First I would like to say a big thanks to the crew at Alive not Dead for giving me my fifteen minutes of fame and featuring me this past 24 hours. This site is really great. Thanks again Guys. AND Rocks!!!
So Today i would like to express to everyone my love for spider-man. I used to climb up the side of my house as a kid because of stan lee's creation. My mom was not happy to say the least.
But spider-man like any cultural Icon influences different cultures in different ways.
you all surely know toby maguire in his interpretation of Peter parker directed by the great Master
Sam "Evil Dead" Raimi
but there were others.
spider-man is alive in the hearts of people around the world.
So Here are few examples of that.
here is a classic. the japanese spider-man. this was amazing, if any of you ever saw it. it was a real live action acrobatic spider-man, completely re-invented for the Japanese audience. insane, but classic non-the less.
Japanese Spider-Man

here is an example from India.
quite funny too

lets compare and contrast. Now, the US TV series of spider-man was cool for it's time, until you find out what they did in japan at the same time. I think the Japanese got it right, but you be the judge.
ok maybe not the robot and the car, but the other stuff.

And Now this is the film I wish I could take credit for. but alas I can't.
Pure genius!!!
It is inspiring though.
people really need to love what they do to bring things like this together.
And without further adue, for your enjoyment.
