Pff.  Get with the *times*, daddio - the Japanese phrase of choice these days is 'supah cool'.

I'm well used to Japanese toku shows thanks to the wonders of the interweb, and I'm of the opinion that if someone was to show that over here as part of a 'cult viewing' package, like a themed weekend of tv or something, it would go down a storm.  Even the 'funny' subtitles don't disguise that the Japanese Spiderman is more entertaining than the American live-action tv show of the same name.
Mind you, that was gash.  There's no denying it, really.

Fantastic, even without the comedy subtitles. I particularly like the WHEEEE! sound effect when he swings on his webbing.

They were probably just the dodgy white ropes that shot out of his web spinners in the TV show from americay.

Ah, I remember now. It was actually rope, pretty lame.

Japanese Spider-Man has a giant Transformer.

I am in awe.

I love the way they've transformed Spider-Man into Kamen Rider....I also like the evil, scanily clad woman

If only they'd do that for Judge Dredd

Drokk, yet another flying roboto!

according to the Japan expert in my house, the evil woman in the movie was a famous 'adult movie' actress. Perhaps Spiderman was to have been her big break...

Dude, I didn't subject myself to the Indian Superman. Do let me know if it's a must-see.

I think it was developed in the deepest levels of Hell. Developed to torture the likes of Hitler, Charlie Manson, and George Bush.
