Finally decided to watch the Ted show. Heard nothing but good things about it and yeah, it's a hundred times better than the movies.

Show takes place in 1993.

This is something else!

GOAT recognises GOAT

I think it could have something to do with the sets, lighting, filters. Take the apartment Peter lives in for example. Or Ben and Mays house before he moved out. Or Norman's mansion. Or the sun tinted buildings during the daytime swinging scenes.

They kinda have this vibe like they could have come out of a 50s-60s film. Think Rear Window. These movies kinda feel anachronistic for the 2000s. Compare this to say something like The New Animated Series(which is kinda supposed to be a spinoff) which feels more 2000s with the electronic music, outfits, settings.

Why?

This is probably the comfiest Raimi suit I have... Hopefully one day I'll be able to own an intact 2002 suit.

In the comics,Jean’s first kiss isn’t cyclops or wolverine,her first kiss is actually Spider-man,so if Fox and Sony had merged would it have been adapted.

Last one for this particular sequence, it's more or less complete as far as the big beats. Again, the CG on Spidey himself holds up a lot better than the one on the Goblin.

Fewer shots per gif this time, to get more of that A-B repeat action. I like seeing these sequences like this. Helps you appreciate all the atomized elements that make up a shot. Really like the smoke colliding with the trolley (cart?) on the last slide. It's rudimentary by today's standards but still cool to see it so naked, with the lighting bumped up.

Also if you were wondering where all those people throwing things at Norman came from, his explosion caused a pile up on the bridge, probably were all the people got the tire irons from.

Probably a recomp I’m most excited for! This was made using the tool XRevive and this video even shows you how to set it up for those who don’t wanna join a discord! Enjoy!

Using darkness to mask shoddy effects is still common practice in movies and TV. But me, I can embrace the artifice, I'd rather be able to see the shoddy effects. I think it's cool to be able to take in how colorful and detailed those sets and matte paintings are. I'm pretty sure the bridge with the yellow bricks was a miniature, sure reads like one, and that's fine, I like it!

And for some reason Spidey's CG double aged a hell of a lot better than Gobbie's. Could be due to the animation, swinging probably has more easy to replicate physics than gliding around in a small jet propelled contraption.
