Spider-Man: The Animated Series/YMMV: Difference between revisions

* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: In the first episode Spidey complains about why he has to crawl around sewers and can't land an easier superhero gig with the Avengers. He also complains about not being "a galaxy hopping superhero," which he essentially becomes in the final episodes.

** In episode 48 "The Vampire Queen" Whistler wonders why all the girls go after vampires and if it has something to do with the fangs. Maaany years before ''[[Twilight (novel)|Twilight]]''.

** Then there's pre-vampire Morbius, who looks and sounds kind of like [[The Room|Tommy Wiseau]].

* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: J.Jonah Jameson's distrust and dislike of Spidey make much more sense when we learn that his wife was killed by a masked gunman. Alistair Smythe arguably qualifies for this trope, along with Morbius. Also the scene where Kingpin's wife leaves him is surprisingly sad.

** Mary Jane and Harry Osborn also came across as annoying for many fans. Harry's case got ''even worse'' once [[Replacement Scrappy|he became the new Green Goblin.]]

{{quote|'''Goblin Harry''': Nyahahahaha! Excellent! ''Eeeeeeexcellent!''}}

{{quote|'''Spider-Man''': I am sick of you...and your riddles. And your ''lessons!'' And your SUPREME ARROGANCE! Don't you ever, EVER enter my life again! Do you hear me? DO YOU HEAR ME!? }}

** And she did, until the "Secret Wars" episodes. Which she says she foretold about before leaving.

** Dr Octopus, who became a mere flunky for the Kingpin, even giving up on his plans to become [[The Starscream]] shortly after the time he got ''defeated by a child.''

** Hobgoblin, who was revealed to be nothing more than a petty crook and a wuss in his last appearance.

* [[What an Idiot!]]: In "Day of the Chameleon," none of the SHIELD agents present noticed that "[[Nick Fury]]"'s eye-patch was on the wrong eye.

* [[The Woobie]]: True to the comics, the sheer amount of crap poor Spidey gets put through over the course of this show, particularly from the second season onwards, is unbelievable.
