* In the opening it's days after the Battle of New York that most sources confirm as happening in 2012. Then it jumps eight years later to presumably 2020. But in Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar it had been only four years since New York and in this movie it had only been two months later.

** Considering the Damage Control crew were all armed and ready to shoot Toomes and his people at the first sign of trouble, they are likely all ex-military or law enforcement personnel who did not want blue-collar average joes messing with alien hardware that they might steal. Ironically this is exactly what happens by taking away their job.

**Vulture says that he put a lot of money into his current operation, and they've only worked on removing the debris for a day and a half, when one of the mooks says "we still have a truck full from yesterday"- implied but maybe not the case. Damage Control stepping in after everyone got experienced seems like it would have been too late. So they couldn't be trusted with damage control in the eyes of Ms Hoag and her indifference to many of the employees losing their jobs because of it. If Ms Hoag appears in the comics then she's a different person now.

[[folder: Why did Damage Control simply not just employ The Vultures Crew?]]
* Having Damage Control in the movie was awesome but why did they insist on kicking the previous company out? With the amount of superhero battles going on, they are going to need people who have some experience. The Vultures Company obviously did as they could not only handle the material safely, they could use it for their own ends. Instead of creating tension and bad will, simply telling them they worked under Damage Control jurisdiction with no change in pay or privileges sounds like the easy option. Ms Hoag is a cunning person and should have seen this solution.

** Probably wont't be much but Tony will probably be wanting to out the Avengers back together and remember, the Avengers are now a UN organisation so it will be weaponry related to Iron Man. Just because the Avengers are down to just a handful of active members (not including Spidey since Tony is making it clear Peter isn't ready at the moment), it doesn't mean that they still won't be technology that can be used by the remaining Avengers. It would in this case be related to how they handle the Vulture.
** Most of Vulture's crew is using tech from Avenger enemies (Chituri, Crossbones). Those crates could also be impounded advanced weaponry from Ultron or HYDRA.

* The last trailer shows a shipment of 'Avenger weaponry' being transported from Stark Tower to a site unknown by cargoplane, but for whom is it meant? Stark's Avengers are down to three, possibly four if including War Machine and Spider-Man, who obviously don't need that much equipment.

[[folder: Spidey's suit]]
Peter's suit is shown to have have built in web wings, an AI, a parachute, Spider Tracers and computerised programs. Tony only put it together in such a short time after recruiting him after knowing about how his powers work and he even mentioned he would have to get a suit together. I know Tony's a genius but how did he put all that together in a small suit in such a short time? Remember it took till Mark III to get his basic armor down. Did he make edits afterwards?

** And seriously, is anyone involved really going to care? It's a fitness video made back in the first Avenger movie days based on the outfit, so it's already a few years old. Is anyone in a public schools gym curriculum going to care enough to pay for a new video and is anyone in the government really care enough to stamp out ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING with Cap's face on it?

* In the trailer we see Peter and Ned in school PT outfit along with other students watching an educational video starring Steve Rogers in his first Avengers costume that was presumably made a few years ago. But isn't Steve Rogers a known fugitive wanted by the United Nations and the United States as Peter directly references his part in CaptainAmericaCivilWar? Wouldn't that make him politically inappropiate for kids to use as an example?

*** Plus, considering that the other masks feature Iron Man's metal helmet, Captain America's mask, and Hulk's angry green face, the makers probably thought "bearded blond guy" was a bit more dull and less likely to stand out. So they'd add something else to make it more interesting to potential consumers.

* The one time we've seen Thor wearing his helmet in this version is when he was on Asgard, several days before Earth even knew he was real. And he's sure as hell never had a clean shave. Where would whatever company made those masks get such an idea?

* Everyone now believes that Keaton is the Vulture in reference to his movie ''Film/[[Birdman}}'', we know he is a villain in the movie but they have not yet officially confirmed that he is the Vulture. Why is this, are they setting up some Mandarin esque twist, are they waiting for for some big set photo (like they did to confirm Martin Freeman was Everett K. Ross though everyone already thought that was who he was playing beforehand) to officially confirm it or is Keaton playing someone else and they are casting another of the actors as the Vulture. I just find it weird that they have it officially confirmed it despite everyone thinking that is the case.
