Spiderman

I woke up early yesterday and couldn't get back to sleep, so I decided to turn on the tv. The only thing on besides infomercials was the old, old Spiderman cartoon. It was bad on so many levels, but I will mention only 1 here: Physics don't seem to exsist at all, even in the superhero physics sense. Take this picture for example. Spidey is WAY above any building in the city, what's the web hanging from? A cloud? He also did a pretty good job of swinging from non-existent tall buildings in the suburbs.
At the end of the show, spiderman is clinging to the wall of a building looking into a window. The "camera" looks over his shoulder to see what he sees. At the end of the scene, the camera zooms out and spiderman removes his hands from the wall and turns to the camera to say his final line. Someone should've said "Hey, Spidey! you're not hanging on to the wall anymore, shouldn't you be falling now?" But they didn't, and that's why the show got cancelled. The end.
