Featuring direction by Tony® Award-winner Julie Taymor, music and lyrics by 22-time Grammy® Award-winners Bono and The Edge, a book co-written by Taymor and Glen Berger and one of the most iconic title characters of all time, SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark is the most ambitious production ever undertaken on Broadway and finds astonishingly fresh ways to tell a story inspired by over 40 years of Marvel comic books. The show follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down when he's bitten by a genetically altered spider and wakes up the next morning clinging to his bedroom ceiling. This bullied science-geek suddenly endowed with incredible powers soon learns, however, that with great power comes great responsibility as villains put both his physical strength and strength of character to the test. SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark will thrill the audience through a unique entertainment experience in ways never- before-dreamed-possible in live theater.

You know LEE, I'm actually beginning to think the same thing! While I'm not a huge fan of some of the character designs we've seen so far, the three villains revealed in this video all look great...especially Hammerhead! I'll definitely check it out if it finds it's way over to the UK at some point. :)

It is a pity though that there's a lot of great looking villains and yet they've still somehow managed to completely [frick] up the most iconic Spider-Man villain, the Green Goblin. And dont get me started on "Swiss Miss"...

all of you still TRYING to bash this (especially you deadpool) are just in denial of how good this actually looks, you'd hate to admit that you were wrong. at least Lee can say that it looks bad ass. hopefully this teaches you guys to stop judging a book by its cover, or in our case, by its title

If the reviews for it are decent, then I might head over to NYC and go see it. Give it a shot, thats all you can do.

@xenix....technically, you don't see spider-man singing in his mask.

@lilej2...I agree, people are trying super hard to hate and bash, without giving it a chance

To all,

Here's my link regarding "60 Minutes" behind the scenes.




Don't mean to be spammy, but I'm sure there should be some good stuff Sunday.
