Spiderman Movie:The Next Release
Is there no end to Spiderman’s popularity? The answer is a resounding “no”. Spiderman is one of those timeless classic superheroes which appeal to young and old alike, with Spiderman costumes continuing to be top sellers for fancy dress retailers.
Spiderman costumes are merchandised to adult and child alike, from the red Spiderman costume, to the new black Spiderman “Venom” look. Accessories include red or black gloves and boot covers with the classic webbing pattern printed on them. An enormous range of Spiderman toys, bed linen, lunch boxes and memorabilia is also widely available.
The next big-screen version of our hero is due in 2011, with the producers promising many more to follow. We now know that Spider-Man 1 and Spider-Man 2 are among the top twenty biggest grossing films of all time, so clearly the producers are not going to stop. It makes sense to stick with a winning formula.
Surprisingly a musical based on the superhero is being set up, called “Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark” which will be, according to reports,the most expensive production in Broadway history. The film will feature songs from U2, and is sure to be a great hit.
A report came in that in Thailand a child was rescued by a fireman wearing a spiderman outfit. Apparently the child crawled out on the roof to escape the fire and would not come back when called by his teacher. A fireman overhead his mother saying he loved spiderman. So we want back to the fire station, to put on a spidey outfit he just happened to have in his locker, and returned to coax the child back to safety.
When the boy saw the fireman he smiled and promptly threw himself into his superhero’s arms. It transpires the fireman keeps a Spiderman costume in his locker to liven up fire drills in schools.
Another international news story appeared in the Israeli press and had spiderman throwing ropes at cars in town and then jumping on top of them. You can see the power that our superhero has with men.
AS expected the police arrested him very quickly. Under questioning later, he recounted that he had woken up in hospital and found himself dressed in the costume. He remembered nothing else. So doctors were called in to asses his mental health. If they profiled many of us they would realize many have a secret desire to dress up and become Spiderman.
