Benedict Cumberbatch and Tom Holland in Avengers- Infinity War (2018)

Even Peter Parker Can’t Make It Through Airport Security Easily

You can totally bring bananas on a plane?

Imagine, if you will, going through the airport and the kid in front of you has a Spider-Man suit. Would you think he’s just a big fan or Spider-Man himself? Honestly, chances are that I’d be the one with the Spider-Man suit, so I can’t say for certain.

In a new scene for Spider-Man: Far From Home, we find Peter Parker standing in front of the airport security being questioned about his suit and, in true airport security fashion, the suit seems to be a normal set of pajamas. But a banana? You can’t bring that on a plane.

My main question about Spider-Man: Far From Home is: what is this movie going to be? From the trailer, it seems much lighter than Marvel movies have been as of recently. However, there’s a theory that Tony Stark is dead in the movie so that’s why he’s not in the trailer and that may dampen the mood a bit.

I have a new theory based on this scene, however. We know that Peter Parker vanished at the end of Avengers: Infinity War and there have been quotes from Kevin Feige that the film takes place after Avengers: Infinity War and, with that knowledge, what if Peter is dreaming of this adventure? What if, in whatever dimension the snapped Avengers have gone to, Peter Parker is dreaming of his friends and what they can be doing on their summer vacation that he now doesn’t get because of Thanos?

Feige would then, technically, not be lying to us, because the movie would have to take place after Infinity War for this theory to be true. And it would explain why Tony wasn’t there, because Tony didn’t get snapped away. But you know who did? Nick Fury and guess who is in Spider-Man: Far From Home?

It may be a little far-fetched but I think it is the only way to make sense of Kevin Feige openly confirming that the film comes after Infinity War when we don’t know how Peter isn’t dead. As far as we know, everyone that snapped is gone forever. So maybe these Disney+ shows and new movies take place in this other dimension where our heroes are alive and those heroes left behind can’t be in them because they are still alive in Thanos’s world. After all, we know that the Soul Stone creates a “pocket dimension” of its own, that keeps its occupants in a sort of idyll.

But anyway, Peter Parker can’t get through security, just like the rest of us, and it means that he is without a banana and straight up lying to a woman so she doesn’t know that he’s Spider-Man … even though she clearly doesn’t know who that is or care about it.

Spider-Man: Far From Home is flying into theaters this July 5th but we may get to see Peter in Avengers: Endgame? What’s Marvel doing to us all?
