So was Unlce Ben mentioned in Homecoming?

tony rdj stark is peter's new uncle

Peter did a very vague 'i cant tell May because of all thats happened' bit. Thats as close as it gets.

So why not a full mention, they don't need to show his death for the 3rd time but at least a mention of a character this important to Peter.

I think they assume that the audience already knows peter's backstoryeven though they don't

Who gives a shit if there's a few morons out there that don't know about Uncle Ben's rice? The lack of pointless rehashing of old bullshit was definitely a plus
>>93733604
I'm glad they didn't to be honest. It's such well trodden territory at this point.

Isn't if inferred pretty hard in Civil War when Peter and Tony are talking

The problem is if you look at the film on its own, it seems like Pete only does what he does to impress Mr Stark. And believe it or not, there are kids who's first introduction of Spider-man is this film. There's no need for an elaborate flashback, but atleast something to clearly show Peter does what he does because of Ben.

I actually got that Aunt May's overprotectiveness of Peter is directly tied to Ben's death and not just because she's a kindly aunt for the first time in Homecoming. Ben has a presence, but he's never mentioned.

Friendship with Uncle Ben is over, Uncle Tony is my friend now

>oh, you're sad because a girl at your high-school doesn't like you back? Peter, when I was your age, I left school to bullseye gooks from a helicopter in the middle of some god forsaken jungle. Don't tell me you have it hard because you're a pathetic kissless virgin. You can act sad when you have to leave behind the lady-boy you fell in love with and made passionate steamy love to in a collapsing bamboo shack, just like I did. You think I felt good about firebombing his chink village and watching our fuck-hut burn to the ground? We were going to build our lives together there, Peter! You know what? Fuck you. Get the fuck out of my car.
how did raimi get away with this

Raimiposting truly is the only good thing to come out of the festering hellhole that is /tv/

The movie already suffers from being bloated, it REALLY would not have helped to retread the backstory. It'll be more impactful if they do a flashback to it in a later movie.
