Lights Out! SPIDER-MAN: TURN OFF THE DARK's Broadway Run Comes To An End In January

PRAISE JESUS!!!

Been to broadway twice, I actually had to stop myself from going. Wanted to see a good comedy.

Just saw it wednesday and I liked it couldve been better but still good

I remember tuning into the Broadway station on XM radio, and the hosts had very positive things to say about Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark. I have to wonder if the people who saw this and hated it are even fans of Broadway musicals. I mean, I feel like if you went in expecting something even remotely resembling an action-packed blockbuster blockbuster, then you were destined to hate the musical with a passion.

At the end, it's revealed Spidey only did a Broadway show because he couldn't join The Avengers.

Next week Batman and The Super friends: Musical

Glad that nightmare is over.

They should have just dressed Spiderman as Gwen Stacey since he fell so many times!

This is sadder than when Gusto had to give up his theater career.

I thought they were going to remake the Munsters?

I saw it and I liked it. I give it 3 out of 4 stars. It's not a masterpiece but it is definitely entertaining. I feared for the safety of the all the actors AND of the audience members below the all the web swinging.

The last time I visited USA was at February of 2011 and I was really mad that I wouldn't get to see this. But the reviews sucked so I guess it would be a waste of time.

I don't understand people celebrating upon news like this. An crew of hard-working stage folks are losing their jobs - I doubt all of them will head to Vegas, if and when the production actually debuts there. I've been to a few Broadway shows, including this one, and the amount of effort put forth every night to put on this Spider-Man show is 100 times greater than nearly every other show out there. Yeah, the script is pretty lousy (although not entirely unfaithful to Marvel's version), and most of the songs are forgettable/awful, but the stunts are AMAZING. You do get to witness Spider-Man soaring above the crowd, just like in the comics, cartoons, and movies! The actors did a good job, especially Norman Osborn, who was clearly having a ball on stage.

SM:TOTD was surely a missed opportunity, though. A decent script with fewer/better songs (a couple are quite good - I loved the "Bouncing Off the Walls" number!) could've been the toast of B'way, as evidenced by the tickets sales of this mediocrity. Instead of ending the show altogether, I'd have preferred (yet another) script re-write, and a complete re-tooling of the show, leaving only the stunt-work intact. But it ain't my $75 mil, so...

Hopefully it will undergo some significant changes when it gets to Sin City...

Says it all

@Gusto you are creepy GET AWAY FROM ME!!! Even my grandpa is younger than you!

Im going in dec

If only it came to Australia, because I would have dished out a lot to see this. Can't critic unless you've seen it and experience such things before. Musicals are great, no matter what the production value is.
