Why It Will Define 2017: Firstly, "If you’re nothing without this suit, then you shouldn’t have it" is just an awesome line of dialogue, but it's also going to be extremely interesting to see more of a younger, more naive and reckless Spider-Man than ever before.

And of course, Peter doesn't stop his superhero antics simply because his flashy Stark suit gets taken away: we know that he then uses his cheap proto-suit to take on Vulture (Michael Keaton) and summarily gets his a** kicked, before presumably getting the suit back later on and managing to defeat him...with a little help from Iron Man.

It's a novel way to re-fashion Spidey's origin story and not merely make it feel like yet another facsimile of the one fans know all-too-well.
