Hello friends,
Huge fan of Spidey when I was a kid. And now I bought the DVD for my kid son.
I am impressed with the animation and the action in the cartoons of the DVD.
The reasons why I did not give it 5 stars is because:
The cartoon is not made for kids. I was shocked to hear offensive words like "Hell" and "Cra*".
What are we teaching our children, that it is ok for them to speak like that since their heroes are saying that?
What happened to the classical good vs. evil cartoons.
Thanks,
Nawaf

My son is a big Spiderman fan and so I ordered this new Animated Series. He told me upon viewing it, that this was computer-animated. I think it stinks and if I had known this before I opened it, I would have returned it and got my money back!!! Give me the old animation any day!

I don't know where the editorial reviewer gets their views from, but he or she should have their eyes checked. Yes, this is one of the many attempts to get you to buy the series piece-meal. Yes you should buy the two-disk full season, its better that way, and more economical. But the series is incredible. It is an excellent show, with excellent graphics, and amazing writing. The voice cast stands out also. And anyone picking on how fast he changes into his costume, should have their brain checked, its a cartoon for cying out loud.

Three episodes from the recently cancelled "Spider-Man" series aired on MTV during the summer of 2003 are presented here by Columbia/Tri-Star Home Video.
All thirteen episodes have already been made availible on the recent special edition set that included a host of extras for fans of the show. This particular reviewer found the animated series to be something of a disappointment due to the forced attempts to "hip up" the character of Peter Parker and a number of absolutely terrible villains. The animation is also a mixed bag as well -- many of the computer generated sequences of Spider-Man web-swinging over New York City are terrific, while scenes with the character (and his college friends) out of costume are far less convincing.
Don't let the new release or the cover art fool you -- these are simply episodes already offered in the special edition from earlier this year (and still availible on Amazon).
The episodes include "Spider-Man Dis-Sabled" which pits the webslinger against an assassin known as Silver Sable, as well as the two-part story that ended the series, "Mind Games, Part One" and "Mind Games, Part Two." There is some alternately entertaining sequences and terribly flawed animation to spare. Neil Patrick Harris is particularly good as the costumed hero, although the trademark "instant changes" from Peter Parker into Spider-Man might be more than a bit annoying to some (he runs down an alley in "Mind Games, Part Two" and magically changes in a burst of light from his street clothes to his red and blue costume? He jumps off a roof in "Spider-Man Dis-Sabled" as Peter Parker and, within a milisecond, swings away as Spider-Man?) The finale of the "Mind Games" two-parter was obviously a set up for season two, but the cancellation of the series will prevent that.
Fans of the series should stick to the special edition and stay away from this bare bones release.
