On January 29, the premiere of the first two episodes of the new animation series “Your Friendly Spider-Man” (your friendly Spider-Man district) took place. The project did not arouse much interest, but the makers chose a drawing in the style of old strips, which at least a bit, but intrigued. We have not missed the release of the series and have already viewed the available episodes. It turned out in vain. Details in the article.

Spider-Man was and remains one of the most important superheroes of our time. When the Russian children of the 90s were not heard about all kinds of Tony Starkov and Steve Rogers, the friendly neighbor Peter Parker storms all his heart in an old animation series. Since then there have been three official cinema versions, as well as many other adjustments. To date, it is difficult to find a person who could not tell Orajin this character. Moreover, Spider-Man had an important advantage over the rest of the supervisors, who distinguished himself with the inhabitants: Peter constantly had daily problems. The Czech with work, personal life, constant delays and attempts to find a place in this world were close to ordinary people. And although no one flew on the internet, there were still enough common points.
In many ways, it was daily landing that it became characteristic of absolutely all versions of spiders – regardless of age and interpretations. Even Disney and Tom Holland only built one of this idea on a whole first film, when a very young Peter learned to pay attention to the difficulties of people from the region, and not a global threat to the level of Avengers.

In the new series, the makers suddenly decided to leave the above. On the contrary, because it is fashionable to call, to modernize it today. The Cartoon Spider of the 2025 monster simply goes to high school. He has a young aunt (yes, as in the latest films), and he himself is just a good Chill Guy without visible problems.
And here the first difficulties begin. For some reason, the authors decided to show that to Orijin a good idea a million times. But genetically modified spiders are too boring nowadays, so Parker bites Spider from parallel reality. Yes, no form of, but from the person in which Dr. Strandge now fights with a strange horned poison. Say it looks like porridge? You will be absolutely right. The screenwriters did not think through the rules of their own world and simply pushed everything that happened in the general Multi -Senior. Where does the spider come from, why is it not a symbiite, what kind of vein is it? What difference makes it! Only the “strange doctor” accidentally opened the portal.

However, the true idea will soon become clear. The maximum attention of the public in two pilot -delivery will be concentrated on the unrest of Peter’s School, which of course has a place to be, but in fact they do not move the plot. Yes, and it’s hard to call them problems. Bulling in an educational institution? Forget. There are all nice, no conflict and understanding. Problems with the first work? Yes, in no case, because the good doctor is of course not white, Connors is ready to take a chance in place in the company because of a child she saw for 3 hours.
What do you think of the modernization of popular characters?
All versatility of the situations that Peter is confronted came out regularly (nothing influenced) and fear of inviting a girl. Here you should probably remember Mary Jane or Gwen Staisi, but again. The Lady of the Heart becomes an independent noun (not white again) for three to four years older than Peter, who once took care of him in childhood. So she also looks … in general, very for an amateur. Think of all the passions of the spider and simply polish a nostalgic tear.

You have probably noticed that we mentioned two characters, each different in the skin color. In fact, everything is much worse. Absolutely everything with whom Peter communicates well, or not white, or broad views on the concept of relationships. Even the best friend is now an informal Asian feminist.
Harry Ozborn will also flash, and he is not only an Afro -American, but also a hipster with earrings in his ears and a fashionable hairstyle. The local Flash Thompson, who, according to the Canons, should become a school antagonist Peter, here is also a stately Afro-Football player. Under no circumstances does he not tease a spectacle, but does he want to learn something new from him. Unicorns of pink are simply not enough.

Needless to say, how far is this all from realism, even because of the standards of Spider-Man? Instead of somehow it is interesting to present the eternal subjects associated with the character, the makers added so much, sorry, the gymere new -baked Chushi that they themselves made a cartoon of a dummy. It is impossible to associate yourself with such a spider, because in absolutely every school the atmosphere, to say the least, is different. It is just impossible to see what happens without laughing through tears.
Other cartoons reviews
Is it a joke, in one of the episodes they give good 7 minutes of the 30 total timing of the demonstration of how “non-flash thompson” returns home, white people shun him away, and a white agent drives from behind, who Keep an eye on the schoolboy. Should this not insult African Americans? At the same time, the hooligans, with whom the passing superhero fights, are also very strange. This is either a thin scorester, who for an unknown reason believed in himself and pays a threat to others, or an unemployed woman who steals the money from hopelessness, or a Peir-Moraine man who simply burned the wrong house. The last time we were so bad in looking at another masterpiece of animation – “Velma” (Velma).

Here it is necessary to make a comment because we have nothing against the variety of races and skin flowers, the same series of cartoons about Miles Morales turned out to be chic. However, you must always evaluate the suitability of such innovations. That it gives stories and characters; Or vice versa – takes away. If everything that brings the theme of the color of the skin or agenda is nothing more than the explanation of the authors on which they are swollen to focus, which could probably be without such chips. We came to watch Spider-Man and not suppressed by the toxic white people from a young football player. Think of Em-Jaus from Marvel Films. Zendaya (Zendaya) is a great actress and also not white. Are there three paintings at least something that emphasizes this? Of course not. She is an ordinary person and is no different than others.
Some turns also raise questions. In the cartoon, for example, they almost completely repeated the scene of Tony Stark and Peter Parker, only instead of a genius, billionaire and philanthropist, Ozbornne Sr. Visiting. Why was it so filthy – it’s incomprehensible.

Regarding the same drawing, stylized as old comics, there is nothing to be liked here. While looking at different screenshots, everything looks more or less not bad. But as soon as the models start to move, I want to get my eyes. For example, some characters turned out to be so terrible, for example, may the genuine bewilderment, as it could show. And funny moments are also connected to the drawing when the friend of Peter and his “love interest” literally have the same faces, but with different skin color and cosmetics. Jokes like the imitation of a stripom run are extremely rare, it will not surprise us if they have forgotten at all in future episodes. Hurns of Frames are better not to consider at all. They are usually strongly stored on drawing details, hoping that the viewer will simply not pay attention. In general, the idea with stiling does not justify itself.
“Your Friendly Spider Man” is a mediocre agenda that is incomprehensible to those who have been removed and does not have absolutely no artistic value. The first episodes are the most important, they have to fascinate and demonstrate the viewer, for which it is worth wasting time on the project. In this series there is no spark of creativity, nor something special, only solid statements from the authors about “important topics”. In miserable attempts, for some reason to modernize the character, the makers lost everything he had loved from. In exchange, we only got a fashion that will certainly pass. Will the series be relevant after a while? It seems that he is already outdated, even before the exit.
