Love it!

One of the things that’s particularly nice is how, for the first time in the films, they’ve finally captured (in a very modernized take) the Flash-Spidey-Peter dynamic.  That’s always been such an important part of the comics in the Silver/Bronze age and basically glossed over in the previous movies.  They’ve eliminated the trite “bully” stuff ... but kept the rest of it here, and it’s great!

Solid trailer but...the villains are elementals rather than Mysterio?

Doesn't inspire confidence because that kind of stupidity was featured in the first Ghost Rider film, where the primary villains were Blackheart's henchmen, literally elementals: Earth, Air, and Water (before we got to the "Big Bosses" -- Blackheart and Mephistopheles.)

Seriously, having a Spider-Man film rip off Ghost Rider is as idiotic as when Indiana Jones - Kingdom of the Crystal Skull _literally_ had the same ending as Predator 2.

Also...no hint of Shocker after the build-up in Homecoming?
