shots alone remind me of similar shots from Evangelion.
those studios really worked their asses off.
>Red-and-blue having a kaiju fight
>*and the symbiote

I thought you were referring to Venom as 'blue' heh
For me, it's the Spider Slayers.
Still think it’s funny that their “ultimate form” or whatever you want to call it is just them stacked on top of each other
Yugioh-looking ass
>You know what they say if at first you don’t succeed, BLAST THEM WITH YOUR SPIDER SLAYERS AGAIN!!
tfw had the toy
the idea was so great, but the execution was cheesy. and the toys were even worse. and the Ultrazord-ass combiner mode made no sense, why is a stack of bugs better than just bugs
Reminds me of this 3 weird fellows from GX
man that is one creative and unusual way to depict a spider crab
yeah I think this was a mixture of oldtimey comics code bullshit about vampires (which even they rescinded because it was pointed out that classic horror is part of high culture) and just that one executive being a dick to the show on purpose. I hope she's enjoying being old or dead now.
I could never make much sense out of why Venom had red and blue highlights hitting him from opposite sides, but it was even weirder that he seemed to have black lines crisscrossing his forearms which interrupt the highlights. but only in some episodes.
also, why there's vertical lines separating only the second set of spider limbs on his chest.
>why there's vertical lines separating only the second set of spider limbs
Are you not realizing those are his pectoral lines? Also those "dark marks" on his arms seem like coloring errors that seem to be shadows they wanted cast on his arm, but since there's a spotlight on his arm on that side, they shouldn't have been in there in the first place.
Oh yeah I forgot they made the Goblin Gliders like 50ft in this show
it was toyetic.

is it a jet or scifi hovercraft tech?

Remember when he asked the symbiote to give him clothes like that guy from Aerosmith?
>Nah, too MTV.
I never knew until years later, that it was David Hayter who voiced Captain America.
He also showed up briefly in X-Men, the movie.
Which he also wrote an early draft for.
Are you forgetting he was also involved in parts of the final draft for X-2 as well? MGS1 was good despite Kojima's foibles in storytelling doing their damnedest to drag the game out even longer.

This cartoon single-handedly got me into Spider-Man, made Venom my favorite character and got me into comics.
Somethings off here

Nah, Carnage was a straight up killer for censor standards by stealing souls and after his defeat the symbiote found its way to a Spiderman who was going through a tough Clone Saga and became Spider-Carnage.

I thought they couldn't say blood
double standards are a hell of a drug.
>Blood and guns are too much for children
>This is fine though
I love the 90s
I mean yeah mutating into a spider isn't something any soccer mom can claim is something that happened to her kid, or that the cartoon forced her kid to do, or any other weird shit.
