The Marvel Team-Up you NEVER expected: RiffTrax: Spider-Man 3

Mike Nelson, formerly of Mystery Science Theatre 3000, continues to provide smart-alec commentary to films at RiffTrax, where you can buy MST3K-style mp3 commentary tracks to play along with your own DVD's at home.

On some of the tracks he's accompanied by either some of his former MST3K alumni, or special celebrity guests. But I never expected this:

The biggest Spiderman movie of 2007 is now the biggest Spiderman-based Rifftrax of 2008! All your favorite characters return (Hoffman, Mr. Ditkovich, Ursula) and new favorites join in the fun (Crane Operator, Emergency Room Doctor, Kid in Central Park)!

And joining Mike is writer/ newspaperman/ radio guy/ blogger extraordinaire/ podcaster/ best-selling author and uber-fan of the Spiderman series James Lileks! Just what will his reaction be when he sees what they've done to his beautiful series? Will he freak out and begin hitting Mike with a folding chair? Yes, he did, but we edited that out of this ArachnaRiffic Rifftrax and left only the funny!
(emphasis mine)

Let the Riffing (and the Bleating) begin!

You can buy the RiffTrax here.

You can (and should) read James daily at his blog, The Bleat.
