It always seemed odd to me that "a" radioactive spider could do this to just one person. In this film version, the room was chock full of spiders. One bit Peter. So you mean to tell me that none of the other spiders, either accidentally or purposefully (human experimentation), bit any of the scientists or workers? If there was something within Peter waiting to be triggered, then it would explain why he alone developed such spiderpowers.

I also thought that there was some connection with the fact that it worked so well for Peter, and that his father was the one who developed the spiders in the first place. Perhaps he tested his experiments with his own blood to further his work, Peter being his son stands to reason that it would work with him also.
On the subject of a changed story I did notice the lines missing from the previews where someone is asking
'Do you have any idea.......what you really are?"
and Connors saying
"If you want the truth Peter, come and get it."
