Three things I loved in Spider-Man: Homecoming:
-
They no longer live in Forrest Hills. His stop is Court Square so they live in Long Island City, which is now more like Forrest Hills in the comics.
-
When Spidey goes to fight neighborhood crime, he doesn't really find much except someone stealing a bike. It was nice to see NYC not being depicted as a 1980s hellscape for once.
-
Unrelated to NYC, but Marissa Tomei is in her mid-50s, which is the actual age of Aunt May in the comics.

His apartment building was filmed in Sunnyside on 43rd street, so I would say he actually lives in Sunnyside, not LIC.

Oops. Sorry. But I still like the update from Forrest Hills.
