Yeah, that caught me off guard too, and was a well done motivator for the final fight.

I loved that Zemo was not superpowered. The idea that a regular person can do this much damage to the Avengers was unique and interesting.

Makes me feel bad that I missed Ant-Man in theatres, too (I'll get around to it). 

I feel like Ant-Man was better here than in his own movie (which I liked, even though it has problems).
FINE

Agreed. I really liked him in this movie, even though I didn't like the Ant-Man movie.

And considering that the last time we saw Falcon he was being completely EMBARRASSED by a noob, it was great to see him here being awesome. Plus all the creative stuff he did with his wings was brilliant.

So that after-credits sequence...

It's a reference to the Spider-Man animated series /and comics of that time where he projected his symbol.

BTW, no need for spoiler tags now that the thread is marked as a spoiler zone!

Well his current suit has high tech elements, so it could just be an interface with that, or it's just communication links to stark industries.

Seems like it, weird to introduce a new costume and then change it but having an Avenger in spandex when he could be wearing something stronger doesn't really make sense on a practical level

That depends on the abilities of the avenger, I'd have thought. His whole thing is agility, acrobatics etc. Light weight is probably the ideal for him.

And since the new Spider-Man movie will have Iron Man in it, he could end up having a similar relationship with him to Nick Fury in the most recent Spider-Man cartoon.  But I think the main takaway was he had that classic spotlight (though the fact that it had an interface of some kind certainly hints at connections to Stark.

Yeah, if that's the reason it seems unnecessary.  My first thought was just it was pre-empting whining

Yeah, I know I'm in the extreme minority on disliking the Ant-Man movie.


Is it just me or was the way Tony telling Spider-Man "You're done!" made it sound like he had done something wrong and angered Tony, but he hadn't. Considering it was his first superbattle, he did great.

I think it was realizing he had pushed him too far, and didn't want him to get hurt any worse.

That makes more sense. It felt like Tony was warming up to being a type of father figure to Peter in the introduction scene.

There is precedent for there being an Iron Spider Suit, and it was based in the Civil War timeline. It is completely possible, considering Marvel, that this suit will make an appearance. Also, Spider-Man gains the abilities of a spider, which is why the spandex works well for him; he can take hits that most people can't, since he would have proportional dirability equal to a spider's. I am really looking forward to Homecoming, since it's I love Spider-Man. At the moment, he's the only Avenger, aside from Scarlet Witch, who has actual super powers. The rest of them are examples of the human body being capable of certain things. Vision is a being of pure intelligence, Iron Man is A product of intellect and Technology. Captain America is the absolute extent of what humanity is capable physically, The Hulk is science gone wrong, and embodiement of pure rage(makes me sad that he couldn't have been in Blackest Night from the DC universe; he'd have been a great deputy Red Lantern over Aquaman's wife), Widow is assassin/stealth,etc. Plus, I love how things always suck for him, because Spider-Man. I hope they expand on his tragedy more, because it's what makes him a relatable character.

Interesting comic tidbit, they're gearing up for Civil War round 2, and he seems to be teaming up with Iron Man AGAIN, which is odd, since it worked out horribly the first time.
