Jon Peters, one of the producers, had been trying to shoehorn a giant spider into a movie for quite some time. It wasn’t that he thought it particularly needed to be in Wild, Wild West. He just wanted one, so he tried to get it written into every movie he was involved with until he finally succeeded. Hearing that really helped me understand the rest of that movie.
Oh yeah. He was desperate to get that big ol robot spider in the never filmed Tim Burton Superman movie starring Nicholas Cage too. Weird spider fetish ya got there Jon Peters
Wild Wild West was a good movie, IMO it was just ahead of its time.
It was a reprisal of a tv show from the ‘60s. Maybe after its time?
GIANT MECHANICAL SPIDER.
That is all.
