I think they underestimated how fast they were gonna get to Infinity War and had to readjust.
Fiege described Harry Potter as what the films were going for. So each film would've been a year of high school which was fine in theory.
Marvel has a limited definition of being "Youthful".
If you're starting Peter from the beginning and planning to go more in-depth with his progression as a teenage Spider-Man into adulthood and beyond, it makes sense to start young.
I don't think the execution was quite there to justify it though.
If it meant he didn't become the team's kid sidekick, sure.In theory, but I would've liked an MCU Spider-Man closer in age to the main Avengers
No Parker Industries please .
I mean, we got a mix.
Tony started at the beginning, Steve just got started before he got on ice, Thor was immortal but wasn't a "Superhero" yet, Widow and Hawkeye were established secret agents, Banner had been on the run for years, Wanda, Vision, Sam, and Rhodey all started their Superhero careers from the ground up or in sequel movies.
The point was to focus on his beginning more than past movies did which, honestly, seemed fair even if the approach didn't really do much for Spider-Man.
It doesn't fit the character, for a variety of reasons.What's wrong with Parker Industries?

Would you have liked a take on Peter more like this character?
