Spidey Moments You Hope are Included

[Demothones Drake]

What Spider-Man moment do you pine for?
Not major events like "I wanna see Venom" etc, but the little things that can do so much to add to a characters interest.
Personally, I'm waiting to see Peter run out of web-fluid. It always increases drama in the comics, but in the movies Pete doesn't actually know how much he's got in him, how long it takes to restock, or if he even CAN run out.
I'd also dig a moment of Peter being casually Spidery, like he doesn't even realize how much his powers have infiltrated his being - like pacing across the floor and up the wall without effort.
I also have a sadistic urge to hear Kirsten say "Face it Tiger, you just hit the jackpot".

[sguy]

Eddie Brock trying to get a story that Pete is at. That would be cool. Spidey making a web shield to protect himself would be cool too.
There was scene I heard where he ran out of web fluid while swinging in the first movie. I think it'll be in the second.

[tman]

Funny quick witted sarcasm

As Spider-man I want it frequent as in the comics.

Some even as Peter Parker, more as a whisper. Toward JJ Jameson he could say something, then cover it when JJ asks what he said. Maybe that is why he is delivering pizzas.;)

Hey, D.D. -- has anyone here figured out the significance of your screen name yet? Heh heh. The Draco book and record set was always my favorite as a kid, even if Draco himself was a third-rate combination ripoff of the Lizard, Stegron, and Dragon-Man. ;)

Back on topic- I second your feelings for the "running out of web-fluid" scenario. Organics or not, it needs to happen. Also some mention that the webs disintegrate after a while, to explain why NYC doesn't look like a big spiderweb by this time.

I'd like to see Spidey stand straight up-and-down on a ceiling like he does in the comics.

Also, I want to see more examples of how smart Peter is. Aside from the interest in spiders and the honors awards at Pete's high school graduation, we didn't really get to experience Pete's genius in the first movie.

HOw can Spider-man stick to walls with his feet? I thought only his hands had that? I'm just wondering.........I haven't seen many that explained it.

[Demothones Drake]

Holy Moley! Nice...
Power records rocked...
As for Spidey's feet - they have to be sticky, otherwise they'd slip when he was walking up walls, or he'd have to use his hands to stay on which would be pretty awkward.
Didn't care for the hairy palms in the movie - they shoulda left it unexplained. I don't like the idea of those hairs growing long enough to poke through his gloves or the soles of his boots...do you?

[Tati79]

Lol I wanna see Spidey making fun of Jameson's mustache, or coming up with funny comments about Dr Ock, or something like that. Also I would like him to have more of his sense of humor, and that thing he has of cruising around the city when he isn't fighting lol and thinking about a girl.

Yep -- I had all the Marvel book-n-record sets when I was little.

Did you ever see the Man-Thing record set? It was pretty freaky for something intended for kids! This depressed circus clown goes out into the swamp and commits suicide by shooting himself in the head! Then his ghost comes back to haunt those who abused him in life. Scary stuff when I was a kid!

As far as the "hair-spikes" on Peter's hands and feet in the movie, I was annoyed by them at first, but they're easier to overlook than the organic webshooters, so I don't really care now.

I just figure that in addition to the "hairs" there could also be some "static adhesion" like explained in the comics.

Well how about this then. How can Spider-Man stick to the wall with that suit on???? The sticky thing is in his finger-tips, but with the suit on his hands aren't exactly touching the wall, they're covered by his clothing right...

[sguy]

In the comics I'm pretty sure he sticks by static electricity. That could be a better explanation than sticky hairs. Come to think of it,does that mean he has them all over? Spidey got a hairy back?

WHY In the vidoe game he shoots his webs up in the air do they form an umbrella or something?

[sguy]

and in the game when he's swinging from the weblines he shoots straight up outside.. what are they sticking to?

[spider-liam]

i just saw the perfect moment in the trailer. peter walking away from his costume in a dutbin in an alley. straight out of AMZ spider-man #50

[SpidermanFan14]

I personally am looking forward to more web swinging action, more drama such as when Spidey is knocked out and Harry is going to stab him (it's in the trailer, and it really adds suspense).
As for the web fluid topic, I personally think it's a little strange that Spiderman (in the cartoon and comic) only has a wrist thing that holds web cartridges that he has to reload at times. In the movie though, the web actually comes from inside his wrist as it would come from the spinarrets in a spider (naturally, not man made), so I don't think it can run out.
For some reason though, I just really like the suspensful parts like when the Hero (in this, it's Spidey of course) is temporarily defeated and weak. In the first movie for example, I really liked it when The Green Goblin (while in J.J. Jameson's office), knocks Spidey out with the gas from the "pumpkin," and then fives Spidey his offer.

[Redarachnid]

I really agree with the comment about Pete using is spidey powers casually.

I'd like to see him hanging out in his pyjamas...on the ceiling etc.

Also...they definitely need to show more of Peter's intellect and wit - as a civillian and as Spidey.

For Mary Jane, now that she's becoming an actress, I want to see less "girl next door" and more "super star." Even though MJ does have a public persona that is different to her private one...she is still, at her core, a very special, charismatic, bold woman. I wanna see more of that dazzling smile when she walks into a room and all that jazz.

Kirsten can definitely pull that off. The script in the last film, didn't really call for that aspect of her. I'm looking forward to seeing Mary Jane come into her own.

[Demothones Drake]

He HAS to run out eventually. The webbing is made of a physical material which is obviously stored in his body, probably concentrated in his forearms. Sure, the web strands are thin and strong, but they ARE drawn from his physical substance.
Would his forearms swell if he didn't shoot off some web fluid periodically? Or would he just stop producing it?
It's sort of like when a woman has a baby and begins lactating - her breasts get bigger from the milk they're producing, and they'll eventually leak if the baby doesn't nurse. Would that happen to Peter? Spontaneous web ejaculation? That would explain why his web shot off the first time in the cafeteria - he built up too much web and they squirted out to relieve the pressure!
And if you were to disect Peters arm would you find strange web glands in it?

[sguy]

I think you would see glands. Kinda creepy but there was a storyboard version where he pushed on his wrist and a red talon hose spinnerette came out in the first movie but it was taken out. As for the web he has to run out. Like Demothones said, his body makes it. Makes me think of the alien costume. That ran out of webbing too.

[SpidermanFan14]

I think he shouldn't run out. Like I said before, it's a natural substance from his wrist. It'd be like a spider running of out the web substance. I don't even know if that's possible. Maybe it's like snakes with venom-it never runs out no matter how much it's used.

Maybe there is a scene in the second movie where he acturly runs out of webs. Like the scene with the train would be a perfect part in the movie for him to run out of his fluit, at least for a while, because he must use a lot of web in that scene from what's been told in the description of the 12 minute fightscene that was shown in Las Vegas. He must use tons of web in the scene where he's desperatly trying to stop the train. Also in that scene they say that DocOc throws many people of the train where spidey makes many nests of web in which these people then wall in (and there by saving there lifes). That must take one hell of an energy source to pull off. They say that spidey is so exausted after saving those people and stopping the train, that he acturly needs help to get inside the train by the people on board, because he's so out of streangth. I think that the reason for his strength beeing so low that he's about to faint, is because he's used so much fluit in order to stop the train from ending up at the buttom of the sea. If that's the reason for him beeing so tirred in the movie then I think it's so cool.

[SpidermanFan14]

I'm confused because I haven't seen too much other Spidey stuff besides the movie, and a few cartoons...what is the alien costume? It's also in teh Ultimate Quiz, and I always have to guess on that question.

[sguy]

I heard there was scene in 2 with Hal Sparks where Spidey is taking an elevator. Maybe he's out of web? rather than go in a long story of the origin of the alien costume I found a link that should explain it better and if you still have questions ask away.

well actually, every part of peters body is adhesive, even his forehead and his back so he could stand up side down on the ceiling.

As for the moments.... i would like to see peter run into a scene with his shoes around his shoulder { showing that he was just wall climbing } and i would like to see Betty Brant arguing with one her boyfriends ovr te phone while typin.
Oh, seeing spidey use more acrobatics in his fihts would b nice too..;)

[Demothones Drake]

Spiders DO run out of webbing if the spin too much, and snakes and venomous spiders run out of venom after 1 or 2 bites. That's how people survive so many snake bites.
Basically once the fangs are sunk in they reflexivly pump out the venom, if the target is small enough they wind up with some venom left over. If it's a bigger one, they pump their venom sacs dry.
Shoes over the shoulder is also one of those elements from the comics I always enjoyed. I hope they work that in too.

I think the hairs are a good idea.......static electricity can only do so much with it's spiders not a human. Oh, also the hairs can come out through the fabric-they are tiny enough.

[Redarachnid]

I figure, over a good 8 hour sleep, he produces enough web fluid to sustain him a reasonably long time. So if Pete doesn't get any sleep for say 48 hours or so...he'll probably at some point run out of it. Temporarily of course.

[sguy]

Good call. If he's run ragged then maybe he'll run out. I also think he should run out because that would make for an interesting situation. If he doesn't run out then where's the peril?

[drseuss90]

I think the "hairs" make more sence than static electricity because static electricity can only hold so much weight. The way spiders stick to walls is very similar to the "hairs", actually they are more like small hooks, which is the reason i think it was in the movie to begin with.
To answer the question of this thread, I would like to see peter/spiderman do a little more reflecting about life (perhaps hear his thoughts). I would also like to see mj become more of the person she is in the comics. In the comics she is a strong willed person that keeps peter in line and focuse on the things that are important. I love everything that has to do with spiderman, but that was one of the biggest dissapointments in the first movie, which was to see mj portrayed as such a weak person.

[sguy]

I agree. I feel Mj wasn't really like the comics. Hardcore fans of the movie would disagree but really Pete never met her in school in the comics.

[NiceSpiderfan]

I'd like to see Peter Parker find his Spiderman suit from the garbage can in the alley and wash the bad odors out of it in the washer / dryer with "color-safe" detergent before he fights Dr.Ock....:D :eek:

[sguy]

That would be a funny scene. If he doesn't wash it and Ock smells him it might be funnier.:)

Speaking of clothes why doesn't he carry them sepearate not wear them under his regual ones? Besides time why have them under. If you get the regualar clothes ripped woundn't it show his SM clothes underneath? I think they should use one of theold comics one with him in te gym. Since I am an un published author- hoping to be- I'd have my characters carry them sepearte because of this reason.

[NiceSpiderfan]

What's Spiderman's suit made out of? If its lycra or spandex ,he'll have to use "color-safe woolite" from that is the for the most delicate fabrics...

[sguy]

In Amazing 39,when Norman blasted Peter with pumpkin bombs it was really cool cause he costume was showing through his ripped clothes. Plus It might have been a more artistic cool visual with the clothes underneath. Just my opinion...

[Webrina1]

What's with guys and tights? They should have JJJ make that commet. Oh, I think it's a mixture of spandex, and leather I'lm not sure.

[NiceSpiderfan]

I can't imagine Spiderman wearing leather for his suit !:o :\ :eek: :eek:

[sguy]

In the comics,the suit was made in his room. Aside from the raised webbing (where that come from?) I think it's lycra.

[NiceSpiderfan]

Peter Parker goes to the store on his motor bike to fetch a bottle of Woolite fabric detergent to keep his Spiderman suit "brite and soft".... LOL!:D :D

[sguy]

LOL Wait..can he wash it? I mean wouldn't the webbing fall off? Maybe it's just me but I like the idea of the webbing not raised. He might have to dry clean it. Man,that washer would be a mess.

[NiceSpiderfan]

If he takes his suit to the dry cleaners, the employees who work there will know his secret. He could just go to the store and buy one of those dry-cleaning kits and dry clean it in the basement dryer..:confused: :o :eek: Where is the webbing on his suit?

[sguy]

If he goes to the dry cleaners he could leave his mask on. That would be funny. The lines on his suit are dubbed "webbing." In the comics,they look drawn on giving it more of a home made look.

[Demothones Drake]

Arrrggghhhh! YES!
In the comics I dig when he spins one of those web pouches to store his clothes in and has it on his back.
Or even instead of him running through the alley ripping off his duds and leaving them all behind (doesn't that get expensive? And I don't see any wallet-bulge on the butt of his Spider-Suit so it's obviously left behind) he should web them high up to a wall like in the comics. THAT'S a Spidey-ism - something he's ALWAYS done throughout the comics.

[Webrina1]

Hmm that would be cool to see.

[sguy]

Lycra is like polyester very stretchy and tight to the skin. There should be a scene like that with him webbing his clothes or at least picking them up. Peter helps a lot of homeless people everytime he runs down the alleys.;)

[NiceSpiderfan]

How does he help the homeless people? :o :confused: Do they steal his clothes every times he goes to the alley to change into his Spiderman suit?

[NiceSpiderfan]

[sguy]

LOL Yeah! If he leaves his clothes then they can take em!

[NiceSpiderfan]

Peter: Hey, what happened to my sweatshirt I left in the trash can?
Homeless Guy: Aren't you Spiderman ?

Peter: If I tell you my secret, will you please give back my sweatshirt!
HomelessGuy: Buy me a sandwich first, and I'll give you back the


sweatshirt and never tell anyone about your real indentity...

[sguy]

or....Peter:Ok I'm back but I could only get half a sandwich.
Homeless guy: No problem. Here's half your clothes.
Peter:(sigh) Fine. ::walks away,stops::
You kept my socks!?

[Webrina1]

How can a freakin' high schooler make his own custume? HMMMM with my own character at my house I have her in a pitiful out fit. HOW? Did he go to JoANN fabrics or something? That's sad superheroes could be considered *** if they did that.

[sguy]

Good point. Not only that but how did Peter make the suit in the movie? When the suit ripped in the comics he fixed it. The suit is cool in the movie but the logistics are lame. He can't s****e two pennies together..BUT he can make his costume. He must have raided Aunt May's knitting bins.

[NiceSpiderfan]

He told Aunt May to make him a "spandex suit with a hood so he can ride his motor bike at night in secret!;) :o

[spiderkrissser]

I'm gonna laugh my A'SS off, if the following happens in the movie!

Pete throws away his costume. Some guy finds the costume and runs around town in it acting crazy. Before he knows it, DocOc is there and knocks him out, brings him to Harry, where he then rips of the mask. To think of all the thrills people have gotten from the teaser where Harry is right about to rip off that mask "Ooh I can't wait to see this, will it really be Pete behind that mask?". The scene raises a lot of interesting theories, but I'll be down on the floor screaming if what happens is what I've said above.

Come to think of it, that's not such a bad thoery. I remember when I heard that Stan Lee's cameo apearence includes a sentence like "Look! Spider-Man just stole that kids pizza", I thought it was so lame and cheasy. But if it's simply some crazy new-yorker who's found the suit, puts it on and goes around town in it acting crazy, then I could go along with it.

You guys might find this theory stupid.... But Spider-Man stealing a kids pizza (for what ever reason!) is more stupid! It's cheasy and no one would take it seriously.

according to james acheson, its a special type of lycra used by dancers which stretches in all directions it order to completely cover the body without creases or anything. it kind of wraps around the muscles, making them more defined. theres also a mesh print on there with light and dark highlights to make spidey look more muscular, lol, its not leather webrina.

Seriously dude, trust me, I'm not the type of person who finds it cool to hear something others have said and then pawn it off as my own afterwards, really. I've said this ones before six months ago in this forum also. Really I didn't know somebody's said that on the HYPE. And if it was true, I wouldn't have any troubles by admitting it... I thought it was a no brainer from the start, I'm more like releaved that I finaly hear I'm not the only one who's got that thought.

[Demothones Drake]

Actually, in the early days of Amazing Spider-Man Flash Thompson put on a Spider-Man costume and was captured by a villian.
Possibly COULD happen, but God would that be cheesy. Maybe Harry DOES pull the mask off, and is so stunned by learning Spider-Man's identity he doesn't know what to do. Before Peter wakes up he has Ock dump him somewhere so Peter has no idea Harry knows his secret. This way Harry could plot behind Peter's back with him being completely unaware. If it took place before the cafe scene it would explain why Ock is targeting Mary Jane and Peter.

[casualspidey]

for those of u wondering spiderman sticks with ne part of his body his back, feet, and hands and maybe the kness, its not really explained in the comics..butin a issue of spiderman..PP thoerized that he has some sort of bio magnetic ability to manipulate the molecules on walls so that he can stick too thats why he stick thru the costume in the comics(sorta like spideygurl sticking ability)...he does not have hairs... and sam was stupid for introducing that in the movie..they always try to make things so scientific..PP inthe movie should have theorized that himself..but neways too my question does spiderman has some sort of healing factor?..im not talking about wolverine but ive heard from comic fans that he does its a lil more enhanced then the avergae human

[Webrina1]

I like movies that make me jump........not scary but surprising......like la la la some dude walking the streets then bomb Ock's tentacle grabs 'em! TADAH.

[sguy]

You mean like when Norman has his quick flashback after he kills the army?

[NiceSpiderfan]

I love to be spooked when the Goblin smashes in to Aunt May's house while she's praying to herself! :D

[Webrina1]

yeah, stuff like that! I want to see some quiet scenes with Spiderman on a building when all the birds scatter and a silvery tentactle appears.

It IS static. One time Electro figured it out, and touched the wall he was sticking to. Even though Spidey was a good...20 stories from the ground,he just...stopped sticking. Fell right off the wall. Then Electro nailed him. Ouch!

What would I like to see?

Spider-tracers.

And the Spider-light on his belt, to inspire fear in the hearts of evil-doers. Ha ha.

[mr.excellent]

Said before, and it's gonna be said again. I am tired of seeing spidey just beat the guy and stop once he's down. Just once, I'd like to see him go ballistic on Ock. I saw Hellboy today, and it's true. No spidey trailor there. I didn't even know that fifty first dates was still in theaters. Anyways, that idea about spidey casually walking up a wall was good. He should throw a car, he's done it a couple of times in the comics.
