Photographic Proof That Spider-Man Musical Is $60 Million Down The Drain

[archvile93]

if you don't want to do something ambitious that's never been seen before, why do you bother?"

To make a lot of money. Is that really so hard to figure out?

 

[solidstatemind]

Wait... whaa? Whuu? Guuh???

Did I stay asleep until April 1st?

This has to be a joke, right?

Right???

[HEADING=2]RIGHT?!?!![/HEADING]

 

[Comma-Kazie]

Please . . . PLEASE tell me this is a bad joke.

Please?

 

[Zakarath]

...SPIDERMAN MUSICAL? WTF?

This deserves to crash and burn.

 

[CleverCover]

Maybe it's so bad it's good?

Doesn't matter, no one would go see it with me to even check it out.

@Original poster: Taking a few liberties with the term "proof", dontyathink?

There used to be a free for patrons Spider-Man musical at Universal Studios Hollywood. It followed the movie plot line to a T.

I just remember laughing my ass off as the thugs who tried to rape Mary Jane sang "She Bangs" by Ricky Martin and Spider-Man danced through them to save the day.

The Green Goblin sounded like a German death metal vocalist, and shot fireworks everywhere.

 

[Krantos]

Wait... This is real? O_O

JHC, I thought this was a gag. I never would have thought anyone was stupid enough to really make this thing.

Wow. Just, Wow.

$60 million dollars?! They got 60 million dollars to make a Spider-man musical and no one can get enough money to make Battlefront 3?! rrrrraaaaaaaaggeeeeeee......

If I kill myself, and in the suicide note, blame it on the Spiderman Musical, and they cancel it, I feel that my death would have made the world a better place.

But sometime later some corporate idiot will convince someone to rehash it to make money off it and then ill probably join you -w-

 

[Caligulove]

May not be this time, but a Spideman musical will happen one of these days

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I want to see this now. It seems like such stupid corny fun. Plus I love when people are pissed off at stuff so I might just go see it for the luls and then claim that it is the one true spiderman canon whenever the opportunity arises.

 

[Aura Guardian]

I think that this will be better than Spiderman 3...even if its bad

 

[Flying Dagger]

Sorry but this looks awesome.

And as with any musical, will live or die on the strength of it's performers and musical numbers.

I get the feeling very few of the commenters here have ever seen a musical in their life...

Addendum: the pictures don't even look real, at first I thought it was a film because I couldn't see how they could have those sorts of things in a theatre. If it's like an hour long spiderman themed acid trip then I cannot see how anyone can complain.
I didn't realise that the part of High School Musical people objected to was the "Musical" bit, I assumed it was the "High School".

Also it's a theatre run, so I don't know how much it costs over the sea for you guys to go, but they tend to wring a lot more per customer then a film does, meaning much smaller audiences are needed.

Well this is the dumbest idea for a musical I've hears since the fictional Planet of the Apes Musical of The Simpsons:


"This play has EVERYTHING"

 

[DoW Lowen]

We can ***** and moan all we want, but if we had the chance we'd still see it, if only out of morbid curiosity.

 

[Avery Morris]

I always new it would come to this eventually. It always Does

 

[Sixties Spidey]

Jesus, my eyes want to pop out of my skull and beat me to death for laying eyes upon this. Gah. I'm gonna blindfold myself now.

I just saw the musical trailer, that looks preetty awesome to me, maybe not in the traditional spiderman way, but in the awesomme, surreal way that a high budget musical should. I actually really really want to see this
