How the MCU ruined Spider-man...

I might guess what you're thinking:
Nefty, weren't you the one praising Tom Holland as the perfect balance between Tobey and Garfield Spidey?
Yes, yes I was. I'm excited for any Spidey sequels and Infinity War, but after rewatching Civil War and Homecoming, some things aren't clicking that well with me now...
And they are not Zendaya, who we already stated that is the worst part of Homecoming. Not gonna touch the Milesification of Peter and his forced diversity circle.

I'm talking about the pointlessness of the Iron Spider Suit...

Think about it... He ALREADY HAS AN IRON SPIDER SUIT... Voiced by Jennifer Connelly. So, aside for the "buy the toys" factor, there is no real reason for the Iron Spider Suit... At least it doesn't have the Scrooge McDuck spats... But that thing's ugly. I have a figure and it hasn't come out the Toy Chest because of laziness and (not finding Taskmaster to assemble Grimace)

While, yeah, Stark making an Iron Spider prototype suit in two days for Spidey is a thing of genius, at the same time is a bit lame. Now think about this: if Stark can make Ironman suits that behave like spandex, why is he making those bulky outfits with a gajillion of moving parts that can cause problems?

Also, if he can Iron Spidey, why didn't he Iron Cap, Iron Natasha, Iron Hawkeye, Iron Scarlet Witch? Hell, even Iron Motherloving Nick Fury!

Now if Stark had simply upgraded Peter's outfit to be simply an advanced compression suit to be worn under his civilian clothes for some quick change action, it would've made sense. Having the suit been able to regulate his Temperature by keeping him warm on winter and cool on summer. Maybe being blow resistant would've helped without going full Ironman on him. (I mean, wasn't Ironman 2 the movie where Tony got drunk and wanted to get rid of any copies of his armor tech?)
Maybe even adding a set of more compact web shooters and cartridge belt that could fit with his new attire would've been better. With the mask being simply a more expensive version of Peter's original mask (by more expensive I mean, fancier lenses.)

Something, something, Real Tony wouldn't put Peter on an Iron Suit, seeing that he just MET him. So that doesn't make sense. But what's worse was Peter's dependence on Stark Tech. It made Peter look bad. Spider-man, the Ultimate loner, due to how people mistrust him is now being entrusted with super high tech from Stark (how many millions did he spend on that outfit?) Right out the bat. Peter's Common sense should have been tingling!!

I kinda wish they hadn't been hell-bent into bringing the Iron Spider, since the suit we needed will be worn by Bane.
