The Amazing Spider-Man The Web Fluid: Stolen, or bought? Oscorp, or not?

[Jexx]

Sorry, it's just interesting to me.

Yea, that makes sense.

Although, I would think that the police would find it odd that a boy who does nothing in construction is constantly buying a certain amount of cabling while also living in a house with a woman who presumably doesn't have a job in construction either.

 

[Jexx]

I would assume the web-shooters mix whatever he adds to the bio-cable fluid when they shoot it.

Ah, there we go. That would make sense then. But him altering the cable isn't confirmed either. I wonder if it's in deleted scenes.

 

[Jexx]

My guess is that he "borrowed" it from OsCorp. I didn't get a feeling that this was something that you could buy at Wal-Mart.

I dunno.. flickchick has some good ideas, I wouldn't be surprised if you could buy it at walmart.

The police can't monitor the purchases of every citizen in NYC. They have no reason to be looking at what a science-loving kid in queens has bought. And again, I would think the bio-cable could be used for more than just construction.

Well, I doubt it's SO commonplace that you could buy it at Wal-Mart. I mean, you couldn't buy high-end mountain climbing gear in Wal-Mart either. I don't see why it wouldn't be available from specialty stores, though.

 

[Jexx]

Right, right...

Hmm.. I wonder how large the web manufacturing area actually is. All we saw was pretty much one machine packaging it. Would imagine that there would be a large amount of those machines.. Unless Oscorp owns manufacturing plants that contain spider-rooms.

He did say it was special webbing he designed himself, though. If he was just talking about the shooters, the line could have easily been "web-shooters I designed myself." That leads me to believe he did modify the bio-cable substance itself to make the webbing.

There could've been other machines in that very building, too. Peter just went into one room, and it was a big place.

 

[Jexx]

Well, he could of said webbing because that was actually what the bio-cable was, just in cable form.

 

[Jexx]

Anyway, flickchick, you clearly put out a great theory that is completely possible given what we know.

I wonder if other people have different theories.

I personally think this is how the Green Goblin will track Spider-Man as Peter in his film.

 

[John Locke]

Well when he webbed his leg you can clearly see that a mist was shooting out with the cable. So maybe he does mix something with the cable. It is also possible that he finds a way to create it himself.

That would involve peter stealing two spiders from oscorp and hosting a spider-farm.

This is one of several things that shouldve been explained in the course of the movie. I enjoyed the movie, and liked almost everything I saw on the screen, but Im hoping for an extended cut at some point. In my opinion, there are important moments that didnt make the cut because of time coinstraints.

 

[Jexx]

Marc Webb said there will be no Director's cut.

All we can hope for are DVD extras.

You can clearly see the mist everytime he shoots a web.

 

[markstrange]

There is an Ad. like video playing in Oscop that talks about the application of the Spider Web Cable. It shows an animation of the a car being pulled buy a thin line. Its possible he bought them online.

 

[Jexx]

Maybe that's what is being added to the bio-cable? I'd imagine that it would just be a chemical agent that would loosen up the bio-cable and increase the speed at which it deteriorates.

... I like this idea. At least it would show that someone in OsCorp was competent.

 

[Jexx]

Well, he is Norman Osborn. I assume he would review most sales records as the CEO/Owner of the company. He's also a genius.

aka stole

It didn't really indicate anything like that. Maybe there is a deleted scene. I think they chopped off a good 15-20 minutes.

That would be a pretty genius twist.

 

[MessiahDecoy123]

Nice thread Jexx. I was wondering the same thing.

But I hope they never confirm the real answer and leave it open to interpretation.

It's more fun this way.

 

[Jexx]

Well, I dunno, if it's in a cut-scene, would it be confirmed, or still open to interpretation?

aka stole

Um, sure. He stole it from OsCorp. I guess that's just as bad as being an outlaw vigilante. Cancel the movie.

Anyway, there should've been a scene explaining how he got it, but maybe Webb wanted to avoid it...Whatever the case, I just don't think he purchased the stuff.
