View Full Version : organic versus the proper mechanical webshooters

I'm new, so bear with me about the question: is Raimi still pursuing his arrogant choice of the webbing squirting out of Parker's wrists instead of the proper MECHANICAL webshooters? Raimi's "If Dupont couldn't develop this miracle fluid, how could a kid?" is SO weak because:
1) It's comic book canon. That's the way it is, period. Just like how everyone in Gotham City is too stupid to figure out that it's Bruce Wayne under the cowl--you just go with it.
2) If Raimi keeps it organic because that seems more "real" to him, does that mean he'll show Parker gobbling tons of food so to replenish his new web spinning organs? Answer: no, which means he'll be a hypocrite.
Obviously this has me torqued. Doesn't it bug any other Spidey fans out there?

It pisses me off to no end, but it's an old topic. And for them most part, we're learning to deal with it.

This topic is so old there is nothing you can do about it let this topic rest.All you have to do is picture spidey with mechanical webshooters when he has the suit on and when its off just don't look at the screen or just think of it as an injured wound with pus LOL.

Well as you said it is a comic book. So I guess if Peter Parker can have four abilities of a spider, why not all five then. He is "spider-man" after all.

Spidey has always had organic web shooter from what I have seen he has always had the same shooters nothing else and from what i believe they were organic. remember when Doc Ock had the ray guy that cut through inorganic material and not through organicspidey's web were not cut by it. end of story.

Sorry guy but with someone who owns an original issue one of Spidey then I have to tell you that he built the webshooters himself, hence all the hassle with the canister replacements whenever he runs out....so no he hasn't always had an organic web system

It would be so hilarious especially if it comes out just like a spider.

I think that the movie will be much more interesting if given sort a post-tarantino/modern
treatment and less of a fantsy style flick, so in that respect I have to say that to me, organic webbing is a logical choice that is much more realistic (and cool) than Peter constructing the shooters

Correct me if 'm wrong, but if Spidey had true organic web spinning/shootng ability shouldnt it come out of his ***?
Now that would be worth the tiket price alone. And would put a whole new spin on my choice of user name. Yuck!

hey everyone. i just found out today that in the movie spiderman will be shooting webbing out of his wrists. well....dang. you know it. but that is all we can do. we are going to have to deal. it's just a movie. it's for our entertainment value. so just sit back and enjoy it. i'm not trying to disagree with anyone or talk down to anyone. just giving my opinion like everyone else.
sincerily,

Didn't Carnage and/or Venom have organic web shooters? Why is it such a stretch to think that Peter can't do the same thing? I think it's only an issue if you're considering the original storyline...

I'm no Steve Irwin, but if spiderman were to have "organic" webbin wouldn't it come from his abdomen? That's where it comes from in every spider i've ever seen. And also I don't know about Carnage, but did Venom use web? I thought the suit "stretched". I could be wrong and probably am anyway. Alrighty, later.

OK, so if the organic webshooters work from the audience, they could change it easily.
Just have Peter take a sample of the webs and store it away and after the whole Man-Spider thing in the sequel, he could analyze it and create it synthetically via his big scientific brainy-brain. Then all he needs is to make the web shooters.
No muss, no fuss.

i have a simple question: who the hell cares? if the movie's good, it won't matter; if the movie blows, it'll be due to something besides the utterly inane, unimportantmatter of where the ****ed web comes from. dear god almighty, either way, it's a means to an end! i don't care about how he gets the web; either he's a fricking genius or he has one more trait. what does it matter? trivial details like these are only thought of by people afraid of the larger question: do the film-makers think of their film in terms of box-office revenue or in terms of the story they want to tell. in the end, i pray i won't be thinking about where the web comes from, because i should be thinking about the characters.
and if you're so pissed off with how he's treating it, make your own god**** movie.

he doesn't have organics anymore! watch the new trailer, or better yet, look at this screen cap from the trailer
http://www.spidermanhype.com/cgi-bin/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=The_Movie/Trailer&image=trailer50.jpg&img=45&tt= and if he does have organics, well **** me, im turning blue,

No, he still has organics but he uses a mechanical thingy to aim the webbing and what he wants to. And for those of you who keep thinking that Sam is the only reason that organics are still around, you are wrong, organics were always a part of the script even when Cameron wrote it and Sam is not the only person who wanted organics, may I remind you that Sony pictures has the last say in all matters having to do with Spider-Man so if your going to blame anyone blame Sony, cause even if Sam did want mechanicals he probably wouldn't have gotten them anyway.

Have fun!!

shadowspyderx, your the only fool here. Well, mabye a few others. But anyway, i dunno how many times this has been said, but i'll say it again for you. The 'props' you've seen are to control the organic webbing. This is fact!

Well scitt21,
I am and have been a huge fan of the webslinger and I must agree with you. The whole basis in the comic was to express how uncanningly smart Peter was and how he used that brilliant intelligence in battle! I always loved it when he was fighting G.G or the Vulture, or any villian for that matter,..and suddenly ran out of fluid and the most horrible time! Then having to put a pause on the fight to grab another cartridge! That suspense was awesome! I say absolutely,....positively,....NO..to the organic shooters!
Good call man. 'Nuff said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can understand that some of you people are pretty pissed by the organic webshooters thing. I know I was. But in a review I read, the writer says that Spidey does some pretty complex weaving with his webbing, something he wouldn't be able to do with mechanical web shooters.

It makes sense for him 2 have organic webshooters
The spiderman in 2099a.d. comic had organic ones
it is still a tight movie
