I just watched the episode where the Crimson Spider armor gets an owner and I just realized it rips off the Blue Beetle. The armor goes on the just like the Blue Beetle armor. It changes into a backpack jut like the Blue Beetle armor. WTF!! This is why I hate this series. It feels so generic. It is so bland and superficial. This is series is worse than Tobey dancing like a Bee Gee in Spiderman 3.

I saw like the last 10 minutes of that episode after flipping channels. The Peter Parker I know would NEVER entrust that outfit to a total stranger, much less let him keep it, no matter how smart said stranger was (which was another stupid thing about the episode, considering Peter Parker is one of the smartest people in MU, only surpassed by cosmic entities, Dr. Strange, Tony Stark, Dr. Doom and Reed Richards). Not only is it irresponsible of him, it's also STUPID; all he's doing is putting this kid's life in danger for NO REASON. I have no idea why Nick Fury would ever even CONSIDER agreeing to that. The writing in this show is SOOOOOO BAD.

Looked him up and yeah, he is smart, but Peter Parker has been confirmed as being smarter than Hank Pym on a number of occasions, so I'm not really buying it. Granted, these days, Marvel likes to make Spidey look weak and stupid, so his intellectual standing may have changed.

Marvel's official stats (which are on a scale of 1 to 7) have Peter's intelligence at 4. (2 is normal). Hank Pym officially is at 6. So is Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and Mr. Fantastic.
I'm not sure where you got your "information" from. -

The problem was Peter can't control it properly so he gave it to someone who can utilize it properly. Plus it made sense in terms of the new team Spiderman was making.
Spider Man doesn't need the suit to fight, so if someone else can utilize it properly and get more use out of it, idk what the problem is. -

Clearly you never saw the follow up episode where he used it just fine. -

The only reason why Peter doesn't have a need of it is the lack of creativity in this show's writing. There are plenty of times when armor and flight would be useful to him. In the actual comics Spidey has a whole collection of alternate costumes for alternate purposes.
It was a gift specifically customized for him, his theme, his powers, and so on. This wasn't some spare sweater we're talking about.
A lesson on sharing was turned into a lesson of de-valuing gifts specifically made by loved ones. Peter doesn't "Need" web shooters to be effective, theoretically. Does that mean he should give them to Wolverine? He just handed over a customized suit made specifically for him to a super genius who could make his own costume, weapons, and gimmicks. -

especially that episode with that vulture (remember's episode: goes mad with pure stupidity of characters, smashes some things up, comes back to keyboard, takes long, deep breaths, calms down a bit, resumes typing like a sane person should)
instead of flipping stealing a shield jet pack couldn't he just get the flipping iron spider!
it flies! it shoots missiles! it's got 3 spider/leg/appendages to do awesome beep with!
but no! oh God! that's it! i'm out!
(another) ps: flipping is just for the censors. i really want another word there. you know what word i'm talking about
