Trivia

The working title of the film was Summer of George, a reference to the eighth season finale of Seinfeld (1989). Co-producer Eric Hauserman Carroll stated the code name was selected because during production crew members watched reruns of the series weeknights on a local Los Angeles TV station and discussed them with each other the next day. Consequently, the working title of the sequel is Fall of George.

Goofs

Peter's video at the beginning of the movie differs from what is shown during Captain America: Civil War when Ant Man becomes Giant Man. In Peter's video, you see Ant Man grow in the background and Peter says he's big now and has to go. In Civil War, they show Spider-Man's immediate reaction is to shout "Holy $&#!"

Quotes

[first lines]
Adrian Toomes: Things are never gonna be the same. I mean, look at this. You got aliens. You got big green guys tearing down buildings. When I was kid, I used to draw cowboys and Indians.
Phineas Mason: Actually, it's Native American, but whatever.

Refreshing Spider-Man

Considering this is the sixth Spider-Man film since the start of the noughties. It is really positive the fact Marvel was able to successfully bring in so many fresh ideas. It is also worth noting how many good jokes they were able to get into the film that had not been covered in the previous five. Obviously, one thing that was an advantage to this film is it went into an already established cinematic universe when the others didn't have that advantage. Tom Holland portrayal was witty and linked all the other characters really well. It was also nice to see Gwenyth Paltrow make a cameo as Pepper Potts. Nice to see the appearances of two new villains on the big screen but at this point, I would be curious to see the green goblin return. So overall I would definitely recommend this movie.
