This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''''((lang|tr|3 Dev Adam))''''' (translated as '''''Three Giant Men''''', sometimes ''Captain America and Santo vs. Spider-Man''; Üç Dev Adam) is a 1973 Turkish [[superhero film]], directed by T. Fikret Uçak and written by Doğan Tamer, based on characters created by [[Steve Ditko]], [[Jack Kirby]], [[Stan Lee]], [[Joe Simon]] and [[Rodolfo Guzmán Huerta]], featuring Aytekin Akkaya as [[Captain America]] and [[Yavuz Selekman]] as [[El Santo|Santo]] called to Istanbul on a special mission to stop the villainous [[Spider-Man]] and his criminal gang.

The film, which went on nationwide general release across the country on ((start date|1973|11|1)), was completely unauthorized by the copyright owners of the characters depicted. The film was popular and thus spawned other rip-offs of other major Hollywood productions.<ref>((Cite web|url=http://sinematikyesilcam.com/2013/05/fantastik-turk-sinemasi-3-dev-adam-1973-2/|title=Fantastik Türk Sineması - 3 Dev Adam (1973 Three Giant Men)|date=February 1, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200201173105/http://sinematikyesilcam.com/2013/05/fantastik-turk-sinemasi-3-dev-adam-1973-2/|archive-date=2020-02-01))</ref>((Citation needed|date=November 2023))

==Plot==
The story unfolds in [[Istanbul]], where a violent criminal organization, led by Spider-Man, emerges in the city, flooding it with counterfeit United States dollars. In a shocking act, they mutilate a woman's face using a boat propeller. Responding to the crisis, a small task force, comprising Captain America, Santo, and Captain America's girlfriend, Julia, arrives to assist the local police in halting Spider-Man and his gang.

Julia, who successfully infiltrates Spider-Man's hideout, gets captured and transported to a remote location. Despite the perilous situation, she manages to send an [[SOS]] signal to Captain America. Taking swift action, Captain America rescues Julia, but Spider-Man eludes capture. Simultaneously, Mexico's national wrestler and superhero, Santo, infiltrates the counterfeit operation disguised as a [[dojo]]. After being captured briefly, Santo escapes, carrying incriminating evidence.

Captain America and Santo embark on a mission to raid a crucial hideout central to the counterfeit operation, successfully shutting it down. However, Spider-Man seizes the opportunity to commit further crimes, including killing a couple, stealing a statue, and fleeing the scene. Subsequently, another intense confrontation between the heroes and Spider-Man unfolds, revealing the shocking ability of Spider-Man to spawn duplicates of himself upon death.

In an attempt to apprehend Spider-Man, Captain America and Santo go undercover in a nightclub, leading to a fierce confrontation with Spider-Man's gang. Overwhelmed, the heroes are captured and taken to Spider-Man's hideout. Displaying clever tactics, Captain America and Santo feign infighting, confusing their captors and enabling their escape. They eliminate most of the gang members, but Spider-Man arrives with his girlfriend.

During the ensuing chaos, Spider-Man's girlfriend is tragically struck by a stray shot from one of his henchmen. Spider-Man flees, with Captain America in relentless pursuit. After a grueling battle, Captain America seemingly defeats Spider-Man, only to be confronted by yet another Spider-Man. The fight intensifies until each Spider-Man is ultimately defeated.

As the heroes prepare to depart Istanbul, Captain America, driven by suspicion, notices a figure resembling Spider-Man in the back of a taxi. Reacting impulsively, he runs to the taxi, reaches imside and unmasks the person, only to discover it is a young boy wearing a red wrestling mask—a surprising and poignant twist to conclude the tale.

==Cast==
* [[Yavuz Selekman]] as [[El Santo|Santo]]. The primary difference between this version of El Santo and the original is that the character in the film wears a wrestling mask only briefly, whereas the real-life Santo was never seen in public without one. Santo was famous during the '60s, and he was very well known in [[Turkey]].
* Aytekin Akkaya as [[Captain America]]. He doesn't have his shield and his mask lacks the wings by the sides of his head.
* Tevfik Şen as [[Spider-Man]]. He is depicted as a villain, with none of his abilities from the comics. His only superpower here is the ability to come back unharmed from death multiple times, sometimes interpreted as making clones of himself. 
* Doğan Tamer as Inspector Orhan
* Deniz Erkanat as Julia, Captain America's girlfriend and superhero partner.
* Mine Sun as Nadya, Spider-Man's girlfriend and partner in crime.
* Altan Günbay as Nightclub Owner
* Ersun Kazançel as Bartender
* Osman Han as Bouncer
* Ali Ekdal as Commissioner
* Nilgün Ceylan	as Janet
* İhsan Baysal as Bouncer
* Mehmet Yağmur as Spider-Man's henchman
