    Now that the Spider-Man movies are being rebooted, do you think Spidey should wear his web shooters or should he keep the organic webbing.  In my opinion, I think Spidey should not have web shooters,because it would take to long to explain how he made them and  how they work  I  also don't want to hear"I'm out of webbing" line. What do you think, should our hero have web shooters or should he keep the organic webbing.

    Could care less.
     
    On the PRO webshooter side, its been said that Parker's a genius, so it'd be easy to make.
     
    On the ANTI, its like.... he's a high school student. Come on.

    Organic makes as little sense as web shooters.I just think the shooters should be in the movie because Spider-Man actually used those.

    I like the organic shooters... the webshooters are just kind of weird... and makes him seem a little bit less cool.

    they both have their pros and cons, but i want them to be in the film just to show how smart he actually is, i don't think they ever show how smart he ever is in the last three films

    The organic makes more sense, I mean think about it people like fantasy movies to seem more like real life (I know that's an oxymoron). The web shooters just don't seem possible.

    Web Shooters could work if the movie was about him after he graduated from high school, but seeing  how it is about him in high school I think he  should keep the organic webbing.

    @spidey 15:
    You didn't  have to explain that. I  know Spidey doesn't run away when he is out of webbing. I think I was rushing    when I made this thread,but I really wanted to know what some of the people on Comic Vine think about web shooters in the new Spidey movie seeing how the Spider-Man movies are getting rebooted.  I knew I should have took my time with this thread.

     
    P.S I fixed it., so the "Spidey running away,because he is out of webbing" comment has been deleted.

    He had organic webbing for a few years, but he is now back to Web-Shooters.
     
    IMO, I'd like to see Web-Shooters. We've seen the organic webbing, and it was a nice change of pace. But now lets see how the make Web-Shooters work. Not to mention web shooters are a great plot device for running out of webbing and its an easy way to show how intelligent Peter really is(something that the first series really lacked, along with humor).

    He did gain organic shooters, but after OMD/BND he's now back to the Web Shooters.

    I want the Web Shooters in the movie, but only because it's a good way to show how smart Peter really is, plus it's fun to have him fighting a super-villain only to have his shooters run out, making Spidey have to use his big ol'brain to get him out of the situation and come out the winner ^_^

    Web shooters are worthless, in the comics and in the films.  Spider-Man rarely ran out of web fluid, despite him being a broke high school/college kid, making them quite worthless in the comics.

    They could both work. I'd like to see the web shooters for a change though.

    Personally I think he should keep organic webs, because they are more scientificly possible (a trait Marvel seems to be getting into), many of the old web-shooter problems CAN be carried over into the organic webs (i.e. Pete could use his webs faster then his body creates them, or his spinnerettes (sp?) could swell shut from over use), there is no real way a high school student even of Peter's level could create something government labs couldn't create with his fixed budget and the fact that the ingredients for web fluid can't be sold at your local drug store (see The Limits of Suspention of Disbelief), and there are plenty of other ways to show Peter is a science wiz-kid (the spider signal, his camera, and of course the ever popular Spider-Tracer). Stan Lee himself had once admited the only reason he created the idea of web-shooters was because he didn't think anyone would believe it possible for Spidey to shoot webs (see Spider-Man Tech from History Channel).

     

    Although, to get that old web-shooter feeling, Peter could also invent shooter-bracelets to help him aim his webs.
