Just watched it again, dope af.
Love how much they drove home how much Peter is NOT ready to have access to all that tech.
For all those complaining about the connection to Ironman, it was necessary to integrate him into the MCU, it was the best way to make it make sense. And this movie is or at least was going to be the stepping stone to take the stakes from cosmic, "avengers level" threats to making it personal and more standalone. He was obviously going to be disillusioned from the tech, from looking for someone to replace his mentor and even being a super hero at all given the events at the end. This leads to him being stripped of all of that, of his support and having to fend for himself, he started out the movie looking for heavy hitters to come in and save the day but he is it...this is/was supposed to be his progression, and now we may not really get it, not done right.
it's not just the screen time, it's the suits, Happy and all that, but again, that was part of the integration process. I guess some people would have preferred they just shoehorn him in and pretend like he exists in a vacuum.
Tony, as much of a hero as he was trying to hand his legacy of WMD's over to a child makes you take a second look at him as a character, an unfavorable one in the wake of his sacrifice and see his glaring flaws that he was desperately trying to make up for. The point of pushing that angle as hard as it was pushed was to drive Peter away from it, to scare him out of trying to be the new Ironman, because it's clear that Marvel is looking to flip things on it's head and have a Villian fill that void instead, Mysterio isn't the only one with that idea.
Peter has to grow up, wanting the more adult storylines at this point makes no sense because he's not an adult...but the events in this movie were supposed to serve that growth process and have him shake some of the naivete and dependence on Uncle Tony.
