    You (you), you are (you are) my universe
    And I (I) just want (just want) to put you first
    And you (you), you are (you are) my universe, and I
    In the night, I lie and look up at you
    When the morning comes, I watch you rise
    There's a paradise they couldn't capture
    That bright infinity inside your eyes
    매일 밤 네게 날아가 (가)
    꿈이란 것도 잊은 채
    나 웃으며 너를 만나 (나)
    Never-ending forever, baby
    You (you), you are (you are) my universe
    And I (I) just want (just want) to put you first
    And you (you), you are (you are) my universe
    And you make my world light up inside
    어둠이 내겐 더 편했었지
    길어진 그림자 속에서 (eyes)
    And they said that we can't be together
    Because, because we come from different sides
    You (you), you are (you are) my universe
    And I (I) just want (just want) to put you first
    And you (you), you are (you are) my universe
    And you make my world light up inside
    My universe (doo-doo, doo-doo)
    My universe (doo-doo, doo-doo)
    My universe (doo-doo, doo-doo)
    (You make my world)
    You make my world light up inside
    You make my world light up inside
    나를 밝혀주는 건
    너란 사랑으로 수 놓아진 별
    내 우주의 넌
    또 다른 세상을 만들어 주는 걸
    너는 내 별이자 나의 우주니까
    지금 이 시련도 결국엔 잠시니까
    너는 언제까지나 지금처럼 밝게만 빛나줘
    우리는 너를 따라 이 긴 밤을 수놓을 거야
    너와 함께 날아가 (가)
    When I'm without you, I'm crazy
    자 어서 내 손을 잡아 (아)
    We are made of each other, baby
    You (you), you are (you are) my universe
    And I (I) just want (just want) to put you first
    And you (you), you are (you are) my universe
    And you make my world light up inside
    My universe (you, you are)

Spiderman was upset when Mary Jane Watson Parker hydro girl about to dease and vanish. I like the clone Mary Jane Watson Parker hydro girl said to Peter Parker to finds the real Mary Jane Watson that she always love Peter Parker. Spiderman say noooo!!

    One aspect of the show that I found very clever is how most of the villains work as counterpoint to Peter's story as their stories usually have a ironic ending that fits their obsessions. Just like them, Peter, when he got his powers, wanted to be famous and didn't care for others, a attitude that resulted in the death of Uncle Ben. But Peter learned from his mistake and broke the circle, choosing to be a selfless hero ranther than grumpy bully like Flash Thompson or J Jonah Jameson.
    The villains in the show all have objectives and selfish goals, but, unlike Spider man, they don't learn from their mistakes and end up suffering worse fates cause by their own ambition. For exemple:
    - The Kingpin does everthing to keep his position as the big crime boss in NY but this cost his wife (who leaves him) and his son (who goes to prision).
    - Doctor Octopus, in his first battle against Spider man, is defeated due to his refusal to let go of his invention.
    - In the "tablet of time" arc, Silvermane wanted to be young again and as result is turned into a baby, and so on.
    - Green Goblin not only is defeated by his own attempt to kill Spider man but in his first apperance the scene where Osborn is crushed by the Goblin statue represents him having to face his own reflection and see the truth: he is the one who ruined his own life (and also Kingpin, but it was Norman own decision to make deals with the crime boss).

    Anytime I read a Spidey comic, I always hear the voices from this show. I love Christopher Daniel Barnes as Spider-Man, one of my favourite portrayals. Him and Tobey made my childhood. Excellent video!

    Implicitly Pretentious’s multiple analyses (analysi?) of Spider-Man are some of the best out there, he really gets all the different versions of the character, from the original comic to different interpretations, this guy gets every facet of Spider-Man.

    Something that I also really liked about this show is that Black Cat is given a lot more depth compared to other interpretations. She isn't just a Catwoman knock-off, she's her own character with her own fears and goals. Also, they show a more heroic side of her that isn't seen much anywhere else.

    I just realized something: Spider-Man The Animated Series' fifth season SERVED AS RAIMI'S CLEAREST INSPIRATION FOR HIS SPIDEY FILMS! Think about it: the Uncle Ben that Spider Carnage faces feels like Raimi's interpretation of Uncle Ben (except he encourages Peter to grow up instead of holding Peter accountable for Ben's great-power-great-responsibility dream), and the season itself dives the most into the show's general "darkness"; and fitting that Raimi is known for his work in horror.

    • @WhiteFangofWar
      @WhiteFangofWar Před rokem +3

      The Raimi films definitely took a lot of inspiration from this show: the Green Goblin being an alternate personality of Norman Osborn created by his exposure to chemical gas. Otto Octavius being a cool guy and a mentor of Peter's before going mad. Eddie Brock being Peter's rival at the Daily Bugle. The Venom Symbiote causing its host to become super aggressive. Spidey mysteriously losing his powers during a period of stress. Introducing Gwen Stacy at the end instead of the beginning.

    I find it odd that Venom despite being redeemed, Carnage being his arch enemy in the comics and being able to be a ally from Peter's world, does not make a return appearance and is left to his horrible fate. Venom also doesn't get a cameo when showcasing the other Spider-Man spinoff characters like Miles and Spider-Gwen despite being the first. Couple this with utter warping of the Venom symbiote's character and to a lesser extent Eddie, it makes me wonder if the writer had something against the character.

  • @Xehanort10

    3:29 I always found that weird. The DCAU shows had characters punching each other, using real guns and being killed off. So did the X-Men animated series. The Spider-Man TAS characters calling death being destroyed was unintentionally funny.

  • @BNumbersStation
    @BNumbersStation Před 2 lety +32

    This is why I love this channel so much. Leo manages to find value in things that I couldn't see at first glance. I watched this show a lot when I was a kid, and now that I'm in my 20s I went back to it out of nostalgic whimsey, and I was so caught up in the bad CGI cityscapes, and obvious toy grabs, that I couldn't see the deeper meaning of Peter's journey, and while the execution may be questionable, the message is stronger than it was before watching this video.
    p.s. as weird as Semper's version of Peter Finds Mary Jane story was, it was still infinitely better than One More Day.

    I remember the transforming arc when he first gets his powers. He had a dream where he was transformed into a spider but still had his human head and Aunt May flushed him down the sink. Then the drain leads him to a lake where he grows or something and the military kill him. I don't know what is was but that shook me up as a kid.

    I like the way that back in the 90s H G Wells not only wrote the book 'The Time Machine' (which is a nice little read by the way, plus I've always enjoyed the 1960s film version with Rod Tyler) but they would always have actually invent one for real.
    'Lois and Clark' went and did the exact same thing as well.
    Plus in 1985 the BBC put out a two part 'Doctor Who' story entitled 'Timelash' which had the Doctor meet H G Wells and after stowing away on the TARDIS, he went on an adventure into space and time, during which he experienced some things that were to go on and inspire his works.
    Also, and this isn't as well known, there was a (sadly no longer considered canon, thanks to the 1985 two parter) 1970s 'Doctor Who' comic strip called 'The Eternal Present' where the Doctor meets H G Wells, who turns out to have made his own time machine.
    You can tell that I'm a Whovian, can't you....
    I'll also add that in the book the main character isn't named, as he is only referred to as 'the Time Traveller' which I also th8nk inspired the BBC to make the Doctor a nameless mysterious alien.
    Happy Times and Places.
    Oh and just one more thing before I go....

Christopher Daniel Barnes IS the Voice of Spider-Man IMO.

    The part where Spider-Man says to Stan Lee that we all grow up eventually. Idk why but that line really hit me. I’m 21 now but I remember watching this show when I was a little kid. I never got to finish the show like a year or so ago. I was so upset that I never got to find out if Spider-Man ever found MJ. Then watching this and hearing Stan Lee saying that just really hit me and started crying. Wish they finished the show right rather then leaving it on the cliffhanger they did. Sucks that one of my childhood shows never got finished and finally knowing the full story of what happened to the series.
    PS* Also, amazing editing and song. Thank you so much for completing a piece of my childhood in explanation❤
