00:03Welcome to WatchMojo and today we're counting down our picks for the silliest Spider-Man
00:09spoofs out there.
00:10We'll be getting into spoilers for various movies and TV shows so consider this your
00:15warning.
00:2110.
00:26Symbiote Spider-Woman – Meet the Spartans
00:29Considering that there's a dude in this movie literally named Trey Toro, it should
00:33come as no surprise that he ends up betraying people.
00:36That sounds reasonable.
00:38I'm sure you would think so, Councilman Trey Toro.
00:42However, the way everything goes down is utterly hilarious.
00:46When Queen Morgan discovers the portrayal, she transforms into a symbiote Spider-Woman.
00:50It's an obvious gender-bent caricature of Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man, but the homages
00:55don't stop there.
00:56Trey Toro essentially morphs into Sandman and he and Morgan do a loose re-creation of
01:01the fights from Spider-Man 3.
01:04Look, this is dumb, but it's also peak wall-caller zaniness and we're here for it.
01:10Carmen Electra's been pretty funny in spoof movies before, but this segment easily takes
01:15the cake as her best comedic work.
01:17Step aside, Jessica Drew, the real best Spider-Woman is Queen Morgan.
01:27The Spider-Man with an unreliable spider sense, Robot Chicken.
01:31Spider-Man's been on Robot Chicken a lot, but this specific sketch is the one we're
01:36dying to talk about.
01:40You see, Peter Parker's spider sense is great since it warns him of imminent danger.
01:46But in this parody, it mostly just warns him of minor inconveniences.
01:50Milk gone bad, gum on the sidewalk, stuff like that.
01:53By turning his best superpower into an annoying notification system, Peter's life gets flipped
01:58around much to our enjoyment.
02:00Yes!
02:00After tonight, the vulture can't call me a virgin ever again!
02:04No!
02:05Shoot!
02:06Shoot!
02:06Come on!
02:06Let another part of me tingle for once!
02:09Things get so bad, he even dies trying to remove his spider sense.
02:13Laughing about a character dying is messed up, but the escalation of events is so tonally
02:18jarring, you can't help but chuckle at the absurdity of it all.
02:22Sometimes spider sense can be a serious pain in the butt.
02:26Well, Mr. Parker, it looks like you broke your ankle.
02:28Also, X-rays show a tumor at the base of your skull that is, for lack of a better word,
02:33tingling.
02:33Spidey is awesome whenever he's on Robot Chicken.
02:36And if you can't get enough of us discussing zany animated shows, then you're in luck.
02:40We cover all kinds of wacky, off-the-wall cartoons on WatchMojo's 24-7 live stream.
02:47Scan the QR code on screen to join us for a non-stop discussion about all things animation.
02:52Be more specific!
02:54Of course I'm in danger!
02:55I'm 102 feet above Manhattan!
02:58Number 8.
02:59The Spider-Plant Man
03:00Spider-Plant Man
03:01Wait, Mr. Bean was once Spider-Man?
03:04Well, not exactly.
03:14In this BBC One special, Rowan Atkinson plays a character named Spider-Plant Man.
03:19The lore goes that Peter Piper got bit by a spider plant, and the rest is history.
03:24The short film parodies the 2002 Sam Raimi Spider-Man, but also takes bonkers detour.
03:30For example, Batman is the villain.
03:44Holy copyright loopholes!
03:46Batman, what the heck are you doing in this movie?
03:49Plus, unlike traditional Spidey, Spider-Plant Man shoots vines instead of webs and moves less
03:55like a skilled superhero and more like a klutz.
03:57At the end of the day, Spider-Plant Man is a wacky wall crawler with an even crazier
04:02crew of villains, but hey, even plants need a champion too.
04:06It's hot here.
04:07Yeah.
04:08Yeah.
04:10Thank God that creepy pizza pipe is not here, eh?
04:14Yeah.
04:15Yeah.
04:15Thank God.
04:16Number 7.
04:17Spider-Stan.
04:18American Dad
04:19Frustrated by Hayley going to concerts and coming home late, Stan decides to teach his daughter
04:24a lesson.
04:24Where's Hayley?
04:25She went to some rock concert.
04:27Rock concert?
04:28Honey, it's just a concert.
04:31She went to listen to rock music, Francine.
04:33That's the devil's music.
04:34And since he's, well, Stan, he does it in a weird way.
04:38He dresses up in a spider costume and waits to ambush her.
04:42Though the plan backfires, we get treated to Spider-Stan in all of his comedic glory.
04:46What'd you do that for?
04:48You scared the hell out of me!
04:50Unlike Spider-Man, Spider-Stan leans heavier on the spider rather than the man.
04:54If you need an example, there's a scene where he hilariously webs himself to the ceiling
04:58so he can sleep there.
05:00He really leans into impersonating an arachnid, and it's both strange and funny.
05:05Stan goes to great lengths to teach a lesson, and even though the lesson failed, we respect
05:10his dedication to the bit.
05:16Ever wanted to see Homer Simpson become a superhero, you're in luck.
05:20After Lisa gets humiliated at a competition, Homer becomes a mysterious vigilante known
05:25as Pie Man.
05:26Shall we ever see Springfield's costumed protector again?
05:30Oh, I have a funny feeling we will.
05:33Wherever people are mistreated, the Pie Man will strike!
05:37Come on.
05:37He throws pies into people's faces.
05:40What's not to love about that?
05:42Admittedly, the red cape and bright blue outfit make him look more like a Superman parody.
05:47However, there's still some obvious parallels to Spider-Man.
05:50Comic book guy, don't do the crime if you can't do the key lime!
05:58How could this be any more humiliating?
06:00In fact, at one point, Homer rescues Marge in an alley for some trouble, and the two recreate
06:05the iconic upside-down kiss from the very first Spider-Man movie.
06:09Pie Man's an outlandish hero with a heart of gold, and him striking evildoers in the face
06:13with pies will never not generate laughs.
06:16We need a Pie Man movie pronto.
06:18Wherever injustice shows its ugly face, I will be there!
06:22I am the Pie Man!
06:25And wherever Pie Man is, the Cupcake Kid will not be far behind!
06:29Number 5.
06:30Brown Widow, The Venture Brothers
06:32This amazing cartoon started off as a spoof of the spy genre, but eventually shifted into
06:37satirizing superheroes and one of their biggest gag characters is the hero Brown Widow.
06:42End of the line, sir.
06:44Please remember to take all your personal belongings and be sure to dip your driver.
06:47Everything about him screams Spider-Man knockoff.
06:50Similar costume, similar build, similar backstory.
06:53He even shoots webs, too.
06:56Except, unlike Spider-Man, he shoots them out of his butt.
06:59Yeah, his powers quite literally make him the butt of the joke.
07:02Not in my parlor, said the spider to the butterfly.
07:06This bank is protected by the Brown Widow!
07:11Ah, did that just come out of my mouth?
07:13Brown Widow's also a great singer, apparently.
07:16At one point, when Rusty Venture is trying out some tunes, the Brown Widow joins in on the music.
07:21That's right, Spider-Man's a science nerd, while the Brown Widow is essentially the grown-up
07:26version of a web-slinging band kid.
07:28This wall crawler's a hot mess, and we can't get enough.
07:31Who's Rusty?
07:36I'm Rusty.
07:37Number four.
07:39The not-so-amazing spider smoocher, Saturday Night Live.
07:42Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone have insane chemistry as Peter and Gwen.
07:47Or, do they?
07:48This SNL sketch suggests otherwise.
07:50What did all that webbing say?
07:52I couldn't really make out the handwriting.
07:54It says, I love you, Gwen, and I'll follow you wherever you go.
07:57I love you, too, Peter.
07:59Besides, they got crime in England, right?
08:05The duo filmed a kissing scene for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, except neither actor knows how
08:10to properly kiss.
08:11This leads to several awkward smooches that show that this version of Spidey's not as
08:16smooth as we thought.
08:17Plus, we find out they used to rely on stunt doubles to film their romantic moments, which
08:22is hysterical.
08:23See, we had stunt doubles.
08:25Yeah, wow.
08:26I guess I just blocked that out.
08:28Honestly, what makes the whole thing even more iconic is how Andrew Garfield is the Spider-Man
08:33of this sketch.
08:34Doing a Spider-Man parody is cool, but having the real Spider-Man make a complete fool out
08:39of himself is way cooler.
08:40This Spider-Sketch is simply comedic gold.
08:43So why don't you go ahead and show me that beautiful little tongue?
08:46No.
08:47Come on.
08:48Come to papa.
08:49Number 3.
08:51Man Spider.
08:51It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
08:53This show's known for its wacky characters and Frank Reynolds is easily one of the craziest
08:58of the entire Always Sunny game.
09:00Yo, yo, yo!
09:01Look at the turn up for our party!
09:03Chiss!
09:04Chiss!
09:04Chiss!
09:05I want to suck you blood!
09:06He's a dysfunctional oddball and his stint as Man Spider is living proof of that.
09:11No, he wasn't a grotesque human-spider hybrid like the actual Marvel version, but he was
09:16the next best thing.
09:18During a Halloween costume party, Frank shows up wearing a spider-themed get-up and he insists
09:22that he's not Spider-Man, but actually Man Spider.
09:25First of all, don't say I went as Spider-Man.
09:28I didn't go as Spider-Man.
09:29I was Man Spider.
09:31Totally different!
09:32Regardless of which hero he is, the costume is undeniably ridiculous.
09:36The ball of clavula mask and goggles combo really sells the fact that this Spider-Varium
09:41is bizarre.
09:42Danny DeVito's Man Spider isn't just a neat visual gag.
09:46It's a truly legendary meme.
09:48Get this guy in the next Spider-Verse movie.
09:51Who cares?
09:52Who cares, right?
09:53Number 2.
09:54The Italian Spider-Man.
09:55Italian Spider-Man.
09:57Remember, anyone can wear the mask.
09:59And over time, we've seen some international versions of Spidey like Japanese Spider-Man
10:04and Spider-Man India.
10:05Hey, who's the new guy?
10:06Hey, Pa.
10:07He's Miles and he wasn't invited.
10:09Oh, you weren't invited and you came anyway.
10:12Right?
10:12Hey, new guy must be in love with you.
10:15Okay.
10:15No, I'm not.
10:16Oh, I'm very good at reading.
10:18No, he's not.
10:18However, Italian Spider-Man takes the cake as the strangest foreign Spidey.
10:23Originally uploaded to the internet as a series of short films, Italian Spider-Man is
10:27both a spy parody and a Spider-Man parody.
10:40He smokes, uses guns, and fights bad guys.
10:43This variant also doesn't use webs, meaning his best form of defense is slugging it out
10:48with any and all evildoers.
10:50Italian Spider-Man is an enigma.
10:52He looks like he belongs in the 70s, but he first showed up in 2007.
10:56He's an out of shape mischievous little jerk, but he's also incredibly fun to watch.
11:01Like Man Spider, this is yet another meme legend.

11:43Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider.
11:46But what if he got bitten by a different creature instead?
11:49Superhero movie humorously shows us what that could look like.
11:52He did it!
11:53In this spoof film, we meet Rick Riker, who gets bit by a radioactive dragonfly.
11:58He later becomes a hero, but he's not the most qualified crime fighter.
12:03That being said, watching him stumble through almost beat-by-beat recreation of Tobey Maguire's
12:07first Spider-Man movie is an absolute treat.
12:10He will never triumph, Sourglass!
12:12You'll pay for your crimes and justice will be-
12:15Stop!
12:16Stop!
12:17Stop!
12:19Are you okay?
12:22No!
12:22Dragonfly is portrayed as a joke, but honestly, the costume and powers show that he has potential.
12:28Interestingly, Drake Bell went from playing a fake Spider-Man to a real one since he later
12:33voiced Spidey in Ultimate Spider-Man.
12:35Hey, you know the saying, fake it until you make it.
12:38Go.
12:39Be a hero.
12:40Are there any hilarious Spider-Man parodies we missed?
