Infinity War Does Whatever a Spider Can - The Peter Parker/Spider-Man thread

[Iceman]

I haven't seen Homecoming since it's release but I remember thinking his reaction was odd considering he just turned down an invitation from Stark at the end of his own film? And now he's all of a sudden honored to be a part of them.
Maybe there was enough of a time gap between these 2 films so he basically had a change of heart?

I think that was supposed to be a test from Stark that he passed by turning down the opportunity.

Actually, it wasn't. Peter thought it was but Tony had arranged a press conference to present the newest Avenger to the world. Unless my memory is foggy.

Edit: So I guess, since Peter thought Tony was testing him, he tried to be "act" mature and turned it down, but deep down he really wanted to join them. That could work.

I'd surely hope not. That would make Spider-Man: Homecoming's ending and character arc for Peter completely pointless

It’s in my lower half of MCU films. Holland was fine in it but it’s not a film I would rewatch every day. Spidey in IW though was pretty much amazing all the way through. Couldn’t have asked for any more.

Yeah these are pretty much my feelings on how he has been handled so far in the MCU. The Russo’s have nailed Spidey that bit more though.

I was surprised how much I liked his spider legs in this one. Wasn't crazy upon hearing they would put it in beforehand but it looked and moved like real spider legs and felt like natural extensions of the suit. They were used really well overall.

Agreed, I loved how they were used as an extension of his powers and rather than getting in the way, they often helped him throughout.

Yeah, IW is 2 years after S:HC.

I see. Yeah a lot can happen in 2 years.

[Iceman]

Didn't think I would like the legs all that much but they were cool. Aside from that I totally loved the Iron Spider suit.

I really don't want envy Sony's marketing job preventing spoilers for A4. Unless of course they don't give a **** and feel spoilers is Marvel's problem not theirs.

Here's another nitpick, since you bring up a good point. Tony tells Banner that The Avengers broke up and don't exist anymore, but then in Homecoming, why was Tony having a press conference about adding Peter to the team, and then making him official in IW, when out of his own words, the Avengers is broken. And, since when is it Tony's job to recruit Avengers when I thought Steve was supposed to be the leader? Or is this just another way of the creators showing how useless Steve is in the end? Either way, this kind of bothers me what kind of legacy they are leaving for Captain America. He's becoming very unimportant in the grand scheme of things.

Cap along Tony and Thor are obviously going to be the major players in the sequel as they are the founding members of the Avengers.

That's great and all, but again, why would Tony tell Banner that the Avengers broke up when he tried to recruit Peter back in Homecoming, and then finally made it official in this movie?

Did you forget Civil War happened? Steve is on the run. He’s not going to be recruiting anyone. Literally the entire founding group of the Avengers is broken up. Steve and Nat are on the run. Banner and Thor were on a different planet. Clint retired. That’s what he meant.

At this point I think the Avengers only consisted of 3 members at this point and barely that, considering Vision was constantly leaving. It isn't shown Steve being useless since there is essentially 2 fractons of the Avengers similar to the comics post Civil War; The Avengers on the run and the Avengers working for the government basically.

It would be funny if they weren't allowed to feature Spider-man at all in the marketing. And not even be able to call the film Spider-man.

Wait, maybe Venom is really Homecoming 2 then! t:

 

[BigThor]

I think MCU Spider-Man is pretty much exactly at his 25 ton comic book strength level. In Civil War that airport structure he caught was 27 tons and it was just a little to much for him.

Which means MCU Spider-Man has the most accurate CBM strength level of all time.

I know I'm late but still, bravo Marvel Studios and Russos bros, bravo!

Could you competently market a movie in two months?
I'm going to say no.

If it's incompetence you're looking for, Sony's your man

I don't even think the kings of marketing (Disney) could adequately market a movie in two months.

 

[Flint Marko]

I have a feeling that Spidey will show up in A4's marketing beforehand, so Sony's marketing will be free to show what they need.

 

[WitcherGeralt]

Plot twist: Spidey (MCU) is dead af and the next film is a standalone film with no connection to MCU.

 

[spider-neil]

A clever ad campaign would be Peter's family and friends dealing with the aftermath of IW.

 

[Drizzle]

It's been done before, but very rarely. I remember Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End didn't have a trailer until two months before release because they wanted to keep a lot of that movie a secret. So Disney is fine with it, but I'm not sure if Sony will play ball.

The original team is broken up with half on the run. Tony is trying to rebuild the team obviously. and now Thor is back too

This.

He wanted to be an avenger, in cw, and homecoming. Even in the end you could tell. Don't particually think the end of homecoming has much bearing on his arc at all.
