In early 2000, Sam Raimi was approached by Columbia Pictures to direct and produce a TV Pilot for a new series based on the popular Marvel comic book character Spider-Man. After a series of script drafts, the pilot was cast with a few big names and filmed in late 2001. Ultimately, the pilot was passed on and locked away in Columbia's vaults, and was not released in any form officially, but a VHS tape was passed around after the production was complete, in the form of low-generation bootleg VHS tapes.

Presented here for the first time as a high quality VHS copy, it's the unaired pilot of Spider-Man: The Series!

This Fan Edit will combine Marc Webb's duology to show you the ultimate Spider-Man stand alone origin story. Using my original ideas from my first Spider-Man fan edit, The Organic Eggs Edition, we will explore Peter Parker's parent's story and the introduction of Harry Osborn as Peter's friend, as it always should have been, along with Chris Cooper as Norman Osborn.

Taking just the necessary footage from the second movie, and making the necessary cuts, to give this Spider-Man story, not only a perfect closure, but to modify it in a way so it approximates the spirit and characters from the comics. Cuts and deleted scenes were included in this Fan Edit that help character development and fills some plot holes.

I am combining the origin story from the 1st film with the villain from the 2nd film (Doc Ock) and any scene from the 3rd on that could be useful to make a new story mostly on Peter and his journey to become a hero, simplifying the awful romance with Mary-Jane to the very basics and essentials, removing all useless side characters, getting rid of some side-plots and making it a little more serious by removing many of the stupid campy stuff from the first 2 movies.
