    Only one problem I had with the movie.

    Midway through the credits, Sony misspelled "conversion" as "converstion".

    Easter egg I didn't catch on first viewing:
    Spoiler: show
    Principal Morita at Peter's school is a descendant (possibly grandson?) of Jim Morita, one of Capn's Howling Commandoes, and is even played by the same actor.

    It's decent. The action scenes are just acceptable, the plane scene in particular is a rough watch. Hated the suit being ironmanish. Humor was well done, loved the golf course scene. Raimi 1&2 blow this thing out of the water imo.

    when tony just says "ok u saved a plane full of my stuff welcome to the avengers, but they had to show him turn it down for character growth so it's fine
    the action was also kind of odd, strangely shot and kind of awkward, but im sure that's what they were going for to show how inexperienced peter is
    It's more likely they saw he wasn't going to stop getting involved, so why not bring him on board fully?

    Would have been a nice easter egg if
    Spoiler: show
    the suit Tony offers Peter at the end to join the Avengers was based off the Iron Spider suit

    Eh I kinda see it now that I'm looking at screen caps, but it wasn't obvious to me when I saw it in theater.

    I turned and sexily whispered "Iron Spider" to the girlfriend and I'm pretty sure that's all the confirmation you need.

    Rumored cameo that didn't make it in the film:
    Spoiler: show
    Supposedly Vincent D'Onofrio petitioned Marvel to put Kingpin in the film at the end credits scene, being the one to confront Vulture in prison, but Marvel wanted to introduce Scorpion instead.

    That's more fan desire than his. He was quoted as saying he'd heard rumors of them wanting him in the film, but his reaction was he hadn't been aware of that, and that it wouldn't work. In 2 seperate tweets he said "Sorry folks but this is news to me. It would be great but I don't think it will happen." and later "The films are already jam packed."

    Netflix's Kingpin is waaaaaay beyond the PG-13 guidelines the MCU movies have been following.

    Playing devil's advocate as I'm not sure the cameo would be right for the movie in any case, but
    Spoiler: show
    Kingpin doesn't need any connection to Spiderman to want to befriend someone who was as effective as Vulture.

    That would have been great if they made it happen. Frankly it's needed since Kingpin is so heavily tied to both Spidey and Daredevil.

    Went and saw this movie today and thought it was great. I'd probably say it was equal or better than Spiderman 2, which was my previous favorite, but really haven't seen that in a long time.

    Spoiler: show
    From early trailers, I was kind of worried that Tony Stark was going to be around way too much and take away from the movie, but I think he was used just the right amount. The Vulture reveal near the end of the movie was great, so much tension for such a long period of time after that.

    The after credits scene was such a troll though.

    Head Cannon here, but since one of the descendant's of the Howling Commando's was principal, I'm pretty sure he insisted on the keeping the Cap videos after Civil War in memory

    The characters of this Spooderman made the movie. I didn't think Vulture could get pulled off right but they did it. A simple villain with a sympathetic bent to him. Didn't see the twist coming either.

    Just the right mix of awkward teenage behavior to make the movie fun while making adults cringe as it should be.

    I appreciate the small changes like Flash being an overachieving show-off rather than a vanilla bully and 'MJ' being a introverted snarker rather than generic love interest. For all the hooplah about young Aunt May, that too seems like a good choice that'll be developed in the inevitable sequels. So long as Sony can use the greater MCU, I think Spider-Man hasn't been in a better place since Raimi Spiderman 1.

    Plus, Tobey Maguire isn't in it. Huge plus.

    Spoiler: show
    Did Macross die of a brain aneurysm from not one, but two interracial relationships in the movie?
