Forum talk:Spider-Man Parodies

Look, I'm sorry, but I don't think Arachnid Boy is a good name. It sounds more like a copy then a parody (not that it is, but it sounds like one) and there are other problems...


 * There are NO SPIDERS in Antarctica.
 * Arachnid is a slightly complicated word. It may not seem like it, but studies show (studies by peope who's names I forgot instantly) that charicters with names like that tend to seem much less funny.
 * Observe:
 * Ice-Pod(funny)
 * I-Container(not funny)
 * Ban(funny)
 * Penguin Death(not funny)
 * Of course, they can be funny, but usually not.
 * Arachnid Boy woud have to be a fairly tight parody (since the name is so close, ther's not much room for variation) and Spider-Man isn't funny. Great comic, but not very funny.

So, my solution? Not Spider, not Arachnid, but Crab! Definitely native to the USA, looks enough like a spider to manage, but not too like a spider. Let's change it now, before the artice get's made!-- N   ⊘    tAnEditor  09:59, September 6, 2009 (UTC)
