man-spider and "the Fly"
spider-mans organic reminded me of the movie "the fly" the new one with the guy from jarrasic park in it. A good example is the disturbing and nastly powers the fly had like he could vomit acid well organics are just as nasty

The character of Seth Brundle was played by the delectable Jeff Goldblum--undeniably yummy 20 years ago, and still worth mentioning. It was a great story. I loved the "Seth Brundle museum of Natural History" which was his medicine cabinet--where he temporarily housed everything that fell off and/or out of his body. Very humorous.
Not if we turn it into a "how cool was the FLY remake" thread.
So Cronenberg finally found the right movie for his "your flesh will betray you" mantra and DAMN what a great movie. Goldbloom - what inspired casting agent pitched him? It didn't hurt that He and Geena Davis were getting all sweaty in real life - it made the scenes of them together all the more believable.
A downright creepy horror movie that didn't rely on buckets of gore and people jumping out of shadows.
True, the movie wasn't too bad. But the sequel sucked !
Another movie, not a Carpenter-movie, who also has (a bit) this "your flesh will betray you" thing, is Hellraiser. I thought that movie was scarier than The Fly (which was also scary). Pinhead was a cool character but I wouldn't want to meet him.
Btw, is this going to get moved ? It's not exactly Spider-Man we're talking about...

Dark Vengeance shame on you for making another Man-Spider thread we already have like five there you can discuss anything about Man-Spider you want to this was very uneccessary

Thats what I have heard from many others I have spoken to over the years Vengence.I have heard from many people both online and in real life how the organics remind them of the movie THE FLY because just like THE FLY,organics are as nasty and disturbing as the flys vomit spit is.
So I was right, this is an "I hate the organic webshooters"-thread in disguise.
Yawn...

Well, the Fly is a kind of science-fiction kinda comic book movie isn't it? Same thing as Spider-Man I guess, what's the problem in making the comparison?
When did Man-Spider first appear in the comic books? I'm not THAT much of geek to know the specifics, but I'm just guessing it was the 80's, around the time the movie came out. I bet Stan Lee (or whoever wrote the comics at the time) saw the Fly and thought "Hey, I wonder what would happen if I did something like that with Spider-Man?"
