As shocking as it sounds, long before Sam Raimi’s 2002 adaptation, there was a Spider-Man. The 1977 version was a TV pilot that was turned into a film in which the iconic superhero battles with an evil self-help guru. Spider-Man began as a pilot that only screened in foreign theaters. As a result, episodes from the television series were recut and released outside the US as Spider-Man Strikes Back a year later. The original Spider-Man was a gigantic cinematic undertaking that took 17 long years to come into fruition. Surprisingly, iconic director James Cameron came very close to making his own version of the movie in the 90s.
