Didn't see Spidey2 so can't comment on that.
But, the string of "NOs" thrown at the parents in the Schiavo case has unfortunately earwormed me with David Spade's irritating NO commercial for whatever - some airline miles thing?
Book: Where's the doctor? Not back yet?
Zoe: (beat) We don't make him hurry for the little stuff. He'll be along.
Book: He could hurry... a little.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

See, I noticed the comic excerpt before the cams, and really, I'm a Nightcrawler kind of a girl.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Since shooting webs is the only one of his powers that real spiders actually have, I consider the organic webshooters an improvement. t /heretic

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I'm all geeky about being faithful to the comic source, though there *is* a Spidey title (Spider-Man 2025, I think) where his webshooters are organic.
And my god, could I *be* a bigger dork?

Oh, and plus, I always liked how Peter designing the webshooters showed off his large science brain.

Climbing walls doesn't count?

Climbing walls doesn't count?
Well...it's more that none of his powers could all have come from the same spider. Like, hunting spiders can jump around like Spider-Man does, but they can't climb walls. And there's another kind that can climb walls, but doesn't jump. Superstrength and "spider sense" are both things ants do, but not spiders.
(And I suppose that the movie's updating "radioactive" to "genetically engineered" solves all of those issues, but still.)
