whats so "high tech" about the costume? I know alot of highschool students that could recreate that costume. It wasn't bullet proof.... it didn't do anything special... it just hid his identity... thats a pretty lame argument. The hole character is not his web shooters it is he got bit by a radioactive spider... which in this case wasn't even radioactive it was genetically altered... which makes more since... Peter gets bit by a spider and gets super strength/agility a spidey since and organic web shooters...... or Peter gets bit and gets Super strength/agility a spidey since and the ability to all of the sudden design a high tech device to shoot webs so he can be more spiderlike?
I don't know about you, but the Mechanical webshooters Dumb and Dumber are so fond of sound even more high tech than his Spider-man costume. This just shows you how stupid these two are and how much unlogic they utilize.

I guess spandex and rubber have high tech qualities... maybe they should tell the Military so we can ditch those cotton and polyester blends in favor of a "high tech" spandex to stop bullets from enemy guns better....
Well, if the naysayers had their say, and I'm not mentioning any names here *ahem*, the military would be clad in spandex and riding around on gliders if you get my drift.
First of all,if you dont find the costume so high tech, i wonder that movie have you seen, because it wasnt man spider. In man spider, the costume was so high tech, with those lents in his eyes and all, hat a poor guy like peter couldnt create for himself. So , if by your absurd logic, peter isnt enough intelligent and enough rich to create the web fluid, he isnt enough intelligent and enough rich to create the hig tech costume too.
And for that people called venom idiot for life, ego fum papa( as knowed as drskata or drskatroll) and godzilla2000( as knowed as croughing power ranger hidden man spider), they are only part of the man spider gang from the superherohype boards, a group of nazis and fascists who are following us to all the forums and insulting us only for critizing that movie. Dont take notice on what they are posting, is always the same inflamatory garbage: lies, insults, personal ofenses , silliness and unlogic.

serriously that costume could easily be produced by any high school student. The eyes wouldn't be very hard at all to duplicate. We are not talking Quantum Physics here..... I don't know why you can't seem to understand the costume is not high tech. In fact I know a kid that made an exact replica of the costume worn by the actor. It cost him just under $200 with all of the fabric and supplies. He finished it in about 4 months time. however he couldn't come up with a device to shoot webs from his wrists.
The costume could've easily been made within a few weeks (he was on summer break) for under $500 (graduation money and the $100 from the wrestling match). All he would need is fabric, a little bit of liquid latex or fabric glue, thread, sewing equipment, mirrored lenses, a sander with which to shape the lenses, and Fun Foam to stick them on the mask. The webshooters on the other hand, would cost (assuming he could invent them) well over $1000 for the custom-cut metal pieces, at least $50 for the other hardware components (springs, tubes, containers for the cartridges, etc.), and the cost of whatever insane amount of chemicals he would need.

This kicks so much ass having other people on my side. This Man-Spider crap is bull, but no matter what you say to them they fail to see that what they are saying makes no sense.

]I'm sure someone's said this already, but... isn't this whole 'argument' rather pointless? It seems that no one's opinions are bound to change any time soon.
As for the "purists"... you should be happy that there's a movie at all, regardless of how many differences there are. (unless they're really ridiculous, and sorry, but him not making his own web-shooters isn't such a big problem... they could have done something really stupid, like in Daredevil...) It draws in new people who will think, 'hey, the movie's cool, I think I'll read the comics!'
But, I doubt this post will make any difference, but I figured I might as well say something.
What change did they make in Daredevil that was so stupid, out of curiosity?

Against most other's opinions I thought Daredevil kicked some ass. I really did enjoy the movie quite allot. I watched it again today and I really do think it's badass.
And along the lines of the other argument, I know no one's opinion wioll change, I just think that people should look and see how much money the movie made, and how many people did enjoy it. They obviously must have done something right to warrent so many people seeing it.

no it is impossible to change someones mind around here. i think dare devil was disliked becuase kingpin went down real quick, but he should have...and hes white. i got the DVD i enjoyed the movie
Well, I don't know if you frequent the Spider-man Hype Forums at Superhero hype at all, but with Mr. Parker and bakerboy, they've been doing this same spiel since before the first Spider-man movie was released. These two are like a broken record if you know what I mean. Or more appropriate for this day and age, a scratched up, skipping CD.
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls...I have been dealing with these two for 3 years...you guys should check ou the Superhero hype board...and on behalf of SHH, let me apologize for these two.
Mr.Parker - The movie was changed, it's 2 years later...get over it. If you don't like it, fine. Don't tell other people they shouldn't.
Bakerboy - Michelle Pfeiffer is old, ugly, and a bad actress. (get ready for some fireworks)
its NOT crap that IS who he is.Your living in denial just like these other 3 pests who followed me over here to this site.Those 3 got no logic,they talk to me expecting me to read what they say when I stopped reading anything they said to me a long time ago.Its sad how just like them,you cant distinguish spider-man from man-spider.I'm glad to see at least MSFIT has logic and common sense and knows that was manspider on the screen.No matter what we say to you,that this was a phony neatured version of hollywoods and the character is MAN-SPIDER,just like them,YOU fail to see what you manspider fans are saying makes no sense no matter what we say to YOU.Like I said,at least MSFIT has logic and knows what I am talking about.
and by the way MATT,I still to this day complain how they screwed up the batman movies yet I dont hear you saying anything about me criticising those films all the time like I do 15 years later after the first one was made.

I am more than able to distinguish Spider-Man from Man-Spider. Are you? I know, proably as well as anyone else, who the character of Spider-Man is, and that's who was in the movie. I have always been more focused on Spidey as a character rather than his powers. That was Spider-Man on the screen. If all you have to back up your Man-Spider theory is the organic shooters, you have nothing. they change one thing about him and it makes him a character who was the opposite of who Spider-Man is? Doesn't work that way.
Give me more to go on. I am more than willing to join your side, but you have given me nothing that proves you are right, or that you even know what you are talking about. Convince me that there are more reasons than the web shooters, that there are more things that make him Man-Spider.
