Evidently there is no getting a break for the DCEU. Not even days after releasing their first Justice League film, Marvel called their bet and went all in with a new Spider-man Homecoming trailer. The trailer (which can be found at the bottom of the article) is INCREDIBLE, dare I say: Amazing! No worries, I cringed at that pun too. Anyways, this is the second good look we have had at the wall crawler's next solo outing, and the first of him in the MCU, and boy did it not disappoint.
There are many things essential to properly capturing Spider-man. Quick wit, a sharp tongue, and obviously the web slinging and wall crawling. However, equally important (if not more so) is the integral words: "With great power comes great responsibility." This sage like wisdom from Peter's beloved late Uncle has defined the character's moral compass for the past 60 or so and is key to properly portraying the character. Shortly after the release of DC's first Justice League trailer since the San Diego Comic-con footage, Marvel released it's second trailer of Spider-Man: Homecoming. Marvel had already sold most on the movie in it's impressive first trailer, but any naysayers of the first trailer have almost undoubtedly been put to bed by this second trailer as we get an even clearer window into the feel of this film.
The trailer ultimately maintains the lighter tone that the first had, however, the trailer is not without it's drama. In the trailer Spider-Man makes a rather large mess of a Staten Island ferry and not even his spidey strength, can he hold it together. This is followed by a rather peeved Tony Stark cleaning up Peter's mess and demanding the suit back after this gross misuse of power. In it Tony Stark has a line that is sure to be a defining moment of the film in: "If you're nothing without the suit, then you shouldn't have it." Sure it's not uncle Ben, but it's a fresh take of an old message that has been integral to the wall crawler's story since the very beginning. This trailer once more showed just how much Spider-man needs to be back home at MARVEL.
From seeing ol' webhead swinging through the residential area in Queens, to the amazing chemistry and fun bromance between Peter Parker and Ned Leeds, and finally to the message of the film ringing so true to the struggle of this much beloved character, this trailer is a love note to fans of the comics and of the Spider-Man.
Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, young Peter Parker (Tom Holland) returns home to live with his Aunt May. Under the watchful eye of mentor Tony Stark, Parker starts to embrace his newfound identity as Spider-Man. He also tries to return to his normal daily routine -- distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just a friendly neighborhood superhero. Peter must soon put his powers to the test when the evil Vulture emerges to threaten everything that he holds dear.
Thanks for swinging by this latest edition of Comic Relief! Look forward to seeing you next time!
