I knew they were gonna use Michael Keaton being a former Batman as a joke.

I kinda feel bad for Tobey Spiderman. He's still being kept out of the cafe years later just because of his last movie. That's not really fair.

I mean, everyone hates The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and that douche got in, so why is Tobey Spidey, who has two good movies (or at least two movies better than the last one) still kept out?

...Why didn't Tony put a parachute in the War Machine suit? I mean, that's a pretty huge design flaw there Tony?

To be fair, Tony didn't build the Warmachine suit to be used in combat. He built the suit as a prototype, Rodey jacked it, then had Hammer Industries retrofit it. We're never told if the later armors are entirely new armors or further retrofits of what was the Mark 2.

Or alternative: The suit had a parachute, but it required power to operate (As it'd be embedded in armor), which Warmachine's armor no longer had when Vision took out its arc reactor.

Good point. That being said, when you have what is essentially a glowing bullseye on your chest, coming up with ways to protect it seems like a good idea, especially once Tony started building the suits for combat.

Coming up with a way to activate certain functions when you have no power was definitely something that should have been on Tony's list.

There've been manual emergency functions on the suit since literally the Mark II. When Tony's plummeting from the sky during his first test flight after ascending too high, he shouts at J.A.R.V.I.S. to "deploy flaps" in order to break the ice.. Not getting any response, he spins a dial on the suit's hip to do it manually.

That being said, taking a shot from an Infinity Gem straight to center mass could have done more than just knock out the suit's power. While Rhodey is plummeting, he says, "Tony, I'm flying dead stick," and he sounds like he's in a lot of pain as he says it. Either of the following scenarios are plausible:

  • Vision's shot knocked out any manual contingencies built in.
  • Vision's shot hurt Rhodey badly enough that he didn't have the strength to reach for any manual contingencies.

Huh.

Ok, I'll accept that. It does seem strange that Tony would forget to consider the possibility of power being knocked out, but the blast from Vision's stone causing enough physical pain that it would flat out prevent Rhodey from being able to save himself (and Tony not expecting something like that) isn't so out there.

That being said, we can all expect Tony to have that in the next suit.

He already did include that in the next suit. The next suit was Spider-Man's, and it's designed to deploy the parachute at a certain altitude without user input.

I'm talking about his and Rhodey's suits (though I didn't forget Peter's suit either).

To be fair - we've also not seen Spidey's suit with the power knocked out!

There've been manual emergency functions on the suit since literally the Mark II. When Tony's plummeting from the sky during his first test flight after ascending too high, he shouts at J.A.R.V.I.S. to "deploy flaps" in order to break the ice.. Not getting any response, he spins a dial on the suit's hip to do it manually.

And that armor was the Mark 2 suit. The SAME suit that Rodey is wearing as part of his Warmachine suit. The same suit that, as the scene above shows, never had a parachute :-P

The opening joke being the exact same set-up from the Spider-Man 3 video is probably my favorite thing.

That's been a running gag. That awesome black science guy shows up in every Spider-Man HISHE, and it just gets funnier and funnier with each appearance.

I knew that. I meant the joke having the same punchline word for word.

Including the villain's response of "I got a daughter, so that makes it okay."

Let Tobey Spiderman into the Cafe!

I mean, he did two (kinda) good movies, but because the last one sucked he gets locked out?

That's bullshit. Why is Garfield Spidey still let in after Amazing 2? I call bullshit! I call bullshit forever!

I know what he fricking did!

I hate that part too, but before he did that, he had two movies where he didn't do stupid shit like that.

Are you gonna hold one Symbiote induced mistake over his head forever after two movies where he wasn't a douche?

I mean, at least Tobey Spidey didn't get his girlfriend killed (after breaking a promise he made to a dying man at that)!

And no, the fact that Raimi Mary Jane was annoying compared to Webb Gwen isn't relevant either.

So in short, Let Tobey Spidey in! One shit movie shouldn't disqualify you, otherwise a lot of dudes would be kept out.
