10 Best MCU Endings
10. Spider-Man: Homecoming
Spider-Man: Homecoming was a breath of fresh air, and truly started Phase 3 off on a high note. While some of Avengers: Age of Ultron may have had too much fan service to go around, Tom Holland’s version of Spidey is still one of the most lovable comic book characters ever put to screen. Even when Spidey got a movie of his own, it kept within his high school demeanour up until the very end.
After going against Tony’s wishes and being stripped of his trademark suit, Peter’s attempt to apprehend the Vulture worked out for the best, showing that even the little guy can do big things in the face of defeat. Though things were left uncertain once Peter rejects Tony’s offer to become a fully-fledged Avenger, he is left with his upgraded suit back home.
Dawning the signature red and blue tights, everything seems to be going fine before Aunt May comes into frame, putting a perfectly comedic ending to the film.
As opposed to letting you have all the closure you might want, this little reveal keeps dragging you out to the end, leaving you to wonder how Peter’s going to deal with his aunt knowing his real identity. There have been a lot of heavy handed moments in the MCU, but this subtle joke before the credits roll put some of that child-like innocence back into the franchise.
