The Amazing Spider-man

I remember when the Amazing Spider-man was Amazing!  With the cool stylings of Steve Ditko and Jazzy Johnny Romita!  My late friend Tony Peters (Rankin/Bass designer of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer), worked at Grantray-Lawrence after R/B and on all the early Marvel cartoons.  Ironically, the voice cast of the Spider-man cartoons were the same group of actors featured in Rudolph too. #spiderman #marvel #antonypeters #grantraylawrence #steveditko #johnromitasr 

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN rant

I have always loved the character of SPIDER-MAN!  Love the original comic books by STEVE DITKO, STAN LEE, JOHN ROMITA, SR., etc.   Love the GRANTRAY-LAWRENCE cartoons!  I thought the SAM RAMI movie series was perfectly cast..AUNT MAY, J. JONAH JAMESON, etc.

Just watched the NEW trailers for the film that is called a "Reboot."  HARRY POTTER MEETS SPIDER-MAN MEETS JURASSIC PARK!  A smart-assed SPIDER-MAN with lines like "Do I really look like a cop to you?"  I thought trailers were supposed to excite you and make you want to see a film...this one made me nauseated.

My son and I were looking forward to seeing the LIZARD in a Sam Rami film...oh well.   WALLOPIN' WEB SNAPPERS!
