Spider-Man: Homecoming - 10 Spidey Movie Mistakes It Must Avoid
10. Yet Another (Needless) Origin Story
Seriously, this kid gets more reboots that Batman, and the last thing we want is the first 1/3 of the film telling us how Peter Parker became an orphaned nerd who watched Uncle Ben die before his eyes.
Having Spider-Man as a brief part in Civil War should have set the scene for us to swing straight in, but knowing how these films usually go, there will undoubtedly be flashbacks, school bullies, and an awkward moment where a young Peter tries to woo the girl.
It hasn't been confirmed, but having the cougarish Aunt May put her moves on Tony Stark implies that a) she is single, and b) her mourning period is over. It is morbidly good that it looks like Uncle Ben has already passed on, because alongside Thomas and Martha Wayne, that guy is the most killed adult in cinema.
This means we can get straight into Parker's evolution from boy wonder to crime-fighter, and hopefully see him take on his villains early. We expect some exposition, and possibly a radioactive spider bite, but you would think that after 14 years the studios might have something else to shoot other than Tom Holland kneeling in a gutter and crying.
