Spiderman? (Conversion)

[Eoin]

Was it just me or was sheppsrd using spiderman moves just before teyla shot at his feet?? First was the wall crawling and then when he jumped the two army people(jumped down like spiderman and took them out with spidey moves)

[Qasim]

Yes he was

[Eoin]

Yes he was

i thought that... but wouldnt there be some copyright crap invloved for TPTB to use spidy moves?

[Qasim]

The Spiderman films were made by Sony and Stargate is owned by Sony

[Eoin]

Forgot there for a second that sony owns mgm
Thanx for refreshing my memory

Also, I am pretty sure there is nothing exclusive about a man-bug climbing a wall. I dont think that is copyrightable (is that a word). Super powers seem to be open for anyone to use as long as the person isnt put in the exact same costume and called by the same or very similar name.

Indeed! And besides, it was a very cool set of moves...

I thought it was abit cheesy, but might explain where that wraith spiderweb stuff comes from, maybe the body, possibly the hands which would explain how Shep could do it in the first place.

There is always that. It would also explain some of the moves the Wraith made in Instinct, like jumping from a great height...

what about in The Defiant One when that Wraith jumped up and disappeared?

And, of course, that...

Don't think the jumping is to do with spiderwebs, Shep could jump high onto where the iratus bug's eggs were kept clearly without any of it.

I don't know about copy right. I mean, jumping high isn't really TM'd by spider-man, alot of show use it. It's more like one of those generally used techniques. If someone did sue for copyright I'd call them an idiot and grow up. It would be pathetic.

[Ollock]

They probably used spiderman moves simply because it's a very similar situation--where the DNA of the respective bug is spliced into a human.

Now, why were the changes so incredibly fast--or does that have to do with the regenerative abilities he got with it (assuming the Wraith regeneration caused Ellia's transformation to be faster)

I wasnt on bout the jumping... i was on about the move's he used to take out the gaurds.... they were deff. a set of moves spidey used in the movie... but sony owns both shows so they can do what ever they want...
P.S when i seen the moves my spidey sense told me they were from the movie
