Should Spiderbitez become an ally?
 
I was just thinking about how stupid it is that Spiderbitez became a villain. He was basically some normal 50 year old guy living at home watching TV, his only beef with the Turtles was that his phone got destroyed in the middle of battling the Kraang.

Aside from being at odds with Raphael, there really is no real reason for him to be a villain. Its not like he was a bad guy or criminal already like Snake, Chris Bradford or Xever....he was just some 50 year old retired fat guy living in NYC.

Instead of Spiderbitez being a boring and generic villain, I hope he becomes an ally of sorts. I really can't see any further potential of him as a bad guy as it is.

As a human, let's not forget that Spiderbitez was corrupt in that he wanted to sell the footage of the turtles for money. I believe this was the writers way of showing that there is darkness and greed in his heart, as well as a way of hinting to his eventual transformation.

He was just an asshole, assholes don't need much to be villains. They're just inherently "evil". No harm in that.
It's much easier to believe he'd take his negative persona to the next step as opposed to him letting a bunch of weirdos help him see the light.

I am 99.99% sure the only time we will ever see Spiderbitez again is in a filler episode, just like Turtle Temper was. And he'll probably have some stupid plan to kill the turtles.

Im agree! :tgrin: He only wants his phone cos the money! :trazz: even when his life was in danger! :teek:

I don't think he'll be an ally to the Turtles at all. He was too greedy and wanted to expose them in order to get cash. I doubt they would want him to fight on their side, and even if he does, it'll be more like it was in 2K3 when the Turtles had to team up with Karai and Bishop.

TurtleTitan97 01-11-2013 09:49 AM

I would rather see him kept as a villian.

Berserker 01-11-2013 10:04 AM

To be honest I thought he was stupid all around, like the garbage villain from the 2k3 series. I hope he doesn't show up again, villain or not. Filler episodes for the lose.

They spent too much on character models to only be used once.

A filler episode with a filler villain that just created an extra mutant just for the sake of adding more mutants.

And of all the ways you or I might imagine what a human-spider mutant might look like... this is what they came up with? He looks like a goombah mixed with a retarded scorpion or something.

If he comes back I think his motivations will again be greed. Maybe he'll be robbing banks or something. I was going to say that he would come back in a I want to be returned to normal sort of way, but I think he probably likes the power that comes with his mutation. Even if it means losing what he had before

Jephael 01-11-2013 11:36 AM

I kinda wanna see Spider-Bytes come back just so we can get a possible Spider-Man reference thrown in.

Agreed. At least all the old mutants from the 90's looked cool, no matter how you felt about their characters.

There's a reason why all those old mutants created for the OT/Archie are still memorable to this day.

hearing lewis black voice a cartoon villain was cool, but my lingering question was where in the eff was he running off to?

Which would just be utter nonsense. Where would he spend such money, as a giant mutant goombah? Could he walk into a bank, sit down, open an account and invest it all?

It would honestly be funny if he did rob a bank and then have Don (or really... anyone) ask him exactly what you said, and watch him drop the money and freak out.

I don't know... maybe later the Kraang can enlist Snakeweed, Spider Bytes and other random filler mutant villians they're bound to come up with for some kind of mutant army against the Turtles.

AT-Man 01-11-2013 02:30 PM

He would probably be a salvageable mutant character, if they would make him to resemble more of an actual spider rather than a head with limbs, tell us his mutation wasn't yet complete in that one episode or something. It's not too late!

zkarlette 01-11-2013 02:40 PM

The motivation could be as always "Because of you four reptiles I turned into this monster blah,blah,blah"...

And then he joins shredder's club.

Andrew NDB 01-11-2013 02:59 PM

I do have a feeling all of this surplus of unaccounted for bad guy mutants is eventually going somewhere (and if not, what are they doing?)... I'm imaging some kind of TMNT Bad Guy version of this:

I dunno if you've ever watched Cartoon Network's Teen Titans back in the day, but that's exactly what happened later in that series, and seeing as how big an influence Teen Titans is to this incarnation of the TMNT, I'm betting that's exactly what's going to happen down the line.
