5 Reasons Why Spider-Man Cannot Leave The MCU

Mr. Stark, we don't feel so good.

The Disney-Sony standoff has ended Marvel's involvement in the upcoming "Spider-Man" films. Disney requested a 50/50 split in regards to money for the upcoming films, which was too much for Sony to give in to because the Spidey films are their most successful ones.

Being that Spider-Man is owned by Sony and Disney holds the rest of the MCU, he will be exiting the Marvel Universe, and we don't feel so good about it.

Making Spider-Man disappear from the MCU is going to create a pretty confusing storyline, being that he has been so heavily involved in the last few "Avengers" films. His life has changed, and the way he acts like a hero is extremely reliant on his relationships with the other Avengers.

It's a sad, sad day to see Spider-Man go, but I have a question for Sony: How are they going to continue his story outside of the MCU? Here's why Spider-Man cannot leave the MCU.

1. The whole reason Tony Stark agreed to time travel was to save Spider-Man.

After Thanos' snap made Spider-Man disappear, Tony was hung up on losing the kid, and it was one of the most crucial reasons why he decided to go back in time to try to save everyone. With Spider-Man gone from the MCU, it's like Tony's death was for nothing. Iron Man did not die for nothing.

2. Happy and Aunt May can't be together.

Happy is a part of the Marvel Universe and Aunt May is Spider-Man's aunt. If Spider-Man is taken out of the MCU, there's no way Aunt May and Happy can have a relationship. I was so happy about these two getting together.

3. Spider-Man's suit wouldn't exist without the help of Stark.

Stark gave Peter Parker a new suit in "Spider-Man: Homecoming", which he continued to wear in the following movies. This one is an upgrade from Peter's original homemade suit that didn't have all the gadgets and abilities that the Stark one holds. In "Spider-Man: Far From Home," Parker makes a new suit aboard the Stark Jet, using all of Tony's tools.

If he's taken out of the MCU, this new suit wouldn't exist. Peter will have to go back to his original homemade suit.

4. Peter won't have the help of EDITH.

EDITH, which stands for "Even Dead, I'm the Hero," is an artificial intelligence created by Stark that is wired into a pair of sunglasses. Tony leaves these for Peter Parker, which allows him to deploy drones to take out targets. EDITH was a big part of "Spider-Man: Far From Home," and because it's from the MCU, it wouldn't make sense if Peter got to keep it in the upcoming movies.

5. We'll be deprived of the Stark and Parker father/son relationship.

Whether Tony is dead or alive, Peter looks up to him wholeheartedly. If Spider-Man is taken from the MCU, are we supposed to forget everything that went on between these two? Because I don't think it's possible to forget that. I don't think it's possible for Spider-Man to not think about Tony Stark. He was a huge part of Peter's life.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
