#SPIDER MEME REMEMBER THAT TIME TV#
Watching Electro, Vulture and Goblin implode like that - largely because of ego when they seemingly couldn't lose - clearly left an unshakable impression on me.įor your reference, YouTube has the scene clipped that gave us the image we constantly see on #NBATwitter and many, many other Twitters:ġ. I'm still a child inside who has endless love and appreciation (for the first season especially) for Stan Lee's original Spider-Man TV series. Weakened and dazed but realizing that his best shot to dismantle the triumvirate was trying to turn them against each other, Spider-Man employed ventriloquism to spark the infighting among the villains that enabled him to ultimately capture all three as well as Boddy. Noah Boddy, one of Spider-Man's arch enemies, hatched a plan to help Electro, The Green Goblin and The Vulture escape from prison and ultimately destroy Spider-Man using new weapons Boddy developed for them. no matter what superpowers or how much superskill is possessed by the trio.įor those who aren't old (or warped) enough to remember "To Catch a Spider," allow me to reset the scene for you: Dr.
It was watching that installment in syndication in the late 1970s, since I wasn’t born yet when it debuted, that steered me to question the Durant/Harden/Irving Nets from the jump, since it was the first time I saw with my own eyes that it’s really hard to make a superstar trio work. And then there is the lesser-known episode that preceded it - "To Catch a Spider" - which is my absolute favorite and, as I recently realized, helped shape my views on Big Threes forever. There is the Spider-Man Pointing At Spider-Man meme that is stunningly commonplace in 2022, as every NBA fan on social media knows, from an episode called "Double Trouble" that featured a Spider-Man impersonator named Charles Cameo. 13, 1968, endure in this twisted brain to this day. In what shall forever rank on this scorecard as the greatest half-hour in the history of animation, two frames from two separate stories that originally aired on Jan. If you want to get technical, yes, I'm referring to what they used to call a cartoon in my youth.
Just like the "Prequel Memes" that draw from the much-ridiculed Star Wars prequels, each day sees a new batch of memes made from the Raimi Spider-Man movies rather than a diminishing fad. As Raimi-memers may say, quoting the villainous Doc Ock from later in the same film: "There's no stopping it now - it's self-sustaining.From the Now It Can Be Told Department: The original animated Spider-Man and one of his most unforgettable adventures contributed heavily to my skepticism that the Kevin Durant/James Harden/Kyrie Irving trio could establish a working coexistence in Brooklyn. While most memes are largely discardable, going into and out of vogue with astonishing rapidity, Raimi memes soon ascended into the next-level status in which their material never quite dies out. The focus on the scene became so great over time that the real-world pizza shop that served as the filming location for the pizza place Peter Parker works for became something of a Mecca to Raimi-memers, with the subreddit frequently featuring pictures of those who venture to the site to advertise their own personal partaking in the Time of Pizza.īy now, the phrase is something of a phenomenon showing no sign of slowing down. Many of the memes splice the phrase into scenes from elsewhere in the film series, or into other films altogether.
