Why they did not put Japanese Spiderman in the Spiderverse flicks is something I can't understand. Who WOULDN'T want to see Leopardon kicking ass on screen?
Captain America not using a shield and just only a fucking gun is the funniest shit. I’ve been fucking crying for 10 minutes at that clip of him just gunning down 2 men straight faced
Somehow Blade feels completely out of place on this list, in fact I thought it was released after 2000. That movie is just too good. Anyway, you deserves more views dude, Great video!
lul that's an excellent way of putting it. It's crazy how much of the film footage in this video is so grainy, you can tell Marvel movies were not in a good place before 2000.
Fantastic video 👏🏿 documentary however The Punisher and Blade were the best as they were for mature audience, Blade saved Marvel Punisher had a great cast, yet a poor budget so bad the costume designer is the set designer, Hulk got better there were plans introduce Jennifer Walters in Hulk, not as a cousin the TV series had Banner sister i.e why She-Hulk was created. New World pictures a disaster due to chapter 11, all there TV shows suffered again great video thanks again.
23:45 "The villain is a guy doing a Jim Carey impression" OK, but that's Max Headroom and Jim Carey's entire career is essentially a Max Headroom impression...
Blade is the real starting point for modern superhero films, before X-Men. That '79 Cap America is so Bob Ross lol. That Thor does look like a fun guy to watch.
Japanese Spiderman wasn't brought to the states because the executives thought that kids wouldn't like it. I can tell you as a child of the seventies I would have loved it!
I recall hearing about how the stunt coordinator specifically decided to take inspiration straight out of the actual Spider-Man comics from the time for how Spider-Man (Takuya Yamashiro) moved in the show. That combined with the really accurate costume helmed by Eaves Brooks makes this a fairly accurate Spider-Man.
funny thing is the costume is the same as the nicholas hammond spiderman just with different masks it was a costume marvel specifically gave out to people doing spidey projects theres a video on youtube of the history of it
The Punisher movie wasn't a masterpiece by a long stretch, but Dolph Lundgren was great casting for the punisher. He had the physicality required for the role and I feel that his tired and expressionless look perfectly conveyed a dead inside death seeker.
@@torquetheprisoner ok i gotta know what you are referencing, ive seen the movie a billion times and i cant pick what you may be talking about, Barry Otto's character (shake) always speaks in rhyme and at one point he says he should have tried some Eugene O'Neill (when he gets thrown out of the pub) but other than the fact that hes an actor who shirks responsibility and cant keep appointments.. i'm at a loss :)
I met Lou in real life at comic con and he is the sweetest guy ever. I talked to him for like 20 minutes just about his experiences and what he thought about about the new stuff he said he had ought most respect for the new stuff and I honestly had the most fun talking to him and he is just a kind soul.
Blade should be WAY higher on this list, it is genuinely entertaining and on a list we’re the majority of these movies are boring shit then that matters.
@@dolier2802 I don’t know about better, but other than Blade their are still some other good or fun movies here like the Hulk pilot (I also got a soft spot for Roger Corman’s Fantastic Four but that’s half because of nostalgia)
I'm watching this video and staring at the Captain America serial spine. When you finally pulled it out, it was confirmed: that's the replacement DVD cover I designed after being disappointed with the one that came with the (official?) release! So cool to see it out in the wild like that!
Yeah, this is a weird ranking system. Talks about being faithful to the comics and proceeds to rank Japanese Spiderman as number 1 (I'm not hating on the show but that has got to be the most unfaithful to the source material though they did intend it that way). And wait, Japanese Spiderman isn't even a movie, it's a TV show-he just picked an episode of that. I don't know if that counts. And by the way, it's not about making fantasy movies "realistic", it's about making them as honest as possible (verisimilitude as what Richard Donner called it). Believing in the approach, the world being built, and the rules that go along with it. I can't believe Blade ranked lower than the Reb Brown Captain America movies. To each his own, I guess.
@@mistermastermind528 There is a Japanese spider man movie though, I’m pretty sure it was made as a series finale. Most theatrical Tokusatsu are very short though, about the length of 1-2 episodes. Edit: I was wrong about the finale thing, it was made between episodes 10 and 11.
The fact they never got HassleHoff to make a cameo as an alternate nick fury in the latest spiderman movie is criminal!!! 😭😭😭 you know he would so be up for that!! He was in the SpongeBob movie as himself ffs!!😂
As an editor by trade I gotta say your editing here is super engaging to watch. I can imagine the countless hours it must’ve taken to comb through all that footage. I rarely comment on videos, but just wanted to pass along my compliments to the chef, as it were.
I watched both the 70s American Spider-Man series and the Japanese Spider-Man series last year and I actually loved them both. They stunts they were able to achieve with the technology they had is honestly Marvelous, there are real shots of Spider-Man climbing up the Empire State Building that don’t use any kind of CGI at all. I really wish these movies got more credit for pioneering the superhero movie genre. Marvel should make official releases of all of these series and stop trying so hard to bury film history.
I'm sorry, but Howard the Duck is objectively good. In addition, I believe it's the very first instance of the "superheroes have to stop the sky beam to save the world" trope to which all future movies would copy.
very goofy to see Matt Frewer as the villain in "Generation X" compared to jim carrey as Carrey sites Frewer (Max headroom) as one of his big inspirations :P
He didnt like Blade, that is enough for me not to trust him, his critique is valid but the sheer fun and coolnes factor of Blade started the modern superhero genre@@InertiaCreeps
Bill Bixby was incredible, and the original Incredible Hulk movie is very good, despite the 70's effect. Bill Bixby's performance really sells the emotion.
I watched Captain America and Captain America II: Death Too Soon as a kid. I don’t remember almost anything about them, but for some reason, I have a memory of them being the exact same movie with the only change being the opening titles having the title of Death Too Soon in it.
47:23 That's revisionist history and pure bias. Blade, X-Men, and Spider-Man, are the ones that got marvel movies back on track. And the incredible hulk series was extremely popular for a while and made a lot of people hulk fans
I live in Belgium, people still to this day think of Lou Ferrigno and Bill Bixby when you say "Hulk". When the MCU started, my mom knew Hulk, she told me "I loved the show they did in the 70's", and I watched it as a kid, too (my mom had a DVD of a few episodes). And I agree, the comic book films crazed's genesis is with Blade, Raimi's Spidey and Singer's X-Men.
Yep, a lot of people forgot that those 3 trilogies brought Marvel back. Unfortunately, all 3 of them had a mediocre third film to end them, but the first and second movies revived the Marvel universe completely.
This video’s incredible, to the editing, music, writing and concept are all very interesting and great. I’ve never even heard of some of these. Great video man good job
The thing about all previous Spider Man movies that producers failed to grasp was casting a Peter Parker that looked like a high school student and not a 33 year old.
The Spider-Man "films" were episode compilationsshown in movie theaters overseas (along with The Incredible Hulk). According to Reb Brown, CBS picked up Captain America for a six episode season. It was to crossover with both Spider-Man and Hulk shows somehow. CBS decided to cancel all of the superhero shows (except for the Hulk). Even thecSpidey and Hulk shows were supposed to crossover while both shows were on (another opportunity came up later but fell through thanks to Universal Studios coqk blocking because they weren't allowed the level of control that they wanted). It is saud tgat we would've seen a version of the black and white costume.
45 million budget was not low not high back then, tentpole movies where already over 100million, X-Men two years later had 75 million, and Spider Man had 140million as you can see Blade literally kickstarted the super-hero movie craze
I was maybe a couple minutes into this video until you made me not want to watch it no more by saying that it all started with X-Men. Blade is what put the whole marvel cinematic universe on the map every single marvel movie in arguably superhero movie has found success from blade success. The movie blade single-handedly saved marvel comics as a company. And is the reason why they were able to make the movie X-Men in the first place
this was a fascinating watch, thank you for going through this effort! Both the editing and the narration were engaging and well polished. Much love from this new viewer!
Blade 1998; is more competently made and has more cinematic prowess. Than any other movie on this list. It is the only movie here that is watchable in the sense. That it isn’t made by incompetent morons, or isn’t cheaply produced.
At first I thought the villain from Generation X was played by Dwight Shultz, who was Murdock from The A Team. Looking it up I discover it’s actually the actor who was Max Headroom! That’s awesome!
The Spider-Man films are actually reedited versions of episodes from the 77 series on CBS. Also, a pair of two part episodes for the Incredible Hulk were likewise reedited into films released overseas. The 2 parter "Married" was a #1 film in Europe.
I didn’t grow up with the Incredible Hulk series but somehow I owned a dvd of the pilot episode as a kid and man… I don’t think I was ever more into a Hulk story before. That whole opening scene where you just see Bruce and his wife being the happiest couple in the world, only to see his wife killed and Bruce survive in the saddest way possible. Just… dude. Not since Pixar’s Up had an opening scene give more emotional whiplash in the most gut-wrenching way. There was some legitimate filmmaking being done on that pilot, and I’m glad that it’s still recognized all these years later.
I'm going to be honest when I was mindlessly scrolling a few days ago to add things to my watch later playlist, I could've sworn I read this video had 1M views. When I finally got around to watching it just now, imagine my shock about halfway through the video when I realized what the view count was actually at! I was more than convinced I was watching a video deserving of 1M+ views. You make knock-out videos that go well beyond the accepted standard for most media review and commentary on youtube. Your efforts are realized and appreciated by me, and I hope you get some more subscribership soon, as you've proven to be a consistently great content creator that is worth subscribing to. Also I don't think you could've done a better line read at 7:52 I had far too long of a laugh at this guys old gum head.
Everyone leaves out Men In Black. It was a Malibu Comics property, but Malibu was bought by Marvel shortly before the film came out. Marvel is the company mentioned in the opening credits (before the bug splats on the windshield) giving Marvel its first success in the theaters. (I think it's a tie or something with Blade, coming out around the same time.)
Idk what your talking about the Punisher was good and better then the updated version at least he Punished the bad guys unlike the Punisher today who was Punished his self, Blade was no joke and put Marvel back on the map as it saved Marvel smh
I would, personally, place HOWARD THE DUCK, BLADE, and DOCTOR STRANGE much higher on my list, but I thoroughly enjoyed your examinations in this comprehensive review. Thank you for your service. 👍
I totally own all of these lol. The Hulk TV movies are my favorite, and I’m so happy to see some respect for the earnestness of Fantastic Four. This was an excellent video. I subscribed and look forward to more.
At some point I wanted to watch all movies/ tv shows related to comic books and I’m pretty much done with everything post 2000 and I’ve been struggling hard trying to convince myself to watch these old movies, and thanks to you I now know not to waste my time! I’m not even talking shit lol I appreciate it fr these are cool to look at and acknowledge their existence but that’s about it
Wow, dude, I think the only part of this video I would have rethought was your final line. Beyond that, this is a solid editorial and video essay. I am very impressed with your level of research.

When I finally got around to watching it just now, imagine my shock about halfway through the video when I realized what the view count was actually at! I was more than convinced I was watching a video deserving of 1M+ views.
You make knock-out videos that go well beyond the accepted standard for most media review and commentary on youtube. Your efforts are realized and appreciated by me, and I hope you get some more subscribership soon, as you've proven to be a consistently great content creator that is worth subscribing to.
Also I don't think you could've done a better line read at 7:52 I had far too long of a laugh at this guys old gum head.
You forgot the Turkish spiderman and Captain America movie from the 60s as well as a few others
The Turkish one definitely isn't an officially licensed marvel movie so that's probably why it's not included. Not sure about the others.
Blade was my favourite film back in the day. Might give it a spin tonight
Bro i have them all... including the Captain America Serials in 1944.
I have all except 3 of them!!!!
This is great stuff! Thanks for all the info, because not much is known about the behind-the-scenes stuff in the pre-internet era
Everyone leaves out Men In Black. It was a Malibu Comics property, but Malibu was bought by Marvel shortly before the film came out. Marvel is the company mentioned in the opening credits (before the bug splats on the windshield) giving Marvel its first success in the theaters. (I think it's a tie or something with Blade, coming out around the same time.)
8:33 the “Fake out hand shake” killed me, oh man, that’s genius!😂😂😂
Only a couple minutes in but this is an extremely well made video so far
The DVD format is back!!! You love to see it.
Idk what your talking about the Punisher was good and better then the updated version at least he Punished the bad guys unlike the Punisher today who was Punished his self, Blade was no joke and put Marvel back on the map as it saved Marvel smh
I would, personally, place HOWARD THE DUCK, BLADE, and DOCTOR STRANGE much higher on my list, but I thoroughly enjoyed your examinations in this comprehensive review.
Thank you for your service. 👍
I'm leaving this comment so it helps more people see this amazing video. Really fun and well done!
I totally own all of these lol. The Hulk TV movies are my favorite, and I’m so happy to see some respect for the earnestness of Fantastic Four. This was an excellent video. I subscribed and look forward to more.
the rodger corman fantastic 4 is a good unreleased movie
Blade should be Number One (even if the second is better)
The editing on this is crazy good, amazing work on that!! Also very enjoyable narration and critique
At some point I wanted to watch all movies/ tv shows related to comic books and I’m pretty much done with everything post 2000 and I’ve been struggling hard trying to convince myself to watch these old movies, and thanks to you I now know not to waste my time! I’m not even talking shit lol I appreciate it fr these are cool to look at and acknowledge their existence but that’s about it
I had no idea how many of these existed...
Great video, dude. Thanks for the goodies.
David Hasselhoff looked good as Nick Fury ...too sad he didnt go in series
Wow, dude, I think the only part of this video I would have rethought was your final line. Beyond that, this is a solid editorial and video essay. I am very impressed with your level of research.
Idk how blade is so low on the list based on your explanations of the other movies
Rage bait or awful taste. I'd say rage bait.
Could you watch all DC movies before 2000 and make a video of it..pls🙃. Loved the video dude
You placed Blade at 11!?!?!? Video & opinion invalid!
Lol...no rebuttles...no thumbs down...just truth
