You have to learn to get used to the people calling it Man-Spider, they're being extremely ignorant in blatantly ignoring the title and trying to make it seem as if they matter. When they don't.
Marvel are riding a pretty untouchable wave after the blockbusters that were the Spider-Man movies, adored by newbies and comic fans alike. A few malcontents on this forum probably aren't making Joe Quesada and Stan Lee lose any sleep.
Peter didn't make his costume. He got it for free from a costum-made tailor, seriously. The Flying Dutchman was praising him because he beat up Bone-Saw, and he told him his brother was a tailor and would do his costume for free.
I find it much more believable for a person to get superpowers then to create webshooters.
Besides, how do you know a person can't get spider-like powers from getting bitten by a genetically altered super-spider?

boy you have a short term memory.I already said this earlier on this thread but looks like I got to repeat it again since your memory is short.That old lame argument that its better because they made so much money at the box office is so lame its laughable.the man-spider movies made so much money at the box office simply because spidey is an extremely popular character it did not matter how horrible the movies really were.them and the batman movies only made so much money at the box office because of the popularity of them.itwas mostly kids that got their parents to take the family back to the cinemas over and over again to make it so much money,not because the family wanted to.
I asked many familys both times when batman and the manspider movies came out if they saw the movies and they said yes they did several times only because their kids wanted them to see it.Its pretty safe to say that went on around the country as well.also come on,there are many more theaters today than there were back in 1978 and 1981 and ticket prices are a LOT higher so you cant say it made more money when they were made in such different times when inflation has come into hand. according to that laughable logic as I said earlier,by THAT LOGIC empire strikes back was not anywhere near as good a movie and the phantom menace is the best star wars movie ever even though many people hated the phantom menace. please enopugh with that laughable and lame logic that the manspider movies are better because of sales at the box office.that old argument has been shot down countless of times.they only made so much money at the box office because of the extreme popularity of the character.superman and batman are more well known than spiderman,but they are not near as popular.proof is in the pudding,spidey has his own comicstrip in national newspapers,batman and superman dont so spidey is obviously more popular with people even though supes and bats are more well known.the popularity of the character made spidey so much money at the box office.simple as that.
Second, If for you a movie based in a comic book with a guy with the powers of a spider and another guy getting superhuman strenght and flying in a gilder isnt a fantasy movie, and a guy with superhuman powers by the bite of a spider is more believle than a guy creating a web fluid, surely we havent nothing to discuss about.

utter bullshit... the films were critically and publically acclaimed by fans and newbs alike... we've had this argument before... just because they weren't perfect movies you whine and complain constantly... grow the f*ck up...
claiming people saw the movie purely on his popularity is ridiculous, a lot of people read revews, thats why we have critics, they can make or break a lot of movies...
and guess what, some people actually enjoyed these movies because... wait for it... they were well made comic nook adaptations...
but seriously, I think some of you who don't like the spidey movies only hate it because he doesn't have webshooters. it isn't that big of a deal. they needed to make some alterations so that they could make the movie more believable. because people who've never read the comics before wouldn't understand how peter created the webshooters and figured out how to make web fluid when scientists are still trying to figure out what spider webs are made out of. plus, where would he get the chemicals without paying for it. so really, they had no other choice but to make them organic for the movies. so don't make such a big deal out of it, people! Superman's a good movie, but it still gets pretty boring. The only good Batman so far was the first one, and that one's old. (Though i hope this new batman coming up will be good.) Spider-Man films is probably the best superhero movies so far.
again the ONLY reason the manspider movies made so much money is because spidey is an extremely popular character,much more than batman and superman.thats why unlike them,he has his own comicstrip in national newspapers.the extreme popularity of his character is what made the movie so much money,nothing else.NOW you can say end of story dami wilson.
oh god not this old lame argument AGAIN.. Please we have pointed it out umpteen times on this thread that it was a LOT more than just organics that ruined the film and make it about the worst comicbook film ever.If you would bother to read the previous posts you would see that.according to THAT logic there never should have been a spiderman movie made because the whole thing of spiderman is unbeieveable and there are many things in that movie that are far more unbelieveable than that,plus a guy getting bit by a spider and gaining all those powers he gets is every bit as unbelieveable as what your saying. for the umpteenth time,he had the instinctive knowledge from the spiderbite to instintively know how to make thw webbing.he can easily get the chemicals from doc connors at the college.again there hasnt been a good batman movie made yet-he is o-4 and spiderman is o-2. its a HUGE deal for the die hard spidey fans because we want to see the character of spiderman on the screen NOT manspider which is who we are stuck with.
