Bah, the webshooters were stupid. Both in the comics and the animated series. If he has the powers of a spider, shouldn't he get the webbing powers aswell?Seth Gecko said:Found this today man i wish they woulda used these

1. they hinted at his intellect. the fact that Pete made them and had to constantly make and upgrade the web fluid showed us just how brilliant he was supposed to be. remember geeky science nerd!
2. they allowed for strategic planning. Pete was always making "special" fluid for use against particular enemies. super tensile strength for Rhino/Hulk, flame retardent for Torchy, waterproof, ect. i seem to recall he had an extra gooey one for someone (Paste Pot Pete? lol). this is good stuff for a movie! waste of opportunity IMO.
3. the shooters being mechanical allowed for certain story elements. they could malfunction or run outta fluid at crucial times, making for high suspense. we've already seen that the organic ones need him to be "sick" physically or mentally to stop working properly. making Pete get sick all the time for plot reasons would get old (in fact we'd all groan if they do it again in even just one future movie lol), but anyone who's operated machinery, or even just had a car knows how often and even probable it could be for it to break down.
4. and THE biggest reason...as someone already pointed out, if they were organic they should logically be shooting out his ass.
