2. The Post-Credits Scene

Spider-Man: Homecoming's post-credits scene - which shows Captain America in his PSA role teaching a valuable lesson about the merits of patience was a good joke as much as it poked fun at the entire culture of investing so heavily in what happens after you're supposed to leave the cinema. It's a bit of an insult at the same time, but there is at least something to be said for the humour in there.

The same cannot be said of the utterly pointless post-credtits stinger, which is an insult to anyone choosing to sit in their seat to the bitter end. It stars Goose and it's a very obvious, very cynical final grab at some cheap reactions, but when it boils down to it, waiting so long for THAT pay-off is just not very nice at all.
