Spider-Man-Homecoming: the hidden references of the film (winks, cameos and Easter Eggs)!<

He could not dream of a good welcome in the Marvel cinematographic universe!As we can see in Spider-Man: Homecoming, Peter Parker is entitled to a multitude of hidden references, winks for fans, cameos and other Eggs.Tony Stark, Happy Hogan, Pepper Potts and Steve Rogers are a bit of the tree hiding the forest.Here is a first harvest of discoveries, while waiting for yours!PS: Spider-Man's chronology: Homecoming is the subject of a separate article.

———————————————————

Vision of couple: this is one of the best anecdotes in the film.In Spider-Man: Homecoming, Jennifer Connelly lends her voice to Karen, the artificial intelligence of Spider-Man.It turns out that the Hulk star is married to ... Paul Bettany, the actor who lends his voice J.A.R.V.I.S., the artificial intelligence of Iron Man's armor!Like Bettany who has become the vision, will Connelly be entitled one day to a promotion by becoming the Android Jocaste?

Amadeus Cho: He's back!Martin Starr embodies Mr. Harrington, the teacher who takes students to the Academic Decathlon.However, in the incredible Hulk, Starr was already playing ... A ‘Computer Nerd’, a student from the Culver University who helped Bruce Banner.At the time, the novality of the film revealed that he was Amadeus Cho, a famous comic book character, friend of Hulk.The novality is not canon -and Dr. Helen Cho (Claudia Kim) of Avengers: the ultron era far too young to be his mother -we can deduce that this 'Computer Nerd' became a professor at theMidtown School of Science and Technology!Note that in the comics, a certain Roger Harrington was a principal of the high school of Peter Parker.

Howling Commandos: Since it is a question of the Midtown School of Science and Technology… Kenneth Choi embodies the main Morita.A name that fans of the Marvel cinematographic universe know well.In Captain America: First Avenger and agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Choi played Jim Morita, a member of Howling Commandos.It is most likely about his grandfather.When Peter Parker is summoned in the office of the school head, there are two black and white photographs: the first immortalizes the Howling Commandos and the second is a portrait of Jim Morita.

Stan Lee: Phew, The Man found the land firm after her cosmic cameo (the guards of the Galaxy Vol. 2)!It must be admitted that its appearance in Spider-Man: Homecoming is quite disappointing.Stan Lee plays a man who is disturbed by the superheroic activities of Spider-Man and who is arrested, from his window, by a neighbor.The writers could have found better!

Ultimate Spider-Man: A Spider-Man is good.Two Spider-Men, is it better?In Spider-Man: Homecoming, Donald Glover embodies the criminal Aaron Davis.In the Ultimate Universe, Davis is a super-viola known as the Prowler (the Ranger).And as in the film, he has a nephew ... which is called Miles Morales, alias Ultimate Spider-Man!Future hero of the animated film Spider-Man: The Animated Movie (December 14, 2018), Miles Morales is not ready to replace Peter Parker in ‘Live Action’.But he is somewhere in the Marvel cinematographic universe, dixit Kevin Feige ...

D.O.D.C.: Glory day for Damage Control!Shortly after New York events, Tony Stark joined forces with the American government to take control of the company specializing in cleaning superheroic battles.Now is the time to remember that Damage Control is visually cited in Iron Man (see the banner on the screen);And that a sitcom on this company was planned in 2015.

The friends first: Peter Parker's entourage has changed a lot compared to comics ... Jacob Batalon embodies a Ned Leeds that looks like Ganke Lee, the best friend of Miles Morales.Flash Thompson is no longer the Baraqué student who will become the Venom agent.Betty Brant has become a clone of Gwen Stacy.And there is of course Michelle… who is called MJ by her friends!For you, do these two letters necessarily mean that Zendaya is Mary Jane Watson?For Kevin Feige, the answer is already clear: "She is not Mary Jane Watson, she is not like this character."(So why this false twist? It's ridiculous!) Zendaya is therefore an GM, but not the GM.The Michele Gonzales hypothesis, the future roommate of Peter Parker, still holds up!

Parallelism: Spider-man confronted with False Avengers (Ultimate Spider-Man), Spider-Man which pushes the limits of the possible (The Amazing Spider-Man #33), the Iron Spider (Civil War)… the visual loans of Spider-Man: There are many comics homecoming.Let us stop for a moment on the third costume of the araign man.On the one hand, Tony Stark's influence begins to be invasive.Spider-Man is not Iron Man!Normally, he does not need armor and artificial intelligence.On the other hand, we must admit that facing Thanos ... A reinforced costume will not be refused!

Cult: for the pleasure of the ears, let us remember that Michael Giacchino re-orchestrated the famous theme of the Spider-Man series of 1967. This is the first thing we hear in Spider-Man: Homecoming, since it isFrom the song that accompanies the Marvel Studios logo.

I’m waiting for your comments, discoveries and questions now.And to conclude, do not forget to take a look at these three complementary pages: the two post-generic scenes deciphered;The reading guide;And of course, the criticism of the film ... To your keyboards!
