i don't hate mcu spidey, even though i'm not a huge fan because he's basically miles dipped in white-boy paint, but i'd much rather have an adult peter trying to juggle his superheroism with the rest of his life.

i think it's one of the reasons i liked into the spiderverse so much, aside from giving miles a great origin movie, we also got an adult peter and it was great.

Yes!

Agreed with all of this. Adult Peter would have been much more interesting, and at least a new take rather than redoing the high school version for the third time.

This. I saw the MCU spidey movies, and they’re cute, but like you said. It’s miles dipped in white boy paint and I’m so over high school Peter and just want them to have him be established and during his best years as a high school teacher. It would also be a really fresh take compared to all the other superhero movies out there with Peter’s mundane adult life to contrast in addition to already being a veteran hero.

I feel the opposite way. Peter's youth is one of my favorite things about the character. That said, I'd probably be tired of it by now if I'd actually believed for a second that Tobey!Peter and Andrew!Peter were teenagers. I just found it so deeply unconvincing for both of them. They felt like twenty-somethings through and through, to me. Tom!Peter finally felt like an actual teenager, and I was so fucking delighted by that.

OTOH, I feel like the MCU is trying to milk that way too much. They should've let Peter mature more (in terms of character development) between Homecoming and FFH, and they definitely shouldn't have made him repeat junior year just so they can fit in another movie while he's still in high school (which I assume is why they had him repeat eleventh grade).
