This is great stuff! Kudos to you for posting all these Spidey episodes. I remember watching these in the 70s. Loved the musical scores too! It really set the backdrop, mood, and tempo of each episode. Tell me, is it just me, or did episodes in Season 3 of Spiderman, which generally ran through the late 60s and early 70s, see darker and more psychadelic than the earlier Spidey episodes? I guess it was the sign of the times coming into the 70s.
Channel 44 WSNS in Chicago showed both Spiderman and Rocket Robin Hood in the seventies. It would've been funny if they aired the two episodes back to back.
The tune LSD is one of my all time favorite Spidey tunes... they also used it in Spidey Battles the Molemen. Bill Martin and Phil Coulter made alot of the more memorable Spidey music. lol
Thanks. I finally managed to get a hold of this and most of the other Spiderman incidental musical scores - Hell Raisers, Action Stations, Zero Hour, etc. There's still a few more I'd like to get. I've loved these tunes since I was a kid.
These shows were the best of the series. I got to find out what it was like being on drugs without being on drugs. I was wondering, though, how do aliens across the universe speak English?
I remember watching this one Saturday when I was veeeeeeeery young (we're talking like 3 or 4...) It was really early in the morning, I was half awake and this cartoon freaked me out so bad I thought I was still asleep and having a nightmare.
Possibly the best animated hard-science fiction tale ever put on tv. NOT the usual for standard American fare,where the hero can do anything.
The supporting characters, plot and antagonist play a larger role than the hero. Here he only pops up by accident, is helpless most of the time, barely escapes with his life.
A unique, fascinating, scifi story. It scares not through today`s shock value/in-your face violence, but with eerie music, backgrounds, frightful, very alien characters.
I remember this episode. It didn't bother me much at first, but as I grew up, I came to understand its surreal nature and "great psychedelia." lol. Gotta love wiki.
This episode was not originally aired by ABC during the initial run of the series. They felt that the storyline was too "heavy" for young children."Sting of the Scorpion/Trick or Treachery" aired in its place.
...the one part of this episode which has really stuck with me all of these years starts at the 4:00 mark and culminates with: "Farewell...farewell to everything..." (4:20)
The Bakshi episodes had great music, seemed to concentrate more or the lyrical backgrounds and themes to make up for the lack of animation. I prefer the Bakshi episodes since they are more geared toward older teens/adults than the 1st season. IMHO
the grantray-lawrence animation was much more simple than bakshi. Bakshi's animation was weird and psychedelic. but he had some good episodes too.this was one of them. the origin of spiderman, home, and sky boy were some of my favorites. but i love all of the first season(1967)of spiderman. some of those unknown characters(villians) of the bakshi era were too weird!
Can anyone tell me if the version of this story in Rocket Robin Hood has been put up and what is it's title is? I also remember an episode of that show where they are trying not to full asleep unless they'll die. Have they dumbed down Cartoon since then or was this a flash in the pan?
The Rocket Robin Hood version was on YouTube, but was removed due to copyright issues. The whole copyright mess is limiting the amount of video treasures we can enjoy.
I agree totally....It was much creepier...Oh I found out the RocketRobinHood series though scheduled to be released on DVD last year by Warner encounterd some legal issues finally they cancelled it...Very disappointing!!Thought I shared this info with you!!Take Care!!
hey, without a doubt. That era was so creative. These cartoons hold something very dear in creativity and originality. I'm still a big Spiderman fan into my 50's
