Spider-Man: The New Animated Series in 3gp/mp4
The CGI version of Marvel's popular superhero features the voice talents of Neil Patrick Harris as Peter Parker/Spider-Man, Lisa Loeb as Mary Jane, and Ian Ziering as Harry Osborn. Assuming this series fits into the movie continuity, it takes place sometime after the first, but before the second (as Norman Osborn is dead). Here, Peter has graduated from high school and is attending Empire State University (although in the films he attends Columbia University). Still burdened with the desire to use his incredible, spider bite-derived powers to do good, he finds it hard balancing his responsibilities of being a superhero with schoolwork and his romance with Mary Jane Watson. Almost in all of this series, Harry craves for revenge on Spider-Man. But in the When Sparks Fly episode, Harry intends to help Spider-Man trap Electro.
Peter Parker was originally supposed to wear baggier clothes to hide his superhero musculature, but cost-effective difficulties with the CG format prevented folds from being put into his everyday attire. As a result, Peter's street clothes were redesigned to be close-fitting and contemporary, while still managing to hide his physique (and the costume he wore under his duds) as Spider-Man.
Aunt May does not appear in this series (except for a photograph in Peter's bedroom), because MTV executives feared that the appearance of any old people would deter their target youth audience from watching. By contrast, she made several prominent appearances in the first animated series and was a regular character on NBC's Spider-Man and Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends in the 1980s, and Spider-Man: The Animated Series on Fox Television.
The series employed a device which became a calling card for the show, where Peter Parker could apparently move so fast as to almost instantly change into his costume at will. Some of these scenes were visually creative. The police interrogation room sequence from "Law of the Jungle" is frequently cited as one of the best, with Peter shedding his clothes and suiting up as Spider-Man in a series of frozen, strobe light images as the emergency power struggles to kick in. However, other "quick changes" were downright baffling. As he runs down an alley to change in "Mind Games, Part 2," Peter's outer clothes literally morph into his costume in a burst of light. The first episode of the 1967 Spider-Man cartoon, "The Power of Doctor Octopus," featured the fastest change into costume before this series.
Every cellphone in the series is a bar style from Sony Ericsson.

3GP is a simplified version of the MPEG-4 Part 14 (MP4) container format, designed to decrease storage and bandwidth requirements in order to accommodate mobile phones. It stores video streams as MPEG-4 Part 2 or H.263 or MPEG-4 Part 10 (AVC/H.264), and audio streams as AMR-NB, AMR-WB, AMR-WB+, AAC-LC or HE-AAC. A 3GP file is always big-endian, storing and transferring the most significant bytes first. It also contains descriptions of image sizes and bitrate. There are two different standards for this format: 3GPP (for GSM-based Phones, may have filename extension .3gp) 3GPP2 (for CDMA-based Phones, may have filename extension .3g2) Both are based on MPEG-4 and H.263 video, and AAC or AMR audio. When transferred to a computer, 3GP movies can be viewed on Linux, Mac, and Windows platforms with programs such as MPlayer, VLC media player, RealPlayer, QuickTime, GOM Player and Media Player Classic.

Blogging: Gunning for More Words
Hi unwary visitor(s) to my blog! =) Is it wary or weary?? Uhmm..whatever. I'll be making some uhmm..minor changes to these pages soon...coz apparently some Blog-for-Cash sites don't find enough "words" to merit any reason for revenue. So instead of just posting those uhmmm "useful" links that you guys (and gals) like to "find and read"...I may have to post and append some "reviews and rants" and stuff to make it more "revenue-generating"...I know, I know...I've sold out..but hey it takes a lot of my "time and effort" to do stuff you know...so any pennies my way would be great...nothing like moolah to motivate...
And since most of you (I know) have seem to love Warren Ellis' Black Summer below..what's not to like right?? With all that blood and gore and killing....speaking of which...here's another ridiculous survey segue that's as bloody...and a bit ridiculous...
