WATCH Hilarious 'Spider-Pintman' spoof introduces Dublin version of superhero

Dublin comedian Tony Cantwell has done it again with a hilarious Spider-Man parody called 'Spider-Pintman' as the brand new Spider-Man movie No Way Home lands in Irish cinemas.

We've all had drunk lads appearing at our table and inviting themselves into our personal space for chats about politics and the meaning of life, but few of us can say we've ever had someone do it in a Spider-Man costume.

The video shows Tony as the Spider-Pintman getting cosy with an unsuspecting pub-goer. Tony starts by asking the nervous individual if he's from America.

He says: "They've big ol' buildings there in America. Great things to swing around [There is] f*** all here.

"Only so many times you can do a lap of Liberty Hall."

The comedian goes on to crack a series of hilarious jokes and references after that, mentioning his own version of Spider-Man villain Green Goblin, 'Greener'.

He says: "Few lads you need to watch out for. Fella goes by the name of Greener Goblin. He's actually me mate Harry's da. He smoked some smokes that were so toxic he lost it. Started f****** pumpkins at kids. We were like "Greener, stop it""

Referencing another popular Spider-Man villain, Electro, Tony jokes: "Another fella you need to watch out for goes by the name of Sparks. Failed apprentice in a FAS programme, tried to plug two USBs together, burnt the kip to the ground."

He then asks the poor lad at the table if he'd like to see a few acrobatics before the video cuts to Spider-Pintman walking around the pub making his own sound effects with pint in hand.

In another gas Marvel reference, Tony says while in a Spider-Man pose on a bar stool: "Tony Stark, he's a clown. Wad of cash. Yeah I could do that if I had the funding. What Am I gonna do, get onto the Art Council?"
